SAN JOSE, Occidental Mindoro (PIA) — The Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) MIMAROPA has coordinated with the local government units in the region for the implementation of the Pambansang Pabahay para sa Pilipino Program (4PH).
Launched under the administration of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” R. Marcos, Jr., the 4PH aims to help families and individuals acquire affordable housing.
“In a nutshell po, ito po ay isang socialized housing program para sa mga qualified Pag-IBIG members,” DHSUD MIMAROPA Regional Director Peter Daniel G. Fraginal explained during the Philippine Information Agency MIMAROPA’s Kapihan sa Bagong Pilipinas, September 24.

“In fact, mayroon na po tayong naunang na-launch o groundbreaking [ng 4PH]. Ito po ay ‘yong Sta. Cruz, Marinduque…Ito po ang kauna-unahang project under 4PH po,” the Regional Head added.
