(10 April 2025, Parañaque City) - The Aurora Pacific Economic Zone and Freeport Authority (APECO) took a significant step toward the full operations of its recently inaugurated Super Health Center with a meeting between its prospective health sector partners—Kairos Health and Freya Trading Inc. Through the guidance and leadership of Atty. Gil G. Taway IV, APECO President and CEO, the discussions reached a productive outcome that marks a crucial milestone in finalizing the plans that will bring essential medical services closer to the local population of Casiguran as well as employees and guests of the economic zone’s locators.
The Super Health Center is envisioned as a cornerstone of healthcare access within the economic zone and its surrounding communities where it is expected to provide a wide range of essential services from diagnostics to preventive care. Discussions during the meeting focused on operational planning, facility development, and timelines, with all parties expressing strong commitment to fast-tracking the completion of the project. The involvement of Kairos Health and Freya Trading Inc. reflects growing confidence among private partners in the viability and impact of health-related investments in APECO.
“The full operations of the Super Health Center reflects APECO’s dedication to seeing things through. It is not enough that we construct key infrastructures but also equally important is that these buildings serve their purpose,” said Atty. Gil G. Taway IV, APECO President and CEO, “we must work doubly hard to ensure that the investments we’ve made in these buildings result in services that are tenable and accessible to our locators and the community.”
With the groundwork for collaboration now laid out, APECO is moving steadily toward making the Super Health Center fully functional. This development not only aligns with the ecozone's mission to promote inclusive growth and to build social infrastructures but also demonstrates the agency's capacity to attract and to support purpose-driven investors. Once operational, the facility is expected to serve as a vital health hub in the region, improving healthcare access and setting a precedent for future public-private initiatives in the region.
