**Asia CEO Forum CLARK**, presented by **PLDT Enterprise**, with Elite Sponsorship by **Colliers International**, **Regus**, **Veritaspay** highlights the region of Pampanga and specifically the Clark Freeport Zone, considered the future economic hub of central Luzon. Business leaders across the country are worried about the loss of employment resulting from TRAIN 2. Manufacturing and BPO, in particular, are very worried since many will be forced by clients to move the work to other countries with losses in current and future employment by Filipinos. Given the fantastic achievements of the government and especially Secretary Dominguez in reforming his department, business people are concerned that the support of the government by the people will suffer because of a slowing economy and reduced employment. As Metro Manila becomes a giant gridlock, the only alternative for growth oriented organizations is Clark, in the opinion of many. Its world-class infrastructure and huge employee base is built on one of the largest aviation complexes in Asia. Clark has modern highways connecting it north, south and to the massive Subic seaport. Modern rail links are in advanced planning stages. Join **Asia CEO Forum CLARK** to hear what is happening in the countrys largest infrastructure project with 4,400 hectares under development (plus another 27,600 hectares in sub-zone).
