在我国领导人对菲律宾进行国事访问前夕，英媒《金融时报》11月19日称，中企葛洲坝集团将投资20亿美元（约139亿元人民币）在前美驻菲的克拉克空军基地打造一个工业园区；并分析称，此举显示菲总统杜特尔特日益弃美亲华的最明显迹象之一。

报道称，这一正拟议中的新项目是中国在菲律宾最大的投资之一；同时也是杜特尔特推出总值1800亿美元的“大建特建”计划中规模最大的项目之一，该计划旨在振兴菲律宾的基础设施建设。
菲基地转换与发展署（BCDA）是负责克拉克城市规划与建设的主要部门之一，主席迪赞（Vicencio Dizon）表示，本周他们将与中企葛洲坝集团公司就有关开发500公顷土地以供中国科技和制造企业使用的项目，签署一份谅解备忘录。目前菲政府正寻求把马尼拉西北地区开发成一个新的商业中心。
迪赞还表示，“一旦这些工业企业入驻，将会带来数千个工作岗位”。
报道还称，葛洲坝集团的一位高级经理也证实，该公司已“确定了这一项目的投资意向和框架”，他补充说正在等待菲方的官方反馈。
这位知情人士透露，“我们希望在此次政府高层的访问帮助下，促成与BCDA的合作”，“不过目前仍处于商业保密阶段，具体信息必须由上市公司宣布”。
据新华社消息，应杜特尔特邀请，中国国家主席习近平11月20到21日将对菲进行为期两天的国事访问。
在回答新华社记者关于对两国关系未来走势有何期待的提问时，杜特尔特说，菲中命运休戚与共，维持两国友好关系符合彼此利益。他期待菲中之间的经贸合作持续成长，也期待两国人民进一步密切友好往来，此外菲律宾也愿意在国防安全及维护区域和平稳定方面加强与中国的合作。
据了解，克拉克自由港区是原为美国空军的克拉克空军基地，拆迁归还给菲政府后改建而成的经贸发展特区。该区毗邻马巴拉卡特市，距离东南方的菲律宾首都马尼拉市约60公里。
报道指出，葛洲坝集团并不是近几个月来首家在菲建立大规模业务的公司。19日，菲律宾国家电信委员会宣布，由中国电信与一家菲律宾集团组成的联合体，正式成为该国第三家全国性电信运营商。
自2016年杜特尔特上台以来，菲律宾和中国建立了友好关系，以减少菲长期对美国的依赖。2016年杜特尔特访华期间，两国曾就铁路、港口和其他基础设施项目建设达成了共150亿美元的协议。
报道援引菲律宾大学海事与海洋法研究所所长巴东巴卡尔（Jay Batongbacal）的话批评称，这些协议将使天平向中方倾斜，并声称中国影响力或将“渗透”到菲律宾的政治上。
而迪赞表示，“并不知道这些指责说的是什么，但投资就是投资”。
观察者网查询葛洲坝集团官网得知，早在今年8月，主席迪赞、菲律宾国会议员亚瑟、菲驻华商务参赞佩尼亚兰达一行，曾到访葛洲坝国际公司北京总部。
双方就深化工业园区、铁路等基础设施领域务实合作，进行了坦诚深入交流，并达成广泛共识、取得积极成效。
当时葛洲坝集团公司总经理吕泽翔表示，愿充分发挥自身优势，深入参与菲律宾工业园区、公路、铁路等领域的经济建设与投资。同时也期待与菲基地转换发展署保持密切沟通，通力协作，为菲经济发展注入新动能。迪赞则表示，葛洲坝集团国际业务领域高度契合菲律宾经济建设发展需求。

On the eve of our state’s state visit to the Philippines, the British media “Financial Times” said on November 19 that the Chinese company Gezhouba Group will invest 2 billion US dollars (about 13.9 billion yuan) to build a former US Air Force Base in Clark The industrial park; and analysis said that this move shows that Philippine President Duterte is one of the most obvious signs of the growing abandonment of the United States.

The report said that the proposed new project is one of China's largest investments in the Philippines; it is also one of the largest projects in Duterte's $180 billion “Building Special” program. The plan is to revitalize the infrastructure of the Philippines.
The Philippine Base Conversion and Development Agency (BCDA) is one of the main departments responsible for Clark's urban planning and construction. Chairman Vicencio Dizon said that this week they will develop 500 hectares of land for China with the Chinese company Gezhouba Group. A memorandum of understanding is signed for projects used by technology and manufacturing companies. The Philippine government is currently seeking to develop the northwestern region of Manila into a new commercial center.
Dizan also said that “once these industrial enterprises will enter, they will bring thousands of jobs”.
The report also said that a senior manager of Gezhouba Group also confirmed that the company has "determined the investment intention and framework of this project", he added that he is waiting for official feedback from the Philippines.
The person familiar with the matter said, "We hope to cooperate with BCDA with the help of the senior government visits." "But it is still in the stage of commercial confidentiality, and the specific information must be announced by the listed company."
According to Xinhua News Agency, at the invitation of Duterte, Chinese President Xi Jinping will pay a two-day state visit to the Philippines from November 20 to 21.
In response to a question from Xinhua News Agency reporters about the future of the relationship between the two countries, Duterte said that the Philippines and China have a good relationship and it is in the interest of each other to maintain friendly relations between the two countries. He hopes that the economic and trade cooperation between the Philippines and China will continue to grow. He also looks forward to further close and friendly exchanges between the two peoples. In addition, the Philippines is willing to strengthen cooperation with China in safeguarding national security and maintaining regional peace and stability.
It is understood that the Clark Freeport Zone was originally the Clark Air Force Base of the US Air Force. The demolition was returned to the Philippine Government and the economic and trade development zone was rebuilt. The area is adjacent to the city of Mabarakart, about 60 km from the Philippine capital of Manila in the southeast.
The report pointed out that Gezhouba Group is not the first company to establish a large-scale business in the Philippines in recent months. On the 19th, the Philippine National Telecommunications Commission announced that the consortium of China Telecom and a Philippine group officially became the country's third national telecom operator.
Since Duterte took office in 2016, the Philippines and China have established friendly relations to reduce Philippine's long-term dependence on the United States. During Duterte's visit to China in 2016, the two countries reached a total of 15 billion US dollars in agreements on railway, port and other infrastructure projects.
The report quoted Jay Batongbacal, director of the Institute of Maritime and Maritime Law at the University of the Philippines, as saying that these agreements would tilt the balance to the Chinese side and claim that China's influence would "infiltrate" into the politics of the Philippines.
Dizan said, "I don't know what these accusations say, but investment is investment."
Observer Network query Gezhouba Group official website learned that as early as August this year, Chairman Dizan, Philippine Congressman Arthur, Philippine Commercial Counselor Peña Randa and his party visited Gezhouba International Corporation Beijing headquarters.
The two sides carried out honest and in-depth exchanges on deepening the pragmatic cooperation in infrastructure areas such as industrial parks and railways, and reached broad consensus and achieved positive results.
At that time, Lu Zexiang, the general manager of Gezhouba Group, expressed his willingness to give full play to his own advantages and deeply participate in economic construction and investment in the industrial parks, highways and railways in the Philippines. At the same time, we also look forward to maintaining close communication with the Philippine Base Conversion Development Agency and working together to inject new momentum into the Philippine economic development. Dizan said that Gezhouba Group's international business field is highly compatible with the economic development needs of the Philippines.
