Mayor Pama, in his letter to Provincial Governor Maria Angelica Rosedell M. Amante, showed his keen interest of using the system in the Municipality of Barobo for dog registration and dog rabies vaccination record keeping.

Reports generated from the system will be used by the lgu as basis to come up with an informed decision-making of the local rabies program. Management Information System (MIS) Division of the Provincial Governor’s Office, installed the system. While Dr. Joseph P.
