San Pablo residents speak up; living in the baranggay

By


    16 Residents of Brgy. San Pablo participated in a community survey facilitated by 2nd year Journalism students with the aim to pinpoint local issues commonly encountered in the residence area. The brief survey uncovered several matters of concern through an on-site review of the location and a face-to-face conduction of the survey. Here are the results:


Survey responses from the residents of Brgy. San Pablo, City of Malolos, Bulacan





    Survey results reveal a total number of 16 respondents. Answers garnered vary in transportation issues (7 responses), waste management (3 responses), unleashed dogs (2 responses), sewer & waterwork issues (2 responses), a single (1) complaint regarding teenage misbehavior, and another single (1) response claiming that there are no visible problems concerning the baranggay.


    For a fair conclusion, the majority of the responses highlight the significant matter of transportation, both in poor traffic flow and untimely road construction. These takes were from residents living close to the national highway (McArthur Highway/Manila North Road) in which heavy traffic flow is experienced during rush hours. Coming in second, the issue of waste management, largely caused by delayed dump truck pick-up schedules.

Sa paglubog ng kalsada at islang kanilang kinagisnan, ganoon naman ang paglutang ng damdamin at  kanilang hinaing at panawagan para sa kanilang kapakanan. Bilang isa sa limang isla sa Malolos, Bulacan, hindi na lingid sa ating kaalaman na bangka ang pangunahing transportasyon ng mga residente sa Barangay Caliligawan. Ang bangka ang kanilang ginagamit sa pagpasok sa paaralan at trabaho, pambili ng kanilang panlaman tiyan, at pagpunta sa hospital kung kinakailangan. Paano kung ang bangka ay kasing layo ng bituin para abutin ng mga residente kahit na ito ang nagbibigay-ginhawa at naghahatid sa kanilang paroroonan?
