MESSAGE FROM
THE PRESIDENT
& CEO
This year has proven to be both a challenge and a success in building a bridge that would link
developments from the past years with the visions CDC holds for the future. By making talents and
skills a strategic priority in our Corporation, we have been able to exceed the goals set for this year.
This is truly a remarkable endeavor given that achievements over the last years were already very
laudable.
The highlights of this year’s achievements can be attributed to human capital and robust inclusive
growth, not to mention the programs that addressed climate change, amongst others. The
collaborative effort exerted by each member of our team paved way for the developments in the
Clark area in terms of employment, technology, and a greener environment. The annual report
presents how Clark met what was expected of it, and more. Net Income is at PhP 697 Million, 26%
higher compared to that of 2014’s and 15% more than what was expected for this year. For 2015,
employment has reached an astounding 82,382.
As a cliché goes: hard work pays off. During the latter part of the year, CDC had been recognized
and won in the Executive Leadership Team Category both in the government and private sectors.
This only goes to show that what defines the difference between success and failure is the great
team behind it: competent, daring, and caring. This is the kind of team that makes up the Clark
Development Corporation.
Despite all these accomplishments, our workforce still strives to develop and/or come up with new
ways in which we can boost our economic productivity. In keeping pace with the demands of our
time, we must continue the run toward our Corporate visions, with our improved methods. True
enough, Clark is now globally competitive. It is exhilarating to discover how much more we can do
to surpass our latest developments and accomplishments. I believe that what we’ve accomplished
thus far is only a fraction of our whole potential. With the promising advancements in technology
and infrastructures in the following years, I have little to no doubt that Clark will continue to grow
to be even more in the global market. The best is yet to come.
ARTHUR P. TUGADE

Corporate Objectives
To utilize the best practices in good governance to achieve economic growth, generate employment
opportunities, cultivate an environment for balanced and inclusive development with the physical
and human resources of the Clark Freeport Zone.
Corporate Governance
The strategy of culture and values transformation for CDC and giving emphasis on the “ways of
doing things” coupled with corporate principles such as transparency, accountability, and
professionalism paved the way in cementing the foundations of good governance.
This was the platform espoused by the new leadership when it assumed office more than three (3)
years ago. Simple as it may initially sound, the sustained exemplary performance in 2013 to 2015
proved its effectiveness. With the CDC Board of Directors’ enlightened leadership and direction
towards effective good governance, expectations are high that the coming years will sustain what
has been started in 2013 through 2015.
Further, significant changes in our corporate polices and structure, organizational reforms,
strengthened and sustained good governance undertakings, and best practices for policies and
procedures have been put in place and institutionalized, leading to a more efficient, transparent,
and accountable organization.
Whistle–Blowing Policy
While Clark Development Corporation is in the process of securing the approval of its own whistle
blowing policy, CDC has created a link at its website wherein the public can submit their issues,
concerns and complaints regarding CDC employees directly to the Governance Commission for
Government Owned and Controlled Corporation (GCG).

Executive Summary
For the year 2015, surpassing the achievements of 2013 and 2014 are both challenging and
daunting tasks. Coming from truly remarkable performance statistics that Clark Freeport has

But we will not rest in our laurels. These recognitions will further boost us to do more and continue
to strive to be the best. We will never be best, from the moment we think we are, that will be the
start of our downfall.
No matter how tough, we shall make things easier and better because we are focused and
determined. We shall maintain excellent public service and work in unity, soaring high with
synergy, with confidence and trust. In CDC we do the difficult, but for the impossible it will take
some time.

country.
