PBBM orders modular homes for Davao Oriental quake victims
President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. announced that the DHSUD will construct 150 modular housing units in Davao Oriental by Monday for families displaced by the magnitude 7.4/6.8 earthquakes. Marcos emphasized that modular shelters are a "more durable and comfortable" alternative to tent cities. Manay and Caraga have the highest number of totally destroyed houses, prompting the urgent appeal for construction materials from the provincial government.
