JIPAPAD, Eastern Samar– House Minority Leader and 4Ps party-list Rep. Marcelino Libanan led the groundbreaking ceremony for the opening and concreting of the road connecting sitio Casapa of Brgy. 4 to the villages of San Roque and Cagmanaba on July 1.
The event was held as the town was celebrating its 59th founding anniversary.
This project is under the SIPAG of ‘Sustainable Infra Project Alleviating Gaps’ of the Department of Public Works and Highways in the amount of P43.82 million.
“We want a more connected and vibrant community. With the opening of the new road, it is also the opening of hope and opportunities, we ensure that no Estehanon will be left until the very last barangay, as we continue to rise,” Libanan said during the groundbreaking event.
Jimmy Pajares, a barangay official of Cagmanaba, believes that the implementation of the project will promote connectivity, provide easy access, and safe road network for the entire community and neighboring towns.
The project, he added, will help enhance the quality of life among the villagers, and even address the problem of insurgency in these areas.
