Poro Point’s growth potential pitched to Taiwan business community

Banking on a young workforce, improved accessibility, growth potential and investor-friendly laws, Poro Point Freeport Zone (PPFZ) in La Union is being pitched to the Taiwan business community as a strategically located, emerging economic hub in the Philippines.

The Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA), together with its partners, has hosted a series of roadshows and webinars to showcase the country’s new growth centers, including Poro Point and New Clark City in Tarlac, to foreign businesses and investors.

Affordable, multi-tenure, resilient housing to be built in New Clark City

A 34.55-hectare affordable, multi-tenure and climate-resilient housing project will soon rise at New Clark City in Capas, Tarlac, in an effort to create a community for all regardless of age, background and income. 

To be located in downtown New Clark City, the housing program will be divided into five phases and will feature a river park, town center, community square, sports park, pocket parks as well as mixed-use residential and commercial developments. All of these will be connected to bus rapid transit and metro rail transit systems, among others. 

First phase of New Clark City to Clark Airport access road completed

The Php 3.70-billion first phase of the 19.83-kilometer, six-lane road project connecting New Clark City (NCC) to Clark International Airport has been completed. 

Delivery of this 5.33-kilometer segment of the Clark International Airport to NCC Access Road project will provide faster and easier access to the gateway’s new passenger terminal – a cornerstone of the administration’s Build Build Build program. Part of the project’s first phase is the iconic 900-meter bridge crossing the Sacobia River in Bamban, Tarlac.
