Another airport to be built near Boracay starting April 2009.

It's another good news that they will be building another airport near Boracay, this way there will be more options for local and foreign tourist. But however the construction will merely start at April this year and the question is until when it will be expected to be finished : ). Hope that the local as well as the national government will be really serious about this project, though however we understand that sometimes they need to attend to a more serious matters both financially and policy wise, but however hope that this project will also be one way to address the local tourist improvement to further help in the development of the country which would address to those things.

I tried to locate at Google Map this place called the Carabao Island, located in San Jose which is located and found this site on Google Map.

I found out that it is in the North part of Boracay Island, however since the airport is an International one so that is the reason why they needed a bigger land and space like the Carabao island.

I think that there will be a need for a Ferry and/or 'Banca' travel going to Boracay island since it is separated by water but however it is more nearer compare going there via Kalibo airport.
