Philippines' Infrastructure Revolution: Top 3 Projects You Need to Know

Welcome to the next chapter of the Philippines' grand narrative in infrastructure development! In this video, we delve deep into the intriguing stories shaping the nation's destiny.
The North-South Commuter Railway (NSCR):
Get ready to explore a groundbreaking transportation network that's set to revolutionize the way people commute between Manila and neighboring provinces. The North-South Commuter Railway is a 147-kilometer rail project that promises to reduce travel times by up to 80%. But it's not without its share of challenges and opportunities.
Sangley Point International Airport:
Discover the construction of Sangley Point International Airport, a game-changer in the Philippines' aviation scene. With the aim to ease congestion at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA), this project is set to make the country a major hub for global connectivity. However, it comes with its unique set of challenges, particularly in terms of balancing infrastructure expansion and environmental conservation.
Davao-Samal Bridge:
Lastly, we'll take you to the Davao-Samal Bridge, a 4.3-kilometer marvel connecting Davao City to Samal Island. As part of the 'Build, Build, Build' initiative, this bridge is set to reduce travel times and promote economic activities. But it's not without its environmental concerns and opportunities for job creation.

Philippines slowly but surely RISING AGAIN 💪🔥💪

[@user-louisfonsi777]

I am not Filipino. However, as someone who loves the Philippines, I hope that the Philippines will develop further. Infrastructure is very important, but I wish the government would also provide support for the residential environment of low-income Filipinos. Drainage and electrical facilities are very poor and dangerous, costing countless lives. Stable prices and salary commensurate with prices should be regulated by the country to ensure that all Filipinos I hope you get paid a fair amount. Love philippines~❤❤

[@estelitamartin6793]

I totally agree

[@estelitamartin6793]

Philippines need housing for low income families.

[@berniepascua9218]

Well this admin already started the housing. The projects targeting 1 million houses every year and total of 6 million homes in 6 yrs of his term.

[@karma_is_a_bitch6016]

I've been wishing for a train to tarlac to get on pampanga or manila because bus is so hectic to deal for me. Lol and the travel is very long. Hopefully the whole PHILIPPINES is connected through train so pilipino won't need a vehicles specially people who doesn't have one. So they can still travel riding the train. All over PH. And hopefully the train made in Japan than China.

[@TomBTerrific]

Your bigger challenge will be operating and maintaining the system after it’s operational. Unfortunately the Filipino government and it’s people don’t have a very good history in these areas.

I like the Coastal Road in Davao and the incomplete FLYOVER. Improvement of the International airports should be a definite plan.

[@EC4U2C_Studioz]

For the airport, the one in Bulacan called the New Manila International Airport between NAIA and Clark Airports is under construction and is expected to do a phased opening approach by 2027. I don’t know if they will upgrade Sangley Point.

We know what we can get from gas and oil reserves. We should tap it, put up capital and obviously it will benifit our country not other. If others will put up capital they will control it the price also will be in their control. So what can we get?

[@cinemaveritae]

At 9:12 ... "improve air pollution and traffic congestion." Meaning? Or should it be "improve air quality and decongest traffic?"

[@EconomyTalkNews]

improve traffic congestion means decongesting the traffic

[@SelwynClydeAlojipan]

The country should also plan for futuristic multi-modal transportation but nobody is thinking about it. For instance, a small car or van should be easy to load into a railway car, a large truck, or a ferry so it would be relatively easy to connect and off-load from one island to another. Such vehicles can be semi-robotic or automated and have either people or cargo loaded into it. There is a need for railway lines and bus or truck terminals to connect the major seaports and airports to each other or else it will be expensive and difficult to develop local industry, manufacturing, business, and tourism.

[@folag]

I'm looking forward to the start of construction of the Manila-Tarlac commuter rail road in 2025, and its completion in 2030. completion

[@berniepascua9218]

The Railway construction that was started are the Clark-Bulacan-Cavite if I'm not mistaken. But because china are struggling for funds plus WPS issue I think the project was halted. But PBBM already stop the cooperation with china and now negotiating with Japan as I perceived.

[@bornonjuly7052]

Sangley airport maybe delayed including the Samal bridge.

[@rbhebron]

it is sad to note that there is no planned transport infra to address passengers going & coming frm sangley point proposed airport.. it will be difficult for both local & tourists to travel via the sangley point airport.. perhaps an express train would also be appropriate.. the bulacan airport already planned a train system frm bulacan to metro manila.. why not the sangley point as well .

[@erver6665]

Build now for future of Philippines… cost of Contruction’s double every five years Get a big loan to all project

[@lochinvar50]

They have been trumpeting this Sangley ad infinitum. To date, not even one square meter is being reclaimed from the bay.

[@erver6665]

Better build now … every year the cost of building is going up up up Find investors institutions for funding immediately. In five year the cost gonna be double ….

[@SelwynClydeAlojipan]

Is there a railway connection to the Sangley Point International Airport, the new airport in Bulacan, and the NAIA? If not, why isn't there? What's wrong with the conceptualization of these plans?

[@berniepascua9218]

It's easier to talk than get it done. A project needs thorough planning and considers the cost and viability of all the projects . Take consideration of our status as archipelagic Nation. Budgets are the one of the main factors. We are slowly coming to that area. We are the one to be blame of what we are. We are voting politicians that are good in talking but doesn't have the political will to create projects that are beneficial to the people.

[@jolibedano6970]

The Phil should have a modern and highly technologically advance airforce and navy. We need to protect the country resources from chinese agression in the west philippine sea. Make our military the most technologically advance in Asia.

Watch out for the Philippines. The government's focus on education is paying off. Younger generations are becoming highly educated and skilled which will of course lead to higher income jobs. That will have a huge impact to the economy for sure. Soon there will be no more Filipinos applying for domestic helpers or nanny.

[@DuaneDonaldson]

The rail once ran where it will be reinstalled near Clark. New Clark City is much owned by Politicians and Government Officials, why not funnel business to the area and a couple of prior Presidents' family is from Tarlac. The Sangley airport will sink over time, look at Japan's reclaimed land airport, the PI will not do a better job. I cannot speak of the bridge, no opinion, I love the Philippines but important high-level folks will make out on these deals for sure. Hopefully, in the future, the rail will run further North to San Fernando and beyond, The rich will get richer, the poor will remain poor, and the average land owner who can sell to foreigners (with a Filipina wife) will make out nicely as housing prices in these areas will increase exponentially, cheers. MABUHAY, Its More Fun In The Philippines, all people, buy a condo apartment (Investment $100KUSD+) NOW.

[@wenzeltamayo7439]

Read up on induced demand, and come back here. The mentality of adding "just one more lane" or "just one more highway" is not going to solve traffic woes sustainably.

[@jojojanolo3530]

Elevated highways will only benefit the few, we need more people movers aka trains

[@keurikeuri7851]

What Philippines needs is controlling private vehicle ownership just like what they did in Singapore. Making a new road is just a temporary solution and eventually traffic will eventually come back since everyday many new private vehicles are entering the road. And making skyways is just a waste of funds because now some rich countries are starting to demolish their freeways/skyways because they realized it is more expensive to maintain it than building public support infrastructures. Imagine if we kept on building skyways now but eventually our next generations will just demolish it.

[@bonifacioresurreccion8710]

According to the current administration, THEY not the Chinese called it off, preferring to deal with the Japanese and Indians instead, and in accordance with the US's instructions.

[@keurikeuri7851]

​@@folag What the current administration said was sadly they had to cancel it because China took too long to approved the loan. The government never said they cancel it because they prefer other countries instead of China. They had to cancel it so that they will have a chance to start another biddings for the projects instead of waiting for China. If you read the news in August 2023 the first time China didn't initially approve the loan, the Philippine government said they were in continuous talks with China to again allow the loan, this took until October were the government announced the cancellation.
