The bridge project was formally signed yesterday between the Philippine government and the Export-Import Bank of Korea-Economic Development Cooperation Fund (KEXIM-EDCF) amounting to P4.2 billion loan agreement.

According to the Department of Budget and Management (DBM), the P4.2 billion will be funded through loan proceeds, while the remaining P586 million coming from the national budget will be funded by the Philippine government.

DBM has issued the project’s Forward Obligational Authority (FOA), which gives an overview of the annual investment cost of the Panguil Bay Bridge project, particularly on KEXIM-EDCF and the Philippine government.
