HOMEGROWN developer Cebu Landmasters Inc. is earmarking P3 billion for capital expenditures starting this year, for the development of three residential projects in Cebu under a joint venture with RDAK Transport Equipment Inc.

Cebu Landmasters Inc. president and chief executive officer Jose Soberano III said the programmed capex will stretch until 2014.

The company broke ground last Saturday on its first residential project, Midori Plains, in partnership with RDAK.

The project, which sits on eight hectares in Tungkop, Minglanilla, will house an initial 387 residential units with prices ranging from P1.6 million to P3.2 million.

Average lot area is 120 square meters.

Midori in Japanese term means “green.” Soberano described the project as an Asian-inspired, Zen-living development.

“The partnership of this project came in when I learned that RDAK and Cebu Landmasters are both eyeing the same property in Minglanilla. So we decided to work on the project together rather than compete with each other,” Soberano said, adding that this project is RDAK’s first venture in Cebu’s thriving real estate industry.

Branching out

RDAK’s core business is in the transportation and heavy equipment industry, which includes manufacturing and selling of several types of heavy, light and medium transport vehicles.

Ricarido Delfin Abellana King, founder and owner of RDAK Transport Equipment Inc., said their venture into property development signifies their optimism and confidence in Cebu’s real estate industry.

The two companies will pour in P500 million to develop Midori Plains, which will have nine house designs intended for the middle-class market. The firm also allotted some 50 lot-only units.

Midori Plains land development is expected to be completed within one year.

Among the amenities are Club Chi, which features a swimming pool, open-air pool cabanas, function hall and entertainment rooms; and a gazebo.

Aside from Midori Plains, Cebu Landmasters and RDAK are also set to develop two condominium buildings on A.S. Fortuna in Banilad and on Salinas Ext. in Cebu City.

According to Soberano, the A.S Fortuna project will have two 12-storey condominium buildings with 198 units each. This condo project is being pitched to the middle-class market, such as young professionals, with unit prices ranging from P1.3 million to P1.6 million.

The Salinas project, on the other hand, will have seven mid-rise condominium buildings with a total of 1,200 condo units. This project is programmed for a three-year development.

According to Soberano, the low interest rate, strong domestic liquidity, huge housing backlog and strong inflows of remittances prompted them to be aggressive in building property projects in Cebu.

Familiarity

Cebu, he said, has always been a hub for work and education.

He added local players like him are not threatened by the coming of big players in Cebu, as the province records a huge housing backlog.

“They may have dominance in certain markets but local developers here have a good head start in the real estate environment because of our familiarity with local conditions,” he said.

His company, for instance, is eyeing the middle market who can afford to acquire houses with prices ranging from P1.5 million to P3 million.

Cebu Landmasters’ first residential project is San Jose Maria Village in Balamban in 2003. Since then, he brought the brand to different areas such as Minglanilla in 2007, Toledo in 2009, and Talisay in 2010.

The 17-storey company made its first foray into vertical development with the high-rise condominium project called Asia Premier Residences at the Cebu I.T. Park (formerly Asiatown I.T. Park). This was followed by the construction of the 18-storey residential condo the Baseline Residences along Juana Osmeña St. last year.

Soberano said there are more residential subdivisions being eyed by the firm in Tagbilaran, Cagayan de Oro, and Ilo-ilo cities, as part of their positioning to become a significant community developer in the Visayas and Mindanao.

^^ Renovations are still going on? What are they doing to the finger piers? Thickening it further perhaps? what of the foundations? Aren't those weak already? hmmmn.

They are repairing damaged grouting and rebars exposed to the elements when concrete peeled-off(see the temporary scaffolding around one of the pier heads), Hope the landing's concrete haven't de-bonded from the inner rebars. It's queer to see the port piers not provided with rubber fenders!

Barangay Babag, a mountain barangay in southern Cebu City, is literally blooming these days. It’s another peak season for flower farms here with the approach of Valentine’s Day. Be warned, however, that not all flowers are suitable as gifts for that special day. Apparently, white roses don’t mean purity of intention. It actually means “fleeting beauty” on the part of the receiver. A yellow rose, meanwhile, indicates a giver’s “decreasing love.” If these symbolisms really matter to you, you might want to check out this website to see which flowers to avoid on Feb.14.

"Butanding-watching in Oslob was cancelled since Friday. Strange animal behavior predicts major seismic event. Aquatic creatures behave in unusual ways just before an earthquake strikes. Reason daw sa pagkawala sa mga butanding. It was a sign."

^^i agree..3 days na wa nagpakita ang mga butandin

hmmm its a good indication really that we can after all predict the coming of an earthquake.. :D

epicenter was at the coast of Tayasan, Negros Oriental

Niabot na daw ang tubig sa may pasil area...

Hope cebu is okay.... Ingat lang kayo dyan..

is it true ang tubig naa na sa colon?? can someone verify, kay ang mga taw diri sa mango nagkagubot unya wa pa jud signal sa sun

Please guys...no reports of tsunami yet...please keep calm and be wary of our posts that might get misunderstood

nag-panic kaayo ang mga taga-pasil kay ilang mga-tanod gipa-disperse para ipa-evacuate ang naa duol sa tubig kay basin musaka daw ang tubig...traffic diri sa Mambaling-Pasil kay mga taw naa sa dalan nagdinaganay.

Guys, I hope you are all safe there. I'm relieved that no reports of major damage nor injured from this strong earthquake. It shows that our Building Code is working (Structural engineers, etc. ).

nagkagubot sad mga tao sa facebook...ila mga status kay trafiic daw sa syudad kay mga tao nagdinaganay na. diri sad sa amua dapit labangon mga tao nagdinaganay ang mga sakyanan sigeg busina... huna-huna na gyud sa mga tao nga basta earthquake, tsunami dayun

naa daw namatay bata tungod sa stampede sa downtown..tinuod?

Ok. False alarm to. Don't believe it. But then again, I can't help but laugh kay ang mga nawng sa tawo. hahaha!

LOL face au. :D :D :D

^^ I guess I understand their reaction. People may not be used to it. The earthquake was strong enough to jolt people. But the rumours of waters rising is not true at all.

Be calm and be alert still.

imposible man pud di ba kay ang epicenter naa sa western cebu ug kanang carbon ug colon is facing the eastern part of cebu..so layo ra..

^^atleast they are doing something para ma safe sila... what if kuno be kung tinuod.. mokatawa paba ka sa ilang face?!!

Ok. False alarm to. Don't believe it. But then again, I can't help but laugh kay ang mga nawng sa tawo. hahaha!

LOL face au. :D :D :D

really LOL face jud? what if natinuod? LOL face jud? please be sensitive enough. di tanan tawo bright parehas nimo. :ohno:

this was the strongest earthquake i've ever experienced. even my very very old lola agreed. normal ra na ang reaction sa mga tawo labi pa sugnogan og mga false news sa uban.

The tense situation of some people in Metro Cebu and some other areas in Visayas proceeding the strong earthquake regarding tsunami I somehow understand. However, hysteria over a false alarm OR misinterpretation of TSUNAMI ALERT expresses the need to educate the people once more of earthquake and tsunami alert. PHIVOLCS, CHED, DepED, NDRRMC and LGUs, lets do our work in educating people about RIGHT INFORMATION!

And I guess most Sugbuanons of this generation haven't felt such strong earthquake in their recent memory to happen in Cebu.

sakto! panagsa ra kaayu na sa Cebu maka experience og linog inato kakusog so mao inana ang reaction sa mga tao

makalipong man diay ning linog sa... :lol:

kusuga sa earthquake ganina! ga-bawg bawg gud ang floor sa amo klasroom! suspended klase sa UP kay gcheck ang building for cracks XD

lisud kaau ang sakay sa jeep ug taxi.nagdinaganay ang ubang tawo kay ang tubig kuno nisaka na. nairita ko nga naluoy sa ubang tawo. ang koreana tawn luoy kaau naputol ang tsinelas nya purting dagan. kabuang jud aning ubang tawo oi

may gani galingkod ko ato, kung gatindog pa ko ato galinog, matumba siguro ko...hehe

di jud ko katuo magnitude 6.9 na to o sa epicenter lang na unya diri sa cebu magnitude 6 or 5 na lang...kay feeling nako kanang 6.9 makalupad na na ug taw..hehe

Those of you who are posting here hearsays nga gikan ra sad sa mga sulti sulti are not doing a service.. you contribute in the panic..

Post the pictures here if tinood.. ayaw mo sige pakatay sa istorya which is FALSE!!!!

mao tawn ning koreana nga naputlan ug tsinelas.purting dagan.gitagaan nalag tsinelas sa hilltop hotel.kaluoy tawn:ohno:

Sendong and this earthquake have something in common. People in these areas were caught off-guard as these calamities are a rare occurrence. Lots of people died after Sendong, and lots of people panicked after the earthquake. I heard people were literally running for their lives but I couldn't blame them. Wouldn't you be swayed if you'll see a mob running like crazy? Some people are really heartless, taking advantage of the gullible minds of those who are just weary of their safety. The government should continue with its information drive on disaster awareness and preparedness. That way, everyone will be awakened by what's really happening around and would know how to react to every situation. As a citizen, we should also be responsible in verifying information before we spread them.

PANIC IN CEBU

may gani galingkod ko ato, kung gatindog pa ko ato galinog, matumba siguro ko...hehe

di jud ko katuo magnitude 6.9 na to o sa epicenter lang na unya diri sa cebu magnitude 6 or 5 na lang...kay feeling nako kanang 6.9 makalupad na na ug taw..hehe

the "MAGNITUDE" is 6.9

the "INTENSITY" naman differs on the distance and geography of nearby areas...so even if 6.9 lang ang magnitude pero extensive ang damage sa area, the intensity could be qualified as high as VII or VIII or even IX

Insensitive lad.. tsk tsk tsk.. i guess he should be reprimanded. Some verbal admonishing coming from the administrators of this forum.

If you cant help but laugh then so be it. But publicly declaring it is not of good taste. Sorry dong pero naguol kong nagbasa sa imong reaction.

Ayala Malls @ayalacentercebu

The mall remains to be in normal operations, although early closure of the mall is announced at 7pm today and some shops have closed early to allow employees to go home to their families

Ayala Malls @ayalacentercebu

Cebu Holdings, Inc. (CHI) managed buildings, as well as most buildings within its properties (Cebu Business Park and Cebu I.T. Park) were evacuated after the 6.8 magnitude earthquake.

"We evacuated our buildings and did initial building assessments before people were allowed reentry," Engr. Elson Homez, head for property management said. "So far we have not received information of damages or injury to personnel."

Joy Polloso, general manager of Ayala Center Cebu, also confirmed the activation of the emergency preparedness team in leading some people to go out of the mall.

"We didn't announce total evacuation but we did facilitate the orderly exit of those who wanted to leave the building. So far, there were neither any injuries nor damage within the mall. The mall remains to be in normal operations, although early closure of the mall is announced at 7pm today and some shops have closed early to allow employees to go home to their families," Polloso said.

As part of CHI's emergency preparedness measures, regular evacuation drills are conducted for managed properties. The design of our buildings also considers seismic analysis, to prepare against earthquakes based on national and international structural requirements.

aw ok ra cguro kung matumpag mubo ramn. :bash:

kung i.base sa epicenter i dont think delikado ang cebu city sa tsunami. bisan pa cguro if naay tsunami maalihan mn sa mactan island. i think the best is to stay away from buildings or infrastructure na dali matumpag and mobs of panicking people.

naa aftershocks 6:10pm og 7:35pm

Interesting day indeed! I was on skype client call this morning when the quake struck. The house was shaking, the power was cut and I was out of the house. Resume my skype call past 12. Traffic was becoming terrible around 1 pm going to Pacific Mall. Had a quick lunch for a 2Pm meeting in Subangdaku.
After the meeting before 3pm, people were in panic on the streets. Unsaon kay walay taxi.
So i have to walk. What caught my attention was a family preparing to 'evacuate.' They were on their multicab (pickup) with all the family members (with the lola) and the dog and the sto. nino. And workers were anxious about just closing their stores.

SaveMore Bask (Insular Square) will open February 9, 2012, 3PM. Thursday. Mooon Cafe and Pan de Manila also will be opening soon.

The street traffic were all jammed, asta CITOM og Pulis nangapil pod og panagan.

Just to make sure, I stayed in USC for a couple of minutes before going out to find my friends. They told me it's impossible to have a tsunami here since the epicenter is at the western seaboard of Cebu (lain sad kay'g mu-U TURN ang balod dire sa pikas dapig).

i dont think so. it wont get enough strength to create a significant wave. i remember our ripple experiment back from the primary schools days.

Like in this video, everybody panicked.

I dont believe Cebu City doesn't have any guideline for this type of situation.

Like in this video, someone cried wolf, BIG TIME!!!

_7eA8-65YJk

If you were at the streets, lacking information and there was confusion all over, would you know where exactly the epicenter is? And given that it was the strongest quake in 90 years, most of the people have never felt such strong quake. The basic instinct of the people is triggered: survival.

I somehow understood what happened yesterday and I don't accuse these people to be stupid or dumb. Nakuratan jud unya wa jud sila information,

Hence, we need to reevaluate our disaster preparedness, from the tech savvy to those who live in the shanties. After all, in times of disasters, we are all equal. At the same time, I guess all major cities and towns in the coastal areas should have blaring sirens like the ones in Japan when there is a real tsunami.

DoTC lists priority projects for PPP
http://business.inquirer.net/43411/dotc-lists-priority-projects-for-ppp

The government plans to bid out a contract to extend southwards the Light Railway Transit-1 from Baclaran to Cavite by March or April this year, adding a crucial mass transportation project worth around P45 billion to this year’s pipeline of public-private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects.

The LRT-1 project is among the big-ticket infrastructure projects to be contributed by the Department of Transportation and Communications (DoTC) to the much-awaited PPP agenda apart from large-scale projects to be funded by the government itself to help pump-prime the economy, Transportation Secretary Mar Roxas said in a briefing Monday.

The DoTC is also fast-tracking the construction of a modern international airport in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, to accommodate an increased influx of tourists following the inclusion of the Underground River among the world’s “New Seven Wonders of Nature.” The P4.46-billion project will be funded using bilateral assistance from South Korea. The bidding for the construction of the airport will be held in the third quarter of the year.

Other big-ticket infrastructure projects under DoTC’s responsibility that investors hope to see auctioned this year are the Laguindingan Airport operation and maintenance ($34.9 million), automatic fare collection system for LRT ($7 million), Mactan-Cebu airport new terminal development ($180 million), construction of a new Bohol airport ($158 million) and LRT-2 east extension ($206 million).

Those are indeed the “PPP examples,” Roxas said, adding that other projects could also be added to the pipeline, such as the rehabilitation of Sasa Port in Davao and the passenger terminal buildings in Tacloban and Cebu.

Roxas said the blueprint for LRT-1 is now with the National Economic and Development Authority and likely to hurdle approvals soon. He added that the government was now working on the terms of reference and might be able to bid out the PPP project for the design and construction of the railway expansion to Cavite.

The vision is to harness private sector money to build the railway extension with the help of land right-of-way acquired by the government, which will separately procure the additional fleet that will run on the expanded railway.

“Subsequently, the government, through ODA [official development assistance], will then bid out the rolling stock and once that’s completed, it will be added to the inventory of vehicles that will ply the route,” Roxas said.

“Whoever wins the design and construction contract will also win the O&M [operation and maintenance] of the entire 28-kilometer railway,” he said.

LRT-1, the oldest elevated railway in the metropolis, runs a 16-kilometer stretch from Monumento to Baclaran, while the expansion will involve an additional 12 kilometers to reach Cavite. Overall, the LRT-1 rehabilitation, including the acquisition of new fleet, will cost P80 billion, of which the railway construction alone will cost P45 billion.

Roxas said the country’s railways would soon be rebranded to follow a color scheme, adopting popular global practice and thus making it easier for tourists and first-time passengers to use the mass transportation system. LRT-1 will be known as the “green line,” LRT-2 as the “blue” line and LRT-3 (also known as Metro Railway Transit-3 along EDSA) the “yellow” line.

One thing's for sure, there was a sudden rise of sea level yesterday at Balamban. There was indeed a displacement that happened below Tañon Strait. Although thank goodness it was minimal.

right! Its unlikely for Manila people to give such racists comments regarding what happened to Cebu and the rest of the Visayas yesterday. As a matter of fact, impress pa nga sila sa Cebu if they compare it to Metro Manila! Probably the one making such vile remarks are those people who envied Cebu much, people who live in places that are far below Cebu's development trying to phantom the downfall of Cebu! Actually, marami yan dito sa SSC! :lol::baeh3:

Death toll in Visayas earthquake reaches 43 – military
Jason Gutierrez (Agence France-Presse)
Monday | February 6, 2012

The death toll from a 6.8-magnitude earthquake that struck off the coast of central Philippines Monday has reached at least 43 people, officials said.

The powerful quake hit in a narrow strait between the heavily populated island provinces of Negros and Cebu, causing buildings to collapse, cracking roads and bridges, and shutting down the power supply.

In Cebu city, a popular tourist destination and city of 2.3 million, hotel guests scrambled to higher floors as unfounded rumors that a huge tsunami was bearing down spread by text message.

At least 29 were killed by landslides while 10 others were crushed by collapsing buildings in the mountainous town of Guihulngan in Negros, said regional military official Colonel Francisco Patrimonio.

Rumors of a tsunami hitting downtown Cebu City caused people to panic
By Bernadette A. Parco | Davinci S. Maru
Kevin A. Lagunda | Linette C. Ramos (SunStar Cebu Daily)
Tuesday | February 7, 2012

FOR several minutes yesterday afternoon, the streets in downtown Cebu City looked like a scene from some disaster movie, with thousands of panic-stricken people running to safety.

At past 2:30 p.m., shortly after Phivolcs lifted the “tsunami alert level 2” status in Cebu, panic and hysteria broke out in downtown Cebu City.

Some people chose to go up tall or even mid-rise buildings, while others fled toward Fuente Osmeña and the Capitol.

In their panic, some people left their vehicles on the road to join the crowd that filled the streets while others ran to their homes to grab their children and nothing else, only to hit the streets again.

A resident in Barangay Sto. Niño said he heard people saying that Colon St. was already flooded. :ohno::ohno::ohno:

There were some who said a man, riding a motorcycle on Gorordo Ave., was telling people he passed by that the sea has flooded downtown Cebu City. :bash::bash::bash:

Quake toll rising but no deaths in Cebu
SunStar Cebu Daily
Tuesday | February 7, 2012

CEBU CITY -- Local officials expect an increase in the number of fatalities in Monday's earthquake that struck Negros and Cebu islands, with search and retrieval operations ongoing for dozens of people trapped under collapsed buildings and houses.

No major damage and no deaths were reported in Cebu province, but the National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council (NDRRMC) recorded at least seven fatalities in neighboring province of Negros Oriental.

The quake also left 40 people missing, most of them living along the shore near the epicenter of the 6.9-magnitude tremor that struck five kilometers northwest of Tayasan, Negros Oriental.

Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) Director Renato Solidum said the quake Monday was set off by movement in an undersea fault.

In a hindsight, there were positive things the Earthquake and Tsunami Mass Hysteria brought to Cebu. It actually exposes the lack of the local government's preparedness on the earthquake disaster and the management of this disaster. There should be already a protocol in place for all government offices, personnel, local police and military during and after a disaster... or widely known as disaster preparedness plan.. or if there are already, then we could say there is a lack or total failure in the actual implementation.

I would cite the best example are the schools which i think clueless of what to do of the school children in times like an earthquake and tsunami occurs. Would it be safe to assemble them inside the school and let the School Disaster Preparedness plan handle things or let them go on their own... But the question is, does the school have this Disaster Preparedness Plan or of they have would it be sufficient and effective considering the thousands of students. I really doubt. I am bringing this up because for sure, when an earthquake followed by a tsunami will hit during office hours, parents wont have enough time to save their children at schools, they will be left on saving their own selves.. I cant imagine the catastrophe.

And now its clear that the best thing that happened yesterday is that it exposes, that our city and province with all the political talks, bickerings and bruhahaha are actually unprepared for a disaster especially an earthquake and worse a tsunami.

Personally, i am confident that the City is insulated from a major tsunami like what happened in South Asia and Japan and i also believe that Sr. Sto. Nino will spare Cebu from any major destruction caused by this natural disasters... But, there will be no harm and it would be to the best of interest of everybody that we shall all be prepared.

And i believe the NDRRM shall spearhead a widespread campaign for preparation on all types of forthcoming disaster. All institutions, private and public corporations, organizations, neighborhood shall be tasked to formulate Disaster Preparedness and Management Plans to somehow mitigate casualties and prevent the widespread loss of lives in the process.

i think the cebuanos are well aware of what had happened in the latest earthquake in japan, chile, new zealand and indonesia. cebu being surrounded with bodies of water will most likely experience some of form of tsunamis be it big or small waves during earthquakes maski mga kabataan nato siguro karon aware na sila about that subject. para naku wala man siguro nag panic ang mga tawo. nahitabo lang nga everybody is thinking about fight or flight for survival. i bet the first thing everybody thought is staying away from falling debris and then moving to higher grounds.

pero maayo gyud unta nga duna tay systematic emergency preparedeness program nga i implement sa atong mga eskuwelahan, businesses and government agencies ug labi na sa atong tagsa2x ka panimalay within our communities. naunhan pa man gani nato ang california kay nag 6.8-7 magnitude earthquake naman ta.

i just felt another aftershock..

i dont think so. it wont get enough strength to create a significant wave. i remember our ripple experiment back from the primary schools days.

Like in this video, everybody panicked.

I dont believe Cebu City doesn't have any guideline for this type of situation.

Like in this video, someone cried wolf, BIG TIME!!!

One thing's for sure, there was a sudden rise of sea level yesterday at Balamban. There was indeed a displacement that happened below Tañon Strait. Although thank goodness it was minimal.

This one is at Balamban, western Cebú. Facing Tañon Strait

hahaha! people who never lose their wit even in hard times. LOL!

1st pic: if that was taken in Jonquera St. beside USC, me and my friends are still playing Warcraft at that time. LOL! Never mind the crowd, bahala'g kami-kami ra sa sulod ang nahagbilin basta kay wala jud pake bisag nagpanic na ang uban. Maypang operator sa Gols oh, kalma ra kau. hahaha! :D :D :D Good to realize that we're enjoying ourselves while everyone's running out of fear and hysteria. Oh well, I can't tell them all to chill down, they're too many to handle, better give myself a good game while classes are suspended for the day. :D :D :D

Please do something worthwhile. Be aware of the things around you. We're not saying running was the right thing to do but does it hurt to check the facts why people were acting weirdly? Just a short call to family or friends will be beneficial, if ever things repeat. The fact that those info believed by so many was false works on you. What if the scare was true? You better err on the safe side than be sorry for doing nothing.

^^ Well, I did call home back then and assured everyone that I was safe and that there was nothing to worry about. I also stayed atop the school building for a few minutes just to make sure but then soon realized it was just someone trolling. Well, when I got to my friends' location, they just told me it was a scare and so we just played out our time. They warned the people inside the cafe about the false alarm but everyone just can't notice them because of the hysteria. Nothing we can do.

Quite relieved and glad to note that no major incident happened.

In the absence of any systematic info drive, I see nothing wrong with people running to higher ground - in fact, I see it in a positive light. It's called basic survival instincts and a human trait :yes:. In the case of the barefeet women running, nothin wrong with that either. In both reel (hollywood disaster films) and real events (like, 9/11 New York City), women can be seen running in bare feet some holding their high heels or leaving these behind. ;) [To drive home the point, across all airlines the world over, the emergency evacuation drills for expected crash landings in water or terrain is for women to remove their high heeled shoes because obviously women's shoes slow them down and would puncture emergency escape slides and rafts.] And that is that.

Yes indeed, it's in our best interests to invest more in disaster preparedness. And IMHO, for now its gonna be we're on our own mostly. The current payaso in Malacanan tends to disappear during previous floods and landslides in Mindanao, lessons learnt and we can expect nothing more.

Be safe y'all. :cool:

a friend who works in a call center in cebu business park informed me that thier building was evacuated. there was a mild aftershock. stay safe Visayas!

While it is necessary to keep a cool head during these times, it is never the best time to act nonchalant just to look "cool". The "hey we're so cool because we don't look scared while everyone's running for their lives, while we can afford to make fun of it all" stance isn't really cool in my book. It may be understandable for us Cebuanos who never really got to witness firsthand a calamity of (potentially) such magnitude, to act so unperturbed about it, atoang timan-an nga ingani sab ang nahitabo sa ubang mga nasod ug lugar kung diin dili lang false alarm pero nadayon gyud ang katalagman.

For now, it may look exciting and fun, but I think it's not in good taste to poke fun at people who were mortally terrified. I suggest we do that "after the fact". I know it's in our culture to be able to laugh and poke fun at ourselves, but while the scare and calamity is still on our doors, we should do something productive and helpful. Let us not act like idiots (like those guys holding up the signs, mga bai: NOT FUNNY AT ALL, and DEFINITELY NOT COOL).

Grabeh sah! Nag-linog naman pud diay ganinang buntag. Wala ko kabantay kay didto ko's gawas. Nagsulti na gani ang ops ron sa office nga if ever mag aftershock na pud ug balik kay pagawson na gyud mi sa building. So far, wala naman. Naa mi ron Banilad. :)

And ganinang kadlawn pud di ba? Mga 4:45AM man siguro to...

Katong time nga nanagan na ang mga tawo sa Colon ug sa Fuente bah, gi-tangtang na ba tong Tsunami Alarm sa Cebu? Kay if yes, it would've helped somehow those people nga naa sa dalan nga ma-inform sila nuh? Like, naa ba roy mga nag Patrol to inform everyone to calm down kay false alarm ra tong Tsunami ug tsismis ra tong naabot na ang tubig sa SM, Colon ug Junquera! Hehe! :)

Share lang nako usa ka "funny" situation pagpanagan na's mga tawo: *human nitan-aw sa sapa sa T. Padilla* Naa'y lalaki nga nisyagit nga wala lagi kuno'y tsunami kay... WALA DAW NISAKA ANG TUBIG SA SAPA! Ahaha! Adika ui!

I heard from the taxi driver on my way home last night that the man who believed to be the one spreading the tsunami scare was a person coming from a a certain religious denomination. According to him, that person rode his motorbike from the downtown all the way up to Busay preaching apocalyptic statements and that the tsunami had already hit the downtown area and is moving towards the uptown area which all the more caused panic and hysteria to the public. According to the driver, authorities have already captured him and is already in custody.

In a hindsight, there were positive things the Earthquake and Tsunami Mass Hysteria brought to Cebu. It actually exposes the lack of the local government's preparedness on the earthquake disaster and the management of this disaster. There should be already a protocol in place for all government offices, personnel, local police and military during and after a disaster... or widely known as disaster preparedness plan.. or if there are already, then we could say there is a lack or total failure in the actual implementation.

I would cite the best example are the schools which i think clueless of what to do of the school children in times like an earthquake and tsunami occurs. Would it be safe to assemble them inside the school and let the School Disaster Preparedness plan handle things or let them go on their own... But the question is, does the school have this Disaster Preparedness Plan or of they have would it be sufficient and effective considering the thousands of students. I really doubt. I am bringing this up because for sure, when an earthquake followed by a tsunami will hit during office hours, parents wont have enough time to save their children at schools, they will be left on saving their own selves.. I cant imagine the catastrophe.

And now its clear that the best thing that happened yesterday is that it exposes, that our city and province with all the political talks, bickerings and bruhahaha are actually unprepared for a disaster especially an earthquake and worse a tsunami.

Personally, i am confident that the City is insulated from a major tsunami like what happened in South Asia and Japan and i also believe that Sr. Sto. Nino will spare Cebu from any major destruction caused by this natural disasters... But, there will be no harm and it would be to the best of interest of everybody that we shall all be prepared.

And i believe the NDRRM shall spearhead a widespread campaign for preparation on all types of forthcoming disaster. All institutions, private and public corporations, organizations, neighborhood shall be tasked to formulate Disaster Preparedness and Management Plans to somehow mitigate casualties and prevent the widespread loss of lives in the process.

ingon ani unta buhaton sa goberno either local or national nga mo declare emergency unya magpahibao asa kang radio station maninao aron magmonitor kung unsang klasi emergency. This is in the U.S.

it seems like this comment came from another retarded retard pretending to be normal or cool. anyway, i have called on the admins before to call the attention of this "kid" but to no avail. dong, there are things that are better left unsaid if you know it will just break someone else's heart matud pa nila.

hala ka @ken daghan na ka ug haters...makatupong na siguro kang achee flores..:lol:...

next time lang jud siguro kung naay ingon ani, its better to tune in to radios labi na kung AM , nakapait lang sa atong mga stations kay FM ra...makaduda man gud usahay nang txt, pero mao pud lagi kung kita naka sa mga taw nga nagdagan unya ang ilang reaction pud, di na ka momatter kung tinuod ba na ilang giistorya o maminaw pa ba ka ug radyo.

fm stations could break from their usual programmings in times of calamities. i guess they too have CSRs (corporate social responsibilites).

sa akong nahibaw-an (matod sa facebook) naa daw nag motor nga niadto sa daplin sa dagat kay nangita sa iyahang anak.. sige siyag siyagit "Chona Mae!",

Metro Cebu: Asia’s next retail hub (http://www.malaya.com.ph/02092012/property1.html)
Malaya Business Insight
February 9, 2012

THE proliferation of retail developments along with an influx of domestic and foreign tourists is turning Metro Cebu into a major retail destination in the South, according to real estate advisory firm CB Richard Ellis (CBRE) Philippines.

CBRE said that with the right push and consistent support from both public and private sectors, Metro Cebu can even become the newest retail destination in Asia.

The firm reported a total of 5.6 million local and foreign tourists visited Cebu from January to November last year.

CBRE noted that 1.32 million of these tourists are international travellers.

With the increasing number of tourists, local and national retail developers are seeing Metro Cebu’s retail business as a growth opportunity.

Local retail players like Prince Warehouse, Metro Gaisano, Gaisano South and Gaisano Capital are no longer alone in Metro Cebu’s retail arena with the expansion of big national retailers such as SM, Robinsons, Rustan’s/Shopwise and Puregold.

"The entry of these big players are a show of confidence in the growth potential of Metro Cebu’s retail sector," CBRE said.

American fashion brand Forever 21 launched its first outlet outside Metro Manila in SM City Cebu in the second half of 2011.

A three-storey mall with 70,000 square meters of gross leasable area called J Centre was also launched in the second half of last year.

CBRE reported that Cebu Holdings, Inc. (CHI), an affiliate of property developer Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) is embarking on the central stage of Ayala Center Cebu’s expansion within the 9-hectare land inside the Cebu Business Park.

The P3-billion four-level development is said to complete the original full-circle design of the mall.

In addition, two SM Savemore Markets opened in Mandaue last November while SM Consolacion with its 40,000 sqm of gross leasable area is set to open this year.

SM Prime Holdings also launched a P20 billion integrated development project at South Road Properties (SRP) called SM Seaside Complex.

The 30-hectare development will be anchored by a huge shopping mall to be known SM Seaside City Cebu which is about half of the size of the SM Mall of Asia in Pasay, CBRE reported.

Filinvest Land also announced its entry to the Metro Cebu retail business late last year with a retail space project in its 50-hectare new community development in Cebu City’s SRP.

The land development of the 10.6-hectare retail development has started in October last year and the first phase would be completed by the third quarter of 2013.

Metro Cebu is composed of three major cities in Cebu, namely Cebu, Mandaue, and Lapu-Lapu.

Metro Cebu has an aggregate population of roughly 1.5 million and a total land area of 408 square kilometers.

CBRE noted that about 37 percent of Cebu’s population is found in these three major cities.

"With Cebu now becoming known as a major tourist destination, Cebu retailers are directly benefitting from the upsurge in tourist arrivals from shopping requirements as well as increased demand from HORECA (Hotels, Restaurants and Catering Services)," CBRE said.

"This momentum continues to build up as government initiatives are geared towards the growth of investment and tourism of Metro Cebu," the firm added.

wala paman na ma accepted word ang tsunami sa una. tidal wave paman to ang uso. bag-o lang na gigamit ang tsunami kay uso man ang tidal wave sa japan basta cause by linog sa dagat mao nga na accepted word na ang tsunami. parang na misnomer na ang tidal wave sa bag-ong panahon kay it can also be cause by storms or typhoons dili lang kay earthquake nga nagsukad sa ilawom sa ocean.

Sa tinuod lang, "Tornado" man ang tawag ana sa Ingles. Ang sinugdanan ana, kusug nga hanging nga lapad-lapad ang gibag-on, horizontal ang huros. Unya makabangga ug lain nga hangin nga dili sad pareho ang gikusgon sa iyang gilapdon, mao nga matuwad ang huros sa hangin, imbes nag-roll horizontally, mapa-vertical hinuon ang iyang tuyok!

Ug adto sa dagat mahulma, makasuyop ug tubig. Inig maduol sa yuta, unya mabangga-an na sad ug laing hangin, mokalit ug kahug ang da nga tubig kay mohinay man ang iyang pagtuyok.

Ug adto sa dagat mahulma, makasuyop ug tubig. Inig maduol sa yuta, unya mabangga-an na sad ug laing hangin, mokalit ug kahug ang da nga tubig kay mohinay man ang iyang pagtuyok.

puede pa siguro na dugangan ug duha ka district ang cebu province. also create mandaue a lone district and a 3rd district for cebu city para daghan ug representation ang mga sugbuanon/bisaya didto sa kauluhan. besides every district gets a budget for its constituent towns and cities. im for the creation of more districts in cebu not for sugbu-ak.

i was kinda hoping they'd have a second floor balcony. it would be awesome to go people-watching from there.

next order of business, clear the sidewalk of vendors.

well, although we can never tell natural occurences but there are fault lines that can only generate a certain magnitude and intensity depending on its size and depth. In the case of Cebu, I believe fault lines that surrounds us could be small to generate earthquakes such as Japan and if ever it generates a tsunami, it may never be as big as Japan's because we are surrounded by islands which are natural tide breakers.

Be safe everyone there in Cebu. We don`t know what will happen next. Mao ni akong giingon sa una nga way dakong faultline under Cebu but there is along Negros and Leyte and if it will move, apil gihapon ang Cebu.

Agi ra ko. God Bless everyone!:)

(batusay)


Cebu Pacific posts 50% market share in key cities

CEBU AIR, Inc., the listed operator of budget carrier Cebu Pacific, reportedly closed 2011 cornering half of the market share for flights to Cebu, Davao and Iloilo.

The aviation firm, in a statement yesterday, claimed it garnered a 48% share in Cebu, 47% in Davao, and 50% in Iloilo.

“With our seat sales and multiple flight options, we are happy to play a key role in the tourism and economic development of the whole of the Philippines,” Candice A. Iyog, Cebu Air vice-president for marketing and distribution said in the statement.

According to the release, flights originating from Cebu numbered more than 500 weekly, flying to 19 domestic destinations. These included direct flights from Cebu to the Bicol Region, North Luzon, and Palawan, among others.

Meanwhile, the airline flew more than 200 weekly flights from Davao to Manila, Cebu, Cagayan de Oro, Zamboanga, and Iloilo.

As for Iloilo, Cebu Pacific flew more than 150 flights a week between the city and Manila, Cebu, Cagayan de Oro, and Davao.

Ms. Iyog also said that the airline is currently working on adding more flights and routes to its Philippine network.

Cebu Pacific currently flies to 33 domestic destinations from Manila, Cebu, Clark, and Davao.

Cebu Air, Inc.’s shares closed at P 73.85 apiece last Friday, down 0.07% from its previous day’s close of P 73.90 per share. -- B.F.V. Roc

uy long time no post bro! kumusta?! Actually daw, its not the Negros Trench that moved last Monday, it was an uncharted fault-line (blind fault) in the Tanon Strait. Now that this has been discovered, expect that Western Cebu and Eastern Negros will be mapped out as potential tsunami areas in the country.

what happen sa chowking store?

closed!

Yung Mcdo ba infront of Gaisano South open pa?

Yes!
