Meanwhile, DA-Regional Project Coordination Office 10 headed by OIC-Regional Executive Director Carlene C. Collado encouraged the attendees to exercise their roles as watchdogs of SPs.

“Being the co-owner of SPs, it is your responsibility to monitor the construction which should be aligned to the World Bank policies and guidelines and ensure its quality, durability, and sustainability.”
