Description:
PPMC joined the 3rd Quarter National Simultaneous Earthquake Drill (NSED) on September 11, 2025. Employees and locators at the San Fernando Airport followed the “duck, cover, and hold” routine, emphasizing the need for preparation and quick response during earthquakes.
PPMC recognizes that safety is a community responsibility. PPMC’s regular participation in the NSED demonstrates its dedication to improving disaster readiness, safeguarding its workers, and promoting resilience in the community.
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.
