Critics of the administration are claiming that President Duterte’s “Build, Build, Build” (BBB) infrastructure program is a “dismal failure.”

I totally disagree with that assessment. There are no metrics that show the BBB program is a flop. On the contrary, the infrastructure program is a success if gauged by the number of Filipino jobs it created and its contribution to the overall gross domestic product.

Merry Christmas to everyone! I hope you can spend the pause of the holidays to be with friends and loved ones recharging for the year ahead. Christmas is about hope and joy. It is a reminder that despite all our problems we can overcome and build a happy life for our family.

We have something to cheer on this Christmas season!

More Filipinos are being pulled out of the poverty level and more have found jobs, thanks to the government’s massive infrastructure program and serious efforts to improve the lot of the people.
