DILG8 HOMEPAGE
| 
Welcome to the website of the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Region 8. This is our virtual participation in the “Biyaheng Pinoy: Tapat na Palakad, Bayang Maunlad,” the program celebrating the 20th anniversary of local autonomy.
Aside from getting information about local governments in Eastern Visayas, you can find relevant data about our programs and services.
In line with Secretary Jesse Robredo’s call for more transparency, accountability and performance, we are posting our budget, status of funds and other related information. LGUs may also submit soft copies of pertinent financial documents for posting to comply with the Full Disclosure Policy.
Aware that much information on local governance has been uploaded in the web, we have provided convenient links to our main DILG office, Office of the President, Local Government Academy and other places that may interest you.
As you browse through this website, feel free to send in your questions and suggestions so we could further develop our offerings, and help make our frontline services more user-friendly.
We hope you will join us in making our institutions and processes work to achieve real development in the communities.
In the way that the people in Leyte, Samar and Biliran welcome their guests, we say, “Uswag!” (Welcome!).
