Pagpasabot Bahin sa Reklamo sa Bugas

Base sa pag validate ug sa mga litrato nga atong makita, dili lagum o brown ang kolor sa bugas. Sa atong actual usab nga pag-check sa bugas nga gina reklamo dili kini baho.

Apan tungod kay adunay reklamo, padayon nato kini nga gi-imbestigahan ug gi-validate aron mahibal-an ang tinuod nga nahitabo. Kung mapamatud-an nga adunay sayop o tinuyo nga paghatag og bakak nga impormasyon, atong tan-awon ang angay nga legal nga aksyon.

ESCALANTE CITY, Negros Occidental — The Department of Social Welfare and Development Negros Island Region (DSWD NIR), through the PAMANA Peace and Development Program (PDP), formally turned over 14 community road improvement subprojects worth ₱17,054,374.80 to the City of Escalante during a ceremonial mass turnover, reinforcing the government’s commitment to peacebuilding and inclusive development in conflict-vulnerable areas.

The subprojects were implemented in 14 barangays identified as conflict-vulnerable areas: Alimango, Binaguiohan, Buenavista, Dian-ay, Japitan, Langub, Libertad, Mabini, Malasibog, Paitan, Pinapugasan, Rizal, Udtongan, and Washington. All subprojects focused on the improvement of community roads to enhance access to basic services, improve mobility, and support local economic activities.

A total of 2,845 households are expected to directly benefit from the completed road projects, which aim to strengthen community resilience, promote social cohesion, and address development gaps in geographically isolated and conflict-affected communities.

The ceremonial turnover was led by DSWD Undersecretary for the PAMANA Peace and Development Group Alan Tanjusay, alongside DSWD NIR Regional Director Arwin O. Razo. Also present were PAMANA PDP PDO III Dan Donald Candare and officials of the Escalante City local government unit headed by Mayor Melecio J. Yap Jr. and Vice Mayor Rogelio A. Prietos.

The activity forms part of DSWD NIR’s continuing implementation of the PAMANA Peace and Development Program, reflecting the agency’s dedication to reaching communities in identified conflict-vulnerable areas and working closely with local government units to respond to their development needs.
