PGMA in town to check on multi-million Iloilo road works
Fresh from yesterday’s State Of the Nation Address (SONA), President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo is coming in today to check on multi-million Iloilo road works.
As planned, the President will visit the Oton-Mambog-Caboloan-Abilay-San Jose-San Miguel road network leading to the New Iloilo Airport. With 97.09 percent in work accomplishment, President Arroyo will be met by Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Regional Director Rolando Asis.
The other project that will be visited is the P57.9 million Camanggahan Bridge connecting First District towns of Guimbal and Tubungan. As such, First District Representative Janette Loreto Garin is expected to join President Arroyo.
“The construction and upgrading of roads nationwide is one of the targets set by President Arroyo in her SONA with the Strong Republic Nautical Highways as banner project,” a news release sent by the Philippine Information Agency (PIA) went.
