CEBU CITY –President Rodrigo Duterte signed into law Republic Act 11751 on April 27, 2022 establishing campuses of the Cebu Technological University (CTU) in the municipalities of Liloan and Borbon in the Province of Cebu.
Liloan is a first-class municipality in the Province of Cebu that is home to a number of industries in need of technical instructions, such as livestock and vegetable farming, baking, ceramics, and manufacturing, among others.
Borbon, on the other hand is a fourth-class municipality in the Province of Cebu with farming and fishing, including crop, livestock, agriculture, farm machinery, vegetable and fodder as its sources of livelihood.
Frasco said establishing CTU satellite campuses in Liloan and Borbon will greatly benefit the families of students living in far-flung areas of the Province of Cebu.

and other fees to the residents, but more importantly, it will fulfill the State’s
policy to provide access to quality tertiary education for all,” Frasco added.
