The 2nd eGov Awards for LGU

A Joint Project of DILG and NICP

The Concept Behind The Logo

The bright orange ray is from the NICP logo which is an upward shape of a fiber optic which projects the platform capabilities of the confederation in displaying the cities dependable facilities, voice/non voice solutions, safety/security advantage, fast digital data transmission, and unlimited space for growth and development in communication technology. The “sun” is from the DILG seal which shows Filipinos holding hands around the yellow circle.
