  • Order Received to Supply 240 Train Cars for Philippines' Metro Manila Subway
    Press Release December 21, 2020 Sumitomo Corporation Japan Transport Engineering Company Order Received to Supply 240 Train Cars for Philippines’ Metro Manila Subway First Subway Project in the Philippines Sumitomo Corporation (Head Office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director, President and Chief Executive Officer: Masayuki Hyodo) and Japan Transport Engineering Company (Head Office: Yokohama-shi, Kanagawa Prefecture; President and Representative Director: Takao Nishiyama; hereinafter, “J-TREC”) have received an order from the Department of Transportation (DOTr) of the Republic of the Philippines to supply 240 train cars for the contract package CP107 of the country’s Metro Manila Subway Project Phase 1 (between Quezon City in the north and Parañaque City in the south). The CP107 contract was signed on December 15, 2020. Sumitomo Corporation and J-TREC received this order following the order to supply 104 train cars for the North-South Commuter Railway Project in July 2019. In the Metropolitan Manila area, where the population continues to grow due to rapid economic growth, population concentration is causing traffic congestion and air pollution that are becoming more serious year by year. Building efficient and economical public transportation networks is a pressing issue. To fully develop its infrastructure, the Philippines government is promoting a large-scale infrastructure development plan called “Build Build Build,” in which the Metro Manila Subway Project is considered a core project. The CP107 project is to be undertaken as part of the Official Development Assistance (ODA) program of Japan based on a loan aid agreement between the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) and the Philippines government. The Philippines’ first subway project (a total of 17 stations, including 13 underground stations, and covering approximately 36 kilometers) aims to connect the northern city of Quezon to the southern city of Parañaque in the Metropolitan Manila area.

Don’t let a “good” crisis go to waste: One-upmanship in local responses to the COVID-19 pandemic Julian Thomas B. Alvareza, Jahm Mae E. Guintoa,b, Joseph J. Capunob† aAsian Development Bank bUniversity of the Philippines Abstract Unlike in previous crises, the COVID-19 pandemic has wrought a crisis affecting all population groups, all economic sectors and all jurisdictions in the Philippines, as elsewhere. The impact of the COVID-19 vary across localities, however, partly due to differences in local government responses to the pandemic. Our objective is to examine the patterns in the types and timing of local responses among neighboring local government units (cities) for evidence of one- upmanship among their incumbent leaders (mayors). We assembled data for 25 selected cities and then grouped them into 28 neighborhood clusters. Using three indicators, we measure the immediacy, primacy and distinctiveness of the local responses within each cluster over the period March 2020-March 2021. Of the 28 clusters, we find in 19 (67.9 percent) evidence of one- upmanship consistent with the view that the type and timing of local responses are driven by mayors who wish to signal their talents and abilities.
