P76M allocated for water system project in Marawi
A WATER system project in Marawi City with a P76 million budget is under way through the Department of the Interior and Local Government’s (DILG) Sagana at Ligtas na Tubig para sa Lahat (Salintubig) program. DILG OIC-Secretary Eduardo M. Año, in a statement on Aug. 2, said the system will provide water supply to more than 2,156 households upon completion by December 2019. The Salintubig project covers seven priority barangays: Sagonsongan, Mipaga, Emie Punod, Basak Malutlut, East Basak, Poblacion, and Moriatao Loksadato. The Salintubig program is part of the P10-billion Marawi rehabilitation program under the 2018 General Appropriations Act. A tripartite agreement has been signed between the DILG Region 10, DILG Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao, and Marawi City government for the implementation arrangements.
