They are part of the first “batch” of acting regional heads to be installed from this year until 2023 to lead a total of 265 provincial, regency and municipal administrations for the interim until 2024. The government has been urged to strengthen its monitoring and evaluation to ensure that acting regional heads not only perform well in their appointed roles, but also remain neutral during the general elections as well as the simultaneous regional head elections that take place across the nation in 2024.
