Mayors for Good Governance (M4GG) is a coalition of Philippine local chief executives formed in 2023 to push for accountability, transparency, and integrity in government. 

It was established by mayors across the country, with its founding convenors including Baguio City Mayor Benjamin Magalong, Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte, Marikina City Mayor Marcelino Teodoro, Dumaguete City Mayor Felipe Remollo, Isabela City (Basilan) Mayor Sitti Djalia Hataman, and Kauswagan (Lanao del Norte) Mayor Rommel Arnado. Later on, Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto joined as a co-convenor.

The alliance describes itself as non-partisan and committed to ensuring that government projects and policies are rooted in the realities of communities. 

Its formation brought together more than 100 mayors nationwide who signed a manifesto for good governance. 

The movement stresses the role of mayors as front-line leaders, directly accountable to their constituents and positioned to understand local needs.

On August 27, 2025, the group released a statement welcoming President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.’s call to require approval from local government units before the implementation of national government-funded projects.

In its statement, M4GG said the new policy recognizes the mandate of local leaders, who are closest to the daily realities of communities. 

The group emphasized that for too long, projects had been planned and imposed without proper consultation, often resulting in wasted resources, misplaced priorities, and corruption.

The alliance added that requiring LGU approval affirms that public funds must be used responsibly and based on genuine consultation. 

It also called on national agencies, particularly the Department of Public Works and Highways, as well as legislators, to establish mechanisms that guarantee concurrence, transparency, and accountability. 

M4GG also noted that this ensures “every peso spent truly serves our people.”

M4GG continues to position itself as a significant voice in governance reforms, advocating for policies that strengthen local governments and safeguard public resources.
