Congressman proposes second international airport in Cebu<br /><br />Cebu 5th District Rep. Duke Frasco calls for the creation of another international airport in Cebu to strengthen the province’s infrastructure and disaster preparedness. Frasco said on Oct. 22, 2025 that the recent magnitude 6.9 earthquake highlighted the risk of relying solely on the Mactan-Cebu International Airport. The congressman proposed Sogod town in northern Cebu as the ideal site for a new international airport. He said its location within his district was strategic not just for safety, but also for economic development, as the project could attract businesses and boost local economy.<br /><br />VIDEO BY KAISER JAN FUENTES<br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br /> <br />Follow us: <br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br /> <br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br /> <br />Check out our Podcasts: <br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br />Stitcher: https://tmt.ph/stitcher<br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein<br /> <br />#themanilatimes<br />#tmtnews<br />#philippines<br />
