Former National Economic Development Authority (Neda)-Southern Mindanao director Aurora Pelayo and other officials from the City Government of Davao will grace the event.
RDC is the highest policy-making body in the region. It serves as the counterpart of the Neda at the national level.
It is the primary institution that coordinates and sets the direction of all economic and social development efforts and serves as a forum where local efforts can be related and integrated with national development activities
The RDC was created in answer to the need for a single regional planning body whose main concern is the overall socio-economic development of the region. (JGRS)
