Into the Bosom of the Rising Sun: Japan blesses the Philippines with $2 Billion massive railway loan

The loss in Indonesia was minor, as there are various projects in Indonesia that we are gaining as well. Project procurement is not a zero sum aspect for Japanese delegation, my friend. In fact, the recent loss to China was used as a conduit , or catalyst if you may, for revisions in Japanese loan schema , more so in lowering interest rates that in long term will strengthen Japanese choice to foreign partners. As we speak we are also securing a development project with Malaysia.



ha ha ha, totoo ka , pero hindi shya pinoy, peke yan. isang malaking pekeng tangina yan.

LOL

hmmm, Jakarta-Bandung HSR is served as pilot project. Anyone who can secure the contract surely they will have an upperhand to bagged the future projects of HSR in much of Indonesia metropolitan area. Especially in Java island. The one the most anticipated project is actually HSR line to link between Jakarta-Surabaya-Jogjakarta-Solo-Malang. Not to mention Makassar, Medan and Batam metropolitan area (Although i suspect Batam project will be handled by a Singaporean company). It's not the term of loan payment and interest rate which make Japanese proposal quite unattractive, but they lack in term of speed to finished the project as our President want to boost infrastructure development as soon as possible.

Right now Japanese companies are in serious talk to secure deep water port project in which will served as hub port for Japanese industrial complex in Indonesia and the major expansion of their financial and industry investment (mainly electronic, machinery, shipyard, and automotive) in Indonesia.

Japan economy is shrinking every year and their money is becoming lesser and lesser every year. Of cos Japan need to focus more on money/financial when comes to all this dealing. China on other hand has plenty of money and that is why your UK government is aggressive courting us. China investment is a long run project that do not look for short term profit and we can afford to wait long before it bear fruits. Its more about building politic relation and lay the foundation for bigger things in future.

There are plenty of investments and massive infrastructure projects from Japan in the Philippines. From Makati, Metro Manila, Quezon City, Iloilo City, Bacolod, Cebu, Dipolog, Leyte, Davao, General Santos, Zamboanga et cetera , they are in construction. From deep port projects, to bridge structural upgrades, roadway/highways, educational facilities, manufacturing facilities. You name it, we are involved and vested in the philippines' rise as a major industrial and manufacturing center in the region; and will one of the pillars of Japanese industrial complex. This relationship will only deepen as years progress.

I suppose it illustrates the eventual union between Japan and the philippines in the future.
