Speaker Martin Romualdez is shown with Human Settlements and Urban Development Secretary Jose Rizalino Acusar and other officials during the inspection of an ongoing housing project under the Pambansang Pabahay para sa Pilipino Program in San Mateo, Rizal on Tuesday.
In a statement, DHSUD Secretary Jose Rizalino Acuzar welcomed Romualdez’s commitment, stressing that congressional support, particularly on funding, is vital to the sustainability and success of the 4PH Program even beyond the current administration. “I am hoping that these measures seeking to institutionalize the Pambansang Pabahay will soon be passed into law,” Acuzar said.
“This is in line with the vision of the President – decent housing for Filipinos. A community where they can live safely, peacefully and with dignity,” he added.?The 4PH project in San Mateo aims to construct 4,000 condominium-type housing units.
