PHP800 million set aside for Intramuros improvements

Hopefully, they’ll fix the things that need to be fixed before they focus on beautifying the spot. 

“To attract more tourists and in preparation for Pope Francis’ January 2015 visit, the government has allotted PHP800 million to spruce up Intramuros,” reports Raffy Santos on ABS-CBNnews.com.

The first things the project will tackle are Fort Santiago and Plaza de Roma. There’s also a plan to build the Intramuros Museum.

The report said that the initial projects are targeted to be completed within one year.
