00:00More infrastructure to make other industries richer
00:04is what General Santos City is pushing for.
00:07That's the national news of Earl Tobias of IBC 13.
00:15General Santos City is known as the real capital of the Philippines.
00:19And Marlon is just one of the thousands of vendors
00:22that has been a part of the real industry in the province for decades.
00:25This is also what I'm trying to get.
00:28This is also what I'm trying to get every day from my family.
00:32Sometimes, they sell more than P10,000.
00:39Along with the real industry,
00:42Jansan Economic Manager, Leonard Flores,
00:45has also confirmed the richness of other industries in their town,
00:48such as more infrastructure for event hostings
00:52and investments in healthcare.
00:54And they plan to make their town the next metropolitan capital.
00:58As we grew, we also know our role in the South Surgeon region as the gateway.
01:05We are top five in terms of passengers at busy airport.
01:10What does it mean?
01:12So, we are really making justification.
01:15We justify our being a gateway of Southern Philippines.
01:19They estimated that 1.9 billion pesos per day in 2023
01:23will be spent by tourists in their town.
01:27While 1.7 million tourists are expected to visit this year.
