Rental housing is now seen as a vital component in accommodating large number of families in developing countries. In the Philippines, specifically Metro Manila, the increase in urban population through both migration and natural increase, has been absorbed to a large extent by the rental market. There is thus a need for the government to reexamine its policy on rental housing.

  • Managing Our Urban Ecosystems for Survival
    Managing Our Urban Ecosystems for Survival Manuel M. Oayrit Department of Health San Lazaro Compound, Rizal Avenue Sta. Cruz, Manila ABSTRACT An urban ecosystem is man-made. It is not natural in the way that mountains, forests and oceans are. None­ theless, its four elements --land, air, waters and people­ maintain a dynamic balance the poor management of which results in pollution, environmental deterioration and social problems. Metro Manila is confronted with the environmental and social problems that accompany rapid industrializa­ tion and increase in population density. A 1990 study commissioned by the Asian Development Bank identified eight leading environmental problems. These are: 1. solid waste; 2. slum areas; 3. flooding; 4. water pollution; 5. air pollution; 6. hazardous/toxic waste; 7. destruction of naturBI resources; and 8. noise pollution. These environmental problems occur for a variety of reasons; but oftentimes, these reasons include underlying social problems that extend beyond the city. For example, the increase in the number of squatters and slum areas is not only associated with inadequate housing facilities or the high cost of urban real estate but it is also a consequence of rural poverty, rural unemployment and the migration of the rural poor into fhe cities to seek their livelihood. Once established, slum areas in turn spin an ever-evolving web of social consequences. 257 258 Transactions of the National Academy of Science and Technology To solve the environmental problems of Metro Ma­ nila, we must address both the physical and social determinants which give rise to these problems. Re­ sources need to be found to finance the infrastructure improvements for solid waste disposal, sewage, trans­ port, social services and many others.
