11 Micro Case Study - Philippine micro data, Evaluation of the highway effect on tax and non-tax revenues using as case study the Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR) in Batangas Province, Philippines, Evaluation is carried out using a quasiexperimental approach via a difference-indifference (DiD) analysis

12 Case Study: Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR) The Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR) project in Batangas province, Philippines (south of Metro Manila) is a modified Built-Operate- Transfer (BOT) project. The 4. km STAR tollway was built to improve road linkage between Metro Manila and Batangas City, provide easy access to the Batangas International Port, and thereby accelerate industrial development in Batangas and nearby provinces.

13 Method: Difference-in-Difference (DiD) Analysis Outcome = + D + D T + where: D = (Treatment group) T = Treatment period D = (Control group) = Treatment Effect Assumption: Pre- Post Equal trends between Treatment and Control groups 3

15 Outcome variable We employ data on property tax revenues, business tax revenues, regulatory fees and user charges of the cities and municipalities comprising Batangas Province, Philippines. The tax and non-tax revenues data were obtained from the Philippine Bureau of Local Government Finance (BLGF) 5
