Former mayor says city has come a long way
A former mayor who moved here when the population was just 650 said the city has come a long way since its rough and tumble days when bars and cattle rustling prevailed.
The mayor of this city said they deserve to be a city, too, amidst the hullabaloo about older cities complaining they are getting less of their internal revenue allotments as various municipalities, including Mati, have been successful in their bid to become cities.
