So Much Progress in Santiago City and Cauayan In Isabela

The AGSB Advantage

MM residents have probably thought that the center of universe is Metro Manila.  In my travel yesterday to Region II (to accompany business friends negotiate with a cooperative bank in Isabela) I had the opportunity to see for the first time progress in the above mentioned cities.  I had student in the standard program (they own an RB and gasoline station) and in Santiago MBAH:  one owns an ambulatory center and the other one a hospital.

I was only able to see their own enterprises, but I did not see the context of the enterprise in the city.  The cities have facilities and conveniences found in MM and they are progressive.  This is perhaps fueled by faster and easier travel:   SCTEX, the bus companies.  The roads are undergoing major upgrading (they are now 8 to l0 inches thick) and probably with correct concrete mix.

The sight in these two cities mean that progress has really trickled down to the regions and provinces.  So the people in the provinces need not go to the city.  AGSB is probably contributing to this growth through its MBA programs.
