NPA....no permanent address

I must admit that I am a big fan of Mao Tse Tung and I really admired his works.But I am not about to discuss communism and rebellion in my page, not in this page- I guess...just kidding. Well what I am referring in my tittle is about the NPA or the No Permanent Address Filipinos..the illegal settlers..the informal dwellers....the squatters.

Squatters are people who take over an open area and build their makeshift homes. As per Webster and Colliers- Squatting is the act of occupying an abandoned or unoccupied space or building that the squattee does not own, rent or otherwise have permission to use. Squatting is significantly more common in urban areas than rural areas, especially when urban decay occurs.
The national government declared that it will spend about $1.1 billion to resettle squatters in Metro Manila. They plan to construct 265,955 housing units for these people. But these are, nevertheless, the latest in a long, long history of attempts, plans and promises to remove and relocate informal dwellers. Well we can hear these politicians plans and platforms during election time...but thats part of the things they can promise just to get your vote. But remember promises are made to be broken.

Well I can tell you more about squatting and more about plans of the government for these people, but what the heck. Who cares? I myself doesn't have my own place I can call my own. Well as far as I know most of the Filipinos don't have nay as well. It either we rent in a small apartment, live with our parents, the house and lot that were occupying is owned by our relatives or we are squatting to someones property.
Well that's about most of the Filipinos plights. I am confident that you will agree to me that the majority of the people living inside Corinthian Village, Forbes park and the likes were not 100% Pinoy. They are either Europeans, Americans, Chinese, Japanese, Korean who are naturalized Filipino but definitely not the flat nose- brown skin Pinoy.
