The word war between the cities of Taguig and Makati resumed Sunday after the latter decried the 'unreasonable rejection' by the former of proposed agreements on the transfer of public health facilities and services in villages affected by the Supreme Court decision awarding several areas to Taguig.
In a statement, Makati City Administrator Claro Certeza said the proposed memorandums of agreement pertain to eight barangay health centers and the health data of their patients and Ospital ng Makati.'We have initiated a series of correspondence and MOA proposals to the City of Taguig aimed to facilitate the smooth transfer of Makati-owned health facilities to its jurisdiction. However, these have been rejected outright, without valid reason.
Yet, Mayor Cayetano refused to even consider the proposal, opting to put off any discussions regarding OsMak, purportedly in deference to the wishes of the Health Secretary,' he said.Cayetano stated in her letter that Health Secretary Teodoro Herbosa will take the lead in any discussions regarding Ospital ng Makati, and that both cities must defer to his wishes.
