Lapu-Lapu City News

A world-class convention center will rise in Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu which could serve as venue for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations Summit to be hosted by the Philippines in 2026.

President Marcos and Alliance Global Group Inc. chief executive officer Kevin Tan lead the capsule-laying ceremony for Megaworld’s grand township Mactan Expo Center at Mactan Newtown in Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu yesterday. Also in photo are Speaker Martin Romualdez and Special Assistant to the President Anton Lagdameo.

“And I did not realize that when he went to the bathroom – he did not really go to the bathroom – but he went to talk to his people already, that’s why it was – it’s always good to work with people like Kevin, who do not waste any time,” the President said. Marcos said the project would further strengthen Lapu-Lapu City’s position as a major destination for key business events, both local and international.

The convention center is also a strategic development, considering its proximity to the Mactan-Cebu International Airport and the world-class resorts and hotel developments on the island, he said. Marcos earlier issued Administrative Order 17, creating a council to organize the country’s hosting of the ASEAN Summit meetings in 2026.
