ナガ市のレニ・ロブレド市長は5月27日、フェルディナンド・マルコス・ジュニア大統領がナガ市を高度都市化地域に指定する宣言書に署名したと発表した。
この宣言は、ナガ市議会が1月27日に決議第2026-078号を可決したことを受けて行われた。ナガ市はビコール地方で初めて、全国では34番目にこの地位を獲得した都市となる。
ロブレド市長は、この朗報が亡き夫ジェシー・ロブレド氏の誕生日に届いたと述べ、この分類の獲得に尽力したすべての人々に感謝の意を表した。
新たな地位獲得により、ナガ市はカマリネス・スル州政府から独立することになる。最終的な承認には、選挙委員会（COMELEC）が実施する住民投票が必要となる。
