Ang pulitiko nananalo dahil sa dami ng boboto sa kanya, kung meron mang gusto magsagawa ng pagbabago kailangan matapos nya ito bago umabot sa next election, otherwise ung kalaban nya gamitin un para maging issue laban sa kanya at i-capitalize ng kalaban na pag sha ang binoto hindi paalisin ang mga squatter.

It's the news to date,order from the executive dept.for the relocation of these waterways dweller,but local officials are asking the DPWH people to implement it after the Barangay election,see. what kind of people are fooling us tax payers.as cito Beltran stated,we the people your BOSS,are paying your salaries and pork barrel,you have your share and stop making excuses why flooding persist,just do your job by serving us your BOSS with utmost sincerity,just like in a commercial,JUST DO IT......:thumbdown::hit:

Just came from espanya, i saw some styrofoam blocks scattered around the drainage in almost every corner.

Also the mmda has a flood outpost at the pnr station there.

Ang tanong ko diyan...bakit ngayon lang?

Gov?t offers P18K per estero family | Inquirer News

The government is offering P18,000 to each of the 20,000 families of informal settlers living along waterways in Metro Manila so they can rent decent and safe homes elsewhere for 12 months while officials are looking for a place to resettle them permanently.

But the NGO Urban Poor Associates (UPA) sees the government offer—its monthly equivalent of P1,500 is just enough to rent a room in a squatter colony—as a “band-aid solution” to the housing problem.

“We did some pencil-pushing. It’s cheaper if we give them P18,000 to go to a safe place,” Interior Undersecretary Francisco Fernandez, the official in charge of relocating 100,000 families in the metropolis out of danger areas, said in an interview by phone.

Taena, sa atin galing yang pera na yan. Nakakainis. Magsquat na rin kaya ako?

^WTF!!! They'll get the 18K and they will not move... or at the most, tatawid lang sila sa kabila. Gastos yung 18K sa cellphone at alak.

Dapat lagyan sila ng tatoo (Barcode or QR code) sa forehead as proof na na claim na yung 18k php.
Lahat ng family members dapat meron nung code na yon para hindi pwedeng mag double/triple/quadruple claim.
