READ: Fiesta Message of Mayor Katrina Mae Suan
"Today is a joyful and meaningful day for our beloved town. As we gather to celebrate the feast of Señor Santiago, our patron saint, we are reminded of who we are as Allenians—faithful, resilient, and united by our love for our culture, community, and traditions.
This celebration is especially close to my heart because it is my very first fiesta as your Municipal Mayor. As someone who grew up here, this moment is deeply personal to me. I stand before you not just as your mayor, but as a fellow Allenian—someone who shares your hopes, your struggles, and your dreams for a better tomorrow.
This year’s fiesta is not just a celebration—it is a declaration of unity, pride, and service. I would like to thank everyone who participated in the contests, activities, and events that made this celebration vibrant, colorful, and alive. Your energy and support truly brought this fiesta to life.
I also extend my sincerest gratitude to all our local departments, partner agencies, and organizations from both the public and private sectors who joined us in the grand parade and throughout the celebration. Your presence and partnership are a powerful reminder that governance is a shared responsibility, and that when we move as one, we go farther.
As your Mayor, I am committed to leading Allen through my five pillars of good governance: improving access to quality social services, empowering our local economy, building resilient and livable infrastructure, protecting our environment while taking climate action, and establishing a new era of honest, effective, and people-centered leadership.
These pillars are more than plans—they are my commitment to serve you with matino, magaling, at mahusay na pamamahala.
Let us carry the spirit of the fiesta beyond today. Let us move forward with joy in our hearts, unity in our actions, and faith in one another. Together, let us build a stronger, brighter, and more compassionate Allen.
Padayon, Allen! Viva Señor Santiago! Viva Allen Fiesta 2025!"
