Build! Build! Build! (BBB)Program

Centerpiece program of the Duterte administration.

Seeks to accelerate public infrastructure expenditure
from an average of 2.9 percent of gross domestic
product (GDP) during the Aquino regime to about 7.3
percent at the end of the Duterte administration.
This will cost around P8 trillion to P9 trillion from 2016
to 2022
 The BBB Program is anchored
on the implementation of 75
infrastructure 5 flood control
projects, 4 energy facilities and 3
social infrastructure.
These IFPs, which have a
combined indicative cost of P2.2
trillion, are high impact projects
intended to help bring down
production costs in the country,
facilitate efficient movement of
goods and people, improve rural
incomes, encourage countryside
development, and create 1.7
million jobs by 2022.
 By Status. As of November 2018, only 2
out of the 75 IFPs were completed, namely the
“Improvement of the remaining sections along
Pasig River Del Pan Bridge to Napindan
Channel” and the “Pulangi 4 Selective
Dredging Phase 3”.
Meanwhile, 24 IFPs are under the
development stage or those with completed
pre-investment studies awaiting submission to
the NEDA Investment Coordinating Council
(ICC) (Table 2).
Of the 44 projects under implementation,
15 are currently securing budget or in the
financing process, 18 are under detailed
engineering design (DED) and procurement,
and 11 are undergoing construction
works.
By Source of Financing.
A total of 57 projects amounting to
P2 trillion will be financed through
ODAs either through loan or grant
from the donor country or multilateral
institution (Figure 2). Meanwhile, a
total of 12 projects with a combined
investment requirement of P138.5
billion will be funded through the
national government budget, while
only about 5 IFPs amounting to P23.3
billion are expected to be financed via
the PPP (Figure 2).
 Of the 57 IFPs up for ODA financing,
12 will be funded by China with a
combined indicative cost of P300.8 billion
(Figure 3).
 The biggest project funded by China is
the construction of the 639-kilometer
Manila to Bicol line of the Philippine
National Railway (PNR) with an
estimated cost of P175.3 billion.
 Among the major Japanese ODA
projects are the Metro Manila Subway
(P357 billion), PNR South Commuter
Line, Tutuban to Calamba (P344.6
billion), and the PNR North 2 Project,
Malolos to Clark (P283.8 billion).

 31 projects with a combined investment requirement of P514.8 billion
will be targeted to be completed by 2022 (Table 3). The remaining 44
projects amounting to P1.7 trillion will be completed beyond 2022, although
some may commence implementation during the term of President Duterte.
