Tell me, where are the projects needed by our country? We have the most disgusting airport in the world and everything about the new airport is just that, a "promise". No wonder even the fictional writer tagged Manila as the "gateway to hell". With our airport? It really is! "The mishaps of the last two weeks did not help boost our tourism, to be sure. First, potentially deadly slabs of concrete began peeling off the NAIA terminal building and crashing on the sidewalk below. Industrial-grade safety helmets might soon have to be issued departing passengers to prevent casualties. That can only reinforce the impression that we indeed have the most hated airport in the world. Air conditioning is deficient, the interior is dark and dreary and the toilets still stink. The business class lounges on the second floor could be called anything but comforting. When Mar Roxas was DOTC secretary in 2011, he promised structural and aesthetic rehabilitation of the NAIA within 18 months. He quickly got money appropriated for that purpose. The 18 months have lapsed and absolutely nothing has been done. Terminal 1, which services the international carriers, truly resembles the gates of hell." philstar/opinion/2013/06/06/950714/decay
