and Highways (DPWH) are targeting to further strengthen linking industries through public infrastructure.<\/p>\n<p>DTI and DPWH held their second national meeting for Roads Leveraging Linkages for Industry and Trade (ROLL IT) Program on Monday to evaluate, monitor, and plan industry-developing infrastructure projects.<\/p>\n<p>During ROLL IT Program\u2019s National Meeting, DTI and DPWH focused on improving criteria in the approval and implementation of future local road projects.<\/p>\n<p>It was in November 2016 when DTI and DPWH forged a partnership to create a convergence program on road connectivity for industry and trade development.<\/p>\n<p>The ROLL IT Program leverages on the success of DPWH\u2019s partnership with the Department of Tourism for the Tourism Road Infrastructure Program (TRIP), which upgrades roads leading to tourist destinations.<\/p>\n<p>Under the ROLL IT Program, DTI and DPWH jointly undertake planning, budgeting, advocacy for legislation, identification, evaluation, prioritization, regulation, supervision, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of industry-developing infrastructure projects in priority economic and manufacturing zones in the Philippines.<\/p>\n<p>The program also aims to fast-track industry and trade growth as the Duterte administration embarks on the golden age of infrastructure in the country.<\/p>\n<p>In the third quarter of 2017, manufacturing and trade were among the main drivers of the 6.9-percent economic growth for the said quarter.<\/p>\n<p>Industry recorded the fastest growth of 7.5 percent.<\/p>\n<p>The DTI targets an annual manufacturing growth of more than 10 percent until 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, domestic and external trade improved last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANILA\u2014 The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) are targeting to
