The much delayed construction of the Panglao Bohol International Airport (PBIA) will finally commence in October this year, according to Gov. Erico Aumentado who wants to leave a legacy of mega projects during his nine-year incumbency as chief executive of the province.

As if wanting to seal the new timetable, Gov. Aumentado will personally present the sequence of work for the modern airport during his 10-minute powerpoint presentation before Pres. Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and her Cabinet on Tuesday at the Imperial Resort in Mactan, Cebu.
