CEBU CITY – Days before the first anniversary of the deadly landslide in the City of Naga, Cebu, the promised housing project for the victims was finally realized.
President Duterte on Friday led the groundbreaking ceremony for the 192 houses that the National Housing Authority will construct for the landslide victims.
Duterte said the beneficiaries will not spend a single centavo for each of the house that they will own.
At least 400 families were displaced when a massive landslide struck Barangay Tinaan last Sept. 20. At least 70 persons were killed in the tragedy.
