The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) officially inaugurated the Urban Green Space and Recreational Park located in Bayanan Baywalk, Muntinlupa City as part of the agency’s Adopt-A-Park project.
MMDA Acting Chairman Engr. Carlo Dimayuga III and Muntinlupa City Mayor Ruffy Biazon led the inauguration and blessing of the park.
“It is always a good day when we inaugurate projects like this because it is a testament to the significance of the productive collaboration between local government units and national agencies,” Dimayuga said.
“The establishment of the park is part of the 7K Agenda, the centerpiece of my administration.”
According to Biazon, the establishment of the park is part of the 7K Agenda, the centerpiece of his administration.
The 7K Agenda consists of Kabuhayan (livelihood), Kalusugan (health), Karunungan (knowledge or education), Kaunlaran (progress), Kapayapaan/Kaayusan (peace and order), Katarungan (justice), and Kalikasan (environment).
“We have a shared responsibility to maintain the cleanliness of the park.”
“We have a shared responsibility to maintain the cleanliness of the park. I urge the Muntinlupa City government as well as the officials of Barangay Bayanan to perform and discharge their duties accordingly for the benefit of our constituents,” the mayor stressed.
The Urban Green Space and Recreational Park at Bayanan Baywalk, which was turned over to the City Government of Muntinlupa, has new grass, bollard lights, benches, ramps for persons with disabilities (PWDs), an exercise area, and a colorful play area for the kids.
