00:00Rehabilitation will start in Naia on its turnover in the new Naia Infrastructure Corporation starting on Saturday.
00:07And in the first year, you will already feel the changes.
00:11Witness, Bernadette Reyes.
00:17Red seats, no escalators and walkalators, limited parking space.
00:23It will be landed in Tutugunan on its turnover in the operation of Ninoy Aquino International Terminal
00:30in the new Naia Infrastructure Corporation starting on Saturday, September 14.
00:35And in the first year, you will already feel the changes in the new and refurbished toilets,
00:40increased air conditioning units and chairs, faster internet connection and many more.
00:46Within five years, the passenger capacity will be increased to 62 million from the current 35 million.
00:53And from 40, it will be 48 take-offs and landings per hour.
00:58We can begin the work of modernizing our airport and giving Filipino people the world-class facility they deserve.
01:06Local airlines will also have new flights to international and local destinations.
01:12There may also be changes to the terminal assignment once the extension of Terminal 2 is completed.
01:19The increase in passenger fees will not be immediate.
01:23Based on the administrative order that was recently signed,
01:28the implementation of the increase in the terminal fee will only take effect after one year.
01:3482% of the revenues other than passenger service charge will go to the government.
01:40Our charges haven't increased for 24 years.
01:44And I think this is one of the reasons why the improvements and development of Naia is slow
01:52because of the lack of funds.
01:55Maybe it's about time.
