As of early July, we have 205 PPP projects, including those in local government units, under implementation and 143 projects in the <\/span><span class=\"s5\">pipeline,\u201d NEDA Secretary Arsenio M. <\/span><span class=\"s6\">Bali<\/span><span class=\"s3\">sacan was quoted as saying in a state<\/span><span class=\"s6\">ment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Nine PPP projects amounting to P65 billion were added to the pipeline as of July.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cWe are also encouraged to note that more and more social infrastructure projects in health, water and sanitation, as well as solid waste management, are in the pipeline,\u201d Mr. Balisacan added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">The National Government leans on support from the private sector in shouldering its budgetary and infrastructure project implementation shortfalls. It has passed several policies over the past months that seek to create an enabling environment for infrastructure development.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Republic Act No. 11966 or the PPP Code, which took effect in December last year, sought to increase private sector participation in <span class=\"s4\">f<\/span>inancing, operating, and maintaining infrastructure projects.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Under the Marcos administration\u2019s \u201cBuild Better More\u201d program, the government has 185 infrastructure <span class=\"s4\">f<\/span>lagship projects (IFP) valued at P9.54 trillion in the pipeline.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Mr. Balisacan also said that 63 IFPs, including the Pasig-Marikina River channel improvement project, Central Luzon Link Expressway, and the Panguil Bay Bridge project, are currently underway.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">The NEDA chief said 31 more IFPs have been approved for implementation, six are awaiting government approval, and 82 are in the preparation stage.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s1\">The government\u2019s move to allow full foreign ownership in renewable energy projects as well as public utilities like telecommunications, domestic shipping, railways, subways, airlines, expressways, tollways and airports, is expected to increase foreign investments in infrastructure, Mr. Balisacan said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">To fast-track implementation of infrastructure projects, the NEDA chief said there is a need to streamline and enhance processes and speed up the acquisition of right of way.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">In April, President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. also signed Executive Order (EO) No. 59 to fast-track the processing of permits for infrastructure flagship projects.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cBy expanding and upgrading our infrastructure, we aim to create enabling conditions for high-quality job creation for millions of Filipinos, raise the competitiveness of our local industries, diversify our growth drivers to strengthen economic resilience, and enhance regional connectivity by linking our leading and lagging regions,\u201d Mr. Balisacan said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Terry L. Ridon, a public investment analyst and convenor of think tank InfraWatch PH, said the pace of implementation of IFPs would depend on government agencies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cWith legislation and policy frameworks in place, faster infrastructure development will now be determined by capable leadership of infrastructure agencies,\u201d he said in a Viber message.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cThis leadership has not been apparent in the Transportation department with only one concluded PPP (Ninoy Aquino International Airport rehabilitation) by the President\u2019s State of the Nation Address (in July.) The public is still waiting for its urgent action on the EDSA (Epifanio de los Santos Avenue) busway and MRT-3 (Metro Rail Transit Line 3) PPPs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">In May, the PPP Center said that its evaluation of Megawide Construction Corp.\u2019s unsolicited proposal for the EDSA busway system is nearing completion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">The Department of Transportation also said it is reviewing the terms of reference for the auction of MRT-3\u2019s operations and maintenance contract by the <span class=\"s4\">f<\/span>irst quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Rizal Commercial Banking Corp. Chief Economist Michael L. Ricafort said the government has implemented several measures, including the establishment of \u201cgreen lanes,\u201d to attract more investors in the Philippines.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">As of June 20, around P2.32 trillion worth of projects, mostly in renewable energy, have been approved to go through the \u201cgreen lane\u201d system, the Board of Investments said earlier.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">The government, through EO No. 18, established the \u201cgreen lane\u201d in all government agencies to speed up the approval and registration process for priority or strategic investments. \u2014 <b>B.M.D.Cruz<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div>THE GOVERNMENT has 143 public-private partnership (PPP) projects valued at P3.095 trillion in the pipeline as of July, with new projects centered on health and waste management, the National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) said. \u201cThe number of pipeline projects has grown over these past few months.
