Chairperson Amoguis accepts the challenge to lead the Coop officials as he emphasizes the acronym “SAKTO” – Sigurado ang serbisyo, Aktibo ug ma-asikaso, Kugihan ug may katakus, Tinud-anay kung mo-trabaho, Ok kayo nga inyo kong giboto. He promises to abide with the cooperative principles as he serves Tagum Cooperative.

The Board of Directors has also appointed qualified members of the Conciliation Mediation Committee (CMC) and the Ethics Committee:

Chairperson Amoguis also stresses the importance of the expansion of branches and the continuous improvement of products and services as it will help TC in reaching more members. He also believes in the development of staff as it will reflect on the effectiveness of the services offered. “Let us join hand and hand in achieving the goals and be united during the unavoidable tough roads that we face along the way,” Amoguis positively notes.

The management is also actively doing their part in attaining the targets set for TC. Just last year TC opens its new Automated Teller Machines (ATM) in Nabunturan branch and this year another one Mintal branch. In addition to the ATMs is the release of the new EMV Cards for a safer and fraudulent-free transaction for all the members. The old Pinoy Coop ATM cards will no longer be used by June 2018. A new family will also be added to TC family this 2018 as its General Santos City Branch will soon open.
