Bills renaming MCIA after Lapu-Lapu opposed

(MANILA BULLETIN FILE PHOTO)
Deputy Speaker and Cebu Rep. Pablo John Garcia said there is no “compelling reason” to change the airport’s name as he pointed out that this move would only “erase more than 50 years of history of the airport.”
Garcia called on the House Committee on Transportation to also consider the position of other provincial leaders, more in particular officials of the provincial government now headed by his sister, Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia.
However, Garcia is facing a formidable force of supporters of the measure that includes Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea and Speaker Lord Allan Velasco, who co-authored one of the pending bills.
