Under the measure, the Negros Island region will be composed of provinces, cities, municipalities and barangays in Negros Oriental, Negros Occidental and the island province of Siquijor.
Siquijor’s inclusion is logical and practical due to its proximity and cultural similarities to Negros Island, the authors of the bill said.
“We assure our Negrense brothers and sisters that this Committee will continue to fully support this measure until its final approval in the House,” Gatchalian, head of the committee, said. In a report to the committee, Alvarez said the consolidated bill has the full backing of the business sector, which includes the Metro Bacolod Chamber of Commerce and Industry and the Negros Oriental Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
