UNHAMPERED DEVELOPMENT AND PROGRESS | 53IB Inspects BDP Project in Pagadian

To ensure that development and progress is unhampered, the Philippine Army’s 53rd Infantry “Matapat” Battalion (53IB) inspected the ongoing construction of Barangay Development Program (BDP) Projects in Barangay Dampalan, Pagadian City.

Through the Army’s Community Support Program (CSP), Barangay Dampalan was declared “clear” of CPP-NPA terrorist influence in March 2019. The Barangay is a recipient of 20-million-pesos-worth of infrastructure projects for the construction of the barangay’s bridge and farm-to-market road.

The BDP is the flagship program of Ending Local Communist Armed Conflict (ELCAC) which was conceptualized to finally address insurgency by bringing sustainable solutions and basic services to communities in need.
