Mayor Benjamin Magalong ratified city council resolution no. 727, series of 2023, expressing the
city’s deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family of the late retired Police General Camilo Pancratius ‘Pikoy’ Pascua Cascolan, former Philippine National Police (PNP) Chief and Department of Health (DOH) Undersecretary who passed away on November 24, this year, at age 59.

We are grateful for his contributions and service to the country. His memory will remain in the hearts and minds of the people of the city,” it stated.
