MCDCB recently called for a convergence meeting with NGAs in
Cebu to discuss how the government agencies can assist the board in ensuring
that development projects in the pipeline will be funded and implemented.
MCDCB is a coordinating body for metro-wide planning and
development which aims to facilitate the formulation, coordination, and
monitoring of integrated development strategies, policies, and standards for
the development, initially, of Metro Cebu.
"We still have a long way to go. NGAs will come into a
more and more important role in the preparation of the projects, help us
through the bureaucracy processes to get the projects approved," said
Roberto Aboitiz, president of the Ramon Aboitiz Foundation Inc. (RAFI) which
facilitates the Mega Cebu program.
"You will be important in helping MCDCB find a way in
the accelerators and not the barriers in bureaucracy," said Aboitiz during
the meeting.
The board has raised the need to comply with the steps and
requirements specified by the government in order to secure inclusion for
project funding.
Evelyn Nacario-Castro, RAFI executive director, said they
need the help of NGAs and government-owned and controlled corporations (GOCCs)
to guide them in finding out where to push the projects for funding.
MCDCB has 14 proposed anchor programs with ten flagship
projects addressing development issues in the province.
Castro said that out of the 14 anchor programs, they are
looking at three priority areas, namely: water (supply and drainage
protection), solid waste, and traffic.

CEBU CITY, Feb. 18 (PIA) --- The Metro
Cebu Development and Coordinating Board (MCDCB) is seeking the help of
key national government agencies (NGAs) in Cebu in implementing
recommended projects addressing critical development issues in Metro
Cebu.
MCDCB recently called for a convergence meeting with
NGAs in Cebu to discuss how the government agencies can assist the
board in ensuring that development projects in the pipeline will be
funded and implemented.
MCDCB is a coordinating body for
metro-wide planning and development which aims to facilitate the
formulation, coordination, and monitoring of integrated development
strategies, policies, and standards for the development, initially, of
Metro Cebu.
"We still have a long way to go. NGAs will
come into a more and more important role in the preparation of the
projects, help us through the bureaucracy processes to get the projects
approved," said Roberto Aboitiz, president of the Ramon Aboitiz
Foundation Inc. (RAFI) which facilitates the Mega Cebu program.
Aboitiz
encouraged the NGA representatives to sustain their support for the
board's vision under the Mega Cebu Vision and Development Strategy.
"You
will be important in helping MCDCB find a way in the accelerators and
not the barriers in bureaucracy," said Aboitiz during the meeting.
The
board has raised the need to comply with the steps and requirements
specified by the government in order to secure inclusion for project
funding.
