  • Development Coordination
    Malolos-Clark Railway Project (RRP PHI 52083) DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION A. Major Development Partners: Strategic Foci and Key Activities 1. Major development partners in the Philippines transport sector are the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the Government of Australia, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), the United Kingdom, and the World Bank (Table 1). The Republic of Korea (ROK) and the People’s Republic of China (PRC) have also supported the country with transport infrastructure. Before its 2008 merger with JICA, the Japan Bank for International Cooperation provided substantial support for the transport sector. The development partners are united in supporting the national spatial strategy of the Philippine Development Plan (PDP), 2017–2022.1 ADB focuses on supporting the road and rail subsectors, and plays a supporting role in addressing governance, institutional capacity, and the low productivity of transport agencies. In addition to supporting the road subsector, ADB has extended assistance, together with JICA, for rail subsector projects. In the rail subsector, ADB and JICA will cofinance a series of projects that will eventually create investment opportunities for other cofinanciers, including private sector investors.

  • 4 Ka Rason Nganong Angayang Palagputon Si Duterte
    4 ka rason nganong angayang palagputon si Duterte Kagawaran sa Impormasyon Partido Komunista ng Pilipinas Hulyo 2019 obra na ang tiranikong paghari ug terorismo ni Rodrigo Duterte. Dili moubos sa upat ang pinakadakung hinungdan kung nganong kinahanglan na siyang palag- puton sa pwesto. Bugtong sa pagpalagpot kaniya sa pwesto ug pagpanubag ka- Sniya sa iyang mga kalapasan ug krimen makatikang paabante ang katawhang Pilipino. Walay kaulaw ang pagluhod ni Duterte sa mga langyaw. Pakana lang ang iyang “inde- pendyenteng palisiyang panggawas.” Ang tinuod, nagpagamit siya sa duha ka dagkung ga- hum aron magpabilin sa poder ug palapdon ang interes sa pinakasuod kaniya. Siya ang nu- mero unong papet sa imperyalistang US ug bayaran sa China. Layong nalabwan na niya ang rekord sa kanhing diktaduryang Marcos ug kapareho ni- yang kawatan nga si Arroyo sa kadaghanon sa mga gipapatay sulod sa mubo nga panahon. Gigamit niya ang tibuok makinarya sa estado, gikan sa sangay sa ehekutibo hangtud lehis- latibo ug hudisyal, ingonman ang tibuok burukrasyang sibil ug militar, aron palanaton ang paghari sa iyang pundok ug makamonopolyo sa pinakadakung kapuslanan. Ilalum sa iyang paghari, nag-antus ang katawhan tungod sa kawad-on sa disenteng suhulan, trabaho ug panginabuhian, ingonman sa maayong serbisyong pangpubliko. Giga- mit lang niya ang lehitimong mga mulo ug pangayo sa katawhan aron ilusot ang makilang- yaw ug makikapitalistang mga pakana. Labaw pa niyang ginapuga ang pinakakabus nga Pi- lipino aron pondohan ang mga programang Build, Build, Build nga ginakurakot sa iyang pa- milya ug ginapahimuslan sa pinakaadunahang Pilipino. Si Duterte ang pinakagikasilagan nga dagway sa burukrata-kapitalismo sa kasamta- ngan.

Outline of Survey 1.1 Background For over 40 years since the 1970’s, Japan had provided a wide range of support for Philippine infrastructure projects, including the preparation of flood control plans which targeted mainly the major rivers in Metro Manila, the implementation of ODA loan projects, and technical assistance to the central government agencies. Regarding river floods, after the Mangahan Floodway was completed in 1988, JICA had implemented the “Study on Flood Control and Drainage Projects in Metro Manila” (1988 to 1991), and the “Pasig-Marikina River Channel Improvement Project” (the Project) was selected as a highly urgent project to implement flood management measures in the Pasig-Marikina River.
