Pinalagan ng Pamahalaang Lungsod ng Taguig ang huling media release ng Makati City government hinggil sa pagsasalin ng health facilities na sakop ng pinag-aawayang “EMBO” area.

Anila, isa itong “misinformation” campaign na lalong magpapahirap sa pagbibigay-serbisyo sa mga mamamayang sakop ng pinagtatalunang “EMBO” barangays.

Sa opisyal na pahayag ng Taguig City Hall, sinabi nitong “in bad faith” ang ginawa ng Makati City local goverment unit (LGU) na paglalabas ng press release na may titulong “Taguig’s ‘unreasonable’ rejection of Makati proposals impedes smooth transfer of city-owned health facilities, services – City Administrator.”

“What Makati deliberately suppresses in its press release is that its proposed Memorandum of Agreements are anchored on the false premise that they own the land and the health centers built thereon. This ‘unwavering stance’ that the land and facilities built thereon ‘unequivocally remain firmly under the purview of the City Government of Makati’ shamelessly violates the agreement with the DOH (Department of Healht) for both Makati and Taguig NOT to take up ownership claims of the land and buildings while the transition discussions are on-going so as not to derail the prime objective of a smooth transition of jurisdiction from Makati to Taguig,” anang official statement ng Taguig City government.

“In making its ownership claim non-negotiable, when the agreement with the DOH was to temporarily shelve the issue, Makati acts in utter bad faith and with reckless disregard to the welfare of their former residents. It is sad that, having lost the votes of the residents of the 10 barangays, Makati officials feel no moral scruples in abandoning them,” ayon pa kalatas.

Nanawagan din ang Taguig City government sa mga opisyal ng Makati na maging responsible sa paglalabas ng impormasyon sa publiko.

Samantala, nagpaalala rin si Taguig City Mayor Lani Cayetano sa miyembro ng media na pag-aralan munang mabuti ang pahayag bago ito isiwalat bilang balita.
