President Rody Duterte really for the people of Mindanao as he showed his love for his home island through the additional road projects worth around P6.889-billion which will be constructed across the Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) for the year 2018 alone.
According to ARMM's Department of Public Works and highways (DPWH), the new road projects comprised 68 percent of the ARMM's total infrastructure budget at P10.103-billion for 2018. The data was provided by ARMM's DPWH office.
The DPWH-ARMM's 2018 infrastructure budget would cover a total of 472 projects, including 40 seaports, 86 water supply systems, 39 bridges, 17 flood control structures, 20 drainage systems, and 32 other constructions.
DPWH-ARMM Secretary Don Mustapha Loong was quoted as saying "A total of 238 road projects with an overall length of 361.65 kilometers would be funded this year," Loong said.
The agency in-charge for infrastructure development in the region, earlier projected it would pave a total of 1,922.928 kilometers of roads across the region from 2012 to 2017. As of December 2017, DPWH-ARMM has completed 1,334 kilometers, while a total of 420.356 kilometers of road concreting projects are still going on.
Sec. Loong stated further that "With more infrastructure projects, people in the region will have better access to tourism sites, will help boost the region’s economy and uplift people’s lives as transport of goods and products will be cheaper,” Loong said.
Meanwhile, according to ARMM Gov. Mujiv Hataman, the infrastructure development is one of the regional government’s top priorities as it equates greater impact in improving the lives of the people in the region.
Earlier this month, the governor led the turnover of a Level II water supply system, or communal faucet units, which was turned over to the local government unit of Panglima Estino in Sulu.
Aside from the major infrastructure project in ARMM, the DPWH is currently embarking on the E-ARMM system aimed at establishing a database containing information on road projects including connectivity conditions and other public infrastructure projects within the region.
The system creates a network involving the regional office and eight district engineering offices that will serve as data repository line-agencies.
