    Summary Poverty Reduction and Social Strategy

    Improving Growth Corridors in Mindanao Road Sector Project (RRP PHI 41076) SUMMARY POVERTY REDUCTION AND SOCIAL STRATEGY Country: Philippines Project Title: Improving Growth Corridors in Mindanao Road Sector Project Lending/Financing Sector Loan Department/ Southeast Asia Department Modality: Division: Transport and Communications Division I. POVERTY AND SOCIAL ANALYSIS AND STRATEGY Poverty targeting: General intervention A. Links to the National Poverty Reduction and Inclusive Growth Strategy and Country Partnership Strategy The project objectives support the Philippine Development Plan (PDP), 2017–2022,a which targets reducing poverty incidence from 21.6% in 2015 to 14.0% by 2022, or by about 6 million people. Among the targets under the strategic framework of the PDP, 2017–2022 are that (i) growth will be more inclusive, as manifested by a lower poverty incidence in rural areas, from 30% in 2015 to 20% in 2022; and (ii) the unemployment rate will decline from the current 5.6% (2017) to 3%–5% in 2022. The PDP notes that infrastructure undergirds a country’s socioeconomic development, the more strategically distributed it is—both by sectoral and spatially—the better it is for inclusive growth and sustainable development. A principal objective of Asian Development Bank (ADB) support for the Philippines is to help in the achievement of high, inclusive, and sustainable growth. Support for infrastructure development, including transport, forms a core part of ADB’s operational strategy for the country. B. Results from the Poverty and Social Analysis during PPTA or Due Diligence 1. Key poverty and social issues. Poverty incidence in the Philippines in 2015 was estimated at 21.6%, equivalent to about 22 million Filipinos who cannot afford their basic needs.

    Part Ii Metro Manila and Its 200Km Radius Sphere

    PART II METRO MANILA AND ITS 200KM RADIUS SPHERE CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA CHAPTER 7 GENERAL PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA 7.1 PHYSICAL PROFILE The area defined by a sphere of 200 km radius from Metro Manila is bordered on the northern part by portions of Region I and II, and for its greater part, by Region III. Region III, also known as the reconfigured Central Luzon Region due to the inclusion of the province of Aurora, has the largest contiguous lowland area in the country. Its total land area of 1.8 million hectares is 6.1 percent of the total land area in the country. Of all the regions in the country, it is closest to Metro Manila. The southern part of the sphere is bound by the provinces of Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal, and Quezon, all of which comprise Region IV-A, also known as CALABARZON. 7.1.1 Geomorphological Units The prevailing landforms in Central Luzon can be described as a large basin surrounded by mountain ranges on three sides. On its northern boundary, the Caraballo and Sierra Madre mountain ranges separate it from the provinces of Pangasinan and Nueva Vizcaya. In the eastern section, the Sierra Madre mountain range traverses the length of Aurora, Nueva Ecija and Bulacan. The Zambales mountains separates the central plains from the urban areas of Zambales at the western side. The region’s major drainage networks discharge to Lingayen Gulf in the northwest, Manila Bay in the south, the Pacific Ocean in the east, and the China Sea in the west.

    Formulation of an Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan for Marikina River Basin VOLUME 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1 INTRODUCTION The Philippines, through RBCO-DENR had defined 20 major river basins spread all over the country. These basins are defined as major because of their importance, serving as lifeblood and driver of the economy of communities inside and outside the basins. One of these river basins is the Marikina River Basin (Figure 1). Figure 1 Marikina River Basin Map 1 | P a g e Formulation of an Integrated River Basin Management and Development Master Plan for Marikina River Basin VOLUME 1: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Marikina River Basin is currently not in its best of condition. Just like other river basins of the Philippines, MRB is faced with problems. These include: a) rapid urban development and rapid increase in population and the consequent excessive and indiscriminate discharge of pollutants and wastes which are; b) Improper land use management and increase in conflicts over land uses and allocation; c) Rapidly depleting water resources and consequent conflicts over water use and allocation; and e) lack of capacity and resources of stakeholders and responsible organizations to pursue appropriate developmental solutions. The consequence of the confluence of the above problems is the decline in the ability of the river basin to provide the goods and services it should ideally provide if it were in desirable state or condition. This is further specifically manifested in its lack of ability to provide the service of preventing or reducing floods in the lower catchments of the basin. There is rising trend in occurrence of floods, water pollution and water induced disasters within and in the lower catchments of the basin.

Regarding river floods, after the Mangahan Floodway was completed in 1988, JICA had implemented the “Study on Flood Control and Drainage Projects in Metro Manila” (1988 to 1991), and the “Pasig-Marikina River Channel Improvement Project” (the Project) was selected as a highly urgent project to implement flood management measures in the Pasig-Marikina River.
