Introduced by SENATOR EDGARDO J. ANGARA 
As the country weathers the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression, 
Aurora remains resilient and is gradually attaining status as the Pacific’s prime 
investment hub. 
Aurora is ideal for agri-fisheries development yith its fertile soil and mountains, 
vast coastlines and steady rainfall. It has its natural growth potentials, blessed with a 
Hawaii-like weather that results to abundant natural resources and rich collection of 
flora and fauna. With ongoing infrastructure development linking Aurora and other 
nearby provinces to the rest of the country, these resources could be better tapped for 
economic uplift. Such projects include the Baler-Casiguran Road, the Pantabangan- 
Maria Aurora Road, two airports and two seaports. 
Aurora’s progress takes shape as major infrastructure projects are underway, 
including the completion of the Economic Zone’s offices in Aurora and in Clark. To 
keep up with the region’s fast-paced development and the present-day challenges, the 
Economic Zone must be better equipped. This bill proposes the following changes: 
0 
Renaming Aurora Special Economic Zone to “Aurora Pacific Economic Zone 
Authority” (APEZA) to establish Aurora’s role as the Pacific’s premier gateway; 
Providing APEZA with a compensation plan comparable with other authorities 
and corporations of similar nature such as the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority 
(SBMA), Clark Development Corporation (CDC), Bases Conversion and 
Developnient Authority (BCDA) and the private sector. This aims for a better 
management by attracting best talents to APEZA’s pool of human resources. 
Forming a corporate body, the Aurora Development Corporation (ADC), to be 
the operating and implementing arm of the APEZA and manage and expedite 
implementation of the various projects in the Aurora Pacific Economic Zone. 
Infrastructure along with better economic management will establish Aurora as 
gateway to the Pacifi-unlocking 
the resource-rich and fertile areas of Southern 
Isabela, Quirino, Nueva Vizcaya and Aurora. 
0 
The natural wealth of Aurora-its 
people and resources in forests, seas, 
mountains, coral reefs, and unique flora and fauna-hinges 
an advantageous position 
for economic development in the Pacific region. And with APEZA’s management, the 
dawning of Aurora as the Pacific gateway is in the horizon. 
In view of the foregoing, approval of this bill is earnestly sought.
