Arroyo, de Castro to grace developers gab here
PRESIDENT Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo and Vice President Noli de Castro are expected to grace the 2006 SHDA-HUDCC National Developers Convention in Davao City.
The convention, spearheaded by Subdivision and Housing Developers Association, Inc. (SHDA), in coordination with the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council (HUDCC), is slated on October 5 and 6 at the Waterfront Insular Hotel.
Speakers from Thailand, Malaysia, and Singapore are also invited to share their success stories and good practices in terms of housing development in their countries.
SHDA president Salvador T. Valbuena said this year's theme is "Housing Beyond Borders, Responding To Global Challenges."
During the Club 888 press conference at the Marco Polo Hotel Wednesday, Valbuena said their target participants include operators of retirement facilities, representatives from health, insurance and caregiving industry, financial institutions and condominium and housing developers.
"The national developers convention is open to all practitioners in the housing industry," Valbuena said.
Valbuena said a dialogue with several housing agencies such as the HUDCC, National Housing Authority, Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board and National Home Mortgage Finance Corporation will be held to discuss issues related to government programs and policies on housing. (BRQ)
