37. KABISIG GOVERNMENT EXPO
(A Series of Information Exhibits, Trade and Jobs Fair Nationwide)
PROPONENT: KABISIG MINDANAO FOUNDATION, INC.
RATIONALE:
Philippine government agencies and instrumentalities have many projects and programs aimed at uplifting the
welfare of society. However, their accomplishments hardly reach the public because information about them is
not disseminated adequately and effectively. Thus, there is a need to spread the good news about government
through a dynamic and consistent campaign to inform the public about it, so it can become aware of how
government addresses its concerns.
Kabisig Mindanao Foundation is an NGO whose main objective is to create public awareness of government
accomplishments through information exhibits. Since its first one-stop information fair in 1998 conducted in
Davao City and the last conducted in the same city in 2007, it was observed that many viewers did not have or
did not have enough knowledge of government profiles, service facilities, programs and accomplishments. Thus,
there is a need to bridge the gap between what government does and what the people know.
The inadequacy of knowledge or the lack of it can easily lead the public to become misinformed and form
negative impressions of government. Kabisig, then, has taken upon itself the task of helping government spread
the good news about it and President Benigno S. Aquino III program of good governance through another one-
stop information exhibit, the Kabisig Government Expo (A Series of Information Exhibits, Trade and Jobs Fair),
which will be held nationwide in various regional capitals. The theme of the exhibit is “ Kapit-bisig sa Matuwid
na Daan: Gabay sa Kaunlaran”. For the National Capital Region this will be held in various SM Supermalls.

38. VISION:
Kabisig as a committed partner in information dissemination on government profiles, service facilities, projects,
programs and accomplishments.
MISSION:
To help bring and promote government closer to the people and make the public aware of and appreciative of
government.
OTHER OBJECTIVES:
1.) To showcase government office profiles, service facilities, policies, programs, projects, products and
accomplishments
2.) To promote the President Aquino’s program of good governance through the Kabisig spirit of
partnership and cooperation
3.) To provide opportunities for local government units to promote their investment and tourism potentials for
development
4.) To conduct seminars/fora and provide brochures on different services and programs
5.) To provide opportunities for job seekers
TARGET PARTICIPANTS:
1.) All government line departments and attached agencies
2.) Government-owned and controlled corporations and state universities
3.) Government foreign-assisted programs
4.) Local government units (towns, cities and provinces)
EXPECTED OUTPUTS:
1.) More Filipinos will be informed and appreciative of government programs and accomplishments
2.) Local government units will be able to promote and market their respective areas as investment and
tourism destinations
3.) Job seekers will find jobs through the cooperation of DoLE
AUTHORITY: Presidential Memorandum Circular No. 12 .

55. KABISIG ANTHEM
KAPIT-BISIG, MAGTULUNGAN TAYO
Kapit-bisig sa kaunlaran, isang bansa, isang diwa
Magtulungan tayo’t magsumikap nang makamtan ang adhikain
Kaya natin kung magkaisa sa hirap man o ginhawa
Ang isa ay para sa lahat, ang lahat ay para sa isa.
Kapit-bisig tayo, abutin ang mithing layon
Maka-Diyos, maka-kalikasan, maka-tao’t maka-bansa
Kapit-bisig tayo, abutin ang mithing layon
Angkinin ang kinabukasan para sa inang bayan.
Kapit-bisig, magtulungan, magmahalan tayo
Kapit-bisig, Pilipino, magmahalan tayo.
