From the Philippine News Agency (Dec 2): 4 Basilan municipalities to receive P40-M PAMANA projects

Basilan Gov. Jum Akbar has recently announced that four municipalities in the province are set to receive P40 million worth of the PAyapa at MAsaganang PamayaNAn-Department of Interior and Local Government(PAMANA)-DILG projects. Akbar said this came about as the Provincial Peace and Order Council (PPOC) last week has approved and endorsed the project proposals submitted to the PAMANA-DILG Funds. Akbar, as the governor, chairs the PPOC. Akbar said that under the law, the PPOC is tasked to assist in the approval and implementation of the PAMANA projects which cover Lantawan, Maluso, Tipo-Tipo, and Tuburan in the aggregate amount of P40 million.

 The provincial office of DILG has already received a notice of cash allocation for the implementation of the project, she said. The funds under the PAMANA-DILG Fund for CY-2012 were already released and downloaded to the DILG Regional Office-9, she added. The projects to be implemented in the four areas are as follows: construction of public market building (P5 million), water supply development (P 3 million), and provision of rubber nursery (P 2 million) in Lantawan; concreting of 500 linear meters road (P 7.5 million), and provision of fish cage livelihood project (P 2.5 million) in Maluso; and, provision of organic farming livelihood (P 7 million), and construction of box culvert for four locations (P 3-M) in Tuburan. The Municipality of Tipo-Tipo will have P 10 million-worth of farm-to-market road projects with a P 1.1 million counterpart from the municipal government. The farm-to-market roads projects are: rehabilitation of three kilometers (km) Badja-Bangcuang farm-to-market road; 2.5-km Lagayas-Limpoupas road; three-km Lagayas-Bohetambak road; and, 2.5-km Tipo-Tipo proper-Sitio Sumenne Tarbadeko road.

The implementation of PAMANA projects is the national government’s program and framework for peace and development. It is implemented in areas affected by conflict and communities covered by existing peace agreements.
