Panglao Island International Airport also known as ''New Bohol International Airport'' or ''Tagbilaran International Airport'' is an airport to be built on Panglao Island in the province of Bohol, Philippines. It is intended to become Bohol's international airport to support its tourism industry, especially on Panglao Island which is being promoted as an alternative destination for Boracay Island, When PIIA is opened, it will replace Tagbilaran Airport. The airport is close to Tagbilaran Airport in Tagbilaran which serves as the gateway to Panglao Island and the rest of mainland Bohol for domestic air travellers. It also is less than three hours travel time from Mactan-Cebu International Airport, which is a gateway to the Central Philippines for international tourists. ==History== In September 4, 2012,〔http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/business/09/04/12/neda-board-approves-lrt-airport-projects〕 the NEDA Board of the Philippines approved a resolution giving the green light for the construction of the airport. The proposed airport was to be funded through Official Development Assistance (ODA) instead of the Public-Private Partnership (PPP), an infrastructure-building programme of the government of the Philippine wherein the private sector may participate in any of the schemes authorized by its build-operate-transfer law. On March 27, 2013〔http://www.jica.go.jp/english/news/press/2012/130327_01.html〕 , the Japan International Cooperation Agency signed an agreement with the Republic of the Philippines to build the Panglao Island International Airport at 10.78 billion yen under the project name New Bohol Airport Construction and Sustainable Environment Protection Project. The signing signaled the roll out for the construction of a new airport in the province of Bohol at an island adjacent to Tagbilaran Airport. From its initial plan, the project was expected to finish in 2016 but has since then been moved to 2017 opening. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Panglao Island International Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
