alfredo lim / manila thread

[meledson]

Give Lim 1 year, you will see that he was able to do a lot for Manila.

For me he is not there to please people, but to do a job of public service.

Regarding baywalk, from what I have heard, they have no business permit, sanitary ermit, etc. So ng nag declare siya na tatanggalin niya ang mga ito. Ang mga may-ari ang nag kusa na tanggalin na.

Nakita ko na marami siyang nagawa sa Manila ng nauna siyang naupo, marami rin siyang mgagawa this time.

[ILuvDetailing]

Manila is now a dark and boring city. Nasan na yung mga lamppost? No tourist no money. Hehehe.

:fyi: Nandun pa rin mga lamp posts. Yung mga restaurants lang tinanggal.

Di pa ako nakakaabot ng Ermita eh. Sorry...

Parang ganto rin yan eh, lahat ng malls nasa tabi rin ng main road. The key to better traffic flow is having an effective traffic scheme. Kung kayang maimplement yan ni Lim, pwede ulit ibalik ang mga resto sa baywalk. Yung harbour plaza naman ay medyo malayo na sa roxas blvd. tas wala ung feel or experience na nasa tabi ka ng roxas blvd overlooking the manila bay tas kumakain ka.

Malls have dedicated parking slots for their customers, baywalk doesn't have that, kung meron man konte lang ang kayang iaccomodate, hence they use the Roxas Blvd as their parking slot, 1 or 2 lanes of it sometimes even 3 lanes, the result? Traffic, more traffice more pollution, more pollution = not good for the tourism industry. Now if they can somehow build an overpass and a parking lot, traffic could improve but thats a long shot, hey this is the Philippines.

Regarding the Baywalk, one recent news report said that the Manila city government plans to build the Manila Ocean Park on it, complete with an oceanarium, giant indoor viewing aquariums and a dolphin feeding area.

They plan to open it by December 15 of this year.

Baywalk? I don't see any major construction going on in Baywalk, baka naman sa tabi ng Mal of Asia yan.

Lim was not known for beatifying manila so i dont expect any major improvements during his term..he was more known for fighting crime. I used to live and work near a big government hospital near tayuman... pareho rin naman ang volume ng crime related cases nong mayor siya...so i was inclined to believe that he was more interested in those highly publicised crimes, thus look good in the newspapers.

So that is why I am suggesting that they improve the facilities on Baywalk. For example, they can implement a shuttle service from a nearby parking lot to baywalk and the one that you suggested.

Ano yun separate buliding na oceanarium? O gagamitin nila yung tubig sa Manila Bay? Pwede ba yun, ang dumi ng tubig dun.

[baludoy]

kumusta na ang baywalk? tagal na ko di nakakadaan sa roxas eh. maaliwalas pa din ba pag gabi?

-I hope mayor Lim will continue the programs of Mr. Atienza.Kahit magkalaban sila sa pulitika maganda ang epekto ng beautification sa Manila. I mean if manila can duplicate the work done by the Fernandos in Marikina, malaki ang i-improve ng overall socio-economic climate as well as yung environment sa manila.

-I hope Manila also will be the first LGU to purchase brand new PHUVs so that the uglyness of the those dilapidated jeeps as well as the uglyness created by jeepneys will be eliminated.


-Mayor Lim should also move all the sidewalk vendors in all manila street especially in Quiapo in one area.

-Sayang ang Quiapo tourist attraction din kaya lang dapat ma-remedy yung mga pollutions created by both vehicles and people. Ang daming vacant buildings dun dapat just like in Singapore o Shanghai i-redevelop them as shops and put all sidewalk vendors there. Just ask them to pay minimum amount.

- Lim should renovate MET theatre then ipa-renta para may revenues ang Manila. Ang daming dilapidated na government building near City Hall dapat ipa-develop thru BOT (Build-Operate-Transfer).

--Continue planting trees mayor lim para luminis ang hangin sa Manila.
--papasukin nyo ang MMDA kasi kahit papaano the MMDA brought order in the Metro. Yung lang kasing ibang mayor di maatim na mas sikat si Fernando sa kanila e.

--Bring back Manila to its former Glory Mayor LIm.
--Its still our undisputed national capital
