BAYOMBONG, Nueva Vizcaya: More than P21 million worth of Didipio Mine community development fund (CDF) projects have been completed and turned over to recipient communities in Nueva Vizcaya and Quirino provinces.

Desiree Baldevino, Didipio Mine External Affairs and Social Performance superintendent, said the projects consist of a multipurpose building (MPB) and six farm-to-market roads (FMRs).

Baldevino said the MPB which was turned over to Barangay Pacquet in the upland town of Kasibu was the first ever constructed MPB under the CDF of Didipio Mine. Barangay chief Dison Agmalis was present during the turnover ceremony.

Another completed project was the 220-meter farm-to-market road in Barangay Muta which connects to Sitio Angetsin, also in Kasibu town.

Baldevino said the project was turned over to the community led by village chief Agosto Pantal.

In the neighboring town of Quirino province, two more FMR projects were turned over to the beneficiaries in the capital town of Cabarroguis.

The first was the 230-meter long FMR which extends from Purok 3 to Purok 6 in the village of Villa Peña. This was turned over to the community through its village chief Nolibert Carbonel.

The other was the 247-meter-long road project at Purok 4 in the village of Villamor, turned over to the community through village chief Greggy John de la Peña.

Also in Quirino province, three other CDF-funded FMR projects were turned over to the three beneficiary villages.

Baldevino said two FMR projects were turned over to Maddela town's villages of Dumabato Sur and Dumabato Norte.

The first was the 260-meter-long FMR with mixed aggregates shoulders located at Velano Street that was turned over to the community through Dumabato Sur village chief Primitivo Pacudan Jr.
