Inquirer: What’s happening in Nueva Ecija town

“I never thought that the small things that we do in our small town—the things that the ‘great’ leaders of our country take for granted—will be magnified, felt and noticed here in Boston today,” Mayor Sonia Lorenzo of San Isidro in Nueva Ecija said in her presentation on governance and democratic leadership at a KSG conference last week.
