The duly elected Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan officials of the Municipality of Lasam have taken their Oaths of Office at the Natalged a Lasam Arena in two separate occasions.
Last November 13, 2023, Mayor Dante Dexter A. Agatep administered the oath-taking of the 30 Punong Barangays and 210 Barangay Kagawads in the presence of all members of the Sangguniang Bayan.

The Punong Barangays will gather next week for the election of the Liga ng mga Barangay President, who will seat as an Ex-officio member of the Sangguniang Bayan.

SANGGUNIANG KABATAAN
As for the Sangguniang Kabataan, all duly elected SK Chairpersons and SK Kagawads were required to undertake a mandatory training before they could take their oath of office.
The mandatory training was organized by MLGO and Local Youth Development offices wherein speakers took turns in orienting the young SK officials on the requisites of being public servants.
