VP blasts slow action for Zambo

Two years after the armed conflict in Zamboanga City, Vice President Jejomar Binay pointed out that the lives of hundreds of residents have not yet normalized.

”Two years after the tragedy, hundreds remain in transitory homes where access to basic services and facilities is limited. They continue to live in squalor, with reports of women and children being raped and forced into prostitution, and the evacuees exposed to disease and malnutrition,” he said in a statement.
