Bulacan Governor Daniel R. Fernando has earmarked almost P100 million worth of infrastructure projects for his hometown in Barangay Tabang, Guiguinto in the province since 2020. Provincial Engineer’s Office (PEO) head Engineer Glenn D. Reyes said Fernando allocated P60,436,206.49 for the rehabilitation and improvement of roads in Barangays Tabang and Ilang-ilang. The governor also earmarked P14,863,041.10 to the barangay for the construction of the multipurpose building, daycare, and evacuation center in Purok 1; P7,956,997.35 for the supply and installation of solar street lights along Guiguinto Old Road; and P15 million for the asphalting of other public roads. Additionally, P7,369,186.30 was allotted for the construction of the Home Economics (H.E.) Building in Tabang Elementary School in 2021.

In coordination with Damayang Filipino Movement, Inc., Fernando was also able to install more than 100 street lights and conduct beautification projects along the National Irrigation Administration (NIA) Road in Brgy. Tabang. Through the assistance and coordination of the past president of The Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Mason of the Philippines, Engineer Jun Gatchalian and his team, Fernando has conducted improvement and asphalting of other roads in the village. Fernando clarified that the awarding of projects was based on the needs of the barangay and not on favoritism. “Pantay po ang pagtingin natin sa lahat ng mga barangay sa ating lalawigan. Lahat ng idinudulog sa atin na mga proyekto ay sinisikap nating tugunan. Bawat programang ating isinasagawa ay para sa ikagiginhawa ng buhay ng ating mga kalalawigang Bulakenyo,” (We look at all barangays in the province equally. We try to implement the projects that they requested from us. Each project is aimed at improving the lives of our people)," the governor said. The governor also thanked the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) for responding to the request of his constituents concerning its drainage system and called on it to fast-track the ongoing projects in the province, especially along McArthur Highway.
