Before that, SM will have SM gasoline/diesel fuel station. Watch for the openning soon at your nearest SM branch.

Naalala ko tuloy yung mga old science fiction films where a corporation becomes so big that they make everything and control everything, even the police! I think it was Robocop.

ya

that's evolution (of absolute capitalism)

if you're a capitalist, it's natural that you want to make money wherever there's opportunity to make money

so you go into every imaginable business

o nga pala... walang media and telecom company ang SM

baka later on meron narin sila TV station, landline/wireless service...

hehe

Di nako magtataka may mga naririnig nako na ganyang ugali ng SM from their tenants....kaya ata yumaman si SM dahil sa ganyang practice..

Actually I have talked to many people who have restaurants at SM at best they are just break even and most of them lose a bit of money. But for them they just treat it as marketing expense and let the other non-SM restaurants do the money making.
