ZAMBOANGA CITY - Mayor Beng Climaco said she remains thankful to President Aquino for his continued support for Zamboanga City, especially in the recovery and rehabilitation efforts and all other assistance given by the national government following the September 2013 rebel siege here.
“I am very thankful that we have a President who has been very supportive of our needs in Zamboanga City,” Climaco said.
She said her satisfaction on Aquino’s six-year presidency was based on the satisfaction and happiness of the people who have directly benefitted from the President’s assistance, especially those displaced by the siege.
“When I saw the temporary shelters in (the village of) Kasanyangan, I saw how the IDPs lives were being developed,” Climaco said. “Not only that, President Aquino and his entire team never left us since the siege, and even assigned four cabinet secretaries to take charge and supervise the recovery and rehabilitation efforts in Zamboanga.”
Climaco said President Aquino continues to extend assistance to Zamboanga and its people through job generation, skills training and livelihood programs.
