According to Kalinga Tambayan, our kailiyans in Tabuk will be voting this coming Saturday (June 23) on whether they would like their town to be converted into a city. We think it is unlikely that the Tabuk voters will reject cityhood given the benefits if their town becomes a city. So what are those benefits? A greater share in the Internal Revenue Allotment and iTabuks having more say in their local governance. Any disadvantages? None that we can think of.
Tabuk will be the second city in the Cordilleras if its voters approve the cityhood law. It is currently classified as a first class municipality.
