Catigbian Mayor Roberto Salinas succeeds in getting P3M worth funds for the town’s inner and outer religious processional roads. The projeect will be funded by the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Central Office.
The project may not really pass government audit, observers once told Mayor Salinas. “But the road is also owned by the government and the people who deserve to get their share of the taxes,” Salinas explained.
For the national government funds, almost a kilometer of standard government public roads are paved in concrete, filled with standard shouldering materials and asserts the governor’s executive order reflecting the provisions of the national law on municipal roads.
Salinas admitted that it took him two visits to the public works office in Manila to get his P3M wish. (rachiu/PIA)
