This was done as a cost-saving measure, as it required fewer toll booths. The toll booths |
Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion Law | Vision and goals of TRAIN Law | is expected to be able to increase revenues to finance the infrastructure, healthcare and education programs of the Duterte Administration.

With deforestation and cultivation increasing, a permeable mixture of gravel, boulders and sand evolves, which leads to a sinking water table. But where layers consist of clay and fine sediments, the groundwater rises to the surface and heavy sediment is washed out, thus enabling frequent and massive floods during monsoon, such as the 2008 Bihar flood.
