Valenzuela City
When Typhoon Ondoy caused flooding in Metro Manila and nearby areas in 2009, the Valenzuela City government relocated about a thousand informal settler families to a resettlement site in Barangay Ugong called Disiplina Village. The city eventually established a second Disiplina Village in Barangay Bignay. In the Disiplina Village, families pay P300 a month as rent, and are able to access other facilities and services developed by the city within the villages. Learn why it's called the Disiplina Village, and more in this episode.
