Two Payapa at Masaganang Pamayanan (PAMANA) projects of the Office of the Presidential Adviser on the Peace Process (OPPAP) were formally inaugurated inPalawan this week.
The first was the turnover ceremony of a multi-purpose gym in the southern Palawan town ofAborlan in Barangay Magsaysay, which cost P 1.8 million to construct.
The next was a 2-kilometer farm-to-market road at Sitio Bukid-Bukid, Barangay Rio Tuba, Bataraza.
The event was witnessed by Director Yusop A. Paraji of the Bangsamoro Office, OPPAP on February 18 with Aborlan Vice Mayor Ariston Madeja, and Frank Paduga, officer-in-charge of the Provincial Planning and Development Office (PPDO).
In a message Thursday, Paraji expressed gratitude to the warm welcome he received from the residents and local government officials of Aborlan and Bataraza, whose support is important to the realization of the projects.
“If there is no support like this from the LGU, and the people of Aborlan and Bataraza, these projects will not be completed,” Paraji said, adding he will study the possibility of adding more for beneficiaries inPalawan .
Paduga, representing Governor Jose Alvarez, also thanked the OPPAP for choosingPalawan as recipient of the two projects of PAMANA.
He told Paraji that the governor fully supports any similar project of the OPPAP, and the provincial government is willing to share in the funding for community development.
Aside from the farm-to-market road in Bataraza, the OPPAP also inaugurated two classrooms in Barangay Sapa costing P2.4 million.
Sapa barangay chairman Julhane Aslie also thanked OPAPP saying the two classrooms can accommodate more students in their community, and assist the goal of the municipality to upgrade Bataraza’s educational standard for its young people.
“We hope that this is not the last project that OPPAP will fund in our barangay. We need more classrooms here for our children so, that we will no longer send them faraway to other barangays to get education,” Aslie said.
PAMANA is the national government’s program "that extends development interventions to isolated, hard-to-reach, and conflict-affected areas, ensuring that they are not left behind.”
Its design and delivery is conflict-sensitive and peace-promoting to ensure peace is maintained in the community.
