From the Philippine News Agency (Aug 27): DavOr town receives P2.3M worth of PAMANA projects

Three barangays from the municipality of Tarragona, Davao Oriental received P2.3 million worth of rubber production enterprises from the Department of Agriculture (DA) 11, Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process (OPAPP) and the provincial government through Payapa at Masaganang Pamayanan (PAMANA) on Thursday.

The beneficiaries were Ompao Muslim-Christian Cooperative (OMCC), Tomoaong United Lumad Association for Development (TULAD) and Ugbo Tubaon Mandaya Planters Association (UTMPA).

The beneficiaries received rubber seedlings, organic fertilizers, organic foliar fertilizers, shovel and lagaraw.

DA regional director Remelyn Recoter in her message delivered by Dr. Rafael Mercado, assistant regional director for research and regulatory, told the beneficiaries to take good care of the project granted to them.

A total of 200 hectare land from the three beneficiaries will be utilized for the rubber production project.

Governor Corazon Malanyaon personally thanked DA and OPPAP for helping her constituents. She also told the beneficiaries to take good care of the project.

“You are very lucky to be chosen as the recipient of this project. I hope you will take good care of it,” Malanyaon said.

PAMANA or Peaceful and Resilient Communities project is a national government’s peace and development framework for empowering conflict-affected areas in the country.

It is supported by concerned government line agencies, local government units (LGUs) and civil society groups. It follows a convergence strategy to close the gaps in development and bring progress to conflict-affected areas, where they are needed the most. It also ensures that communities benefit from improved delivery of basic social services and are served by a responsive, transparent and accountable government.
