Bohol leaders lobbied to Pres. Benigno Simeon C. Aquino III for the realization of the Panglao-Bohol International Airport Development Project (PBIADP).
The Provincial Development Council (PDC), Provincial Peace and Order Council (PPOC), Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP), and League of Municipalities of the Philippines (LMP)-Bohol have passed a joint resolution earnestly requesting President Aquino to carry on the project.
Governor Edgar Chatto had earlier moved for passage of said resolution.
Chatto, who serves concurrently as PDC Chair, will preside over the first PDC meeting later this week in his residence in Del Carmen Weste, Balilihan on Thursday in time for the town fiesta.
An update on the completion of the Panglao International Airport project is certain to be one of the “priority concerns” that Chatto intends to discuss with the new set of provincial officials, including the three congressmen.
Former Governor and now Rep. Erico Aumentado was in Manila last week to deliver a copy of the PDC resolution to the Office of the President in Malacañang.
He said he had also asked the most probable next Speaker of the House, Quezon City 4th District Rep. Feliciano Belmonte of the ruling Liberal Party, for his help in endorsing the project with President Aquino.
The Panglao Airport, has been in “extremely long gestation, having taken over 20 years to get into the verge of completion – from conceptualization to the expected implementation next year.
In the resolution, the PDC full council pointed out that the necessity for having the international airport in Panglao Island “has long been expressed across many sectors and stakeholders of the Boholano community, and its urgency is evidenced not just by the exponentially increasing tourist arrivals…, but also by the congestion of passengers and planes in the current Tagbilaran Airport, as well as its hazardous landing conditions, being located right in the midst of residential and commercial districts.”
The PDC also noted that the project was already about to be awarded to a winning bidder in the last days of the Arroyo administration and Chatto’s provincial administration intends to get the assurance of President Aquino’s support to have it continued.

All set for June 30 inauguration
PRESIDENT-elect Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino’s transition team has already smoothed out kinks in the inauguration on June 30, an event that will be made meaningful by several traditions shelved during the Martial Law years.
The inauguration, which will revolve around the theme “Tagumpay ng Taumbayan, Panata sa Pagbabago,” is expected to be observed by millions around the world.
According to Aquino’s camp, there will be a prayer services at 6 in the morning at the Aquino home in Times Street. At 9:45 a.m., Aquino will depart for Malacañang to fetch Arroyo. Arroyo and Aquino’s arrival at Quirino Grandstand will be at 10:45 a.m. Arroyo will be honored by the Armed Forces of the Philippines upon arriving at the venue. She will then exit “gracefully” while her successor moves up the stage.
The formal inaugural ceremony is expected to start at exactly 11:00 a.m. with the singing of the national anthem. At around 1:00 p.m., Aquino will finally head to Malacañang.
Inauguration spokesman Manuel “Manolo” L. Quezon III earlier said “the president-elect is not much of a traditionalist, but you realize that these rituals exist to make the transition more dignified for all concerned and you’re dealing with an office larger than any person.”
The inauguration will be a symbol of sorts, as this would be peppered with traditions that were abolished or replaced during former President Ferdinand E. Marcos’ time. The Aquino family was instrumental in overthrowing the dictatorship.

Joint councils endorse for North-east Bohol growth
OTHER than Panglao Airport Project, which was endorsed for continued support by the new Administration, majority of Bohol’s next development would be gyrating off to the island’s northeastern towns.
And if the proposed projects get implemented, it would seem that the general region comprised of the cluster of towns from Clarin to Ubay would be the next economic growth center in the island.
At the recent meeting of Bohol’s key development councils including the Provincial Peace and Order, Sangguniang Panlalawigan and the League of Municipalities of the Philippines, the joint council meeting endorsed the $3M Compact loan for the Ubay Airport Development project by Korean Official Development Assistance with the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines as project proponent.
Also endorsed was the P38M Bohol Holistic Enterprise for Livestock based Livelihood Opportunities (Hello) for funding under the Korean International Cooperation Agency (KoICA), an integrated poverty alleviation intervention that would be implemented mostly in the region’s poverty saddled towns.
Head of project implementer, Dr. Stella Marie Lapiz said the project would benefit families in San Isidro, Danao, Dagohoy, San Miguel, Trinidad, Bien Unido, Sagbayan, Clarin, Inabanga, Buenavista, Getafe, Talibon, Ubay and President Garcia.
Part of the endorsed projects which concentrates on the second district of Bohol is the three bridges proposed for the Tulay ng Pangulo which are all located in the Mabini-Ubay road namely Pasanan, Biabas and Ondol bridges, at an aggregate cost of P61M and following the Austrian Assisted Bridges Program.
Moreover, the councils also pushed for the inclusion of the Bohol Dairy Production and Meat processing the in the Korea-Philippine Multi-Industry Cluster Agreement. The center was initially identified to be placed at the Ubay Stock Farm.
Other than those, also resolved was the request for the Philippine Ports Authority to jumpstart soonest the Ubay Port Causeway to its highway access to avoid traffic jams and accidents in its present access.
Meanwhile, the P500M Ubay Port development, a component of the Strong Republic Nautical Highways has just been completed and now effectively connects the town to the neighboring islands by ferry boats.
Govenor Erico Aumenatdo however stressed that the proposed development would spur economic activity and would pluck the people from the harsh poverty situation in the region.

Mga magpatigayon sa asukal gipasidan-an
ANG pangulo sa Sugar Regulatory Authority kon SRA seryoso gayud sa paggukod sa mga magpalabi og pagginansiya ug ni insister nga walay rason nga mosaka ang presyo sa asukal.
Matud pa ni Administrator Bernardo C. Trebol nga ang nasud aduna pay igong supply sa asukal ug nilalis nga ang naghinobrang pagsaka sa presyo sa asukar nagpasabot nga may mga magpapatigayon nga nagpalabi og pangganansiya.
Gibalik ni Trebol ang nahiunang pahayag sa SRA nga dakpon ug ikiha nila ang mga masakpan niini.
Gi hisgutan ni Trebol ang pag-abot sa 150,000 tonelada metrikang imported nga asukar ubos sa National Food Authority’s Tax Expenditure Subsidy ug ang dugang 100,000 tonelada metrika nga igo na sa panginahanglanon sa mga konsumedor sa nasud.
Ang maong importasyon gituyo sa pagtulay sa supply gikan karon hangtud na sa Nobyembre, diin magsugod ang panahon sa paggaling.
Sa sayo pa, ang SRA ni angkon nga adunay igong inventory sa mga warehouse ug ni insister nga kon adunay pagsaka sa presyo sa asukar, hinimo ra kini sa mga magpapatigayon nga nagpalabi og pangganansiya.
