Cebu Landmasters sets to develop and manage the 20 Billion Minglanilla Techno-Business Park
A strategic milestone for Minglanilla, the ambitious P20 billion Minglanilla Techno-Business Park or Ming-Mori reclamation project, masterplanned by globally acclaimed Singapore-based Surbana Jurong Consultants (one of the most successful urban and infrastructure consulting firms in Asia with projects in over 30 countries) in Cebu is finally realized with the signing of a Memorandum of Agreement between the local government of Minglanilla and the Philippine Reclamation Authority (PRA) last 11 June 2021.
”The project will take CLI to a brand-new level and widen the range of our customer base to include light-industrial and technology-driven companies,” Cebu Landmasters Inc. CEO Jose Soberano highlighted. “We aim to achieve a balanced and mutually supporting relationship between urban mixed-use development, light-industrial land use and environmental stewardship. This will be our formula for sustainable growth and development.”
Soberano added, ”This is one of CLl’s biggest projects thus far. Because of the scale of this project that will take several phases to develop, we have carefully and meticulously planned it to be sustainable and supportive of future generations.”
The estate’s proximity to Cebu City makes it a highly viable location for light manufacturing industries especially now that the province’s main industrial parks are fully occupied. Ming-Mori technohub will consist of 2 islands and will also have its own port facilities to link it with the global economy.
To further attract locators, Ming-Mori’s first phase will include commercial, residential and institutional zones ”to create enough diversity to make it a vibrant community at the outset,” Soberano said.
Jobs from light manufacturing firms will initially draw workers and their families into the area to create a critical mass of residents supported by residential and commercial areas, schools, churches, and other institutions. As more areas become available and are developed, CLI envisions a vibrant waterfront community with lifestyle, business, and industry woven together.
Local government of Minglanilla Mayor Pena stated, ”Ming-Mori Techno Business Park is the long awaited realization of a dream of many Minglanillahanons that would later become a representation of progress that all of us will be forever grateful for. It is indeed, all in Minglanilla!”
