Mr. Temporary Presiding Officer, my esteemed colleagues in this august council, ladies and gentlemen:
Today, I rise on a matter of personal and public importance.
As the term of office entrusted to me by our beloved constituents comes to a closeโand with the results of the most recent elections now firmly behind usโ ๐ ๐๐๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ฏ๐ถ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐, ๐ฏ๐๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐๐๐ฑ๐ฒ. ๐ก๐ผ๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ด๐ฟ๐ฒ๐, ๐ฏ๐๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ. ๐๐ป๐ฑ ๐ป๐ผ๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐, ๐ฏ๐๐ ๐๐ถ๐๐ต ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฝ ๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ณ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐๐๐ป๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ผ ๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐บ๐๐ป๐ถ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ฝ๐ฎ๐น๐ถ๐๐.

These past 3 years have been filled with challenges, debates, decisions, and, most importantly, learning. Every ordinance passed, every resolution approved, and every Barangay visited reminded me of the true meaning of public serviceโserving not for recognition, but for impact.
Let me also acknowledge the results of the recent election. ๐ป๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐, ๐๐๐
