US and Philippines to Build 4,000-Acre Industrial Hub

The United States and the Philippines are partnering to establish a 4,000-acre industrial hub aimed at bolstering supply-chain security. The project, situated within the Luzon Economic Corridor, will cover approximately 1,620 hectares and operate under the Pax Silica framework.
