Members of the US military and Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) completed the construction of a health clinic in Barangay Taysan, Legazpi City, Albay as part of the 2021 Multilateral Exercise Pacific Partnership.

US Navy Seabees with Naval Mobile Construction Battalion 3, US Marines with 9th Engineer Support Battalion (ESB), and AFP Seabees with the Naval Combat Engineering Brigade worked together to build the 5-by-6-meter health clinic. The newly constructed facility will provide medical care to 200 families and will be accessible to 16,000 residents living around Barangay Taysan, where typhoons and other natural disasters are often experienced.
