Farm to Market roads are a no-brainer for infrastructure development. The main challenge really is on the budget. With our current system, it definitely cannot be handled by the brgy captain alone. Need to lobby this with the provincial governor and congressman (supposedly get it from the Pork Barrel fund or whatever they want to call it now).
Start with concrete tirepaths at least.
Indeed sir, that's why the fund for KALAHI PROJECTS for our brgy. were utilized for this projects. Luckily they already have started at least 55 meters of the road last year. That project proposal was also last year months after I have proposed it to our brgy. and I am just glad that they have heared my project proposal. I really hope that on the next year's budget for kalahi they would continue to connect the road until to the end of our sitio. Tire paths for me isn't the solution itself it is just a mere supplement. If we want lasting effects, then concrete roads are the best.
I meant that starting with tirepaths can stretch the budget into covering longer routes as phase1. Phase2 would be another project and funding to have full concrete roads. It is more important to create and connect the farm to market road asap than do it few meters at a time. :)
