South Korea will be more involved in the progress of the
Philippines with respect to much needed infrastructure that is badly needed.
Region 6 or Western Visayas will benefit to the robust

The Republic of Korea will financially support the conduct of
engineering services for the Panay-Guimaras-Negros (PGN) Bridge, an inter-island
bridges project of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) in
Western Visayas.
This future path will
be the fastest way by land to cross Iloilo, Guimaras, and Bacolod and will
surely be good for each place’s commerce and tourism.
