More
and more people are joining the ever-increasing group of people we call
"informal settlers." This has been the "trade mark" of
Mayor Mike Rama's administration where he has shown little sympathy and
compassion for the plight of the poor. And we should bear in mind that the poor
comprised the majority of our city residents. Taken in contrast to the campaign
of Pope Francis who urges national leaders around the world to take care of the
poor, this blatant approach of Mayor Mike to prohibit people from going back to their place to rebuild
their dwelling places every time there
is a fire conflagration that takes place in the city is doing no good to the
cause of helping the poor. It is surely expected to produce a multiplier-effect
to the number of informal settlers that the Rama administration is producing by
the hundreds with its undisguised anti-poor policy.
Footnote:
City government personnel from PROBE (Prevention, Restoration, Order,
Beautification and Enhancement) has announced that it has already successfully
cleared 52 structures, which were built immediately after a fire hit Sitio
Warwick Barracks, Barangay Ermita, Cebu City last January 11.
