CAPITOL SITE, Cebu – The Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) strengthened its ties
with the Provincial Government of Cebu during a courtesy visit on 15 September 2022, as
the Bank expressed its continued support for the Province’s Enhanced Countryside
Development (ECD) Program for farmers and fisherfolk.

The Bank has an ongoing partnership with the Provincial Government under the ECD
