Proof of peaceful management
By Alex Sanchez
Dr.Joel Capotulan,
M.D. has served Olutanga as its Municipal Mayor for 9 consecutive years with
distinction. He served his constituents honestly, sincerely and with the utmost
commitment of attaining the long sought development of Olutanga and of
improving the lives of its people.
Leadership of a town
executive is often measured by ones accomplishment in terms of project/program
implementation and how they impact on the people. Mayor Capotulan’s watch can
be characterized as the approach of the golden age in Olutanga with the various
projects he implemented. And the achievement that makes him taller than his
peers is his contribution to peace in the Island earning him the monicker of
Peace Maker Mayor.
As “love begets love”, respect begets
respect. These values Mayor Capotulan had held so dearly during his watch
enabled him to get the attention of people and their respect for him.
Dr.Capotulan is not the typical
person, one can easily sense to possess courage or boldness. And yet, his
refine manners and the confidence he exudes generates an impression of a strong
determination in the man to pursue and attain his goals.
