I subscribe to this line that was taught when
I was with the Jaycees.

“Service to humanity
is the best work of life.”

And we are very fortunate and lucky to be
in a position where we are serving
our fellow Dagupeños.

I owe a lot of what I have
accomplished in life to all the
teachers I’ve had throughout my entire career – from Dagupan, to Manila, to US, to law school.

As a student
— and I would like to see myself still as a student —

I continue to want to learn
as much as I can.

The concept of governance
to my mind is simple

– just give it your best, and that means to do things with sincerity, integrity, and humility. In the process of doing your job, accept that some people may like you and appreciate what you do; some people may not and continue to be critical.

Regardless, as a public servant, you have to serve them all, because that is the mandate.

MAYOR BRIAN C. LIM

I have never used social media
to put anyone or anything down.

Never. I do not even engage in comments even with political issues. I never even used social media to put down any of my political adversaries or opponents because I made it upon myself a rule that if I were to use social media as a platform, it should be for something positive.

MAYOR BRIAN C. LIM

To be honest, if people have unreasonable
expectations, like dapat ma-resolve ang baha in one day, or
two days, hindi ko na po pinag-aaksayahan ng panahon, kasi
nga that’s unreasonable. And how can you debate with
people who have unreasonable expectations?

AS LONG AS I’M HERE,

I will do my best to fight the flood through a well-thought out,
intelligent and reasonable plan and a concrete solution.
HINDI IYONG BARA-BARA.
