DPWH chief vows 'quick' rehab of Marawi

The Department of Public Works and Highways  (DPWH) on Thursday pledged to expedite the rehabilitation efforts in the strife-torn Marawi City, assuring the government will not resemble the previous administration's slow recovery program when Supertyphoon Yolanda wreaked havoc in the Visayas in 2013.

In a press conference in Malacanang, Public Works Secretary Mark Villar said the current administration had learned from the past administration, thus, would not allow affected families in Marawi City to suffer for a long period of time.
