Aside from the standard socio-economic profile briefing, the planning staff presented the profiles of selected projects such as the Nonoc Nickel Refinery and Special Economic Zone, the Fishing Port Complex, the Agro-Industrial Estate Project, New Public Cemetery, and West-Coast Business Park Development.
Mr. Phong of Malindo Resources – Malaysia, expressed his sincere appreciation and keen interest in the presentation especially the numerous potentials that the city can offer in terms of business and industrial development. The Malindo Resources Group has shown initial intent on the Fishing Port Project and the business park development venture.
Mr. Hua of Era-Quorum Global on the other hand expressed further interest in the city’s mining industry and requested the city planning staff for related details and additional information on the city and province’s mining industry profile.
The herein series of visits of various investor groups to the city are the initial results of the aggressive promotion being undertaken by the City Mayor himself in various trips to Metro Manila.
