The lawmaker, with his son Rodrigo “Rigo” Duterte II, through the PPP program, supervised the distribution of relief and cash assistance to eight house owners, six renters, two sharers, and a caretaker at the village.
Matina Aplaya barangay Captain Nestor B. Cirunay thanked the First Congressional District Office for the timely support given to the fire victims.
The mantra of the PPP members is to prioritize action over intention in the name of public service. Rep. Duterte and his team ensure to provide assistance to Davaoeños during calamities like fire and maintain support for displaced families and marginalized groups.
The Davao City Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Office (CDRRMO) recorded around 40 individuals affected by the incident. Some victims took shelter at Matina Aplaya gymnasium while others stayed with their respective relatives.
