A different kind of runway

Things really move faster when the private sector is involved.

Take the Runway Manila, possibly the country’s fanciest and priciest “overpass” that will link Terminal 3 of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and Resorts World Manila. Picking up the P1.5-billion tab is Alliance Global Group Inc. (AGI) of tycoon Andrew Tan that also operates Resorts World.

Runway Manila opened yesterday and there are obvious benefits here for anyone who has been stuck in a traffic jam outside Naia 3.

The bridge will be fully air-conditioned and even has “walkalators” for the elderly or disabled as well as for those who feel the added convenience is still too much effort. It’s even a destination unto itself, given that it will have a cafe and a guest check-in counter for the nearby Marriott Hotel Manila.

“With all these projects, AGI has been bringing development and progress to different parts of the country, creating jobs, spurring economic activity and helping improve the lives of our fellow Filipinos. This is our way of contributing to nation-building and helping find solutions to our country’s problems,” Tan said. —MIGUEL R. CAMUS
