Suroy: Cambalading Albuera, Leyte

Albuera is a 3rd class municipality in the province of Leyte, Philippines. According to the 2010 census, it has a population of 40,520 people. The town boasts of a semi-concrete municipal building. Streets within the poblacion are reinforced with cement along the ditches giving the town a neat look and at the same time providing security against muddy streets during the rainy months.

Infrastructure projects like a puericulture center, pre-fab school buildings and concrete tennis courts have been built through the efforts of the civic conscious people of Albuera. Artesian wells and a rural health center station have likewise been established. However, there are certain projects the people would greatly benefit from, like the construction of roads that would link Albuera to the eastern coast as a market for its products which have depended entirely on the markets of Ormoc City and neighboring municipalities.

Furthermore, the installation of a water system, construction of permanent dikes to contain river floods, a seawall and wharf as well as some bridges are some long-range development plans envisioned by the townspeople of Albuera to give them inestimable benefits.
