Introduced by Hon. Divina Grace C. Yu

EXPLANATORY NOTE

With the upcoming economic integration of the Association of Southeast Asian
Nations (ASEAN) in 2015, just few months away, agriculture is expected to be among our
‘country’s key growth driver,

However, according to a survey conducted by the Economic Intelligence Unit's (EIU)
of the Global Food Security Index, our country ~ the Philippines ranks only 63rd out of 105
countries in terms of food sufficiency, This data is supported by looking at our country’s
record of rice imports despite being an agricultural country.

‘Therefore, to help improve our nation’s food stability, we need to chart a
comprehensive food production program, Right now, among the most important concerns
confronting food production aside from providing, technical assistance including loans and
financing is providing road access so that farmers’ products can be easily transported to
appropriate market the soonest at a minimal expense making it more competitive in terms of
pricing component therefore maximizing profit. In this manner, more people will be
encouraged to engage in farming.

Further, construction of more highways could also pump prime economic growth,
help support poverty alleviation programs, peace and order and promote tourism as another
means of livelihood

‘Therefore, in order to encourage the Zambosurians to become more productive
citizens and contribute to the food stability of the country, this Representation is proposing
for the conversion of the road stretching from Brgy. Dao, passing through Brgys. Bogo,
Kagawasan, Danlugan, Datagan and Alegria, in the City of Pagadian to Brgys. Sta.
Cruz and Bokong in the Municipality of Labangan, Province of Zamboanga del Sur
into a national road to be known as the “DAO - BOKONG NATIONAL HIGHWAY”.

Hence, immediate passage of this measure is earnestly sought.
