LINGAYEN, Pangasinan (PNA) -- Some 8.000 households from 37 municipalities of Pangasinan will soon receive P40 million worth of roofing materials from the National Housing Authority (NHA).

All these materials, sourced out from NHA's Housing Material Assistance (HOMA), will be used by the intended recipients to rebuild their houses unroofed by Typhoon Lando in October last year.

Gov. Amado Espino III led the ceremonial distribution of these housing materials to at least 50 beneficiaries from the towns of Mabini, Lingayen and Bugallon on Wednesday at the Motorpool Repair Bay 1 located at the Capitol compound.

The grant of material assistance was facilitated after Typhoon Lando by Governor Amado Espino III, now congressman of the Fifth District of Pangasinan.

Angelito Pedeglorio, officer-in-charge of the Pangasinan Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Office (PHUDCO), said that each household recipient was allocated nine pieces of GI-26x8 ft. pre-painted roofing sheets.

Pedeglorio said that the rest of the recipients will receive their housing material assistance from his office by schedule.
