Abstract:
The ongoing program to rehabilitate the Pasig River has
caught the attention of millions of Filipinos. To those living
along the river, this Program is very much welcome.
In line with the river rehabilitation Program are several
projects. This research focuses on the Vulcan Estate Squatter
Settlement Project.
Since majority of squatters and slum dwellers are migrante
to Metro Manila, rural migration to the metropolis is also
discussed.
This study aims to check the progress of the government in
implementing this project and evaluate its capability to pursue
the whole program. It also seeks to find out the perception of
the people concerned in the project, as well as the government's
ability to address their problems.
