Feature: Comval receives substantial dev't. funds

From the Philippine Information Agency (Oct 31): Feature: Comval receives substantial dev't. funds

Compostela Valley is receiving substantial funding assistance for health, agriculture and infrastructure development seen to bring people closer to government. Technical Working Team head Manolo Serafin Cayme of the Provincial Special Projects Management Committee revealed that funds are coming from the Office of Presidential Assistant on the Peace Process (OPAPP), Mindanao Rural Development Program (MRDP), Davao Integrated Development Program (DIDP) and from European development assistance sources.... Cayme noted the improvement of lives in upland barangay Panansalan in Compostela town, and how residents had changed the way they regarded the government after having seen and benefited from the P15 million infrastructure (with agro-forestry component) projects funded by OPAPP through the Payapa at Masaganang Pamayanan (Peaceful and Resilient Communities) known as Pamana.... Having turned over the Panansalan road project to the LGU, OPAPP again allocated to the provincial government in June this year a P28-million fund for road rehabilitation, with bridge construction component, intended for the towns of Monkayo and Montevista to provide easy access to the towns’ far-flung areas.
