Amid the excitement over the successful privatization of NAIA’s rehab and operation, Finance Secretary Ralph Recto mused about the future of NAIA beyond the 15-year San Miguel concession period. He revived plans to sell NAIA assets as a property play and generate a few trillion pesos to help reduce the country’s debt.
Recto told reporters covering his confirmation hearing as Finance Secretary that the proposal to eventually monetize NAIA assets could be considered because SMC is building the New Manila International Airport in Bulacan and once the new airport takes off, there could be better use of NAIA assets. Land preparation at Bulacan is almost completed and that’s 70 percent of what must be done in the project timeline. Building the terminals and the runways should start early next year. As I reported in my Dece. 11, 2023 column, I asked RSA, assuming he wins the NAIA bidding, what happens to NAIA after Bulacan becomes operational within the next three years? His quick reply was that he was open to giving NAIA back to the government so the Treasury can make even more money selling it as a property play. We didn’t go into the details of what happens to SMC investments at NAIA because I assumed that’s also been calculated in the bid and subject to negotiations when the time comes. I am not even thinking of the proposal to build Sangley International Airpor
