I’ll be making it a personal quest to try to find out how they are going to do this. This just seems wrong to me in so many levels. First I thought they were referring to multipliers effect etc, but this figure just seems wrong to me.<\/p>\n

\nMANILA, Philippines<\/a> \u2013 President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo<\/a> said the construction of an alternate entry point to the North Luzon Expressway<\/a> (NLEX) via Mindanao<\/a> Avenue would generate some 100,000 jobs.
\nThe President led the groundbreaking of the NLEX Phase 2-Circumferential 5 project on Mindanao Avenue, near the Valenzuela City<\/a> border on Thursday.
\n\u201cOne hundred thousand jobs are available in the construction of this network,\u201d Arroyo said in a chat with construction workers and truck drivers at the site.
\nShe said the alternate entry point to the NLEX, Metro Manila<\/a>\u2019s gateway to Central and Northern Luzon, would reduce travel time.
\nTraffic is usually heavy in the Balinatawak Area, where the main entry point to the NLEX is located.
\nThis is aggravated by the construction of the Metro Rail Transit<\/a> (MRT) extension from North Avenue<\/a> in Quezon City<\/a> to Monumento in Caloocan City<\/a>.
