Turn NCR into a highly urbanized country like Japan. While Northen Luzon will be used as a Northern agricultural zone, export processing zone and shipping hub like singapore.
Turn the Visayas and Palawan into a tourism / adventure hub for Asia similar to Hawaii , Maldives and Bahamas. Development should be hollywood style... no tall buildings and over crowded city centers. Let cruise ship companies like Carnival operate in the region to tour people all over the islands. People all over the world will want to come to the Visayas... more jobs, more business opportunities.. more stores.. more development...
To solve the situation in Mindanao, we can section off islands like Basilan, Jolo, Tawi-tawi as military bases / ports for the U.S... where Philippine military will be trained. This way, with the U.S. watching.. lesser instances of collusion between the Phil Military and the rebels.
The rest of Mindanao can be a Southern agricultural zone, export processing zone and shipping hub...similar to Northern Luzon.
I suggest 2 Agricultural, export processing and shipping hubs..because in the event of a calamity in the northern or southern part of the country, we still have backup production for the country's economy to continue. The chances of a calamity striking both luzon and mindanao is rare.... while visayas (cebu, bohol ) is mostly isolated from super typhoons due to it being in the middle part of the region.
We have to make China our close trading partner while the U.S. has a base in the country so we are safe from conflict.
So .. how about it? 2 agriculture, export and shipping hubs with a tourism buffer zone in the middle.. and a military base at the southern tip...

You got this down pretty nicely. Good plan, might be far fetched but can be done if there is a will, but you forgot one of the most vital ingredient in order for this to be realized... How can our Politicians and Church make money out of this without severely altering or deviating from the original plan?
