THE GOVERNMENT of Cotabato is set to start the implementation of the Central Mindanao Airport (CMA) development project worth P24,189,614.84 next week.

During the recent multi-agency pre-construction conference, Project Construction Engineer Heinrich A. Balacuting said the project includes: the rehabilitation of the passenger terminal building; construction of powerhouses; construction of vehicular parking areas; provision of concrete curbs, sidewalks, wheel stop, and pavement markings at VPA; construction of the 10,000 gallons water tank; construction of drainage systems and vertical path angle (VPA); and construction of transformer yard.

Governor Emmylou “Lala” J. Taliño-Mendoza said all efforts are being exerted to make the airport operational at the soonest time.

The CMA is included in the Mindanao Development Authority’s (MinDA) priority infrastructure projects portfolio and is seen to “catalyze inclusive and balanced rural development in Mindanao” and complement General Santos and Awang Airports in boosting economic activity. — Maya M. Padillo
