From Interaksyon - demolition of 2,000 homes at floodway east bank
Some 2,000 squatters along the floodway easement lost their homes to the demolition undertaken since 5 days ago in compliance with the December 18, 2008 mandamus of the Supreme Court directing MMDA and other government ideas to clear water ways easement of squatters.
This is a welcome move considering that there has been an accumulation of silt along the east bank of the Pasig site. Only 70% of the floodway is estimated to be functional due to incessant disposal of garbage and was presumed to be cause of widespread flooding due to Ondoy.
Squatting a bane to social infrastructure from Cuervo property
This post congratulates the Mayor of Pasig City for fulfilling his duty complying with the Supreme Court decision, and having the backbone and the courage to undertake this challenging undertaking, unmindful of the leftist death squads.
Will Cainta and Manila, Mandaluyong, Taguig follow suit. Are they as determined and as strong leader as Mayor Eusebio?
