FOREWORD
The Eastern Visayas Regional Development Investment Program (EV RDIP) 2017-2022 Midterm Update is a companion document of the
Eastern Visayas Regional Development Plan (RDP) 2017-2022 Midterm Update. While the policies and strategies are expounded in the RDP and
the corresponding implementation targets are contained in the Results Matrices (RM), the programs and projects that are needed to achieve these
development strategies and targets are enumerated in this EV RDIP.
To put it simply, the EV RDIP translates the medium-term strategies as contained in the RDP strategic framework (Figure 1) into specific
programs and projects necessary to realize the development vision, goals, and objectives of the region. Thus, being the meat of the plan, the EV
RDIP is the most important component of the RDP. It is comprehensive, strategic, and most importantly, it addresses regional priorities.
Similar with the RDP and RM, the preparation of this EV RDIP was mandated by Memorandum Circular (MC) No. 12 issued on 24
October 2016, which directed the formulation of the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) and the Public Investment Program (PIP) for the period
2017-2022. The programs and projects enumerated herein were drawn from the various consultation and validation workshops, RDC VIII-endorsed
programs and projects, Public Investment Program Online (PIPOL), System, annual investment programs and proposed budgets of the agencies,
SUCs, and LGUs.
This EV RDIP is a collaborative product of the Regional Development Council (RDC) VIII, composed of various national government
agencies, local government units (LGUs), state universities, and colleges (SUCs), and private sector representatives. We would like to commend all
the contributors of this document, especially the officers and members of the RDC VIII and its Sectoral Committees.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
For the remaining three (3) years of implementation of the Eastern Visayas Regional Development Plan (RDP) 2017-2022, the region
needs a total public investment of PhP422.170 billion to attain the region’s twin goals of robust economic growth and reduced poverty through the
implementation of programs and projects supportive of the 15 sector outcomes espoused in the Plan.
Among the strategies, investment requirements for ‘Accelerating Infrastructure Development’ has the lion’s share at 59.92 percent. This is
not surprising since the region badly needs to address its infrastructure deficiencies by connecting geographically isolated areas to the rest of the
region, constructing roads to make tourism and industry areas more accessible, and improving air and seaports and its facilities, in order for it to
move forward. Recognizing the importance of building human capital to promote inclusive and sustainable economic growth, the region will
strengthen its efforts along the strategy on ‘Accelerating Human Capital Development’ through programs and projects that comprise 22.87 percent
of the total investment requirement for the remaining plan period.
A table containing the summary of the region’s annual and total investment requirement from 2020 to 2022 per chapter follows. Each
chapter contains a table detailing the specific programs and projects, along with a brief description, location, implementing agency, annual and total
investment requirement from 2020 to 2022, and funding source.

local cities and pursue the relaxation of the Constitutional restrictions on foreign ownership, except as regards land ownership, in
order to attract foreign direct investment.
4. Accelerate annual infrastructure spending to account for 5% of GDP, with Public-Private Partnerships playing a key role.
5. Promote rural and value chain development toward increasing agricultural and rural enterprise productivity and rural tourism.
6. Ensure security of land tenure to encourage investments, and address bottlenecks in land management and titling agencies.
7. Invest in human capital development, including health and education systems, and match skills and training to meet the demand
of businesses and the private sector.
8. Promote science, technology, and the creative arts to enhance innovation and creative capacity towards self-sustaining, inclusive
development.
9. Improve social protection programs, including the government’s Conditional Cash Transfer program, to protect the poor against
instability and economic shocks.
10. Strengthen implementation of the Responsible Parenthood and Reproductive Health Law to enable especially poor couples to
make informed choices on financial and family planning.
