FXPLANATORY NOTE
This  bill  seeks  to  convert  the  Ricarte  Norte  -  Baguio  Village  -  Don  Mariano  Perez  ~  Kinakao
Boundary   Road   traversing   Barangays   Ricarte   Norte,    Dumanisi,    San   Pascual,    Magsaysay,
Campamento, Baguio Village, Makate, Rafael Palma, Ifugao Village, and Don Mariano Perez, Sr. in
the  Municipality  of Diffun,  Province  of Quirino,  and  Barangays  Ampakling  and  Baretbet  in  the
Municipalities of Diadi and Bagabag, all in the Province of Nueva Vizcaya into a national road.
The proposed road conversion will bring about improved accessibility to the Province of Quirino by
directly connecting Quirino to Nueva Vizcaya. As a landlocked province, access to and from Quirino
is primarily facilitated by the Cordon-Diffun-Maddela-Aurora Road which runs from Cordon, Isabela
in  the  north  to  Dinalungan,  Aurora  in  the  south.  There  is  currently no  national  road that  directly
connects  Quirino  to the  neighboring province  of Nueva Vizcaya.  By  establishing  a national road,
appropriate attention and funding can be given to the development of Quirino's direct cormection to
Central Luzon through Nueva Vizcaya.
In view of the foregoing, the immediate passage of this bill is eamestly sought.
