After a promising start and a warm welcome from the local authorities of the City of Talisay and of the Province of Negros Occidental to put up a center for sexually abused girls, the situation underwent an unexpected turnaround during the last months.
To answer the request of the City of Talisay to transfer our project and not cut their municipal running track, the board members of CAMELEON association accepted to transfer our center in a smaller portion adjacent to the previous one. The Province of Negros Occidental also agreed to amend the official documents to fit this new location and the provincial council approved the amended usufruct last Jan 25th, 2017.
Since then the City of Talisay keeps us hanging until some negociation between them and the Province will be done.
In the meantime we have finalized the architectural design of the center. We are now depending on the settlement of this political issue to launch the bidding.
We hope that a positive outcome will be found in the coming days or weeks to start the construction works as soon as possible.
