The Sangguniang Bayan of Gasan has issued a Resolution supporting the move of Marinduque First Saturday Movers, a Marinduque organization opposing the plan of the Provincial Government of Marinduque for a multi-million peso loan for infrastructure projects. Read. 

The Sanggunian maintains that the loan will aggravate the province’s financial situation and that it would jeopardize basic government services. It also maintains that the amount being loaned has no clear program of works, and “the timing of the loan is suspect”. Copies of the said Resolution No. 20012-118 have been sent to the relevant institutions for their information.


Marinduque First Saturday movers is a Manila-based organization composed of well-known professionals, businessmen, and former high-ranking government officials from Marinduque who have held national and local government positions. It sees itself as an organization committed to unifying Marinduquenos and friends of Marinduque, providing moral support and dissemination of information, among others, toward improving quality of life for the people of this island-province.
