Senate OKs House bill recognizing Santo Tomas as a city of Batangas

Voting 19-0, the Senate yesterday approved on third and final reading a measure emanating from the House of Representatives that seeks to convert the municipality of Santo Tomas in the province of Batangas into a component city.

Sen. Juan Edgardo “Sonny” Angara, chair of the Senate committee on local government, sponsored House Bill 5160, which recognizes Santo Tomas as a city.

“Like the national hero Miguel Malvar, a native of this town and among the first of countless Filipino revolutionaries, Sto. Tomas is also leading the way towards progress among local government units,” Angara said.

The senator said the “thriving” town of Santo Tomas was one of the most populous in the whole country, and clearly met the population requirement indicated by the Local Government Code.

The lawmaker added the Bureau of Local Government Finance (BLGF) has certified the municipality’s average annual income at more than P230 million, which is also well above the required amount for conversion.

Santo Tomas also hosts a 600-megawatt solar panel factory — the first of its kind in the country, and a multinational paints supplier factory that would produce paints for many industries.

“If we provide enough resources for flourishing towns like Santo Tomas, then more Filipinos are given the chance to relish this bountifulness,” Angara said.

According to Angara, a great part of national development is dependent “on the quality and capacity of the country’s local government units.”

“Our national government agencies have drawn economic plans that entail the expansion of the economy outside urbanized cities to dissipate concentrated gains,” he said.

“But to accomplish this goal requires solid foundations, not just of the national agencies, but also of our local governments,” Angara stressed.

Senate approves cityhood of Sto. Tomas town in Batangas

Lawmakers in the plenary express their support and agreement to convert Sto. Tomas into a city, making it the 4th city in the province of Batangas

With a vote of 19-0, the Senate unanimously approved last Monday (March 19) the passage of House Bill 5160 or “An Act Converting the Municipality of Sto. Tomas in the Province of Batangas into a Component City to be known as City of Sto. Tomas”.

Lawmakers in the plenary expressed their support and agreement to convert Sto. Tomas into a city, making it the 4th city in the province of Batangas.

Local government officials headed by Sto. Tomas Mayor Edna P. Sanchez, together with Vice Mayor Armenius O. Silva and members of the local council, came in full force to thank Senator Juan Edgardo Angara, Committee Chairman of the Committee on Local Government, for sponsoring the bill and ensuring its passage during the third and final reading.

The move for the conversion of Sto. Tomas into a city started in 2015 when it was proposed by then 3rd District Batangas Congressman Nelson P. Collantes.

Sto. Tomas has an average annual income of P230 million as certified by the Department of Finance and a population of 179,844 as certified by the Philippine Statistics Authority.

It occupies a total of 10,032 hectares, as certified by the Land Management Bureau.

Once signed by President Rodrigo Duterte, the law will be published and will be subject to a plebiscite to allow all the members of the electorate to participate in the democratic process.

Local officials are confident that residents of the town will embrace the development as it promises to bring more opportunities, more jobs and greater progress to Sto. Tomas.

Tangled web of confusion

Anyone who has gone through the experience of building a house or undertaking a major renovation knows how frustrating it is to make sure things go well according to plan. There are so many moving parts and anything can go wrong at any time. It’s usually a tangled web of confusion.

It is also an absolute test of your people management skills. It doesn’t mean that just because you have a contractor, you can relax. You have to be on top of the project all the time to make sure you are progressing as scheduled.

I can imagine how more immensely difficult it is to supervise a multi-billion peso infrastructure project like that elevated expressway that will connect the north and south expressway. This is why San Miguel has an in-house staff and consultants to make sure things are moving.

But it isn’t that simple. It helped that San Miguel divided the project between two of the country’s top and most dependable contractors, DMCI and EEI. But even then, there were problems right from the start.

They were delayed about six months because a supermarket refused to let them work in the land adjacent to it. The owner just didn’t like the idea of an expressway right next to it.

For a project as big as this one, every day of delay costs lots of money. I understand that the elevated expressway should have been delivered late last year. But there had been so much delay for so many reasons. We will be lucky if we can use the portion from Buendia to Paco by December. Essentially, right of way problems have been causing significant delays that will cost users higher tolls.

One reaction I received last week says problematic project execution is a third world thing.

“Yes, it is doable to complete the viaduct of the SMC connector road along Osmeña highway from Buendia to the intersection of Quirino avenue and Osmeña highway by the end of 2018 (the remaining effective work time is actually from April to November 2018; when the month of December starts, there is hardly any work activity in the construction area until mid January the following year).

“The steel girders in the corner of Buendia Avenue and Osmeña highway were uploaded from Jan. 15 to March 15, 2018. And there are still two portions within this stretch where concrete girders are still to be uploaded.

“I am sure the big bosses of DPWH and DOTr are eagerly looking forward to inaugurate the Buendia to Quirino portion of the viaduct for PR purposes.  However, it is puzzling why the construction of the northbound ramp after the intersection of Buendia Avenue and Osmeña highway (it is almost finished) is being prioritized when there is no exit ramp being constructed at the Paco station end of the viaduct.

“On the other hand, the southbound entry ramp at the corner of Zobel Roxas street and Osmeña highway is not being constructed (but they have cordoned the middle lane in that stretch and construction materials like the cylindrical steel pipes that form the foundation of the ramp pillars are just lying in the middle of the road). There is no ROW issue in this portion of the construction site.

“If a southbound entry ramp can be constructed at the corner of Zobel Roxas street and Osmeña highway (or at the corner of Quirino avenue and Osmeña highway) then motorists can use this Quirino-Buendia portion to travel all the way to Alabang when this viaduct is hopefully completed by December 2018.”

I asked the contractor, DMCI, but they were not very communicative. All I could get is the information that they are awaiting further instructions from San Miguel and TRB.

Other sources say the original viaduct design does not have a down ramp at Paco Station and an up ramp at Zobel Roxas intersection, but San Miguel has indicated they want this. A minimum of eight months would be necessary to complete the ramps from notice to proceed.

I texted Ramon Ang and he replied that there are no outstanding issues that must be resolved by San Miguel. He said the segment would be delivered for sure by December.

Hmmm… I would normally believe RSA because he is a micromanager who knows the tiniest details of progress in his projects. But I wonder if he is aware of problems being faced by NGCP in getting their right of way so their poles can be relocated and construction of the elevated expressway can go full blast.

An academic observer wrote me to say execution of this project “validates the infrastructure experience in developing countries: it is not simply infrastructure spending in isolation; infrastructure build-up efficiency also requires institutional capabilities such as detailed engineering analysis and construction plans, bureaucratic efficiency, and contract enforcement. This explains why the planning and execution of the BBB’s 75 major projects (not just the connector road) are encountering a lot of problems.”

If government and San Miguel really want to deliver the segment by December, they should put up a mechanism for better coordination. Weekly meetings where issues are resolved quickly should be called. It is clear that having competent private sector parties (DMCI, EEI and San Miguel) mean nothing, if relevant government agencies do not act with urgency.

But what can one expect from DOTr? This agency is all about show!

For instance, DOTr had a ground breaking ceremony for the Common Station September last year, but nothing has happened on the ground six months later. I am told they have had two failed biddings due to low government cost estimate compared to reality. So, no contractor yet even if they broke ground.

This means it will be months before anything happens. This is a design and build contract and the design part can only start once the contract is awarded. Yung ground breaking, drama lang ni Tugade.

NAIA Consortium wants to link airport to Metro Manila Subway, LRT1

Part of the consortium's proposal is a transit system or 'people mover' that would connect the Ninoy Aquino International Airport to the planned Metro Manila Subway and existing Light Rail Transit Line 1

All passenger terminals of the nation's busiest gateway, the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), would be accessible via the planned Metro Manila Subway and the existing Light Rail Transit Line 1 (LRT1), should the government push through with the P350-billion NAIA upgrade proposal of 7 local conglomerates.

The NAIA Consortium, which is composed of 7 of the country's biggest conglomerates, seeks to connect NAIA to the planned subway and LRT1 by building a transit system or "people mover."

"It won't necessarily be a monorail. It could be light rail. We target to put it in place by 2022," NAIA Consortium spokesperson Jose Emmanuel Reverente said in a media briefing on Wednesday, March 21.

The transit system would form part of the consortium's P350-billion proposal to upgrade, operate, and maintain NAIA for 35 years.

The 7 partners are Aboitiz InfraCapital Incorporated, AC Infrastructure Holdings Corporation, Alliance Global Group Incorporated, Asia's Emerging Dragon Corporation, Filinvest Development Corporation, JG Summit Holdings Incorporated, and Metro Pacific Investments Corporation.

Singapore's Changi Airports International Private Limited serves as the NAIA Consortium's technical consultant.

"The airport people mover will connect you from NAIA Terminal 1 to Terminal 2, and then underground to Terminal 3," Reverente said.

"You don't have to exit [the] NAIA complex," he added, just to move from one terminal to another.

Citing a Department of Transportation (DOTr) letter dated March 12, the NAIA Consortium said it has hurdled the "completeness review" of the unsolicited proposal. This means its proposal is now being reviewed by the department.

Under the implementing rules and regulations of the build-operate-transfer (BOT) law, the first complete proposal should be evaluated and decided upon. The second complete proposal will only be entertained if the first one is rejected.

The law states that the second complete proposal can be considered if there is a failure in the negotiation of the first proposal.

Should the DOTr reject the NAIA Consortium's proposal, under the law, it will consider and review the unsolicited proposal of another group – listed Megawide Construction Corporation and its Bangalore-based partner GMR Infrastructure Limited.

It was just on March 1 when Megawide and GMR submitted a $3-billion (P155.97-billion), 18-year unsolicited proposal to rehabilitate, develop, operate, and maintain the dilapidated NAIA.

GMR-Megawide's proposal provides a lower project cost and shorter concession period compared to that of the NAIA Consortium, which earmarked P350 billion and set 35 years of concession for the project.

While the NAIA Consortium's proposal provides an option for a 3rd NAIA runway, GMR-Megawide said it is "unviable" to set up another runway at the airport.

"It is urgent for the country to get this project going because doing nothing as a result of a long approval process will set all of us back," Reverente said.

NAIA, designed to handle only 31 million passengers, is expected to accommodate 47 million in 2019. It accommodated a total of 42 million passengers in 2017, data from the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) showed. – Rappler.com

'Super consortium' details P350-billion plan to upgrade NAIA

A consortium of the country's largest conglomerates on Wednesday presented more details on how they plan to transform the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) into a premier gateway terminal or a regional hub.

Part of their plan is to construct a "people mover," which may be in the form of a monorail or light rail that will connect the different terminals at the airport complex.

The P350-billion project aims to improve and expand the current NAIA terminals under the first phase, while the second phase will involve the construction of a new runway and an integrated hub.

The so-called 'super consortium' is made of seven conglomerates, namely: Aboitiz InfraCapital, AC Infrastructure Holdings Corporation, Alliance Global Group, Asia's Emerging Dragon Corporation, Filinvest Development Corporation, JG Summit Holdings, and Metro Pacific Investments Corporation.

The super consortium said the 3-kilometer people mover would help transfer commuters around NAIA's three terminals, and will be linked to LRT-1. A subsidiary of Metro Pacific Investments Corporation, which is part of the group, currently operates the train line.

With the people mover, there will be no need to go outside the NAIA Complex to connect to another NAIA terminal, the group said.

Besides linking to the LRT-1, the group also proposed to make NAIA terminals accessible through the planned Metro Manila subway.

The group also plans to put up larger check-in and baggage areas, more space for well-wishers and walk-through zones, as well as centralized immigration and security zones in Terminals 1 and 3.

The consortium also aims to double the floor area of the terminals to 623,000 square meters from 364,000 sqm.

If it receives the 'Notice to Proceed' by year's end, the group said it plans to increase the airport's passenger capacity from the current 31 million annually to 47 million in 2020, and 65 million in 2022.

"Magiging 50 percent and more overcapacity ng NAIA. Kung wala tayo gawin, nasa 60 million na dadaan sa airport. Kailangan may gawin tayo sa pinakamadaling panahon," said Jose Miguel Reverente, spokesperson of the group.

The second phase of the project involves putting up a third runway parallel to the NAIA's longest runway.

The new runway will be built on reclaimed land in Merville Parañaque, and will have a satellite terminal connected to the people mover.

This integrated hub is designed to accommodate 90 million passengers per year and will have an additional floor area of 610,000 sqm.

The NAIA consortium has tapped Singapore's Changi Airport, which has experience in 59 other airports in various roles, as technical consultant partner.

Reverente said Changi will not compete with the Philippines as a regional hub.

"Changi has their catchment area; there will be no conflict of interest. The consortium is 100 percent Filipino-owned, and we are their client," Reverente said.

Last March 12, the Department of Transportation (DOTr) declared a "complete submission" on the P350-billion offer of the consortium to improve and expand NAIA.

If the DOTr gives "original proponent status" to the NAIA consortium, the offer would go to the National Economic and Development Authority for assessment and approval.

Besides the offer of the super consortium, the government is also entertaining proposals from two other groups.

Filipino-Indian consortium GMR-Megawide is also proposing to upgrade NAIA at the cost of P156.3 billion.

Sangley Airport Infrastructure Group owned by billionaire Henry Sy and media magnate Wilson Tieng, meanwhile, plans to build a new airport at Sangley Point in Cavite at the cost of around $12 billion. 

Katy Perry wants Manila to witness ‘The Tour’

Singer-songwriter Katy Perry makes her comeback to Manila on April 2 at the Mall of Asia Arena. This is part of the Asian leg of “Witness: The Tour” after several added shows in South America and Europe as well as in New Zealand and Australia.

Katy’s concerts have received exceptional reviews from U.S.A Today, the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, the Boston Globe and Billboard, among others.

It’s been said that “Witness” attempts to artistically reveal a more authentic persona, not as Katy Perry, but as Katheryn Hudson. The album “wanders along the shores of riskier territories, exploring new sound, distancing Perry from the animatedly sweet chart-topping hits that made her the pop superstar that she is in this day and age.”

This latest tour is Katy’s first run since the sold-out, 151-date “Prismatic World Tour,” which concluded in 2015 and was hailed by Rolling Stone as “a show to damage retinas and blow minds.”

Two rising pop vocalists Hailee Steinfeld and Tove Styrke would also be witnesses, as they will be opening for her in the coming shows in Europe and the UK.

“One Of The Boys” was Katy’s Capitol Records debut after signing with the label in 2007. She cemented her status as a global superstar with her first No. 1 hit, “I Kissed A Girl,” and the release of the groundbreaking record, “Teenage Dream (2010),” making Katy the first woman in music history to gain five No. 1 hits in a single album.

“PRISM,” her 2013 album, debuted at No. 1 on iTunes in 100 countries and has sold more than 12.5 million adjusted albums worldwide. With the singles “Roar,” “Firework” and “Dark Horse” each surpassing the 10 million threshold. Katy is the first female artist to earn three RIAA Digital Single Diamond Awards. In her 10 years with Capitol, she has racked up a cumulative 18+ billion streams alongside worldwide sales of more than 40+ million adjusted albums and 125+ million tracks. She is the most-followed person on Twitter, and the first to surpass 100 million followers.

“Katy Perry’s Witness: The Tour Live in Manila” is presented by AEG Presents and Ovation Productions.

The Poolside of the newly opened Grand Hyatt Manila was packed with their guests—for a totally fun happening meant for “every kid-at-heart,” said the celebrator.

It was really a time to throw all our inhibitions away and bring out that playful vibe in us, thanks to the master publicist and our King of the Night, Keren.

"Happy birthday Tito Keren, I love you", Robi Domingo said.

Happy happy birthday dear keren ❤️❤️❤️ @kpr313 love you 🎉🎉🎉
