More Kalahi CIDSS projects turned-over to barangays

By Bernadine Astillero-Gabawan

BAYOG, Zamboanga del Sur - More projects under the  Kalahi-CIDSS Makamasang Tugon were turned-over to  five barangays of  Bayog, Zamboanga del Sur last week.
Said projects were answers to the “felt needs” of the barangay folks since they were the ones identifying them.

Projects implemented were 1.74-kilometer road concreting at Barangay Lamare, 226-meter sectional road concreting on critical slope at Barangay Supon, 550-meter concreting of critical slope at Barangay Matun-og, 220-meter sectional road concreting at Barangay Kanipaan, and 120-meter concreting on critical slope at Barangay Camp Blessing.

The turnover ceremonies were attended by Mayor Leonardo L. Babasa, Jr. together with municipal councilors Celso Matias and Saturnino Amor, and the barangay chairmen.

“With these projects, farm products of the residents will have an easy access to market,” said Mayor Babasa.

On the other hand, two other projects were turned-over last Jan. 31, a water system (gravity type) and a health center for Barangays Damit and Dipili, respectively. (PIA9)
