Cebu City Mayor Nestor Archival is urging City Hall employees to keep this year’s Christmas celebrations simple and mindful, as the city continues to prioritize recovery and rehabilitation efforts.
While departments are allowed to hold small, office-based gatherings, Mayor Archival emphasized that these should remain modest and respectful of the challenges many residents are currently facing. He reminded teams to focus on practicality and avoid unnecessary spending during the holiday season.
The call reflects the city’s commitment to balancing the festive spirit with responsible stewardship of resources, ensuring that celebrations do not overshadow ongoing recovery initiatives.
Through this, Cebu City employees can still share the joy of the season while demonstrating solidarity and sensitivity toward the community’s needs.
