Recognizing the need for a solid “one voice for one destination” vision in promoting investments, the partnership is anchored on a unified and enhanced investment promotions program for Bohol and Tagbilaran City. “The government must work with the business sector, civil society, and other stakeholders to achieve sustainable development,” said Bohol Governor Edgardo Chatto. “The private sector is an important driver of growth,” he added. “As the province prepares for the influx of more tourists and businesses with the opening of the new international airport in Panglao in 2018 and the completion of infrastructure projects in Tagbilaran City, the more we need to synchronize our efforts to reach our potential as an economic growth hub in the region.” The partnership was the result of a series of workshops on investment promotion organized by the U.S. Embassy Manila’s U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), through its Strengthening Urban Resilience for Growth with Equity (SURGE) Project, in Tagbilaran City. The BCCI will take the lead in aggressive investment promotions for the province and Tagbilaran City, drawing foreign direct investments that can bring in more jobs and revenues. Governor Chatto will issue an Executive Order to create the Tripartite Technical Working Group. “The tripartite partnership signifies the public and private sectors’ commitment to building a mutually beneficial economic relationship... read more

Atty. Victor de la Serna states that the issue of the Drainage Outfall is still the City Government’s responsibility. He adds that Gov. Erico Aumentado’s stand to “Close the Drainage” is correct, especially now that the City Mayor’s stand is constantly changing in regards to the Drainage Outfall Issue. De la Serna recommends that the city government must also check other areas in the city affected by the outfall. International Ship Captain Jude Mendez said that the rise in waste and flooding just can’t be helped by opening the drainage. He suggests that the floodwater will be thrown to the quarry instead of just letting it flow through the drainage outfall which directly faces the Tagbilaran City Port to avoid further pollution. While Aumentado awaits the final recommendation from Department of Environment and Natural Resources Sec. Lito Atienza in his letter to “Close the Outfall” after lab results from San Carlos University showed a huge presence of coliforms. This decision to close the drainage was rapidly done to save the Tagbilaran Bay from furthermore damage. Aumentado adds that this issue would have been easily evaded if the City Government stayed true to their word of creating a Waste Water Treatment Facility& Recycling Plant and as well as fixing the problems in regards to the drainage such as illegal sewage...National News
