MANILA, Philippines - President Aquino has signed an executive order
transferring supervision over the Clark International Airport Corp.
(CIAC) from the Office of the President to the Department of
Transportation and Communications (DOTC).
According to Executive Order 64, the transfer will enable the DOTC to
"effectively oversee and monitor the development" of the Clark Civil
Aviation Complex (CCA), which is "envisioned to be the Philippines'
premier international airport."
The DOTC is the main agency in charge of developing a reliable transport network in the country.

The move will allow the national government "to own and hold all such
shares of stock as the registered stockholder of record and deliver all
the shares in its name to the Secretary of Transportation and
Communications on behalf of the Republic of the Philippines.
it would then be much better, since it has not been performing so well, maybe in this time it would work well and earned the loss profit. good strategy of the DOTC by Mr. President.
