Ang Maynila…Noon at Ngayon
(Ika-7 bahagi ng State of the City Address ni Mayor Joseph “Erap” Estrada noong Hulyo 23, 2014.)
“WE now have an integrated command and control center for disaster management and response, traffic control, and peace and order improvement. This modern and state-of-the-art command and control center is among the best in the country. Palakpakan natin ang ating bise-alkalde, Isko Moreno.
We have equipped our Manila Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office created under Ordinance No. 8323 with amphibious vehicles, rescue boats, ambulances and other equipment. Maipagmamalaki natin na sa nagdaang bagyong Glenda, ‘zero casualty’ tayo at agad nakapaglikas ng mga kababayan sa mga evacuation center. Palakpakan natin ang Manila Disaster Risk Reduction Management Office, at ang kanilang director, Johnny Yu.
Our Manila Dialysis Center, the biggest dialysis faci-lity in the country, will be fully operational by September this year. Orange Card holders will get free dialysis while others will be entitled to substantial discounts based on ability to pay. Ang dialysis center na ito ay iniaalay natin sa ating mga kababayan, higit sa lahat sa mga kapus-palad.
In partnership with a professional company, MSR Health Solutions Inc., we now have modern diagnostic laboratories in three of our hospitals.
We were able to give City Hall a complete paint job, fixed some offices and renovated the public toilets. We have rehabilitated our parks and plazas, seven of them with fountains and assigned guards.
We have awarded lots to 135 awardees under the ‘land for the landless program,’ a project of former Mayor Ramon Bagatsing, Jr, which we fully support.
Computerized na rin ang Office of the Civil Registrar para sa pagkuha ng certified true copies ng birth certificates, death certificates and marriage contracts at puwedeng ma-release sa loob ng isang araw.
Our website, manila.gov.ph, is now working and accessible to all. We also have a city app, ‘go manila,’ the first of its kind among LGUs, which is accessible to Android phones users now, and, later on, to Apple users as well.”
