    BACOLOD CITY, Philippines – Top officials of Negros Occidental and Negros Oriental are divided over the idea to include another province in the newly-formed Negros Island Region.

    This, after Interior Secretary Manuel Roxas II announced last week, during his visit to the two provinces, that Siquijor is thinking about separating from Central Visayas or Region 7 to join the new Negros region.

    Roxas said that the travel time for residents of Siquijor to Cebu, where the regional offices of Central Visayas are located, takes about 5 hours, while it takes only an hour to get to Negros Oriental.

    Now, This makes sense and it is nice to hear that some are giving much thought to Alternatives, Instead of just putting up with Things.

    Makes perfect sense. That's why it's doomed not to happen :-)
