Senatorial candidate Leody de Guzman criticized the private operator of Ninoy Aquino International Airport for raising fees without making any improvements at the airport.
De Guzman stated that these fee hikes will not only affect overseas Filipino workers and their families but will also impact local tourism, importers, and exporters, as various airport-related services will become more expensive. “He boasts that he will make the airport world-class, but the funding for it will come from the public consumers instead of his own pocket. The problem with raising the fees is that it is a ‘pass-on’ that will ultimately be shouldered by ordinary citizens using the airport,” he said.
De Guzman mentioned that their legal team is currently studying steps to reverse the concession agreement and to immediately prevent the fee increase for using facilities at NAIA.
