Economic Development and Investment Promotion Office (BEDIPO) in the Province of Bohol, led by
Market Specialist Ligaya Astronomo-Castillo, visited Jagna on June 7, 2023 for a Micro, Small, and
Medium-sized Enterprises (MSME) exposure. The visit aimed to align BEDIPO’s goals with the
present administration’s 2024 Strategic Roadmap. The group was cordially welcomed by Vice Mayor

promotional video of the province. BEDIPO intends to conduct trainings for our MSMEs this 3rd
Quarter of 2023. It’s a great source of pride for all Jagnaanons that under the administration of Mayor
Joseph Rañola, Jagna has become a role model for tourism in the whole province of Bohol.
