CLARK FREEPORT --- Citing personal reasons, the president and chief executive officer (CEO) of Clark Development Corporation (CDC) has resigned from his post.
The resignation of CDC president and CEO Noel F. Manankil is effective October 30, 2020, according to CDC Communications Department Manager Noel Tulabut.

She said that it was just last year — on May 31, 2019 — that they successfully banished from our shores 69 garbage-laden containers from Canada, of which 67 had stayed here in Subic in their putrid condition for several years.
“We don’t want that sordid chapter in our history to happen again,” Eisma said.
This was the statement of Eisma after the Bureau of Customs at the Port of Subic (BOC-Subic) on Saturday, October 17, 2020, raised an alert over two shipments consisting of 30 container vans declared to be containing old corrugated cartons for re-pulping.
The shipments were transported from the United States via the container ship Ever Lyric and consigned to Bataan 2020, Inc., a paper manufacturer with a mill in Samal, Bataan.
The alert was based on information from the Department of the Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) that said shipments are suspected to be in violation of R.A. 10863, or An Act Modernizing the Customs and Tariff Administration, in relation to DERNR Administrative Order 2013-22 (Revised Procedures and Standards for the Management of Hazardous Wast es) .
After initial examination of five container vans, BOC-Subic declared that “the shipment revealed prohibited waste materials which were illegally imported.” BOC-Subic said it will undertake further inventory “to ascertain the volume and actual contents of the shipment.” (Ric Sapnu)
