BRIDGES to Connect Cebu, Bohol, and Negros!

as far as the Colon-Minglanilla is concern .... SRP is the solution basta dli lang mag apil apil ang mga walay labot

tong si Marvin kung mag isip nang mga bagay na ito eh para bang naglalaro lang siya ng computer game.

Brod, hindi ito tulad ng SIM CITY na pwede mong gawin sa iglap lamang. Kulang na kulang budget natin. Mas marami pa tayong dapat atupagin. This is a luxury we cannot afford. Prioritize muna natin yung talagang kailangan natin tulad ng mga daan, paaralan, gamot, patubig, pagkain. Paratayong gumawa ng magandang bahay.Maganda nga sa labas tingnan pero ang mga nakatira ay pawang gutom at wala ng mga damit.

Hindi nman natin kailangan to eh. Ok naman yung mga bapor natin. Bat idugtong pa. Gastos lang yan. Tapos madugtong, anong gawin mo? Eh wala namang economic activity kasi in the first place bagsak economiya natin. The project has to be viable.

Pwede siguro gawin natin yan 2050. Siguro asenso na Pilipinas nun. Wala na rin siguro tayo sa panahong yun.

Well the idea is nice, and yes I do agree that it might help boost the regional economy of Central Visayas. Specially the Cebu-Bohol link. But then again, resources are limited. There are more pending and pressing issues that needs to be addressed and where I believe money should be placed into. Hospitals, School Buildings and Roads. And I'm not talking about major highways, but provincial roads and kanang mga karasada sa barabarangay.

These are loaned money after all, which has to be paid. If people all don't know Cebu City is the LGU with the biggest debt because of SRP. Ako I honestly supported the SRP idea, too bad though gi-apilan ug politika so look what happened.

My point is, the idea of connecting Cebu to Bohol to Negros and vice versa is very noble. But I think the timing is off lang sa pagkakaron.

Lain pa'y ato. Why not construct an MRT like or subway transpo in Cebu. Kana mas kinahanglanon pa na, kay sobra na ka traffic from Southern towns to Cebu City. At least the benefit ma feel dayon sa katawhan. Here in Manila it takes you only about 20 minutes to get from North EDSA to Taft, which is roughly the distance of Colon St. to Minglanilla.

Nothing wrong with doing grand "trophy" projects, but I think more importantly we need to know what to prioritize first.

Oo nga. Bat di nalang kayo gawa ng MRT. Ako kung papunta akong quiapo eh di na ako dadaan sa quezon ave. Ginawa ko sakay ako sa north edsa haggang taft sa baclaran.Tapos sasakay naman ako galing baclaran hanggang carriedo. Eh tapos nasa quiapo na ako in less than one hour.

Mag MRT na lang kayo mas mabuti at maskailangan pa yan. Braggin rights din sa isang lunsod pag may modern mass transit. Iba talaga pag sumakay ka sa train. Parangfeeling mo, nasa New York ka.

^I agree. why not an MRT. I think with the traffic situation that the city is enduring right now. We definitely need an alternative way to commute..such as what is mentioned.

[M@rv|n]

with regards to budget i guess its already been answered.
and bout that traffic down south i guess its already been answered too.
which is cheaper a bridge or an MRT? and who is going to pay for the construction?
which is more of help that MRT or the bridge?
do sim city involve money? am sorry but i havent played that game.
do you know how many people traveling to bohol everyday? and how many hours are wasted? just by traveling alone? what do u think are the factors why "bagsak ang economiya natin"? please try to review ur economics 1

please always keep in mind that this is not a city project this is a regional project.
the karsada sa barangay, medicines and all those puny thing that ur thinking which is suppose to be the responsibility of the municipality mayors and congressmen since they wer given a budget from the provincial and national government.

com'n! dont think of a project that would only benefit the small number of people or shall i say dont be selfish.

[potterboy]

ground developments first. bridges later.

[whiteoleander]

i really support this project . this will bring very positive things to these islands' tourism, telecommunications , as well as strengthen the relationship between these neighboring islands. it is really an ambitious project , i agree . it will cost a lot , true and there are other , as always , more pressing matters . but the cost of buliding this bridge will be nothing compared to the long term investments this bridge ( connecting the visayan islands ) will bring back to these islands. look at its long term benefits.

Patuli kog usob kung mahitabo na!!! Sos dako-dako gyud ning makurakot ani da...

if these bridges connecting these provinces exist, for sure, only the rich and the wealthy could afford to cross it because of the huge amount of fuel needed to travel these distances. whereas if we had better roads, better traffic schemes, bigger hospitals, better schools, it's not only the poor who could benefit from it but the rich as well because they get the kind of manpower that they would need coz these workers won't be late coz they won't have to slow down everytime they pass by a mud puddle, they won't be asking for advance pay coz the government can help them out in their medical needs and of course, they're a lot more reliable because they've got the knowledge that they would need to perform each task.

It's not a question of budget. Doesn't matter really kung local, regional, national govt. ang mo fund. Or JICA or German government, i-apil na nato ang taga Mars or taga Pluto pa ang mo fund. The point is UTANG na, and therefore kinahanglan nga bayran.

Kung mangutang man lang gani, make sure that the money will go to priority issues/concerns which are more pressing. Like roads, better govt. hospitals, and school buildings. And once again, kung mangambisyon man lang ta, might as well MRT na lang. Mas daghan pang problema ma solbad ana nga solusyon.
