Description:
Poro Point Management Corporation (PPMC) participated in the 2025 1st Quarter National Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) held on March 13, 2025.
During the drill, PPMC personnel actively demonstrated the duck, cover, and hold protocols, enhancing their knowledge of vital emergency response techniques essential during earthquake situations.
PPMC recognizes the significance of disaster preparedness and workplace safety, and it remains dedicated to safeguarding both its personnel and the community through continued support of quarterly NSED initiatives.
The Poro Point Freeport Zone used to house the former Wallace Air Station. The enactment of Republic Act 7227 (Bases Conversion and Development Act) on March 19, 1992 and Proclamation No. 216 on July 27, 1993 effectively transferred the stewardship of the Freeport to the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA) to facilitate its conversion into a productive economic growth center.
