P50M New Kalibo Airport Terminal Building to rise soon

Kalibo, Aklan – It was the mother of all news that Sec. Cerge Remonde, Director General of the Presidential Management Staff (PMS), has brought to the Kalibonhons just as he exited a Philippine Airlines flight and generously allowed an interview with the members of the Aklan media this June 28, 2007 at around 10:30 AM.

Sec. Remonde revealed that 50 million has been realigned by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo to be placed for the construction of the New Kalibo Airport Terminal suited for international flights along with the news from Asian Spirit that there will be six flights a week this coming July with no less than a hundred passengers per flight from Incheon, South Korea.

One of the PMS Regional Staff informed that the new terminal will be up to international standards including a retractable tunnel-like passageway for passengers relieving them of the burden of ascending or descending a ladder and be protected from the heat of the sun all the way into the terminal where they may proceed for processing.

In his speech during the Inauguration of the Newly Elected Officials of Kalibo and the Blessing of the Municipal Building on the same day, he took note of Cong. Joeben Miraflores’ request for another 30 million for the expansion of the Kalibo Airport’s runway and promises to bring the proposal to the President herself who have been supportive in the development of tourism in the Province of Aklan.
