In a statement released on Friday, MMDA Chairman Don Artes announced that the agency and the Metro Manila Council fully support the program, which goes beyond urban greening and beautification.
Artes said that the program is about creating, protecting, and ensuring inclusive and safe public spaces for communities under the administration of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.

“The MMDA recognizes that the G-3 program aligns closely with our own mandates on urban renewal and protection, as well as health, sanitation, and pollution control,” Artes said.
He added that last year the MMDA allocated additional funds for initiatives such as the Adopt-a-Park project and the Neighborhood Upgrading and Landscaping program.
“We remain committed to sustaining these efforts to benefit not only Metro Manila but the entire nation under the Bagong Pilipinas [campaign],” he said.

DBM Secretary Amenah Pangandaman led the ceremonial signing alongside Artes and Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development Secretary Jose Ramon Aliling.
Various design concepts and environmental principles of the G-3 program, which aim to improve and make public open spaces more accessible nationwide, were also presented during the event last Thursday evening.
