EXPLANATORY NOTE
This bill was originally introduced as House Bill No. 5428 during the Fourteenth
Congress. lt was approved by the Committee on Public Works and Highways as substituted
House Bill No. 61 50 under Committee Report No. 1896, dated March 30, 2009. lt was
approved on 2nd reading on May 6, 2009 and 3'd reading on May 20, 2009. lt was transmitted
to the Senate on May 26, 2009 where it was not acted upon. lt was again re-filed during the
16th Congress and the 17th Congress.
This bill seeks to convert A. Velez St. in Cagayan de Oro City to Macasandig-lndahag-
Bukidnon Road from a city and provincial road to a national road and an alternate highway
from Cagayan de Oro City to Bukidnon and vice versa,
The road is presently in poor condition and in dire need of repair and rehabilitation.
City and provincial funds are not available for its maintenance and/or upgrading. Hence, the
need to tap other sources.
The A. Velez St., Cagayan de Oro City to lvlacasandig-lndahag-Bukidnon Road
connects the urbanized city of Cagayan de Oro to the last municipality of the neighboring
Province of Bukidnon. Wth its improvement, easier access to both points would be ensured
and the potentials for commercial and industrial development would be realized.
With its conversion into a national road and an alternate highway from Cagayan de
Oro City to Bukidnon the road would receive much needed funding and assistance it deserves.
Passage of this measure is earnestly requested

This bill seeks to establish a National High School in Barangay Pantad, Municipality

Section 1, Article XIV of the Philippine Constitution provides for the right of all 
citizens to quality education at all levels and that appropriate steps should be taken by the

Barangay Pantad has a considerable number of elementary graduates who are unable to

The creation of a national high school makes secondary education available to the 
Barangay. Further, it will provide wider avenues for administrators, faculty, staff, students, 
parents and the community for innovations and development that would hopefully improve the 
division performance in terms of participation and achievement rates.

EXPLANATION NOTE 
During the Aquino Administration, on December 10, 1987, the government 
enacted Republic Act No. 6639 renaming the Manila International Airport (MIA) 
as the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in connection with an Anti-
Marcos Leader, Ninoy Aquino, late husband of the then incumbent Philippine 
President, Corazon C. Aquino. 
The name of the international gateway of the country should have not been 
politicized in the first place. Our nation’s capital is named Manila, therefore our 
country’s international gateway to the world must be known as the MANILA 
INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT as a sense of pride for our country’s capital and for 
foreigners to easily locate our main gateway, when travelling to our country and 
across the world. In view of the foregoing, the passage of this measure is sought!

HOUSE BILL NO. _1995 Wo InDERZ

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to convert the Tayug- San Quintin Provincial Road in
the Municipality of Tayug and Municipality of San Quintin from provincial
road into a national road.

The 4.2 kilometer Tayug-San Quintin provincial road is of primary
importance to the life and well-being of our constituents not only in the
towns of Tayug and San Quintin but also to our neighboring towns. The
Tayug-San Quintin road is a major route to all types of commercial vehicles
plying the Pangasinan-Nueva Vizcaya Road. The northern end of the
Tayug-San Quintin road is connected to the Pangasinan-Nueva Vizcaya
Road (Tayug Section). The opposite end abuts the San Nicolas-Natividad-
San Quintin-Umingan Road (San Quintin Section).

The existing roadway is heavily traversed by motorists coming from
the different municipalities of Pangasinan, the Province of Nueva Ecija
(Region III), and the Province of Nueva Vizcaya (Region Il). The conversion
of the Tayug-San Quintin provincial road will generate increased tourism,
agricultural, and other commercial activities in an inter-regional scale. Its
conversion and upkeep in conformity with national road standards will
spur socio-economic development in Pangasinan and neighboring
provinces. It will also provide a permanent solution to the deteriorating
condition of the Tayug-San Quintin road, a good measure which exempts
the Province of Pangasinan from having to appropriate its annual road
repair and maintenance funding

Introduced by Representative TEODORICO “NONONG"” T. HARESCO, JR.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

The Province of Aklan is presently being served by only one district engineering
office of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) that is serving the two
(2) legislative districts of the Province.

The Second District of Aklan is a new legislative district which was created by
virtue of Republic Act 11077 otherwise known as an “Act Reapportioning the Province of
Aklan into Two (2) Legislative Districts” signed by President Rodrigo Duterte on
September 14, 2018. Considering the inadequacy of just one district engineering office
serving the two districts, this bill seeks to establish a separate district engineering office
for the Western Aklan which consists of the nine (9) municipalities in the Second District,
namely Buruanga, Ibajay, Lezo, Makato, Malay, Malinao, Nabas, Numancia and Tangalan.

The creation of another district engineering office dedicated for the Second
District of Aklan will address undue delays in the implementation of infrastructure
projects and programs which hinder the development and growth of the district. This
office will be adequately staffed which means that it can effectively and efficiently handle
all the public works projects in the district expeditiously.

In view of the foregoing, the passage of this bill is earnestly sought.

INTRODUCED BY REP. MAXIMO, JR. Y. DALOG and REP. ERIC GO YAP

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to terminate the collection of toll fees along the portion of the Baguio-
Bontoc Halsema Highway, repealing for the purpose Executive Order (EO) No. 34, Series
of 1954, as amended.

In the entire Philippine Archipelago, only the Cordillera Administrative Region
has a national toll road now known as the Baguio-Bontoc Halsema Highway-Kennon
National Toll Road comprising of three (3) toll gates found in Camps 1 and 6 both in
Tuba, Benguet, along Kennon Road and the third one in Acop, Tublay, Benguet, along
Halsema Highway.

With the passage of Republic Act (RA) No. 8794 on June 27, 2000, entitled “An
Act Imposing a Major Vehicle User's Charge on Owners of all Types of Motor Vehicles
and for Other Purposes,” the motor vehicle user's charges are collected and deposited in
special trust accounts in the National Treasury. The trust accounts include the Special
Road Support Fund and the Special Local Road Fund which are used by the Department
of Public Works and Highways for the maintenance and improvement of primary and
‘secondary roads throughout the country.

With toll fees collected by virtue of EO 34 and the motor vehicle user's charges
under RA 8794, which are both transmitted to the National Treasury, the road users of
Baguio-Bontoc Halsema Highway toll road are technically being charged twice. They are
mostly farmers from Benguet and Mountain Province transporting their agricultural
products to the La Trinidad Vegetable Trading Post or directly to Metro Manila

Hence, approval of this bill is earnestly sought.

This bill seeks to convert the Jct. Abellanosa - Capistrano Street - Carmen - Patag
Road in Cagayan de Oro City from a city road to a national road.
The road is presently in dire need of expansion, repair and rehabilitation. City funds
are not adequate for its maintenance and/or upgrading. Hence, the need to tap other sources.
With its improvement, easier access to both points would be ensured and the potentials for
commercial and industrial development would be realized.
With its conversion into a national road, it would receive the much needed funding and
assistance it deserves.
Passage of this measure is earnestly requested

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to convert to Fidel Bas Road to Rizal Road of Talisay City,
Cebu, from Barangay to National Road and to provide fund for its purpose.

The existing barangay road Fidel Bas to Rizal road commences at Baranagy
Mohon and stretches to Rizal Road of Barangay Poblacion of Talisay City, Cebu. It
serves as connecting short cut access to other barangays within the city and is
accurately 4.8 kilometres in length. Constituents and inhabitants, various sectors of
the community be it on business, public and private employment are dependent on
its use. It’s being utilized as trade and business route principally because it gave an
easy and accessible entry and exit going to and from the National Highway, vice
versa. Further, commuters and travelling public whether on private vehicle or public
utilities commonly passed the route to save more travel time and avoid traffic

congestions during rush and peak hours

The conversion of Fidel Bas Road — Rizal Road, from a barangay to a national

road will certainly hasten access of motorist.

The passage of this bill is of urgent concern because of the numbers of riding

public and stakeholders benefiting its use.

In view of foregoing, the passage of this is earnestly sought.

AN ACT
PROVIDING FOR THE CONVERSION OF L. SAN DIEGO ROAD,
CANUMAY, IN THE CITY OF VALENZUELA, METRO MANILA
INTO A NATIONAL ROAD AND APPROPRIATING FUNDS
THEREFOR

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to convert the city road of L. San Diego Road, Canumay, in
the City of Valenzuela, Metro Manila into a national road.

The existing roadway is heavily traversed by motorists from local residents
and those from nearby municipalities. In our collective desire to provide for the safety
and convenience of our constituents who ply this route, it is further submitted that
the national government is better equipped to handle the maintenance of this road.
Conversion of this road into a national road would also allow its development to be
in line with the national infrastructure plan which as it stands is highly crucial in
resolving the traffic crisis that is plaguing Metro Manila.

In view of the foregoing, approval of this bill is earnestly sought.

HOUSE BILL NO. _2000

Introduced by Representative MARLYN L. PRIMICIAS-AGABAS

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to convert the Tayug- Natividad Provincial Road
in the Municipalities of Tayug and Natividad, Province of Pangasinan,
provincial road into a national road.

The 5.095-kilometer Tayug-Natividad provincial road is of
primary importance to the life and well-being of our constituents not
only in the towns and Natividad but also to other neighboring towns
and provinces. The Municipality of Tayug is home to the famous San
Flower Maze, and geographically set as center of commercial trade in
Eastern Pangasinan. The Municipality of Natividad, on the other hand,
is home to Maranum Falls, a famous tourist destination in
Pangasinan. Added to it is the famous Natividad Sky Plaza, a public
park with a giant Christ the Redeemer Statue (pilgrimage site) which
was built on the hillsides facing the Caraballo Mountains. Connecting
these two municipalities is the Tayug-Natividad road which adjoins
two national roads, the San Nicolas-Natividad-San Quintin-Umingan
National Road and the Pangasinan-Nueva Vizcaya Road on opposite
ends.

The Tayug-Natividad road is traversed by motorists coming from
the different municipalities of Pangasinan, the Province of Nueva Ecija
(Region II), and the Province of Nueva Vizcaya (Region Il). The
conversion of the Tayug-Natividad road will generate increased
tourism, agricultural, and other commercial activities in an inter-
regional scale. Its conversion and upkeep in conformity with national
road standards will spur socio-economic development in Pangasinan
and neighboring provinces. It will also provide a permanent solution


to the deteriorating condition of the Tayug-Natividad road, a good
measure which exempts the Province of Pangasinan from having to
appropriate its annual repair and maintenance funding.

Hence, the immediate approval of this bill is earnestly sought.

HOUSE BILL No. 1997_

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This bill seeks to convert the Asingan-Urdaneta Junction
Provincial Road to a National Road in the Province of Pangasinan. On
account of the road’s importance as a major commercial route to all
types of commercial vehicles in the Province of Pangasinan, there is a
need to file this bill for its conversion into a national road.

The Asingan -Urdaneta Junction Provincial Road, spanning a
total distance of16.58 kilometers, connects the Municipality of
Asingan to the City of Urdaneta, the latter being the commercial and
educational center in eastern Pangasinan. The road is also a major
gateway from eastern to central and western Pangasinan. Being a
major commercial route, there is an annual increase of vehicle density
thus exposing said road to major use. The need therefore to convert
the same to a national road is most compelling given the fact that its
major and constant use will consequently require periodic
maintenance to keep it in good condition.

With the conversion of Asingan-Urdaneta Junction to a
provincial road, its improvement and maintenance can be included in
the annual budgetary allocation of the Department of Public Works
and Highways (DPWH). Given the budgetary constraints of the
province, the allocation by the province of its annual funding for the
maintenance and regular upkeep of its provincial roads considerably
affects its financial cupboard. Its conversion into a national road will
free and unbind the province of road maintenance funds which can
be used for other equally important infrastructure programs of the
province.


Given the socio-economic benefits that the conversion will
create, the immediate passage of the bill is therefore earnestly sought.
