SM to open third mall in Pampanga

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO—SM Prime Holdings Inc. (SMPH) will open on Friday its 44th mall in the country.
In a statement, the SMPH said SM City San Fernando is “strategically located right at the heart of the city in line the heritage district.” The 7-story mall is only a few meters from the city hall and the Metropolitan Cathedral of San Fernando.
In October 2000, SMPH opened its first mall in Central Luzon at the boundary of this city and Mexico town, while another mall is in Clark, Angeles City.
SM Pampanga is about six kilometers away from SM City San Fernando.
Gov. Lilia Pineda and mayor Oscar Rodriguez, who supported the establishment of the third Sy-owned mall in Pampanga, are expected to lead the blessing and inauguration of the mall on Thursday afternoon.
The SMPH said the high-rise mall has a total land area of 7,835 square meters (sqm) and 28,753 sqm of floor area. Major tenants are SM Department Store and SM Supermarket which will occupy 8,189.39 sqm and 2,578.01 sqm, respectively.
“The mall and its exterior heritage design will please every shopper to its convenient, secured, and fun-loaded worry-free shopping. Anchor tenants like the SM Department Store, SM Supermarket, SM Cinema plus fashion, electronics, beauty wellness shops, vital services and restaurants with three levels of parking will provide the best shopping experience that everyone is looking for,” said the SMPH statement.
This development came as the SMPH started in January the rehabilitation of the SM Clark in Angeles City. The work reportedly worth at least P.5 billion is expected to be completed by March 2013.
Ana Datu, SM Clark assistant mall manager, said site development had been completed and new and additional parking lots are now ready for use. “We are in the process of connecting the new expansion building with the main mall. This is the reason we have to temporarily close the meeting place area and reroute traffic,” said Datu.
The expansion at the SM Clark branch opened in 2006 will be for its additional retail stores and business process outsourcing offices. It sits on a 16-hectare area at boundary of Angeles City and Mabalacat.

Ngayon, hintayin ko nalang mag total boom ang Camachiles/Mabiga barangays para ma convert na yung Hypermarket dito sa isang full pledge mall. Sayang kasi, ang laki masyado ng lupa kung san to nakatayo para sa Hypermarket lang.

Dami aabangan this week. sa Friday opening ng SM San Fernando, sa Sabado, plebiscite ng Cityhood dito. Sa Lingo, Birthday ko......joke :lol:

ano un snsavi mo before na baka subd. un clearing sa tabi ng hypermarket.
dapat binili nlng SM un para expand gawin SM CITY in the future.
un SM SF wala pa pala 1hectare un lot nila. so un 1hectare property ay pwd na gawin SM CITY :-)

3 years lang kung may bagong mayor kakayanin. Kasi mag start na agad madaming projects pag nagka ganun. Ilang years ba in the making ang Mabalacat cityhood? Courtesy ba ni mayor or nahinog nalang dahil sa pag boom ng business in the nearby Clark?

July 17th, 2012, 05:51 PM

Ask ko lng wala ba share sa tax kht konti ang Mabalacat sa SM Clark Main?

ang sabi kasi sa Press release above.

".It sits on a 16-hectare area at boundary of Angeles City and Mabalacat."

may possibility may nakuha lot sa main bldg ang mabalacat kasi mahaba din un lenght and width ng sm..

Yung SM Clark Main ay nasa loob lahat ng Angeles. This is according to Angeles City Info Office. Or siguro, bakanteng lote lang muna ang meron ang SM sa Mabalacat side, until nga itong expansion, kung saan magkakaroon na talaga ng income-generating establishments sa Mabalacat side.

Kung maging city ang Guagua, baka magspill ang development sa Lubao.

Makaka-contribute din sa pag-asenso ng Lubao ang pag-boom ng Floridablanca (sana due to SCTex, Pampanga Highlands sa Nabuclod, at Summerplace, umasenso ang Fblanca).

Tung binabalak ng coastal road sa Pampanga, baka maka-contribute din

Sad to hear that San Fernando and San Jose Del Monte City
were classified as two of the three (3) Bottom Cities in terms of Per Capita Income. Sad because they're both from Region III..

Kalbaryo talaga ang mga IS na tinatapon dito, once matapon sila dito counted agad as part of the population. hays..
in reality those IS are from those Top 10 Cities in the Philippines with Highest Total Income, amft! :bash::bash::bash:[/QUOTETHIS
THIS IS TOTALLY UN BELIVABLE,.....where did you get this information,..

kht nga ako di makapaniwala siguro lng it was honest mistakes on the part of data sa SF

basahin mo un points ko sa previous post ko.

kung ang Per Capita = income tax divided by population

eto ang malaki punto ko ay ang COA

sa COA meron data about income

eh ang highest income in central luzon in 2010 COA Report is 1. Olongapo 2.SF (alam ko 985M) 3. Angeles.

kung cno masipag pakipost ang 2010 COA Report. nakaindicate naman doon sa coa ang local income at un ira.

Ang Population ng SF ay nsa around 280k ang Angeles ay 300K+

oh db laki disparity sa report ng ncsb

one of the criteria sa awards na natangap ng SF ay ang good collection nito sa income tax

ang nakolekta income tax ng SF sa 2011 1st half (january-june) ay 600M+ na tax palang yan wala IRA.

im sure Billionaire City na ang Angeles and SF mlapit na ilabas 2011 Coa

OO sir karisma, I have visited the Betis Church and I must say it is simply majestic, the paintings done are divine and the ornate carvings on the church doors are simply one of a kind.

Nalilito rin po ako sir Perseus dyan na boundary ng Camachiles at Mabiga. May mga source na Mabiga ang address, meron naman na Camachiles. Matagal pa siguro bago mag expand yang Hypermarket since ang SM Clark, 6 years muna ang hinintay bago na expand. nung 2010 palang yan na convert so mga 2016 pa siguro bago gawing full service mall and by that time, e medyo realized na ang pagiging city ng Mabalacat si feasible na ito.

@Karisma, sa basa ko, 2009 yang report ng NSCB sa per capita income. Pwede nyo naman check kung may doubt kayo. 2009 total income / 2009 total population. I think BLGF ang source ng NSCB.

Delays in Clark airport dev’t a compromise for 2016 elections

Luciano noted that the CIA is not at a standstill, as he cited an ongoing feasibility study funded from a grant from the Asia Foundation for the construction of a new low cost terminal similar to Kuala Lumpur’s. This would cover about 30 hectares, he added.

Luciano explained that this study, for which the government is not spending at all, is different from another costing P100 million from DOTC funds.

“The P100-million feasibility study would cover everything, including the vertical structures all over the 2,000-hectare aviation complex,” he noted. He recalled that other studies in the past were “mere land use plans” that identified where features of the aviation complex are to be located.

Luciano stressed that the new lost cost terminal, which is the subject of the Asia Foundation-funded feasibility study, would accommodate 10 million passengers annually. “It would be finished and fully operational by 2015,” he added.

Di ko lang mapost coa report celphone lng gamit ko :-)

you cant call data by legitimate government bodies as illegitimate just because they don't match your perception of your hometown.

in the report, it even mentioned:

Other Metro Manila cities with their own business districts, such as Quezon City, Manila, and Taguig, are conspicuously absent from the Top 10 per capita income list but are still money-makers overall.

Quezon City, for example, is actually the No.1 city in terms of total income, posting a huge P10.3 billion income in 2009. Manila is No. 3 while Taguig City (location of The Fort Global City) is No. 10 in the total income list. Despite huge total incomes, these cities have low per capita income because of the large number of their population.

instead of being in denial, why not just check kung bakit mababa ang per capita income ng San Fernando kahit na mataas naman sila bilang "money-maker" city. di lang naman San Fernando... look at Cagayan De Oro, it's part of the bottom 10, too, habang CDO is a very progressive city.

COA is a government arm just like NCSB. Yung mga professional statisticians, nasa NCSB talaga.

In any case, these data are 2009 data. Maybe SF is no longer in the bottom 3 in the years that followed.

Hopefully, the city mayors will seriously and objectively look at these statistics to help them pinpoint areas of concern that they could focus on to improve the situation in their cities.
-NCSB

don't worry. even NCSB is surprised. Now the task is to find out why.

And isn’t it surprising to see San Fernando (Region III), Cavite, Malabon, and Cagayan de Oro among the bottom 10 in Per Capita Income?

i did not say BGLF as "illegitimate" i use the word "reliable" its not the same meaning.

im sure why
Manila, QC, is not included on the top because heavily populated s in millions, population ata QC 2M+ na ata kaya mababa per capita despite multibillions income. CDO has a population of not less than 600K.

un SF is not populated around 250K (2009) pero mataas naman income.

you're taking this emotionally. we're trying to solve it why it's like this. you can't just move on from something that's purely statistical. that's not very scientific and enlightening.

as for myself, I would like to keep on researching about what could have caused it.

since you mentioned na mataas ang income ng San Fernando noong 2009, can we have the actual number, so we can compute it with the population of SF back in 2009?

librero

July 18th, 2012, 07:31 AM

here's something worse for San Fernando (in 2009).

In NCSB's chart, San Fernando (P) is the BOTTOM-MOST city in terms of IRA per capita (internal revenue allotment divided by the population of the city).

http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/2817/irapercapita.jpg

something must have happened to San Fernando in 2009 that caused all this. What could it be? Sudden increase in population? Low income that year? Etc. From #79 in 2008, it fell 55 spots down to the bottom-most number.

Look at the other cities included in the bottom list... They are also known as progressive cities, yet they have the lowest IRA per capita.

IRA per capita can't actually be a basis para masabing worse ang San Fernando because it is outside San Fernando's control... Low income has nothing to do with IRA... Population? Pwede... pero dapat nating maaalala na kapag mas malaki ang population, mas malaki dapat ang IRA na nakukuha...

Ang tingin ko jan ay dahil sa population density... Lumaki nga ang population pero ang area ng SF ay maliit... While the increase in population dictates an increase in IRA, we shoud still consider the area of the place which is actually also considered in the computation of IRA... Dumami ang tao at tumaas ang population density...

yun siguro ang dahilan kung bakit lumiit ang IRA ng SF per capita...

July 18th, 2012, 09:55 AM

pero kung per Family/individual income ang usapan
i think among the top ang San Fernando

try to look at research or survey na sinasabi ko na pinost ni sisigman SF has high number of middle class family breakdown natin

CLASS AB (VERY RICH) .2%

CLASS C+ (RICH) 8.3%

CLASS C (Middle class) 59.%

CLASS D (poor) 31.3%

CLASS E (poorest of the poor) 1.1%

so almost 70% ang combine ng
very rich + ..rich +..middle class

nasagot ang katanungan kung bakit madami mall dito at businesses
mataas ng standard of living in SF ng bawal pamilya malakas ang kakayahan bumili.
.

bsta ako masaya na ako dito almost 70% mataas na yan
sa bawat 10 kabahayan sa San Fernando 7 dun ay nasa bracket na very rich - rich - middle class

yan ang mahalaga sa akin ang standard of living sa isang ciudad/town at naibibigay ang serbisyo publiko ng pamayanan. pag mataas ang kalidad ng buhay kaya magpaaral, may kakayahan bumili, kaya overall attractive sa mga investor ang SF pag marami biznez meaning marami din work pag may work meron ka spending power at more income din sa ciudad ganyan ang cycle :-)

I have a few notions about this... though I am no expert on the subject matter.

Correct me if I am wrong :)

I dont think Angeles City shares taxes with Mabalacat regarding SM Clark :)

As far as I know, SM Clark doesn't pay local taxes. What it does is pay the land rentals to CDC which is based on percentage on revenue or a minimum guaranteed lease. I think it also pays a percentage amount deriving from its operations.

But the workers and tenants at the mall will pay their local taxes to the local government which is Angeles City.

Tingnan nyo... halos lahat ng tenants ng SM Clark kumuha ng business permit (sanitary, fire, zoning etc..) sa Angeles City Government at hindi sa Mabalacat. :)

kaya kahit na may side na ang SM Clark sa Mabalacat (parking lot), walang nagbayad ng local tax dahil wala naman pong tenant dun... :)

As of now wala... and I dont think there will ever be. As far as I know, the court has already ruled the tax issues before (just cant find my source).

Mas accurate to kesa sa BLGS , mas malapit ang figures nya sa COA (based sa 2010 income). Billionaire na talaga ang San Fernando, sigurado pati Angeles. Mabalacat naman nag increase ng 30M ang income...umabot na sa 500M (mas tama to kesa dun sa BLGS na almost 700M, 300M increase :lol:). Porac umabot na sa 200M (salamat sa quarry) and sigurado yung Mexico mas mataas pa sa Porac. Good to see na Masantol and San Simon, malapit na mag 100M. And based sa preliminary report na to....wala nang municipality below 50M ang income, ma maintain lang nila to for another year, first class municipality na lahat ng town sa Pampanga :cheers: (tho im nervous for Sasmuan, umabot na kaya sila ng 50M? Last year kasi 47M na sila)

After Mabalacat, Porac na ang pinakamayaman! :banana::banana: No wonder andaming construction along Angeles-Porac-Dinalupihan Road sa may Manibaug Libutad/Pasig areas, pati yung guts ng Porac to transfer the munisipyo to a bigger location.

Quarrying + Tourism really pays off for Porac.

PHOENIX RISING: P150-b Clark city

By Jess Malabanan | Posted on July 08, 2012 | 12:01am | 3 Comments

Like the mythical phoenix rising from its ashes, a vast expanse of land rendered barren by Mt. Pinatubo’s volcanic ash and lahar flows is slowly but steadily coming to life.

Underground labyrinth. Pipes andfiber optics are installed beneath the ground. Jess Malabanan

Situated right in the heart of the Clark Free Port in Pampanga, a P150-billion state-of-the art industrial-residential complex project is going full blast.

The project, called Sabah Al-Ahmad Global Gateway Logistics City, is envisioned to become a transport-logistics hub, aero park, medical center and an investors’ haven, among other business activities.

“I see the entire areas fully developed in the next 10 years,” said Jeff Pradhan, director for business development at Peregrine Development Int’l, the American partner of Sabah Al-Ahmad.

Named after a Kuwaiti emir, the Sabah Al-Ahmad Global Gateway is a 15-minute drive from the Free Port’s main gate. It is parallel to the Clark International Airport, which makes the place a perfect blend of prime real state and facilities for all the business needs.

Pampanga Gov. Lilia Pineda says of the project: “It is an honor for Pampanga and Central Luzon as well to have this kind of project and a huge one at that.”

For his part, Mabalacat Mayor Marino Morales, is also upbeat. “It will spur economic activities and generate lots of jobs.”

The planned Aerotropolis is situated 30 minutes from Subic Bay Freeport via Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway.

The developers take pride in having all utility and infrastructure placed beneath the ground. “All the utility pipes and power cables including fiber optics are underground,” said Pradhan.

Work on the underground “labyrinth” costs $35 million (about P12 billion) excluding the newly constructed road network, he said.

The construction, Pradhan said is being done, taking into consideration the quality of work and in accordance with the international standards.

The roads are 35 meters wide, meaning ample space, Pradhan said.

The facade of Global Gateway Logistics City.

The project broke ground in 2008 but Peregrine stepped into the picture only in 2010.

The Global Gateway Logistics City is subdivided into four major zones: 72-hectares Logistics Park; 58-ha Business Park; 27-ha Aero Park and 21-ha Town Center.

The Logistics Park will house aviation support activities, distribution centers, multi-modal transport hub, light industries and manufacturing facilities.

The Business Park will cater to corporate centers, financial and operational offices, support services, hotels and condominiums.

Aircraft modeling and simulation centers, air crew facilities, medical schools and hospitals will form part of the Aero Park area.

Iconic buildings will be built at the Town Center, which will have a commercial strip, fine dining restaurants, shops and boutiques and convention center, among other amenities.

“Just imagine, you will have a big number of occupational activities in the entire Aerotropolis,” Pradhan said.

Victor Luciano, president of Clark International Airport, said the project would “complement our program and vision for the airport and the Free Port being an investment haven.

Overwhelming Yes seen in plebiscite

MABALACAT, Pampanga – “By the grace of God, by the sovereign will of the people, we are now a city!”

So practised last Wednesday Mayor Marino “Boking” Morales of the opening spiel of what could be the most important speech of is his life – the declaration of Mabalacat City – in Monday’s flag-raising ceremony.

The plebiscite is on Saturday – July 21 – yet, but Morales cocksureness of “an overwhelming Yes” vote is well-placed.

“Hundreds of happy, chanting residents packed all sorts of vehicles and joined our miting de avance around town culminating at the jampacked Xevera clubhouse,” Morales told an assembled group of mediamen.

“We met on the road the oppositor to cityhood, Vice Mayor Noel Castro, having his own motorcade by his lonesome. If that is not a clear indication of the vote on Saturday, I don’t know what is,” a confident Morales said.

No credible, much less considerable opposition to the Mabalacat cityhood was raised during the campaign that started July 5.

Even Castro was a signatory to the sangguniang bayan resolution that sought the first class municipality’s transformation into a component city. Castro laso participated in the lobbying during the House and Senate deliberations on the cityhood resolutions, authored by 1st District Rep. Carmelo Lazatin.

Thus, Castro made the singular object of criticism of the pro-cityhood forces during the campaign.

“The ayes have it,” said Diosdado Pangilinan, chair of the Mabalacat Water District and interim president of the Mabalacat Business Club.

“The people well understand the benefits a Mabalacat City will bring, in terms of addition to the IRA (internal revenue allotment) befitting cities, in terms of more programs and projects,” he added.

“The people are too intelligent to fall for the misinformation and lies bandied about by Castro of higher taxes cityhood was supposed to bring.”

Industrial and business establishments in Mabalacat, from the Trust International Paper Corp. to housing development giant Hausland, to Sogo Hotel down to the stalls of Marina and Dau Mart as well as Puregold and Jenra supermarkets united with the residents in campaigning for a Yes vote in the plebiscite.

Gov. Lilia G. Pineda openly endorsed cityhood and went out of her way to meet Wednesday evening with all the barangay leaders to assure them of the continuing support of the Capitol after Mabalacat became a city.

This, to dispel misinformation that once turned into a city, Mabalacat would be deprived of fund allotment from the provincial government.

“Katulad lang ng San Fernando kung saan patuloy ang suporta ng Kapitolyo, ganundin pag siyudad na ang Mabalacat, pati na ang sarili kong suporta,” the governor told her audience who responded with thunderous applause.

“It’s all over but the counting. We are now a city,” Morales said.

Overwhelming Yes, yan din ang prediction ko. Pero yung Mayor namin, sobrang excited, nag praktis na ng Cityhood Speech amf. Kung may dahilan man kung bat ok lang manalo ang No Vote para sakin ngayon, ito yung para makita ang dismayado nyang speech :lol::lol::lol:

Nagkasalubong pala ang Motorcade ng Yes campaign at no campaign....awkward :lol::lol::lol:

Hindi po, under pa rin sya sa Pampanga like San Fernando. Mga Highly Urbanized Cities (HUC) lang ang independent. Pasok na ang Mabalacat sa pagiging HUC pagdating sa income, sa population nalang, as of 2010, 215k palang ang population ng Mabalacat, sa pagkakaalam ko ay 250k dapat ang minimum population ng isang HUC.

Hindi po, Angeles City can survive on its own without Clark, in fact, Clark Freeport Zone part of Angeles is just below 10%. Not sure about sa percentage ng Angeles and Mabalacat sa SM, i doubt they(SM) will even announce such thing. What I know po based on previous articles and on-going construction, SM Clark Annex will be built outside the fence of the parking lot and I think that outside that fence is already Mabalacat kasi its way too far na from 1st street and AFAIK, kay Boking nakipag deal ang SM sa pagpapatayo ng Annex nito.

Hi guys! Since RA 10164 provides for the conversion of Mabalacat into a component city, it still is under the Provincial Government of Pampanga in terms of bureaucratic hierarchy, financial allotment, and political involvement.

For it to become a Highly Urbanized City (HUC), Mabalacat must pass, as Mnemonick said, population and income requirements and go through another whole cycle of legislation in the lower and upper houses, be signed by the president, and later on be voted in plebiscite anew by the citizens of the city. Only then will it be autonomous from the province. :)

Hindi po, under pa rin sya sa Pampanga like San Fernando. Mga Highly Urbanized Cities (HUC) lang ang independent. Pasok na ang Mabalacat sa pagiging HUC pagdating sa income, sa population nalang, as of 2010, 215k palang ang population ng Mabalacat, sa pagkakaalam ko ay 250k dapat ang minimum population ng isang HUC.

For it to become a Highly Urbanized City (HUC), Mabalacat must pass, as Mnemonick said, population and income requirements and go through another whole cycle of legislation in the lower and upper houses, be signed by the president, and later on be voted in plebiscite anew by the citizens of the city. Only then will it be autonomous from the province. :)

Yun, may mag a-update na tungkol sa mga kaganapan sa Mabalacat pag bumalik na ko sa pagiging OFW :lol:, nice nice....

Napanood niyo ba ang Imbestigador ngayon?? Na-feature ang mga illegal open dumpsites sa Pampanga. Nakakahiya! Pero gayunpaman, I'm glad na na-feature ito, para mahiya ang mga local government units natin at ma-conscious.

Heto ang mga nasiwalat sa Imbestigador:

Brgy. Duquit, Mabalacat
Brgy. Balibago, Angeles
Brgy. Lara, San Fernando
Brgy. Sulipan, Apalit
Brgy. San Matias, Santo Tomas

Yung Santo Tomas, medyo maiintindihan mo pa eh. Fourth class municipality lang sila. Maybe wala silang enough budget para pondohan ang pag-eestablish ng MRF, at ipadala sa sanitary landfill ang basura.

Pero shame on the rest! Puro sila mga first-class pero meron pa ring dumpsites.

Hindi po, Angeles City can survive on its own without Clark, in fact, Clark Freeport Zone part of Angeles is just below 10%. Not sure about sa percentage ng Angeles and Mabalacat sa SM, i doubt they(SM) will even announce such thing. What I know po based on previous articles and on-going construction, SM Clark Annex will be built outside the fence of the parking lot and I think that outside that fence is already Mabalacat kasi its way too far na from 1st street and AFAIK, kay Boking nakipag deal ang SM sa pagpapatayo ng Annex nito. Then again, I don't have the Map of Mabalacat/Angeles (with Clark) so....

Again, the expansion of SM Clark will be an expansion of the current complex and not a new separate building accdg. to the management and the ongoing construction. Renders of the interior can be seen at one of the former entry pouts of the mall!

Mnemonick, is it d same thing na ang bumubuhay sa Angeles is Clark since Clark is still a part of Angeles City? I even heard 3/4 ng buong SM Clark (main & annex) is nasa Angeles since half lng ng proposed annex is Mabalacat.

Hi sanfernandino interesting question! Got me thinking haha

From how I see it, most of what Angeles City is today is largely due to its association with Clark ever since the place was still under American Air Force control, besides being the convenient center of both business and politics in the province during pivotal decades in the province's history.

For one, with the Americans' presence for a little less than 90 years, many industries, enterprises, and citizens from Culiat benefited a lot with the continuous spur of economy-bolstering activity for most of the 20th century. With it, cultures & sub-cultures, and many more of which its deviations are what we witness today (in the form of hospitality entertainment, etc), continue to partake, although at a much less density and intensity, in the Angeles local economy.

The trickle of benefits through the decades had mostly been to those at barangays conveniently beside the airbase's entrance, all presently sprawling with urbanization: Balibago, Malabanias, Anunas, and for Mabalacat then: Dau and Lakandula (which was actually formerly part of Angeles City known as New Balibago until its transfer to Mabalacat in the 1970s.

solll

July 21st, 2012, 05:19 PM

Besides what was already a tremendous boost in commerce in Clark Airbase, Angeles was already a growing economic center, specifically in the Poblacion (Santo Rosario), San Nicolas, and Pampang barangays with those capable of investing filling the 'kabayanan' of the city with numerous businesses. This, among others, such as providing linkages to the regional and provincial center of San Fernando from the northern and western towns, contributed to how Angeles is regarded now, heritage and culture-wise too.

Lastly, I also see a great deal of prosperity in the city today due to the political climate of decades back when the city still was under the provincial government, that (in my opinion) proved to be somewhat ultimately favorable. During the post World War II years from the late 1950s to the pre-Marcos years, Pampanga had either a Lazatin or a Nepomuceno at its helm. And due to this, a great deal of influence not only translated to the politicians themselves being incumbents from Angeles, but the city in general as well - which surely meant that fuinds during these times were, most often than not, definitely rightly funneled here, sans politicking.

All in all, I see the confluence of the American occupation of Clark, its already bustling economic potential, and political discursiveness as how Angeles City was and currently is, historicized vis a vis the present Freeport. :)

Now that it is a Highly Urbanized City with a diverse background, many factors can now be considered as new sources of growth besides Clark. Such is the growing Pulung Maragul, Pandan, Mining area as example; besides the renewal of modernizing taking hold in the Santo Cristo and Lourdes Northwest areas.

I think that render is the "connecting hall" of the Main Building to the Annex Building

Ana Datu, SM Clark assistant mall manager, said that the site development had been done and the new and additional parking lots are now ready for use by its growing clientele.

“We are now in the process of connecting the new expansion building with the main mall. It’s the reason why we have to temporarily close the Meeting place area and re-route traffic,” said Datu.

Actually, wala naman aberya dun. Puwede namang maging HUC ang capital ng isang province, kagaya ng Cebu City at Iloilo City.

Pero siguro, mas mainam na kung mag-e-HUC ang San Fernando, meron munang "rising star" sa ibang towns/cities na parang mag-a-act as capital ng Pampanga. Gising Mexico at Bacolor! :D

Actually, pag naging HUC ang SF, at naging independent na siya from the province, bukod sa mababawasan na ang income ng province, kailangan na rin nilang magbayad ng "rent" sa lahat ng provincial government office na nasa San Fernando dahil ituturing nang hindi na sakop ng Pampanga ang SF technically...

Kumbaga, nakikigamit na ang probinsiya ng Pampanga ng lupa ng SF kaya kailangan nila itong bayaran... Ganyan ang nangyari sa Rizal before with Pasig, and ang alam ko, ganyan din ang nangyayari sa Cebu City at Cebu...

Pero at least, yun lang naman ang magbabago... Magiging titular capital pa rin ng Pampanga ang SF and everything will be the same except if we go on to the technicalities... :)

Cityhood suffers low voters turn-out
By Reynaldo G. Navales

Saturday, July 21, 2012

MABALACAT --- Bad weather has affected the cityhood referendum in this town Saturday, with a low turn-out of voters.

Lawyer Emmanuel Ignacio, Commission on Elections (Comelec) Central Luzon officer in charge, projected that some 15 to 20 percent of the total registered voters of 85,000 are expected to participate in the exercise.

According to Ignacio, who is also a registered voter, a low turn-out is usually expected in a cityhood referendum or plebiscite, however, no untoward incidents were reported and that it was relatively peaceful.

Ignacio said Mabalacat, which is receiving P180 million from the internal revenue allotment (IRA) at present, will gain a lot once it is converted into a component city.

An additional of P300 to P400 million will add up to the IRA of town once it becomes Pampanga’s third city, Ignacio added.

Meanwhile, Mayor Marino “Boking” Morales, who also casted his vote at the Dau Elementary School thanked his constituents for participating and voting despite the inclement weather Saturday.

Morales said they are expecting about 30 percent voter turn-out in the referendum. He also stressed out that some of the priorities of his administration include education, health and livelihood.

Mabalacat College has 1900 students this school year and this figure will grow to more than 2000 next school year.

Anticipating the approval of the citizens to the cityhood, Morales said his first executive order on Monday will be the abolition of students’ tuition fee.

On health, Morales said that the Local Government will maintain at least five birthing stations and a hospital which will be built near the Mabalacat College.

According to him, this program is in line with United Nations Millennium Development Goals (UN MDGs) to reduce maternal and child mortality rates.

Morales also cited infrastructure projects like the concreting of all roads and that more projects will be implemented once the town becomes a city.

Konting pagpaparami na lang sa populasyon :lol: Porac has the biggest territory in Pampanga, massive lands, nature and ecotourism, extensive agriculture, and quarrying. Not to mention, Porac is technically also a town next to Clark. In fact, portions of Porac are included in the Clark Special Economic Zone (not Freeport Zone). Oh, and it has an SCTEx exit. It also helps that some barangays of Porac benefit from the economic spill from Angeles.

At ngayon, magkakaroon na ito ng Tertiary Education for the first time in its history (DHVTSU in Brgy. Pio).

Porac mayor highlights achievements in Soma
By Ian Ocampo Flora

Saturday, July 21, 2012

PORAC — Mayor Condralito dela Cruz highlighted the achievements of his administration during Thursday’s first-ever State of the Municipality Address (Soma) held at the Marisa Function Hall in Barangay Poblacion here.

According to Vice Mayor Dexter David, the event, attended by municipal and barangay government officials, sectoral representatives and residents of the town, aimed at reporting the people of the achievements that the Dela Cruz administration has accomplished halfway through its term.

Dela Cruz told Sun.Star Pampanga that chief of the achievements of his administration is the fulfillment of the promise to provide tertiary education to indigents here.

It could be remembered that the DHVTSU campus here is now being constructed in Barangay Pio and is now offering Bachelor of Science courses in Hotel and Restaurant Management, Industrial Technology, Information Technology and Technical Teacher Education.

Dela Cruz said his administration has facilitated the increase in the number of Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth) coverage, rehabilitation of the rural health unit here along with the lobbying for the funding and construction of major road projects and buildings in cooperation with the Provincial Government of Pampanga.

“These were accomplished through the support of the people, the unity within our administration and the support of Governor Lilia Pineda,” Dela Cruz said.

Dela Cruz said they also plan to widen the course offerings of the state university and increase attention of infrastructure projects and local and foreign investors and that the administration has seen to the arrival of investments from Ayala Land Corporation, Manila Bank, LLL Holdings and Fulcrum among others.

Dela Cruz added that there has been renewed attention into the manpower training program of the town to prepare local manpower for local and foreign investments.

I definitely agree with you on that. The much needed support for the development of CRK did not follow through. Moreover, I also think that the lack of or total inaction on the flooding at the 3rd and 4th district towns in the past 2 years when infrastructure for it was badly needed only made things worse as the provincial government can earmark only so much.

Angeles City to host Milo Marathon elim
By Joelyn G. Baluyut
Friday 20th of July 2012

ANGELES CITY, Pampanga, July 20 (PIA) -- Milo Marathon, the biggest running event in the country, will hold its elimination round in Angeles City on Sunday.

More than 6,000 runners will gather on the 22nd to compete in the 21k, 10k, 5k, and 3k categories said Rosever Pascua, Angeles City Sports Office (ACSO) head.

“The race will start and end at the main gate of the city hall in Barangay Maragul,” he explained.

Pascua said that “proceeds from the event will be used to buy additional sports equipment for teams who will compete and represent Angeles City in 2013’s Central Luzon Regional Athletic Association (CLRAA) and to buy tree seedlings as part of the city government’s One Million Tree project.”

Milo organizers had already distributed 500 pairs of brand new rubber shoes to less fortunate students of several elementary schools that include Belen Homesite, Cutud, Teodoro Tinio, Abelardo Tinio, and Pulungbulu, Pascua added.

For every runner who joins the Milo Marathon, a portion of the registration fee will be allotted to the advocacy. The fund raised will be used to produce running shoes that will be donated to different public schools selected by the Department of Education (DepEd) in the areas where the 36th National Milo Marathon will be held.

The Marathon is an annual event open to amateur and professional runners. It started in 1974 as a single marathon race in Metro Manila attended by 747 participants.

It is now considered as to be the biggest, longest, grandest national running event in the country attracting more than hundreds of thousands of runners across the country as it aims to inspire and equip underprivileged school children to excel in sports and in life by providing them a pair of shoes.

Yup tama!! Makuntento n lng tayo kahit SM sn fernando pa cguro pinakamaliit na SM mall. Pero i wish sa iba location na lng nila tinayo na malawak para may opportunity na magexpand gaya ng sa SM pampanga & SM clark. Since andyan na yan, ala ng chance lumaki pa SM Sn Fernando :-(

im sure sa future expansion ng sm mglalagay ang 3rd SM City sa SF Mcarthur hiway madami malawak na area dun at take not wala pa sm city sa pampanga na nsa mcarthur meron sa mblacat pero sm hypermarket siya. sino kaya mauuna mgkaroon ng sm city sa mcarthur?

I think SM City Tarlac is along McArthur Hiway.

Puwede ang SM Angeles sa kahit alin dito:

1) huge vacant lots in Brgy. Cutcut/Santo Rosario... that is, kung papayagan ng mga Nepomuceno

2) along McArthur Hiway, malapit sa La Pieta cemetery / PNR way

3) huge vacant lot sa Brgy. Pandan, malapit sa Eastbound Terminal... panapat sa Marquee.

4) along Friendship Hi-way, malapit sa Villa Leoncia.

Pinaka-gusto ko sa #1 o #2

Sayang nga, akala ko yung lote na kinuha ng Super 8 Mall, akala ko SM dati ang magtatayo dun.
