The Clark International Airport Corporation (CIAC) rolled out the business opportunities in the development of the Clark International Airport (CRK), with Qatar Airways laying down expansion plans to target upscale travelers going to destinations in Europe, the USA and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries.

This, after President Rodrigo Duterte earlier announced the greater utilization of the Clark airport as international gateway, as a move to decongest the Ninoy Aquino International Airport in Manila. The other day Department of Transportation (DOTr) Secretary Arturo Tugade said that among the benefits from the recent trip of the President to China is the increase in flights through the CRK.

Officials of CIAC led by its President and CEO Alexander S. Cauguiran met Monday (Oct. 24) with Qatar Airlines country manager Paolo Pausini on further cooperation and strengthened partnership in developing and making CRK more active.

Qatar Airways is a major international carrier at CRK, with regular flights for its Clark-Doha route, servicing mostly overseas Filipino workers (OFW) in Central and Northern Luzon.

Pausini said Qatar Airways is looking to expand its market by developing leisure, business and corporate traffic to Europe, the USA and the Gulf countries by tapping into its network in the Philippines, South Africa, North Africa and the Middle East.

Sec. Tugade's Statement on Claims of Outgoing US Ambassador to the Philippines Philip Goldberg

The Duterte administration remains to be ridiculed with irregularity issues and conspiracy theories. It seems that foreign perception continues to be a blur.

Below is Department of Transportation Secretary Art Tugade's statement on claims of outgoing US ambassador to the Philippines Philip Goldberg about his “unpublicized China trip” in June 2016.

Transportation Secretary Arthur P. Tugade denied claims of outgoing US ambassador to the Philippines Philip Goldberg about his “unpublicized China trip” in June 2016.

“If it is true that Ambassador Goldberg said that, then the fabled American “intelligence network” has miserably failed again. Tsismis yan! Was never in Beijing in June! You can always examine my passport anytime.” He said.

Speaking to ANC's Headstart, Goldberg mentioned that he is aware that Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano and Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade made a trip to China last June even before President Rodrigo Duterte's recent state visit to Beijing, which later on led to the increase of China’s investment and loan pledges to the Philippines.
