Davao City, Davao, PHL
The first cross sea- bridge that the Davaeño people have long dreamed of will come true!
On behalf of the Chinese side, today I exchanged with Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez the signed Framework Agreement and Loan Agreement for the Samal Island - Davao Connector (SIDC) project.
The Chinese government will provide a concessional loan of approximately $350M to the Philippine government to fund the Samal Island-Davao Connector (SIDC) Bridge.
Connecting Davao City and Samal Island
across the Pakiputan Strait, is a two-way four-lane 3.86-km. bridge.
This project will break ground before long. Look forward to seeing the long-awaited cross-sea bridge turning from a vision into a reality!
"Once completed, this bridge will provide a resilient and reliable transportation link between Davao City and Samal Island, improving transportation efficiency, promoting internal mobility, and stimulating tourism potential. Also, during the construction, thousands of jobs would be created," says Chinese Ambassador to the Philippines Huang Xilian.
