PostscriptMoving ForwardThe key approach in sustaining and building upon the achievements of the past two yearsis to strengthen local ownership of the 3cd program and the DRMMP in Metro Manila.In addition to the objective of implementing the DRMMP, roundtable discussionswere held with several key government agencies that are actively implementing theirrespective disaster risk reduction programs in Metro Manila. Facilitated by the UNDPCountry Office, the purpose of the meetings was to find out how the final phaseof the 3cd Program of Metro Manila would fit the overall priority agenda of thegovernment.A meeting with Amelia Supetran and Sharon Gil of UNDP-Manila, R. Solidum andLeyo Bautista took place on 11 October 2006, to present the progress of the UNDPBureau of Crisis Prevention and Rehabilitation (UNDP/BCPR)-funded preparatoryphase of the 3cd activities in Manila. As agreed upon in this consultation meeting,NEDA, NDCC and MMDA would be invited to join the working group to coordinatewith EMI in identifying activities that need to be accomplished.Upon advice from the UNDP/BCPR in Geneva, EMI has started negotiating withkey institutions in Metro Manila to draft a proposal for the Phase 2 implementationof 3cd activities in Manila. Facilitated by UNDP-Manila, the working group held ameeting on 17 October 2006, which was presided by PHIVOLCS Deputy DirectorBart Bautista.

Bendimerad offered to draft aproposal to jointly hold a seminar-workshop for CNDR members on how privatebusiness might work for DRR in the megacity.By December 2006, a draft proposal shall have been submitted to UNDP/BCPR forfunding.
