MANILA, Philippines – Quezon City mayor Joy Belmonte was given the Gabriela Silang of the First Order Award on Tuesday.

Belmonte was also declared as an “Adopted Daughter of Vigan City”, according to the City of Vigan Resolution No. 51 of 2022.

In the Quezon City Government’s official Facebook page, the award was conferred due to the swift aid that the Quezon City government gave to Vigan City after it was affected by a magnitude 7 earthquake.
