He said it needs only the six
district solons and Abono Party List Representative Conrado Estrella to lobby
President Rodrigo R. Duterte and his cabinet members to chalk up the needed sum
to jump start the ports that will tremendously benefit the people of the
huge province Pangasinan.
Arcinue cited that these lawmakers can intercede for a share in the
vaunted nine trillion pesos funded Build- Build- Build’s Project of President
Rodrigo Duterte that he will be spending untill his term ends on year 2022.
“Ten billion pesos lang ang e-lobby to maximize this town’s potential kung ang project ni President Rodrigo Duterte ay Build- Build- Build ay international seaport sa Sual, that is for Region 1 and Pangasinan the biggest province in Luzon,” he said.
Arcinue said that since 2001 that the 1,218 megawatts coal power plant has been operated by the Team Sual Corporation, it paid P27 billion income tax and P23.4 billion tariff to the Bureau of Internal Revenue and the Bureau of Customs, respectively, or a total of P50.4 billion.
“The national government has been benefiting on the coal power plant here,” he said.
Arcinue said after these seaport project is completed this town will become self-sustaining and will not be dependent on the public coffer.
