Tobias 'Toby' Tiangco, inaugurated on Friday the pumping stations in Judge Roldan Street, Barangay San Roque; Daanghari Street, Barangay Daanghari and Maliputo Street in Barangay North Bay Boulevard South Dagat-dagatan.
'In the past when one heard about Navotas, it was known not only for fish but for flooding which really brought suffering to many residents as their livelihood, among others, was affected,' Mayor Tiangco said.'But there is a big difference now, flooding is no longer a top problem and we owe this to the existing pumping stations the city government has set up strategically over the years,' he added.
