ANGELES CITY -- Former congressman Joseller "Yeng" Guiao has vowed to continue advocating for the full development and utilization of Clark International Airport (CRK).
Despite his defeat in the congressional race, Guiao said that he is still pushing for the development of Clark airport.
"This has been my personal advocacy, kapag nakakausap ko po ang mga boss at nakakausap ko rin si MVP (Manny V. Pangilinan) ito pong ating airport dito sa Clark ito pa rin an gating itinutulak at ipinapaalala sa kanila," Guiao, who is now the coach of NLEx Road Warriors basketball team, said.
A developed Clark airport will also result to the development of the North Luzon Expressway (NLEx), Subic Clark Tarlac Expressway (SCTEx) and Central Luzon, according to Guiao. "
Even in a different capacity, hindi po natin tinitigilan itong advocacy na ito. Our bosses are all driven that Clark airport in Pampanga should be further developed.
Kahit hindi po doon sa dating forum o venue, dito po sa aking kinalalagyan ngayon ay tinutulak po natin yan," Guiao said.
The former Pampanga official also denied reports that he will seek the vice gubernatorial post in the 2019 elections.
Guiao, who lost to Carmelo "Jonjon" Lazatin, Jr. in the 2016 congressional race, said he is contemplating to run again for congressman.
"Depende keng sitwasyun. Malaut pa [ing eleksyon]. Pagaralan ke pa nung buri da ku pa reng tau,” It depends upon the situation. Election is still far.
I’m still figuring out if the people still like me," Guiao said. Guiao meanwhile lauded Transportation Secretary Arthur Tugade for his support to the development of Clark airport.
“It’s a good thing that Tugade became the Transportation secretary.”
“He (Tugade) knows the potential and advantages that Clark can contribute to the economy not only to Central Luzon but the whole country.
He is also in the best position to push for the development Clark airport due to his position and closeness to the president (Duterte),” Guiao said.
