“A number of Navoteño families still live in danger zones along the coast or waterways. That is why we give high priority to providing safe and quality homes," said Tiangco.
"Although Navotas is small in terms of land area, we will continue to work, in partnership with NHA and DHSUD, to provide more housing options for our people," he added.
NavotaAs Homes 3 adds to the 5 in-city housing projects of the local government that produced 2,187 housing units for families in need, particularly those who previously lived in danger zones or were affected by fire incidents and other disasters. (Navotas PIO/PIA-NCR)
