The National Food Authority (NFA) is eyeing to transfer to its new building office in Barangay Sta. Monica by September.
Osmundo Guinto, Jr., NFA Palawan provincial manager, said they are awaiting the completion of repairs and widening of Rafols Road where their new office is located before they can transfer.
“Gusto na namin mag-transfer talaga kaya lang hindi pa siya ready. Kasi unang-una, hindi pa gawa ‘yong kalsada. Pangalawa, ‘yong opisina ay kailangan pa ng kaunting pagpapagawa pa sa loob ng compound kasi mababa ‘yong compound niya,” he said.
Guinto said they have also requested for the backfilling and cementing of their building compound.
In 2018, the city government donated a 1,000-square meter lot for the agency’s new office building.
The agency allocated P9 million for the new office in Sta. Monica, while its old office in Barangay Liwanag near the port area will be used as a staff house for the personnel who will remain there to be in charge of the warehouse.
“Hindi pa magiging komportable ang mga empleyado at ang mga kliyente namin kung masyado namin mamadaliin ang paglipat. Sa ngayon ay nasa 99 percent na rin ‘yong gawa na sa new office,” he said.
