Hi. The study will be used in the analysis of development paradigms in Mindanao and how will the Mindanao Rail play a role in this endeavor. Understanding the rationale and the criteria for the selection of the locations of the phases provides additional understanding of the economic relationships of the regions in Mindanao. Particularly, the cost-benefit analysis of its economic impact for Mindanao would greatly help us in understanding the future forecasting of economic activity along the corridors of the MindaRail.
