PHA bares Palawan dev’t project

Premiere Horizon Alliance Corporation (PHA) is beefing up its development plans for its R800-million property owned through subsidiary West Palawan Premiere Development Corporation (WPP).

In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange, PHA said it has brought on board real estate guru, Danilo A. Antonio, to be the President of its Palawan tourism estate subsidiary WPP.

PHA has also engaged AECOM, the 2015 Best Global Designer, to undertake WPP’s comprehensive Master Plan, with leading real estate consultant David Leechiu handling the market and environmental scanning after acquiring Vertex Land, who had completed the study.

The AECOM Master Plan will be completed this December.

Antonio brings to WPP more than three decades of high-level experience in property development, encompassing all types of land uses and all major project phases. He is the co-founder of The Land Company (LANDCO), the Punta Fuego developer and was an executive of Ayala Land.

He was a director of Bonifacio Land, COO of Eton Properties Philippines, Managing Director of Filinvest Festival Mall, President of BDO Realty Corp., and Business Development Adviser of Rockwell Land.
