Palace details key features of newly signed RoW law
Business World Philippines
|September 24, 2025
THE recently signed Accelerated and Reformed Right-of-Way (ARROW) will aid the Philippines in becoming an upper middleincome economy by facilitating the completion of infrastructure projects, the Presidential Communications Office (PCO) said in astatement on Tuesday.
The ARROW Act or Republic Act No. 12289, which revised key provisions of the 2016 Right-ofWay Act (R.A. No. 10752), overhauls the land acquisition process, compensation standards, expropriation and relocation rules governing infrastructure projects.
The PCO said the amended Section 10 of the law designates Republic Act No. 11966, or the 2023 Public-Private Partnership Code of the Philippines as the relevant document governing right-of-way acquisition in public-private partnership projects.

Fever stun Aces
Make no mistake. The Fever’s win on the road flipped the script. For the last couple of seasons, the Aces had made the Michelob ULTRA Arena their citadel, overwhelming visitors with sheer relentlessness. Yet, in Game 1 of the WNBA semifinals, it was the decidedly shorthanded and unproven underdogs who dictated tempo in an 89-73 shocker that belied conventional wisdom. And not for nothing was the upset recorded on the very day A’ja Wilson was crowned league Most Valuable Player.
