The need for NLUA
I am in favor with NLUA. The Philippine NLUA intends to establish a National Physical Framework Plan (NPFP) that sets out the country's urban, rural and regional development national strategies and objectives. The logical and comprehensive framework plan must describe the general rules and policy guidelines for the four categories of land use: protection, production, settlements, and development of infrastructure. These categories will guarantee that the lands and resources of the nation are preserved and used for all segments of society in the current and future generations in a valuable and sustainable way. Regional and provincial plans for the physical framework and comprehensive urban/municipal land use plans will be created for roughly 30 years. Thus, a mixed top-down strategy is used throughout the planning process. A national council on land use (NLUPC) will be the highest policymaking body, consisting of members of the government, corporate and market institutions, and civil society organizations. A regional land use council will be set up, while province and city-municipal land use boards will be constituted. All stakeholders must thus participate at every level. The framework Plan and guiding principles for land allocation and use and actual planning, implementation, and follow-up will be defined and represented by all sectors. The interests of all industries are then considered (e.g., agrarian reform, agricultural and fishery concerns, mining on IP lands, business and industry, and housing). However, the NLUA submitted to Congress was generally connected with anti-service since land category delimitations might limit corporate profit possibilities. This may notably apply to people who consider land to be a commodity or earn money off land instead of those who make money on land. Although the Philippines is predominantly an agricultural country, there are no limits to the supply of land for business, industry, or non-agricultural activities. For example, air space may still be utilized vertically if the ground surface is running out. Technical and legal limitations exist, though. Technically, land usage can have the highest possible load-bearing capability. Legally, there are height limitations, for example, when airport runways approach. Local zoning regulations also set building height constraints, mainly for possible traffic generation, limitations in parking space, and anesthetic considerations. The country's vast agricultural lands can best be used by employing them for the fruit of agriculturally excellent soils. Suppose the primary agricultural area is suitable for non-agricultural use. In that case, natural resources for plant development might be lost because this would neglect the soil's potentials for producing high-quality products.
