Isolated no more

At least 176 residents of Barangay Poblacion in Bakun, Benguet, assisted by heavy equipment provided by DJY Construction (Joseph Yubos) and Justino Fernandez, clear out the road that was buried following a landslide over the weekend during the onslaught of typhoon Ompong (international name: Mangkhut). The barangay was isolated for several days. With the clearing operations, the Ampusongan to Poblacion Proper Road along the Acop-Kapangan-Kibungan-Bakun Road has been made accessible.
