Build, Build, Build Infrastructure Accomplishments as of November 2019

Let me just summarize the major Infrastructure Projects that are running and have been completed under the Duterte Administration so far as of November 2019:

* 64 Airport Projects have been completed, with 133 more ongoing.

* Among those completed was the Mactan-Cebu International Airport which was delayed in schedule by 11 months when Duterte took over. It was inaugurated in 2017 and is now fully operational.

* The Bohol-Panglao Airport whose Feasibility Studies were started in 2000 but Construction only started in 2015, with a 48% slippage in schedule when it was handed over to the Duterte Administration. The Airport was inaugurated in November 2018.

* The MRT-7 whose Concession Agreement was signed in 2008 but had nearly zero movement until 2016, is now 50% complete.

* The MRT Common Station was approved by the NEDA Board in 2007 and stalled since 2009 is now undergoing 24/7 construction and is 50% complete.

* The LRT-1 Cavite Extension, delayed for 19 years and whom PNoy said he will have himself run over by its Trains if not completed in 2015, finally started full-blast construction this year.
