ANGELES CITY – He’s barely a month in office but the Pinoy Gumising Ka Movement (PGKM) and other stakeholders in the Clark International Airport (CIA) are growing impatient over the apparent silence and lack of activity of newly-appointed Clark International Airport Corp. (CIAC) President- CEO Atty. Emigdio Dino” Tanjuatco, Jr. PGKM Chair Ruperto Cruz said Tanjuatco is taking too long to announce his plans for the Clark airport.
“What’s his mission?” asked Cruz. “What now? We need to know what direction we are headed? Nanung asahan tamu kaya? (What can we expect from him?),” asked Cruz. “We don’t want taxpayers money to be wasted,” he said.
“Will he be the messiah or just a much ballyhooed appointee coming in with unparalleled mediocrity?” Cruz asked.
“If he remains on his seat at CIAC, he will only lay eggs,” Cruz said. More than three weeks into his appointment as president and CEO Tanjuatco have yet to announce his plans for the CIA. Tanjuatco, a second cousin of President Aquino, was nominated as president and CEO during the CIAC board meeting in Makati on September 30 and immediately assumed his new post.
“We have yet to hear anything from him (Tanjuatco) considering the impact of Clark on the lives of the people here not only in Pampanga but also in the progress of Central Luzon and the country,” said Cruz. “What’s going on? It’s been 23 years waiting for the airport to be fully developed and it seems it won’t be done in the administration of PNoy,” lamented Cruz.
