PAGADIAN CITY,
Zamboanga del Sur, Jan. 3 (PNA) --A contingent of the
Interfaith Forum for
Solidarity and Peace is set to leave for another mercy mission to help the
“Yolanda” victims in the Visayas Region.
The contingent of 60
people comprising mostly of volunteer carpenters headed by this city’s Diocese
Bishop Emmanuel Cabajar will leave Monday to the “Yolanda”- battered areas.
Interfaith
Secretariat information officer Faye Reyes said Friday the contingent will help
the typhoon victims in Palo, Leyte, rebuild their houses.
Reyes said the
contingent that would leave Monday would be the third batch as two batches were
earlier deployed to the Visayas Region.
The Interfaith will
pay them a salary based on the minimum wage law starting on the fourth day
onwards until the last day of work, according to Reyes.
However, she said the
duration of work of the carpenters in Palo, Leyte would depend on the things
that need to be accomplished.
She said the
contingent would also bring some materials needed to rebuild the houses of the
typhoon victims as well as foods and medicines.
“We will have an
orientation at the Bishop House on Sunday to iron out everything,” she
added.(PNA)
