Airport exec: No adverse findings against NAIA bollards project
A car crashed into NAIA Terminal 1 on May 4, killing two people and injuring four others, despite the presence of security bollards designed to prevent such incidents.
The Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) project to install these bollards, costing P8.03 million, was completed in 2019 by Kontrak Enterprises.
This project was initiated following security audits by the United Kingdom's Department for Transport in 2017 and Australian Homeland Security in 2018, which flagged the absence of hostile vehicle mitigation measures at NAIA.
The recent crash has raised questions about the effectiveness and integrity of the bollard installation.
