DPWH eyes January 2026 opening of P46-M Bukidnon highway detour
CAGAYAN DE ORO, Philippines – The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) in Northern Mindanao announced that an over P46-million detour near a collapsed section of a key highway linking Cagayan de Oro, Bukidnon, and Davao is scheduled to open in January 2026.
Already 65% complete, the four-lane alternate route in Sitio Kipolot, Barangay Palacapao, Quezon town, Bukidnon, is being built after heavy rain triggered a landslide in October, killing an elderly couple riding a tricycle and cutting traffic between Northern Mindanao and Davao regions.
The disruption has caused estimated economic losses of at least P187 million a day, or 1.19% of Northern Mindanao’s gross regional domestic product, according to Mylah Faye Aurora Cariño, director of the Department of Economy, Planning, and Development.
Officials earlier warned that losses could reach P14 billion if the disruption continues until December 31 and may climb to P48.1 billion if the highway is not fully rehabilitated by June 30, 2026.
“Currently our engineers are correcting the grade of the road surface. By January there will be only minor activities to finish the project,” DPWH-X information officer Novie Cabrido said on Monday, December 15.
The 460-linear meter detour, being built at a cost of P46.6 million using the DPWH Quick Response Fund, is not yet cemented but will be passable for heavy trucks and vehicles, she added.
Public Works Secretary Vince Dizon ordered the detour after the mountain road collapsed, severing a vital economic link for the region.
“Our engineers were given 45 days to complete the road detour project to ease the burden of the truckers and vehicle owners,” Cabrido said.
A separate DPWH diversion allows only small and light vehicles to pass, forcing larger trucks to take alternative routes that add 60 to 100 kilometers to their trips.
Additional travel and logistics costs for truckers could total P132 million. Local farmers and vegetable vendors also face losses from double handling, spoilage, and delays, estimated at P55 million a day. – Rappler.com

China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise
The post China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. China Blocks Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D as Local Chips Rise China’s internet regulator has ordered the country’s biggest technology firms, including Alibaba and ByteDance, to stop purchasing Nvidia’s RTX Pro 6000D GPUs. According to the Financial Times, the move shuts down the last major channel for mass supplies of American chips to the Chinese market. Why Beijing Halted Nvidia Purchases Chinese companies had planned to buy tens of thousands of RTX Pro 6000D accelerators and had already begun testing them in servers. But regulators intervened, halting the purchases and signaling stricter controls than earlier measures placed on Nvidia’s H20 chip. Image: Nvidia An audit compared Huawei and Cambricon processors, along with chips developed by Alibaba and Baidu, against Nvidia’s export-approved products. Regulators concluded that Chinese chips had reached performance levels comparable to the restricted U.S. models. This assessment pushed authorities to advise firms to rely more heavily on domestic processors, further tightening Nvidia’s already limited position in China. China’s Drive Toward Tech Independence The decision highlights Beijing’s focus on import substitution — developing self-sufficient chip production to reduce reliance on U.S. supplies. “The signal is now clear: all attention is focused on building a domestic ecosystem,” said a representative of a leading Chinese tech company. Nvidia had unveiled the RTX Pro 6000D in July 2025 during CEO Jensen Huang’s visit to Beijing, in an attempt to keep a foothold in China after Washington restricted exports of its most advanced chips. But momentum is shifting. Industry sources told the Financial Times that Chinese manufacturers plan to triple AI chip production next year to meet growing demand. They believe “domestic supply will now be sufficient without Nvidia.” What It Means for the Future With Huawei, Cambricon, Alibaba, and Baidu stepping up, China is positioning itself for long-term technological independence. Nvidia, meanwhile, faces…
