15 bills filed to convert 189KMS of Basilan roads into national roads

admin May 23, 2023

DEPUTY Minority Leader and Basilan Rep. Mujiv Hataman

DEPUTY Minority Leader and Basilan Rep. Mujiv Hataman has filed 15 bills seeking the conversion of 15 provincial, municipal and city roads into national roads in order to ensure their maintenance and repair by the national government.

“Napakahalaga ng pagsasaayos ng mga daan na ito dahil dito idinadaan ang mga produktong agrikultura at ang mga ani sa karagatan papunta sa aming mga palengke. Ito din ang mga daanan ng mga lokal at dayuhang turista patungo sa aming mga tanawin,” said Hataman, former governor of the now-defunct ARMM.

“Ngunit kadalasan ay hindi ito name-maintain ng maayos ng mga lokal na pamahalaan dahil sa kakulangan sa pondo. Kaya nag-file tayo ng mga panukala para siguruhin na laging maayos ang mga daan na ito,” he added.

The measures covering the conversions of some 189 kilometers of road include the 39.7-kilometer Aguada-Sumagdang Junction Tairan Road in Isabela City, along with the Junction Balagtasan-Tumakid-Junction Sengal and the Junction Limook-Danit-Junction Badja roads, both of which are 24.4 kilometers long and in Lamitan City.

Of the 15 roads proposed for conversion, five are in the municipality of Lantawan, three are in Lamitan City, two each in Isabela City and the municipality of Maluso, and one each in the municipalities of Tuburan, Sumisip and Tipo-Tipo.

While Isabela and Lamitan are both cities, Maluso remains a fourth-class municipality, while Lantawan and Tipo-Tipo are both third-class municipalities. Tuburan is a second-class municipality and Sumisip is a first-class municipality.

“Nagsisimula pa lamang bumangon ang Basilan mula sa matagal na panahon ng digmaan at karahasan. Kaya napakahalaga ng pagpapanatili ng kaayusan para sa mga daang ito, para tuloy-tuloy ang daloy ng komersyo at turismo na nagbibigay kabuhayan sa mga Basileno,” Hataman noted.
