Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, July 16) “Golden Age of Infrastructure.”
This was President Rodrigo Duterte’s promise to Filipinos during his State of the Nation Address (SONA) in July 2017.
He vowed to attain this vision in the coming years to enhance mobility and connectivity in the entire Philippines.
The president believes more infrastructure will spur equitable economic development in the country.
“In other words, we are going to Build, Build and Build,” the chief executive told Congress during his second SONA. Build, build, build literally means a slew of priority infrastructure programs, activities, and projects.
For Nonito Rodillado, who plies the roads daily as a jeepney driver in Quezon City, these projects matter.
