CLARK, Pampanga -- Following the the relocation of the Department
of Transportation (DOTr) in Clark City in Pampanga, the Department of Public
Works and Highways (DPWH) is now planning to follow suit.
During the Philippine Economic Briefing at the ASEAN Convention Center
here Friday, DPWH Secretary Mark Villar said the agency will be moving its
office to Clark.
In a separate interview, Bases Conversion and Development Authority
(BCDA) President and Chief Executive Officer Vivencio Dizon told the Philippine
News Agency that the DPWH will house its central office in the National
Government Administrative Center (NGAC) within the New Clark Green City,
the largest land development so far of the government-owned and controlled
corporation.
Dizon confirmed that DPWH will be one of the first movers in the NGAC
along with the agencies under the government’s resiliency program such as
Department of Interior and Local Government, Office of Civil Defense, and
Department of Social Welfare and Development, among others.
The first government building will rise in the Phase 1 of the NGAC,
which is expected to be delivered by the last quarter of 2019 along with the
two world-class sports facilities for the country’s hosting of Southeast Asian
Games, two buildings of athletic dormitory, and two residential buildings for
government housing. (PNA)
