Business Counselor (BC) Rolynda N. Quimora of Negosyo Center Lucena City and Business Counselor Carl Kenneth A. Balauag of Negosyo Center Agdangan conducted a coordination meeting with the four identified barangays for the additional runs of the Livelihood Seeding Program-Negosyo Serbisyo sa Barangay (LSP-NSB).

Through partnerships, the LSP-NSB allows a wider reach of business development assistance by bringing government services closer to the people through partnerships between local government units (LGUs) and the DTI. Through the Barangay Development Councils (BDCs), the DTI will help capacitate barangay personnel to provide basic business advisory or information dissemination services to MSMEs in the locality. Each barangay will identify five beneficiaries who will receive livelihood kits amounting to P8,000 that contain goods and items that could help them restore and improve their businesses.

Barangays 6 (Pob.), Cotta, Mayao Crossing, and Gulang-gulang were the four identified barangays for the additional runs of LSP-NSB. The target implementation of the said DTI program is the first quarter of 2022.♦
