"Yung Bulacan airport, hindi pwedeng hindi gawin yun kasi yun ang pag-asa ng Pilipinas para umunlad ang bayan. Pag tumakbo ang Bulacan airport, you will open up Central Luzon," he said.
(We cannot 'not' open up Bulacan airport because that is the Philippines' hope for national progress. Once Bulacan airport is up and running, you will open up Central Luzon.)
SMC earlier disclosed that the airport project is facing delays due to the lack of sand being used as a backfill. Ang said the government is helping them address the issue.
Once opened, the Bulacan airport is seen to boost economic growth in nearby provinces such as Bulacan, Pampanga, Tarlac and Nueva Ecija, Ang said.
