Finance Secretary Dominguez discussed the Philippines’ growth story and the massive Build, Build, Build program before members of the Chief Executives Organization (CEO) in its meeting held Sunday (November 10) at the Makati Shangri-La hotel in Makati City.
Secretary Dominguez emphasized that the Philippine economy is ready to soar after its strong performance in the third quarter and is likely to grow by 6 percent or above for the rest of the Duterte presidency despite the international trade friction and other global challenges. He furthered said that the massive rollout of the “Build, Build, Build” infrastructure program plus the bold policy and administrative reforms being undertaken by President Duterte support this rosy outlook for the country.
