Today, June 23, 2007, citizens of Tabuk casted their votes (in a plebiscite) whether they give a nod on the proposal to convert the municipality of Tabuk into a component city or reject it. It is simply a matter of "YES" or "NO" vote. The result of the counting of votes is yet to be known maybe tomorrow.
I observed this morning at the Bulanao Central School, in all the precincts, that it seems only few voters were coming to cast their respective votes unlike the recently held May 14 national and local elections although it had still a low voters turn-out. I guess it's the same in other places.
After all the busy weeks of campaigning for "Yes", I believe "Yes" votes are gonna win. If that happens, beginning 2008 Tabuk will have its Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA) increase four-folds according to estimates - to more or less 300 million. Whew! We expect that the ensuing years we will see the construction sector busy in all places of Tabuk city.
Personally however our agricultural lands, our whole green lands, must be preserved against the onslaught of rapid urbanization. That urbanization must not be equated with the destruction of our rice fields, forest, and environment. This is a matter policy of consideration.
