Mindanao rail may pivot back to China
June 22, 2026
|Manila Bulletin
The development of the long-delayed Mindanao Railway Project (MRP) could soon return to China’s hands, as the Mindanao Development Authority (MinDA) courts one of Beijing's state-owned construction firms to build the railway.
MinDA Secretary Leo Tereso Magno said he recently met with China Road and Bridge Corp. (CRBC) to explore potential collaborations on infrastructure projects in the region, including the MRP.
“They are helping the development of Mindanao. So I met with them and showed them what areas they could still enter to send more assistance and more projects to Mindanao,” Magno told the Manila Bulletin.
CRBC is currently building the 3.98-kilometer Samal Island-Davao City Connector project, which is roughly halfway complete. While the firm is best known for bridges and roads, it is no stranger to railways, having delivered major rail projects in both China and Kenya.
