Top officials of the Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) have met with leaders and members of a large urban poor group and discussed collaboration on the government’s housing program. ManilaBulletin
DHSUD Secretary Jose Rizalino Acuzar said the meeting was aimed at consulting urban groups and get their recommendations and concerns to further improve strategies in providing affordable but decent houses for the informal settlers and those under the low income bracket.
UPAC represents 205,000 families in the National Capital Region ncluding those in resettlement sites in nearby provinces. “As we always emphasize, inclusivity is a major pillar in the implementation of the ‘Pambansang Pabahay’. We are open to suggestions on how we can further collaborate to ensure that no one is left behind. Take this activity as a proof of our sincere effort to hear and consider what you have to say,” said Acuzar.
