Since this forum has talked about beautification, greening of Cebu, etc. A lot of forumers has also expressed their opinions on what's best for Cebu, etc.

Can you find one good spot/location (small area lang siguro to begin with) in Cebu City where SSC Cebu forumers can do the following?

1. Improve/Beautify the landscape.
2. Improve/Beautify the sidewalk.
3. Encourage Cebuanos to partake in the improvement/beautification work.
4. Make it a place/spot for Cebuanos to enjoy and be proud of.

Challenge to SSC Cebu forumers who are living outside of Cebu/Philippines to do the following:

1. Find financial sponsors for the project(s)
2. Promote Cebu City to your respective cities

I believe the active members of SSC Cebu forumers will take the challenge!

Count me in for financial commitment SSC Cebu. And why don't we start by covering/fixing those concrete bases of the lamp posts at Osmena blvd.
Time to be proactive guys and be the envy of SSC Philippines.

ill try to ask my sister if she can help... she is into green urbanism lately as a member of FPE (Fed for Phil. Environment), and her projects ryt now are with the cebu watershed management... she also teaches green architecture sa CAFA... bag.o rxad to cla nagkita ni sir paul sa convention sa manila regarding green urbanism. :)

wow! nice project. do you think it's possible to clean up that canal/estero beside gaisano main?

That location had been cleaned resently. The problem is the canal is too small since the buildings along the area are constructed at the edge of the river. :nuts: :ohno:

The DPS is doing that job. IF anybody want to get the city attention, please contact this site. They constantly monitor this site. :okay:

pina NY bah ;)

nya sunod ilang target kay barrio luz para ppol can all stay in a vertical condo nya ang CBD kay mu occupy anang lot :D also beside I.T. park the one near the link :)

Hopefully mapareho sa NYC housing. You cannot tell if its the housing area especially the new locations and buildings developement. :okay: There is a catch in the NYC housing, if you earn more than $70K/year you are given notice of about 6 months for eviction because you are not considered poor but in a middle income bracket category. It is a bit hard to cheat the housing authority since they will ask a copy of your income tax return, you payroll copy of your job and will match up your income in your Federal and State income taxes. They is a contract signed about the probation in living in the housing. Free electricity, water, heating and gas(cooking). There is a waiting list of over a year.

Thanks for initiating this, Sir. Agree on December as the best time to do this activity. Hoping our SSC-Cebu comrades in Cebu can do a meeting regarding this.

That would be great if our SSC-Cebu comrades can come up with an informal meeting to discuss an appropriate project that everyone will participate. Hopefully, it'll be an enjoyable fun project that our fellow forumers will choose. For those of us who are not Cebu, perhaps we can share by sponsoring food and drinks for the meeting as a start. What do you guys think?

I really won't recommend CNT Lechon. Their lechon is bland and does not taste good. I wonder why a lot of tourists buy their lechon there especially here in Guadalupe. Maybe because of the packaging and marketing.

Anyway, the best lechon I've tasted so far are those from Alejos and/or Ayers.

I think Alejos is located in Banawa while Ayers has a stall at the i1 building in Asiatown IT Park.

sakto ka ani bai the best lechon jud and Alejos lami kaayo bisan wala pa mag open ilang tindahan naglinya na ang mga taw na mamalit hehehe pero sa Ayers tagam jud ko sa ilang customer service kay kani ra silay naninda ug lechon na dili maka pili ang mamalit kung asa na part sa lechon imong gusto hehehe mao ni akong na experience sa ilang I2 na stall sa IT park wala na jud ko mo palit sa ilang lechon bisan ug maglaway ko :lol:

Molobolo Spring in Tuburan is featured inYahoo! (http://ph.news.yahoo.com/blogs/cebukini/molobolo-spring-affordable-getaway-tuburan-052406616.html)
In the town of Tuburan, which is some 96 kilometers from Cebu City, the Molobolo Spring has been attracting tourists and slowly becoming a favorite hangout place for residents and visitors alike.

The discovery of the cold spring has changed this once quiet municipality in the northern part of Cebu.
Tuburan's name comes from the Visayan word "tubod," which means spring of water. It is no wonder then that Molobolo Spring is one of the town's natural gifts.

@joch, magpa squatters2x na lang kaha ta aron maapil ana nila diha? Hehehehe

Food for thought of the day:
The oppressor no longer acts directly and with his own powers upon his victim. No, our conscience has become too sensitive for that. The tyrant and his victim are still present, but there is an intermediate person between them, which is the Government - that is, the Law itself. What can be better calculated to silence our scruples, and, which is perhaps better appreciated, to overcome all resistance?

We all therefore, put in our claim, under some pretext or other, and apply to Government. We say to it, " I am dissatisfied at the proportion between my labor and my enjoyments. I should like, for the sake of restoring the desired equilibrium, to take a part of the possessions of others. But this would be dangerous.

Could not you facilitate the thing for me?
Could you not find me a good place? or check the industry of my competitors? or, perhaps,
lend me gratuitously some capital which, you may take from its possessor? Could you not bring up my children at the public expense? or grant me some prizes? or secure me a competence when I have attained my fiftieth year?

By this mean I shall gain my end with an easy conscience, for the law will have acted for me, and I shall have all the advantages of plunder, without its risk or its disgrace!" - excerpts from Government, by Frederic Bastiat (http://bastiat.org/en/government.html)

This place is the favorite among locals in tuburan and asturias and even as far as cebu city due to availability of flowing fresh water and clear sea water beside it....cottages are available for rent and entrance fee is very minimal, the last time I visited molobolo entrance fee is only 5 pesos and negotiable kung daghan.

A.. jeepney stop sign perhaps

This why a single Mass Transit cannot replace small Jeepneys serving small coastal city roads.
Jeepneys is like a shared taxi ride.
24/7, low fare, pickups near home and drops near work/job vice versa.
A uniquely Filipino invention.

Five Cebu projects lobbied for 2012 budget (http://cdn.ph/news_details.php?id=11533)

FIVE major infrastructure projects for Cebu were submitted to the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) central office for inclusion in next year’s 2012 national budget.

The projects were part of the 10 high impact projects identified by the Partnership for Better Infrastructure (PBI) Project of the Cebu Business Club.

The presentation was made during the 2nd Cebu Local Governance & Development Forum at Marco Polo Hotel.

Among the five projects were the improvement and expansion of junctions of Archbishop Reyes, Salinas Drive, J. Luna and Cuenco Avenues and the Mactan Circumferential Road.
Also included were the UN Avenue flyover in Mandaue City, the Cebu North Coastal Road and the Cebu City Circumferential Road.

Based on the presentation by PBI project team leader Ronilo Balbieran, only two of the five projects were allocated funding from the DPWH central office.

About P300 million were allocated for the expansion of junctions of Archbishop Reyes, Salinas Drive, J. Luna and Cuenco Avenues and another P300 million was set aside for the Mactan Circumferential Road.

The budget for the Cebu City Circumferential Road has yet to be included as a line item in the DPWH-7 fund.

The forum was participated by Cebu business leaders, local officials from the League of the Municipalities of the Philippines (LMP) Cebu Chapter and students from the University of San Carlos (USC) Political Science Department.

The PBI is Cebu Business Club’s (CBC) new initiative in the government’s call for Private-Public Partnership.

It is aimed at broadening participation in the allocation and implementation of infrastructure investments to support Cebu’s economic development and poverty reduction.

The Cebu Business Club signed an agreement with various stakeholders to launch the PBI last May.

The signatories consist of the Cebu, Mandaue, and Mactan Chambers of Commerce and Industry, the Filipino-Chinese, American, Canadian and European Chamber of Commerce, Cebu Leads Foundation, Ramon Aboitiz Foundation, Hotel, Resort and Restaurant Association of Cebu, Chamber of Real Estate and Builders’ Association and the Step Up Young Entrepreneurs’ Association.

The recent Global Competitiveness Report ranked the Philippines 113th in terms of overall state of infrastructure.

The 2011 Local Government Survey also identified infrastructure as the second important local problem in the country next to economy.

Although most of these are considered low income homes in Italy, i wish we could adopt the same idea to our slums in Cebu, or even to future government housing. If the government can't think of relocating people living in the slums, maybe they could just give it a face lift. It would certainly paint a more vibrant picture in our city. :)

...talking about Metro's new supermarket set-up (stand alone store)....as per news article quoted above, they now have 2 different set-ups....one is Metro Hi-Per which I think to compete with SM Hypermarket and the other one is Metro Market which is competing with SM Savemore....Maasin, Leyte has the 1st Metro Hiper while Naga City, Cebu has the 1st Metro Market....perhaps, that rumored Metro supermarket fronting U/C Shopwise in Mambaling will be a Metro Hi-Per :okay:

Metro Hi-Per (Maasin)

Diri sa among gamay nga probinsiya sa Southern Leyte duha ka Gaisano group of companies ang nag-open diri ang Metro Hiper in Maasin og Gaisano Capital in Sogod and we are expecting a second Prince Supermarket diri. Salamat kaayo sa mga negosyanteng Cebuano nga nagbobo og pohonan sa among lugar. Hinaot unta nga daghan pang taga Cebu nga mamohonan diri.:cheers:

TRAILER ALERTS
THE UNDEAD RETURN TO THE PHILIPPINES IN DI INGON NATO (NOT LIKE US)
by Todd Brown, October 29, 2011 2:31 PM

There is a new wave of talent emerging in the Philippines, a wave of film rising up away from the studios and embracing new directors, new genres, and new approaches to more familiar material. A focal point for the movement appears to be the Cinema One originals series - multiple titles from this year's edition have already been featured on Twitch - and this year Cinema One gets horrific with Di Ingon Nato (Not Like Us).

just to share some info, latest list (top 10) of the world's most livable cities. it's quite difficult for cebu to be part of this list, but not impossible.

1. Melbourne, Australia
2. Vienna, Austria
3. Vancouver, Canada
4. Toronto, Canada
5. Calgary, Canada
6. Sydney, Australia
7. Helsinki, Finland
8. Perth, Australia
9. Adelaide, Australia
10. Auckland, New Zealand

Let say: Lowest is $25k/annum Cebu's Cost-of-Living and English as second language, tropical beaches and 99% western like style... Cebu is a WINNER.
As far as the weather and calamities, Cebu is blessed without that..... Cebu is not Manila's calamities.
Political turmoils 'cause of strong political related families....politics is fun...
Down South they need foreign aid, so they keep the trouble going.
Up North Imelda and Marcoses are still in politics... while Cebu keeps subsidizizing
with tax collections above and beyond expectations...

Thank you! :)

I'm originally from Iligan City, and for a very long time, was staying/living in Manila coz it's where my job was. My job required that I hop from one country to the other, that's why I am somewhat familiar with Asian countries. My previous experiences abroad enabled me to differentiate cultural and religious differences (I'm Christian), as well as, the physical set-ups of places and structures within their respective territories.

Cebu is quite a unique Philippine city. It's huge, but developed and well-maintained. It provides almost everything that M.Manila does, in a much comfortable way -- lesser traffic, lesser pollution, lesser people, etc.. And, it's probably the only city in the country that I've been to so far where there are clean sidewalks everywhere to walk on, in case you don't want to drive / ride on jeepneys.

I'd rate Cebu the BEST city in the Philippines. But I hope it would get away from the decongestion that the city is gradually experiencing now. In that way, it would stay that way for the next generation to enjoy.

Cebu City is really ready to graduate in terms of the density of its skyline but the quest for a livable City is far from over.

The street level still needs much more attention. Sidewalks all around the city are either too narrow, too obstructed (vendors and such) or the drainage along them needs to be improved.

To have an example, I'll point out to Archbishop Reyes Avenue since it is the road nearest to home. There, the road still has these potholes on them and I can't just laugh at every time I bump my head on the ceiling whenever the PUJ runs through one of them. Another one would be the drainage along the road. It is rather inappropriate to flatten the supposedly sloping canal along the edges of the street. Well, usually, floodwater goes from the middle of the street to these little waterways and into the drain but the opposite just happens. Instead of the water going from center to the sides, it just spreads all over the road as no waterway has enough angle from the road to get the water in them drain. Its really a problem especially when it rains hard and strong.

These could be simple problems but still equally important if we are to make Cebu better in its own right. This will be the test to the political will of all the leaders in Cebu. From both the Mayor and his cabinet to the City Council. If they can set aside their personal/political conflicts for the betterment of Cebu and the Cebuanos. If they can overcome such, then praise the Lord we have such brilliant officials. And it suffices the budget for next year, enough to cover all roads and perhaps even get rid of those pesky spaghetti wires across the city and improve the over-all street level. This is aside from the need for maintenance of already built infrastructure, government services and the facilities of public institutions like CCMC. :)

I dunno but just would like to know what are your thoughts regarding the beautification project. IMO, it seems that it doesn't come in unison. previously from Capitol to Fuente, we have seen that there are portions that looks neat and beautifully done while there are others that looks ugly and haphazardly done. This time around from Fuente to Downtown, there are sections that are all tiled up while there are portions that are not tiled up and the plant boxes are not the same as to the other half of Osmena Blvd.

but I still hope that this project will turn out really GREAT! :okay:

lets ponder to these issues coming from foreign observers about cebu.

Economist: Cebu lacks infra to maximize tourism potential
By Ehda M. Dagooc (The Freeman) Updated November 01, 2011 12:00 AM Comments (0)

CEBU, Philippines - While Cebu is undoubtedly attractive as a tourism destination for both local and international travelers, it has to immediately address the lack of proper infrastructure to maximize its tourism potential.

This is a call for the government and the private sector prime movers in Cebu by the country’s known economist Jonas Ravelas, in a recent economic briefing organized by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce-Cebu.

Ravelas, who is also the first vice-president and chief market strategist of Banco de Oro Universal Bank, said a proper infrastructure roadmap should be implemented immediately specifically in Cebu, as tourism trade here is on the upswing.

If Cebu will miss this opportunity of catching up with its growth, it may lose its tourism potential to other destinations in the Philippines, or in Asia.

According to Ravelas, with the present infrastructure set-up of Cebu, it cannot even accommodate one-million tourist arrivals at the same time. He mentioned the need to expand the airport facilities, and services.

“I don’t think we have the right infrastructure,” said Ravelas referring to the country’s infrastructure as a whole.

Nationally, he said tourism direction is even loose, saying the Philippines, despite its huge potential to capture the multi-billion-dollar market in tourism sector, “we have no proper tourism direction.”

Cebu, because of its active private and government stakeholders, should initiate the work to lead in tourism development, specifically in fixing the infrastructure side.

Earlier, Honorary Russian Consul in Cebu Armi Lopez Garcia said that Cebu should prepare for the influx of Russian tourists, as the province is gaining popularity among wealthy Russian travelers, however, Cebu should trail blaze in fixing some problems that may discouraged the interest of Russian visitors.

Aside from addressing the safety, cleanliness and infrastructure,Garcia emphasized the need for Cebu LGUs to lead the implementation of “empowering” the community as “guardians of tourism” through constant education and awareness.

Likewise, United Kingdom (UK) consul in Cebu Moya Jackson magnified Cebu’s deteriorating “safety” to tourists system, saying one of the most important come-ons especially to for a destination is to address the security of tourists in a destination.

“Safety—is impossible in Cebu. Enough has been said about Cebu—the good things,” Jackson said adding that if safety issue can’t be addressed immediately, this will eventually discouraged tourists to come to Cebu.

However, although these diplomats pointed their fingers to the “concerned agencies” in the government to fix these pitfalls of Cebu tourism, both Jackson and Garcia agreed that Cebu is still the safest place in the Philippines.

While Cebu’s wet-markets especially the legendary “Carbon Market” is one of the most desired places tourists’ like to go, to explore the “culture” of Cebu, Jackson said safety and cleanliness in Carbon Market should be implemented. (FREEMAN)

I dunno but just would like to know what are your thoughts regarding the beautification project. IMO, it seems that it doesn't come in unison. previously from Capitol to Fuente, we have seen that there are portions that looks neat and beautifully done while there are others that looks ugly and haphazardly done. This time around from Fuente to Downtown, there are sections that are all tiled up while there are portions that are not tiled up and the plant boxes are not the same as to the other half of Osmena Blvd.

but I still hope that this project will turn out really GREAT! :okay:

nag ka anam na ug kanindot oi. bisan lain2x ug style ang iyang bricks basta limyo lang payts na kaayo na oi. labi na gyud kon maabot gyud nga walkable hangtud sa plaza ug fort san pedro. ug wala pay cooperation si mayor rama ug gov gwen ug sa ilang mga benefactors dili na maingon ana ang jones avenue karon. so nindot gyud nga mag hoy2x ang local leaders dili mag dumot2x ug magpalabaw ug magsige lang ug himantay sa uban kay politica lang ilang gitan-aw sa para sa ilang kaugalingon.

i think it was mentioned before that they are doing away with the plant boxes for phase 2.

“But in the Phase 2, the lampposts stays in the middle since from Sanciangko Street, the Capitol view is blocked by skywalks anyway plus there’s the Fuente Osmeña.”
In Phase 2, there will be no plant boxes along the road."

kanang atbang sa Harrison park bro, wanay mahimo ang Cebu City government kung ang ilang gipili or ilang naganahan nga type of sidewalk kay ang pareha sa BDO kay same sa BDO, ila sad nang gi angkon og gasto.

Well, for me it's just but natural to expect such 'mishaps' especially if it is the 'Government' that does the work. Believe it or not, the government is a lousy worker. If not late then some projects encounter problems and inconsistencies with the original plan. That is one reason why I would rather have been amazed if it were the private sector that does this project. It would've been better and those lamp posts won't have that rather 'too long' base and the actual walkway would've been 'real' bricks and the design of the entire beautification would be 'American' rather than 'Spanish' influenced knowing that Osmena Blvd. was once named 'Jones Avenue' and was built during the American era. It would have made Cebu a good blend of modern, primitive, hispanic and pan-american architecture. :)

Anyways, it's still good to know that this projects is going fast. :cheers:

That's what I have in mind IMO.

Let say: Lowest is $25k/annum Cebu's Cost-of-Living and English as second language, tropical beaches and 99% western like style... Cebu is a WINNER.
As far as the weather and calamities, Cebu is blessed without that..... Cebu is not Manila's calamities.
Political turmoils 'cause of strong political related families....politics is fun...
Down South they need foreign aid, so they keep the trouble going.
Up North Imelda and Marcoses are still in politics... while Cebu keeps subsidizizing
with tax collections above and beyond expectations...

.

I don't think that list is just about the cost of living though. Some of the more important factors such as safety, healthcare, education, sanitation, recreational parks, transportation, etc... Cebu is just not up to par. In fact, I believe cost of living is actually factored out of that survey.

As much as I love Cebu as the next Cebuano, it would be prudent of us to view Cebu in an honest manner. Don't get me wrong, I love Cebu but it is just nowhere near any of these cities in the top 10. I've been to 4 of those cities in the top 10 and many more in the top 20. Melbourne, Vancouver, Sydney and Auckland. Each one of them provide free high quality education and healthcare. Have wonderful parks, excellent road infrastructures and sanitation. Etc.

My dream is for Cebu to have these in the not so distant future. And it is making excellent progress towards it, which is why I don't want us to forget all the negative things about Cebu. I've already heard all the good things about Cebu, in fact, ironically, out of all the cities I've been to, Cebu is still my number one best city.

that's more than a digital clock than a billboard. If that's the order by the government, so why are thos electronic billboards were given permits to operate in Juan Luna corner Cardinal Rosales or in SM City Cebu billboard...

sad to say, it's the private sector, not the government. So you're just saying that those active privates sectors are lousy? LoL. Bali nuon, for me, they're to active para ankonon nang beautification bisag dili nang ilang obligasyon.

Therefore, your observation is wrong coz this is not the project of the government reason nganong napatuman dayon several months pa lang sa plano kay ang private sector man ang nagpasi-ugda. Asa ma'y mishap imong pasabot? Nga gi tuyo mana nga ang mo angkon og gasto nga establishment, depende ra nila unsa ilang pili-on kay hilas nasd kaayo paminawn nga mo tabang na ang business establishments, dili pa gyud tugtan sa gusto nilang design nga although different design but still within the theme...

Wolfranz

November 1st, 2011, 02:55 PM

^^It's a private sector pro bono work, but not at its best. We could not say it's the worst because makita man pud ang improvement anyhow.

About the business establishments having to choose their own variation of the theme: Gi-meet gud na sila. They should've arrived at a consensus on what's the most practical and most cost-efficient design aesthetic for the sidewalk pavements. Coz for me, uniformity of the pavement design is important. Well, that's just my opinion from a design perspective.

City eyes condo at Citicenter lot
CEBU, Philippines - If plans do not miscarry, City Hall employees and several urban poor families in Cebu City will soon get a chance to live at the heart of the city.

This as a high-rise condominium is set to be built at the lot now occupied by the Citicenter Commercial Complex at corner Junquera and Sanciangko Sts., Barangay Kamagayan.

The plan is to build a structure that can accommodate 1,000 individual housing units.

Division for the Welfare of the Urban Poor Chief Collin Rossell said P100 million is pegged to fund this project as part of the city’s 2012 budget.

Then we asked someone on the site (Mandarin Hotel lot) and pointed to us that the lot (where Grand Cenia is now standing) is the one with proposed 25 storey structure. So nalibog na mi ato sa thread kung asa gyud nga lot tukoron coz we don't know yet that there's another 25 storey proposed condotel which is now the Grand Cenia.

10 storeys ra diay. abi nako 50 :D

sakto sab na oi. low cost housing project gud na. dili lalim ang pag maintain anang 50 storey building. basin anha ra sa maintenance fee patya ang mga mamuyo. ug dili na ka afford mahimong ghetto area na sa mga homeless.

kana unta mga squatters sa srp, himuan nalang unta na sila ug mga sturdy stilt condos with concrete foundation nga dili mabungkag ting bagyo nga taas ang tubig ug kusog ang bawod. bisan ug tag 5 storey pa para dili pud na eyesore unya sa srp kon ma fully develop na. im sure naay makahatag ug nindot ug safe nga design for that area. ug mahitabo na dili na gyud kaayo 3rd world tan-awon nang mga squatters dinha luyo sa carbon market. social 3rd world na :lol::lol::lol:

How do we get to Liloan Lighthouse from Cebu City? Is Ceres has a route to Liloan? Thanks! :)^^ IMHO, if you have a group it might be less complicated and hassle free if you guys contract a taxi or van or jeepney from your hotel straight to the lighthouse. Then you can take the lesser traffic route along the reclaimed land behind SM Mabolo thru Mandaue & that new highway connecting Paknaan, Mandaue to Liloan across the mangrove lake passing near St. Claire monastery and the Amara.

Coz it might be complicated if you take public transport along the main highway (traffic on that main route can be quite taxing and would eat up into your vacation time), I myself cannot stand the traffic from Hiway Seno to Metro Gaisano up to Consolacion Market... then you gotta alight somewhere near the old Liloan church and take a tricycle; again if you're a group you'll be needing a mini fleet of tricycles. Haggling with the drivers in tagalog can be costly. And that is only one way. I've never actually taken public transport for a long time but I can still see them so I dunno about specific details regarding fares.

Now coming back might even be more complicated coz there might not be a steady supply of tricycles available. Then the haggling thing again. And also the citybound jeepneys, what if these are all full or it starts to rain? At least with the hotel, your concierge can do the talking for you and your trip back and forth is all set with minimum time wasted.

DPWH Flyovers on hold until master plan is set

Public Works Secretary Rogelio Singson has put on hold the construction of two flyovers in Cebu City pending the completion of a master plan for the city.

Singson said he decided to order the suspension of the projects after meeting with leaders of civil society groups from Cebu.

However, he said the Department of Public Works and Highways would proceed with widening the intersections on streets where the flyovers were supposed to be built.

New thread na..weeee..

Just an inquiry guys. We have been very focused on what the bricks would look like and the lamp posts on the beautification of Osmena Blvd. How are the spaghetti wires? Are they underground now? I think it is one of the most important aspect of the beautification. I observed na sa some parts of new zealand na overhanging ang electric wires, murag Pinas ang feeling..then kung underground, 1st world jud ug feeling.
