Governor Josephine “Nene” Ramirez-Sato announced the successful 60th anniversary of the province recently.
During the opening rites, Governor Sato said that the province have gone a long way - from a sleepy to a vibrant province now known not only in the Philippines but throughout the world. This can be attributed to the dynamic leadership of its governor and the city council.
Today, Occidental Mindoro is known as the primary source of rice, salt, fish, vegetables, and other commodities for Metro Manila and nearby provinces.
Mindorenos enjoyed the activities during the celebration such as: the grand motorcade, basketball tournament, street dancing competition, rodeo, talentadong Mindoreno, search for Binibining Turismo and Ginoong agrikultura, variety shows, and the grand fireworks display.
Sixty balloons were also released during the opening rites symbolizing the years the province has been in existence. One of the balloons contains a note and whoever returns this to the provincial capitol will receive P 10,000.00.
