Newly-appointed Clark International Airport Corporation (CIAC) President and CEO Arrey Perez accorded a courtesy visit on Angeles City Mayor Carmelo “Pogi” Lazatin Jr. today, October 3.
Joining them during the courtesy visit are Chief Adviser IC Calaguas, Secretary to the Mayor Rafael Lazatin Angeles, and City Administrator Atty. Willie Rivera.
Lazatin said the appointment of Perez augurs well to the development of the Clark International Airport, which is now the 3rd busiest airport in the country, serving Central and Northern Luzon.
The development of a high-speed railway that will connect Clark airport to Bulacan all the way to Manila is also expected to serve residents in the South Luzon area.
Mayor Lazatin believes that Perez, as a former top executive of the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) who is also behind the development of the vibrant New Clark City (NCC) in Capas, Tarlac; and the generation of some P200 billion in contract revenues from real estate projects, is capable of bringinging further investments in the Clark aerodrome.
The mayor added that the entry of more investments in the Clark aerodrome is expected to generate more jobs and livelihood not only for residents of Angeles City but for highly-qualified workforce in the encompassing communities of Clark.
Perez served as BCDA Senior Vice President of the Corporate Services Group from March 2021 until his appointment in the CIAC top post. He was also Vice President of the BCDA Business Development back in February 2016 up to March 2021; and BCDA Department Manager III, Financial Management Services Department from March 2010 up to October 2013.
