Work on P41.3 million Lapu-Lapu City College bldg nearly finished

CEBU, Philippines — The P41.3 million administration building for the Lapu-Lapu City College is nearing completion.

Lapu-Lapu City Lone District Rep. Paz Radaza inspected the construction recently and shared the good news of its development. Radaza lobbied for the construction of the building with the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH).

“Lipay kaayo ko kay pagbisita nako, nindot og design ang DPWH sa mao nga building, pang modern kaayo ang dating sa building," Radaza said.

Radaza said education has been her priority even when she was mayor of Lapu-Lapu City for nine years. She said she believes that education is one of the ways for people to get out of poverty.

"Education has always been my topmost priority mao nga ako gyud gipadayon ang ako nang nasugdan nga nga mga proyekto sa pagpatukod og buildings alang sa city college," she said.

(Education has always been my topmost priority, which is why I continued what I have started in coming up with projects to build more buildings for the city college.)

When she was mayor, Radaza pushed for funds to build a state-of-the-art building hospitality management building for the college’s hotel management course and related courses.

Radaza said she will continue to work for more buildings through DPWH because additional infrastructure for the college would mean more courses that residents in the city can avail of for free. — JMO (FREEMAN)
