FAB transforms into commercial and industrial haven

MARIVELES,Bataan –  The construction of high-rise economic housing,  hotels, multi-storey commercial strip, standard factory building projects and other infrastructure facilities is virtually a key competitive feature in the transformation of the Freeport Area of Bataan (FAB) into a commercial and industrial district in Central Luzon.

Authority of the Freeport Area of Bataan (AFAB) chairman and administrator Engineer Emmanuel Pineda has revealed the implementation of the modern structural concept of mix-use commercial and manufacturing scheme is the outcome of long-range strategic economic and investment development plan of the fastest growing freeport in the country.

This innovative approach for commercial business and industrial district complements the latest architectural provision of successful industrial growth area, with the thriving and fully integrated and self-sustaining community harmonizing with modern workplace and basic lifestyle conveniences with nature.

The  presence of methodical  view  and formulation of genuine  work-live friendly environment, a business  central district, a leisure destination, learning and education  zones  and health services  tend to revitalize economic activities,  Engineer Pineda  explained  during in  his short lecture  to Bataan media practitioners recently.

The conversion of a segment of the province’s ecozone into a progressive business district is definitely a strong indication of FAB’s continuing higher and better enterprising services including both fiscal and non-fiscal incentives for the benefit of investors and the residents.

According to Pineda the project would help address the housing backlog in the province’s Freeport which Bataan Governor Albert Raymond S. Garcia includes in his priority agenda due to the influx of workers from different regions in the Island of Luzon.
