IMMEDIATE INTERVENTION. To facilitate immediate earthquake intervention for the recently hard-hit municipality of Padada and other municipalities in Davao del Sur, MinDA Secretary Emmanuel Piñol met with Padada Municipal Mayor Pedro Caminero Jr. and Senator Ronald “Bato” Dela Rosa today.
MinDA will submit a Memorandum to the Office of the President requesting for an allocation of special emergency fund. This fund will be utilized for the fast repair, renovation, and construction of damaged government buildings, facilities, and other recovery needs of the affected areas. This request will be hand over to President Rodrigo Duterte during his visit in Cotabato City on Monday.
Secretary Piñol requested Senator Dela Rosa to support this intervention through an immediate legislative statement and resolution in the House of Senate.
Per request of Mayor Caminero, the Secretary will also seek assistance from DENR Secretary Roy Cimatu to provide the LGUs with confiscated logs that can be used to establish temporary shelters and centers. #RemainStrongDavaodelSur #IntegratingMinDAnao
