MALABON City Mayor Jeannie Sandoval and the local government have enhanced the city’s flood mitigation efforts to ensure the safety of residents during heavy rains and the high tide.
We will together ensure the safety of each one. Rest assured that we will work hard to ensure that the terrible floods that plagues us in the past won’t be repeated, and we can go on with our lives uninterrupted,” she said, speaking mostly in Filipino. Following the Malabon-Navotas River navigational gate malfunction incident in July, Sandoval immediately coordinated with the Department of Public Works and Highways and the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority , who operated the floodgate, for its immediate repair. The navigational gate was repaired and re-activated in September.
In September, the mayor and the city government inaugurated two new and modern pumping stations in Sto. Rosario II, Brgy. Baritan and Dulong Adante, Brgy. Tañong. These will ensure effective and efficient operations when flooding affects different parts of the city.
