President of the Republic Defends Self-directed ConstructionThe great solution in terms of housing for the majority of the Angolan population is self-directed construction in the view of the President of the Republic Joo Loureno.Speaking to the press this Wednesday September 15 at the end of his two-day visit to the province of Cuanza Norte Joo Loureno said that the State is responsible for infrastructureing the land guaranteeing water and energy and establishing incentives for citizens to build their own residence.Yesterday the first day of his visit to Cuanza Norte Joo Loureno handed over the keys to two residences in the Quilmetro 11 housing project in the city of Ndalatando of the 12 completed so far.But in his point of view the solution to the housing problem in Angola does not pass exclusively through the construction of centralities.This illusion that the centralities will solve the housing problem let it be left behind. The great solution for the majority of the Angolan population in terms of housing is without a shadow of a doubt directed self-construction. Thats what we are. to see precisely here in this location he reiterated.The President of the Republic highlighted the importance of provincial governments taking initiatives to identify spaces for guided self-construction.It is clear that there will be houses on the market not only sold by the State but also by private agents who are dedicated to real estate. Therefore there has to be housing for everyone and housing for everyone is massive construction in this model of self-directed construction. We hope that other provincial governments will also take the initiative to identify spaces for guided self-construction.Joo Loureno called on the population to build their homes in safe areas.To the provincial government he asked not to allow the construction to be carried out on water lines under high tension lines on hillsides which in rainy weather with landslides end up causing misfortune.The way to prevent this from happening is to offer the population this alternative of directed construction on minimally infrastructured land that has the essentials which are above all energy and water.The President of the Republic left Cuanza Norte this afternoon and is already in Luanda to continue his work schedule at the Presidential Palace.
