Such expansion can be justified given a fact that the volume of cargo being handled along with it's passengers exceeded, an indication of stable and robust economy..... just bring it on!!!

siguro migs, when everything else is settled down like if the whole bredco project is 100% finished, that will be the time that all of those will take place. also, i guess, with a proper zoning, bredco can become world class and can be comparable to other international ports in the world.
