Fisherfolks gain access
road to Calatagan seas through a portion of the land of CaSoBe
Landco, known for pioneering landscapes for more
than 30 years and for its strong thrust on sustainability, allotted a portion
of the BeachTowns CaSoBe (Calatagan South Beach) in Batangas to provide a safe,
convenient and round the clock access road for fisherfolks to easily reach the Calatagan
seas from the public road and vice versa.
“Landco works closely with the community, the
local government of Calatagan, Batangas and our landowners for an inclusive
socio-economic development of different sectors in the vicinity of our
BeachTowns developments, particularly the fisherfolks. Ensuring their source of
livelihood and stimulating the growth of their micro enterprise are our prime
concerns. Our team undertakes measures for community involvement because it’s
the right thing to do and sustainability is deeply rooted in Landco’s DNA,” said
Erickson Y. Manzano, President and CEO, Landco Pacific Corporation.
Complementing this support for fisherfolks, Landco provides jobs to the local community: 69 out of the 104 or 66% of Millennial Resorts staff are residents of Calatagan.
The access road for fisherfolks along with
various community and environmental initiatives is part of Landco’s long-term
sustainability program which is aligned with Metro Pacific Investment
Corporation’s commitment to help achieve the United Nation’s Sustainable
Development Goals to make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe,
resilient, and sustainable; and strengthen the means of implementation and
revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development.

About United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is adopted at the United Nations Sustainable Development Summit on 25 September 2015. This Agenda is a plan of action for people, planet and prosperity. It also seeks to strengthen universal peace in larger freedom. It aims to eradicate poverty in all its forms and dimensions, including extreme poverty, which is the greatest global challenge and an indispensable requirement for sustainable development.
All countries and all stakeholders, acting in collaborative partnership, will implement this plan. The United Nations is resolved to free the human race from the tyranny of poverty and want and to heal and secure our planet. It is determined to take the bold and transformative steps which are urgently needed to shift the world onto a sustainable and resilient path.
As countries embark on this collective journey, each one pledged that no one will be left behind. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets demonstrate the scale and ambition of this new universal Agenda. Countries around the world seek to build on the Millennium Development Goals and complete what are not yet achieved. Each country seeks to realize the human rights of all and to achieve gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls. They are integrated and indivisible and balance the three dimensions of sustainable development: the economic, social and environmental. The Goals and targets will stimulate action over the next years in areas of critical importance for humanity and the planet.
