Malacañang said Indonesian businessman Dato’ Sri Tahir has committed to assisting the Marcos administration in improving the lives of the Filipino people through social work and the provision of low-cost housing. | DYGalvezINQ
“So maybe I use this opportunity. I like to see, explore. We can work together in social work,” Tahir told Marcos, as quoted by PCO.
“We have a program that we are going to start for the street children. Unfortunately, we still have people who are homeless. So, we are trying to look after them,” Marcos told the businessman. This, he said, is to catch up with the country’s backlog of 6.5 million in terms of housing units for socialized and local housing.“That is a very important part of our agenda. It causes so many social problems if we don’t have available housing. It’s very hard for people to be productive if they do not have their own home,” Marcos explained.
