One of the cornerstones of the Jef-Bis tandemโs vision is addressing Batacโs growing housing needs. Architect Mar Opeรฑaโs inclusion signals a dedicated focus on developing sustainable and affordable housing projects for Batac residents. The team envisions well-planned housing communities designed not only to accommodate current demand but also to ensure resilience against flooding and other environmental challenges.
Mayor Nalupta emphasized this priority: โHousing is a basic need, and we need leaders who can plan and execute projects that will provide decent and affordable homes for our people. Mar Opeรฑaโs expertise in urban design and sustainable architecture is invaluable in making this vision a reality.โ
Engineering a Better Batac
Infrastructure and flood control also stand at the forefront of the tandemโs agenda. Councilor Bubot Crisostomoโs track record in public works makes him a natural leader in overseeing the cityโs infrastructure projects. His deep understanding of civil engineering ensures that roads, drainage systems, and public facilities are built to endure and serve the community effectively.
Flooding, a perennial problem for Batac, requires innovative and durable solutions. The tandemโs technical team aims to implement advanced flood management systems, including enhanced drainage networks, retention basins, and elevated pathways for flood-prone areas. With the combined expertise of these professionals, Batacโs citizens can expect lasting solutions to this issue.

The modernization of Batacโs communication systems and the elimination of unsightly and unsafe dangling wires are also high on the agenda. Engineer John Lei Ganironโs background in electronics and communications is key to this effort. Ganiron envisions a city where underground cabling and streamlined communication networks replace the current hazardous setup.
โTechnology and infrastructure must go hand-in-hand to support a growing city,โ Ganiron stated. โBy modernizing Batacโs communication systems, we can attract more investors, improve safety, and create a more organized urban environment.โ
Meanwhile, Rizal Castilloโs expertise will contribute to optimizing public utilities and ensuring that resources are allocated wisely. His financial background, paired with his technical knowledge, ensures that projects will be both effective and sustainable.

The decision to prioritize technical expertise over mere popularity highlights the serious intent of the Jef-Bis tandem. โWe are not just assembling a team to win an election; we are building a team that can deliver results,โ Nalupta emphasized. โThese individuals are experts in their fields, and their insights will drive Batacโs progress.โ
Vice mayoral candidate Bismark Quidang echoed this sentiment: โThis is governance grounded in professionalism. With this team, we can ensure that every policy and project is rooted in expertise, not guesswork. This is the leadership Batac deserves.โ

With their combined expertise and shared vision, the Jef-Bis tandem and their technical team offer Batac a chance to move toward a future of sustainable development, modernized infrastructure, and better living conditions for all.
