This refers to the request to clarify the news article entitled "Consortium says NAIA needs urgent rehab; doubles unsolicited proposal to P210B" from abs-cbn.com on June 19, 2023, it was reported in part that:
“MANILA — The Ninoy Aquino International Airport needs an urgent upgrade to cater to rapidly rising travel demand, the Manila International Airport Consortium said Friday, after doubling its unsolicited proposal to P210 billion.
MIAC, composed of Aboitiz InfraCapital, AC Infrastructure Holdings Corporation, Asia's Emerging Dragon Corp, Alliance Global – Infracorp Development, Filinvest Development Corporation, JG Summit Infrastructure Holdings Corp and Global Infrastructure Partners, earlier submitted a P100 billion bid to rehabilitate the airport.
. . . .”
AC Infrastructure Holdings Corporation through its parent entity, Ayala Corporation, ("AC"), wishes to clarify that based on the unsolicited proposal (“USP”) submitted by the Manila International Airport Consortium (the “Consortium”) to the Department of Transportation (“DOTr”) last April 27, 2023, the projected capital investment to undertake the rehabilitation and development program of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport over the span of its proposed concession period is P211 billion. This amount excludes the proposed P57 billion upfront concession payment to the government. Including the concession payment to the government, the total aggregate investment under the Consortium’s USP is P267 billion. The initially communicated amount of P100 billion referred to the approximately USD 1 billion in initial capital investments over the first five years in addition to the USD1 billion in upfront concession payment to the government.
This clarification comes from AC’s wholly-owned subsidiary, AC Infrastructure Holdings Corporation who is a member of the Consortium along with Aboitiz InfraCapital, Inc., Asia's Emerging Dragon Corporation, Alliance Global – Infracorp Development, Inc., Filinvest Development Corporation, JG Summit Infrastructure Holdings Corporation, and Global Infrastructure Partners. |
