Decent jobs a priority in post-‘Yolanda’ rehabilitation

Tacloban City and the rest of typhoon-ravaged places in Regions 8, 7 and 6 must be rehabilitated and rebuilt based on a framework of building the people’s capacity to survive calamities and live a secure and dignified life thereafter.

A new model of community must be built from the ruins of Yolanda. Decent employment must be a top priority since it is regular income that gives people a sense of long-term security and a life of dignity.
