The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Region VI marked a leadership transition as Regional Director Rachel N. Nufable retired after 35 years of public service, passing the torch to Officer-in-Charge Regional Director Ma. Dinda Tamayo.
The symbolic handover ceremony, held Aug. 8, 2025, at the DTI Region VI office, featured the ceremonial passing of the “map” — a representation of the leadership responsibilities now entrusted to Tamayo, who previously served as provincial director of DTI Iloilo.
Nufable’s retirement closes more than three decades of service marked by initiatives that fostered economic growth and development across Western Visayas.
Tamayo brings extensive experience in regional economic development, having led numerous trade promotion and business development initiatives during her tenure in Iloilo.
Her appointment ensures continuity in the department’s ongoing programs and strategic objectives.
OIC-Assistant Regional Director Mutya Eusores will continue in her current role, providing support and stability during the leadership transition.
Under Tamayo’s leadership, DTI Region VI aims to build on existing programs while pursuing innovative approaches to strengthen the region’s competitive position in domestic and international markets.
The transition reflects the department’s commitment to preserving institutional knowledge while introducing fresh perspectives to address emerging challenges and opportunities in trade and industry.
