President Rodrigo Duterte's economic managers on Thursday presented the line-up of infrastructure projects that the administration plans to build in a span of three to five years.
At a news briefing in Malacañang, Socioeconomic Planning Secretary Ernesto Pernia vowed a "golden age" for infrastructure.
Among the infrastructure projects which the government plans to build starting 2017 include:
- Manila-Clark Railway - The project guarantees one hour travel from Metro Manila to Clark International Airport once completed.
- Iloilo-Guimaras-Negros-Cebu Link Bridge - Traveling via bus or car to the islands of Iloilo, Guimaras, Negros, and Cebu will be possible.
- Mindanao Railway - This railway project will shorten travel time from Davao to Surigao and from Davao to Cagayan de Oro to two hours. — NB/BAP, GMA News
