STA. CRUZ, Davao del Sur, Oct. 27 -- Hedcor Tudaya, Inc.
recently turned over a concreted road and covered court projects to the
Bagobo-Tagabawa community in Barangay Kapatagan, Davao del Sur, in fulfillment
of its memorandum of agreement.
Rolando Pacquiao, Hedcor vice president for Mindanao Operations,
said the company has allotted P1.6 million for the road concreting and P1.4
million for the construction of covered court.
“By providing the needs of our host community like basic
infrastructures, we are heading towards inclusive growth with
them,” Pacquiao said.
The blessing of the facilities was presided over by Father Joel
Coledia. Kapatagan barangay chair Santiago Morales Jr. with the barangay
council joined the turnover rites.
The covered court was completed in the span of 60 days.
The project was awarded to a local contractor, the Continental Industrial
Builders and Traders Corp.
Meanwhile, the 158-meter concrete road covers steep parts of the
access road that were opened during the Tudaya hydro construction.
Morales thanked Hedcor for fulfilling its promises. He said that
they are grateful for the support the company is giving.
He added that the covered court would be of various uses for the
people in the barangay.
Last May, the Tudaya hydro 1 and 2 plants were inaugurated. The
plants are expansion of the existing 42.5MW Sibulan hydropower plants.
In total, Tudaya hydro plants produce about 13.2MW of clean and
renewable energy.
