Plans afoot to transfer PAF out of Clark

CLARK FREEPORT–An official of the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) announced over the weekend that the national government is planning to transfer the Philippine Air Force (PAF), particularly the “Air Force City” to Cubi Point in Subic to free at least 360 hectares of prime lands inside the freeport zone.

This was gleaned from BCDA President and CEO Arnel Paciano D. Casanova at the weekly “Balitaan sa Bale Balita” of the Capampangan in Media, Inc. here.

The vast land of the Air Force City was allocated to the 600th air base wing under an agreement between the BCDA and the Department of National Defense and hosts of other air force units.

“The BCDA is eyeing the transfer of the Philippine Air Force in Clark to enable us to utilize more lands for leasing. We plan to implement this during the term of President Benigno Aquino,” Casanova told journalists present during the briefing.

Casanova said that BCDA is keen in developing this world-class Freeport by assuring future investors and locators of more lands here for leasing.

In relation to this, the BCDA, as early as March last year, began the competitive bidding process for the master planning of some 36,000 hectares of the Clark Special Economic Zone (CSEZ) that when completed will make Clark a beautiful, highly-integrated, high-tech, green community where Bonifacio Global City meets Silicon Valley amidst a lush greenery.

He said the new master plan for the CSEZ will position Clark as the investment destination in Southeast Asia.

BCDA INVESTMENTS
In a related development, the BCDA has already invested P33.8 billion in Central Luzon to create opportunities for investment and employment in Region 3.

Casanova said the state-run BCDA has dramatically improved the investment landscape in Central Luzon by providing the much needed funds for the development of the Clark Freeport and its adjacent communities.

Of the P33.8 billion, funding worth P30.68 billion was used in the construction of the 94-kilometer Subic Clark Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx)–dubbed the most modern tollway connecting the Subic Bay Freeport Zone and the Clark Freeport.

The BCDA also infused P1.28 billion in the Clark Development Corporation (CDC) and P1.53 billion in the CDC’s 230kv transmission project. Another P1.25 billion was invested in the Clark International Airport Corporation while some P342.2 million were used to fund the construction of roads in Bataan, Pampanga and Tarlac.

Casanova also announced the BCDA’s newest project in Central Luzon is the creation of a new urban area half the size of Metro Manila–the 35,000-hectare Clark Green City situated at the Clark Special Economic Zone, which is expected to be launched in 2014.

He said “Clark Green City will be environmentally sustainable, socially inclusive, economically competitive, culturally relevant, and technologically intergrated.”

Casanova added that the project “will generate billions in investments and generate thousands of jobs.”
“BCDA, together with its subsidiaries, CDC and CIAC, is committed to actively pursue the development of Central Luzon.

The development of Central Luzon is not merely a local or regional concern, it is a matter of national interest,” Casanova stressed.
