MANILA – A portion of the MacArthur Landing Memorial Park in Palo, Leyte which was damaged by super typhoon "Yolanda" has been restored. Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) personnel, led by chairman Francis Tolentino, re-erected the bronze statue of General Carlos P. Romulo which was knocked down by a surge of water during the onslaught of Yolanda last November 8. The memorial park, located in Red Beach in Barangay Candahug, marks the area where American liberation forces led by General Douglas MacArthur landed on October 20, 1944, ending the Japanese occupation of the Philippines. The MMDA is looking to end its three-week humanitarian mission this Sunday. – report from Dennis Datu, dzMM Naitayo na ng MMDA ang estatwa ni Gen.Carlos Romulo sa Mc Arthur Landing Memorial Park sa Palo,Leyte pic.twitter.com/qW988E3taC— Dennis Datu (@dennis_datu) November 28, 2013
