Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On April 28, 2018, the China-Cotabato Friendship Technical School funded by China National Energy Engineering & Construction Co., Ltd. (CECC) had a groundbreaking ceremony at Barangay Tamontaka Mother. This four-story school building enclosed on 4 hectares of land will serve as the learning ground for the thousands of employees that will be needed once the Cotabato City Airport is constructed. It will also serve as the city’s development nucleus in Barangay Tamontaka Mother, where an economic zone (Eco-Zone) is envisioned to evolve into a continuing area expansion program, about five kilometers south of the old town center. The school will have a basketball court and offer technical and vocational courses. CECC donated PHP 300 million to fund the school. The project will be undertaken by CECC. The project was expected to be completed by December 2018. However, as of November 2019, the project was set to start in 2020. No updates on the implementation progress are found.
