PROFILE OF LAS PIñAS |
||
|
Las Piñas City has gone a long way from being a salt-making town to a highly urbanized city, a proud but
traditional home to hundreds of thousands of Las Piñeros. Other cities do not offer the same ambiance
Las Piñas does. It is a community that has been regaled as the CLEANEST AND GREENEST CITY IN METRO MANILA for
three consecutive years, making it in the Hall of Fame of the DILG-NCR sponsored honor. This achievement led to the GLOBAL 500 ROLL OF HONOUR of the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) on June 05 2000. This is in recognition of the outstanding practical achievements in the protection and improvement of the environment. Las Piñas was also adjudged as the "MOST PEACEFUL " community in Metro Manila in recognition of its very low crime rate and high rate of crime solution achieved by the local police force. The municipality of Las Pinas is one of the nine cities and eight municipalities comprising the Metropolitan Manila or the National Capital Region (NCR).
