CATBALOGAN CITY, Samar – District Engineer Herminio V. Gulmatico of Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Samar 2nd District Engineering Office (DEO) recently conducted a rapid inspection of two significant ongoing projects located at the new site in Barangay Lagundi, overlooking the picturesque Maqueda Bay.

This new facility is set to enhance operational efficiency, supporting improved public service delivery for the residents of Samar. Additionally, Engineer Gulmatico inspected the Museo Han Samar, a project that aims to preserve and showcase the rich cultural heritage of the region, soon to become a prominent cultural destination.

With these developments, the DEO continues to strengthen infrastructure and cultural initiatives, contributing to the growth and vibrancy of Samar. Both projects are anticipated to benefit the local community and provide long-term value for generations to come.
