CLARK FREEPORT – Taiwanese firm BB International Leisure and Resort Development Corp. (BBI) is investing an additional P15 billion in a new eco-friendly integrated township in this freeport.
Atty. Agnes VST Devanadera, president and CEO of Clark Development Corp. and Edgar Lim, director for corporate flagship projects at BBI, signed the lease agreement at the Clark Visitors Center on July 31.
“When we signed our lease agreement, both of us made a very good decision. For us, in taking you, BBI, and for you, in choosing Clark. Thank you, BBI,” Devanadera said.
Acknowledging CDC’s support, Lim enthused: “We are very grateful and excited for this opportunity to invest in a very special project that will rise in Clark. We will work hand-in-hand with the CDC in bringing this eco-township dream to reality.”
BBI president Wun Xu Wu noted that the additional P15-billion investment will be used to build the 101-hectare Midori Highlands, which will combine green spaces with urban living, including high-rise condominiums and a logistics center.
Midori Highlands will also have sustainable features that include a rainwater collector, a solar farm, and energy-efficient transportation.
Wu said Phase 1 of the project will be developed on 24 hectares of prime land, consisting of eight blocks designed to create an urban enclave surrounded by green spaces.
On the other hand, its Phase 2 will feature 50 luxury mountain villas with eco-friendly designs, including living and dining areas as well as private patios.
Wu furthered that the Midori Highlands Resorts and Spa will offer a coffee shop with views of the Sacobia River, spa facilities, and ten exclusive villas, each with a private jacuzzi.
BBI has been a locator in Clark since Sept. 29, 2006, and is the owner and operator of Midori Clark Hotel and Casino and Aqua Planet water theme park. CDC-PR
