    what do you guys think? coz personally i want the MMDA to be abolished.
    I think think they are a waste government funds "the people's money" "our money". and also, that bayani fernando should be imprisoned for arrogance and misuse of government funds.

    The story of the MMDA goes like this:
    Good ideas, bad implementation.

    My two cents.

    Siguro it is time to change the meaning of MMDA from metro manila dev authority to:

    M - mamaya
    M - may
    D - datung
    A - ako

    siguro around 30% ng project ng MMDa ay nakatulong naman, yung nga lang may bahid na corruption si Bayani, because the footbridges, pink fences, waiting shed and etc are fabricated sa construction company ni Bayani located in Cainta beside Ever gotesco. He owned this company.

    average travel time in manila was reduced by those u-turns and what-have-you's ... that is positive development

    if bayani earns from his projects, that's another story, but i'll give him credit for having the "decency" of pocketing money along with accomplishments ... much unlike fg and abalos!

    Mabuti na lang hindi na si Binay ang MMDA chairman. Grabe -- sobrang walang ginawang mabuti yon!

    But I think the MMDA should be replaced by a governor for Metro Manila who will be elected by the people and would have the power to overrule petty mayors like Binay.

    Like it or not, Metro Manila is actually one metropolis. It should have a coordinated government -- not two dozen mayors who want to do their own thing and who act like arrogant little lords in their own cities.

    i dont see why people are mad at binay. if you look at it, he's actually done more good than bad. the only thing is, all the benefits are exclusive to makati residents. pero if ever maging mmda chairman xa, i think mas magbebenefit pa ang mga motorista. we'd be probably getting free road side assistance or maybe something better pa.

    100% agree with this. The head of the MMDA should have the power to rule over the Mayors. So Metro Manila will have a common traffic law.

    o diba naman datti si imelda ang governor dyan sa manila.atleast kahit pano regulated lahat ng kilos ng mga mayors dyan, di yong kanya kanya.maybe it's high time to return the position of governor in manila.

    afaik, naging mmda chairman na sya. at marami lang nakakapansin na mas maganda ginagawa ni bayani compared to him. not a fan of bayani here. just an opinion.

    Haha. You're kidding, right? Or are you related? Hehe.

    Binay used to be MMDA chairman during the time of Jose "Erap" Velarde and I think it is generally known he was really BAD (a disaster on par with the mayoral terms of Mel Lopez in Manila).

    Now, Binay's always trying to make things difficult for Bayani because he's clearly bitter that there are more people saying Bayani's doing a better job.

    i agree. i think bayani fernando is ok. atleast hindi siya natatakot mag try bago masabi na it will or will not work. he wants to see talaga instead of listening to people who doesn't run out of things to complain about. i may not like everything that he's doing but at least he is doing something. ang hindi lang maganda ay yung mga bataan niya na nagpapayaman kakahuli. lalo na yung sa edsa ortigas intersection. sarap sagasaan mga mmda dun!

MMDA do they really help in development? or do they just develop themselves??
