Significance of the Program
- The development integrity of the City
must be sustained and make it still
livable in the future as it is yesterday
and today which is the biggest
responsibility of its current generation.
It was “very maanyag” before, it is
“maanyag” today, it must be again very
“maanyag” tomorrow, otherwise we
deprive the future generation the
opportunity to experience themselves
how a “maanyag” environment looks like.
- The development of the City is the
responsibility of all and should not be
taken as the sole obligation of the
government.
- The development of the City would be
realized in the immediate future if the
government, the people and other
stakeholders will work together towards
its attainment.
- The Program acts as the Framework or
Model that will guide the government,
the people and other stakeholders
towards attaining total development for
the Island that is anchored on the
Garden City concept.
- As such, the Program advocates
(through advocacy activities) for
stakeholders participation and
convergence of the things that they do
geared towards attaining the vision for
the City and manifest the same by
practicing the principles (through
management of best practices) that
are being espoused thereof.
