[Title] => Angara pushes for Mindanao railway
[Summary] => Sen. Edgardo Angara called yesterday for the establishment of a P1-billion rail network that would span the entire Mindanao and boost the economic development of the resources-rich but strife-torn and underdeveloped region.
"The rail network, which will crisscross Mindanao, will benefit the whole islands populace, accelerating economic activity," Angara predicted.
He has filed Senate Bill No. 1279 seeking to establish the Mindanao Railways Corp., which will provide the railroad and the transportation system needed by the whole island.
