Recto filed Senate Bill No. 47, or the proposed Multipurpose Gym in all Municipalities and Cities Act, as one of his priorities in the 18th Congress.
“If there’s one reason why we should put them up is that they will prevent schools from becoming default evacuation sites during calamities, a practice which turns students into displaced persons, when their learning is disrupted,” Recto said in a statement. In his bill, the gyms must be able to withstand 300 kilometer per hour winds and an Intensity 8 earthquake.
Recto said the buildings should have toilet facilities and a clinic area, and be spacious enough to install modular cubicles for families during evacuation.
See? I am The Man.
Just give one farm tractor equipment to municipalities and get those idle lands planted with crops. Final effect is generating income for the municipalities. Town halls are permanent expenditures ( building and keeping it in good condition) for the government.
Each community has its own multi-purpose hall already. How often the evacuation happens and what happens to the center when there is no evacuation? Will become a white elephant only most of the time. How about the maintenance?
