perhaps broaden your mind my friend..taga-iit man kaha ka!!!:ohno::ohno::ohno:


I have been studying and observing Iligan City for over 3 years now. It seems most of the time someone brings up the subject of safety in Iligan or it not being a safe place, those with the negativity towards it have never even been there. Just about any city in any part of the world can be as safe or unsafe as you want it to be.

There have been many visitors to Iligan city including myself who have had no problem there. For international visitors from western countries there are things that are different such as culture etc. but that does not translate to any kind of safety issue. Just use some common sense as you would in any other city. If you are going to go for a stroll in an dark alleyway with people hanging out there in the middle of the night as you exhibit your expensive jewelery, cash hanging out of your pockets etc. naturally you could be putting yourself in a less than desireable situation. This applies anyplace !

I have been to many different cities during the course of my travels such as New York, London, Edinburgh, Vegas, Miami, Manila and Iligan City. I have never had such a welcomed feeling and great hospitality anywhere than I recieved from my visits to Iligan City. Naturally I used common sense as I would in any other city situation, I had no problems in Iligan despite all the negativity I had heard from those that had never been there.

I even received an official welcome from the Mayor of Iligan City, Mayor Lawrence Cruz in his office at city hall. For me that was a real first as I had never had that anywhere else.

There is an individual who has and continues to travel all over Mindanao and publishes blogs about his travels and other information on his website about the ins and outs, the good spots and the not so good spots of the island. He too has given Iligan City the thumbs up for safety and to me he is a fellow American so reading his blogs nd other published information there is No translation loss.

How about when 10,000 people on another part of Mindanao felt it necessary to evacuate their homes and towns a few months back. They could have gone to many other places but where did they go for safety and refuge ? Iligan City of course. Can 10,000 people be wrong ? They were welcomed and looked after as best as possible. I even sent a small donation as the only way I could offer a helping hand from the other side of the world.

I believe Iligan is one of the first cities on Mindanao to be city-wired with security cameras and they even let you sample them from any place in the world right here on the internet ! If it were that unsafe in Iligan do you really think they would show that to the whole world ? I don't think so.

Try riding around on the New York City subway system for a few hours. Then try riding around on the London Underground for a few hours, then go to Iligan City ! I have done these things and a lot more and although I kept my wits about me and used common sense, I never felt any safety or security difficulty on my visits in Iligan. Why not try it for yourself sometime ?

When you hear people speak or write about " the warmth and hospitality of The Iliganons " there really is a lot of truth to that and for someone to tell me otherwise you'd have to prove it.

WHen I first arrived in Iligan City, I only had the clothes on my back as the airline I traveled half way around the earth on lost my luggage somewhere in Taipei. Not only did the hotel management express their dissapointment, they asked me for the phone numbers of the airline, they made all the calls to Manila ( long distance charges applied ) and when I checked out they said the phone charger were complements of the house. Naturally the hotel is managed and staffed by Iliganons !

I have made some lifelong friendships in Iligan City and I am planning on returning there again. Would I plan something like that if I thought it was not a safe place for me to go on a vacation ? It may not rank as a popular International Tourist city ( yet ) but for me it was one of the best places I have ever visited.

Iligan is something to be " Experienced " and I would not hesitate recommending a visit there to anyone.

Iligan CIty.................Simply Amazing !

http://i466.photobucket.com/albums/rr25/bobiniligan/IliganPhotos-by-IRBO-08236.jpg

Never underestimate the warmth and hospitality of Iliganons !

And aside from that@Fernandopoe, @BobNewYork is an Iliganon himself :) You don't wanna mess up with Iligan or you mess up with @BoB! joke only :lol:

Not really, @FernandoPoe, perhaps it's high time also that we need also to know that there are certain issues why most places in Mindanao have been put with such a connotation that's something to do with safety. Not only Iligan but as well as other places in Mindanao. Take for instance how many investors who opted to be in Cebu rather than any other place in Mindanao? It's not only Iligan but the whole island! And to think of it, the security problem is way further south in two separate islands outside of the mainland of Mindanao and that's in Basilan and Sulu! :ohno:

This is because our media has failed to notice the difference of Iligan and Cagayan de Oro to Sulu or Davao City to Basilan because they think the whole of Mindanao is a war zone! They failed to realize the distance of those war torn places from the other places in Mindanao such as General Santos City, Cagayan de Oro, Iligan, Davao, Butuan or Surigao cities. They think each and every city is laden with the same "stigma" (as you coined it) that Sulu and Basilan has.

The problem is with the media @Fernandoepoe, not with us, nor our failure to put an Iligan projects thread or any other nuisances that you may think. We dont have any problem in Iligan with security nor are we having problem without those investors. We are happy with what is Iligan now. We are happy with its humbling mix of nature and industry. We are happy Christians trading with the Muslims beside us. We are happy even without those gigantic malls that the other cities have. We are happy that with its present state, Iligan City has a "distinction" that it can respect of its own. Although what is with other cities is also what some, if not all, of us also wish, but those are merely wishful thinking coz we love our humble Iligan City. Who wouldn't want big development for their city? BUT, with It's natural resources,the waterfalls, the humble people and the expenditure of living which is not high unlike that of Cebu or Davao and Manila. I ask you, In what "highly urbanized city" in the Philippines can you go around the city with just a P 10.00 bill and be able to go back home with only that as an amount? Where can find a city where you can only have P 10.00 pesos as a back-and-forth public transport fare? That alone, and with the low price of food here, we can live our day to day without the problem of thinking to spend big unlike those "mega cities".

We have come to love our city, with or without "Gloria's" assistance or any other investments that may pass us. With or without the president's devotion to the city that "hosted" her younger years. We love this city as it is, simple, humble, and down-to-earth. And just as @Bobnewyork said that " the warmth and hospitality of The Iliganons " are unlike any other. Those are the reasons why we opted for Iligan's simplicity rather than trying more than hard to promote for more industries or other investments but surely, if those investments may pour in, then why not? We are open for any visitors or investors who are more than willing to live here than just "invest". We are open those are willing to make relationships and friends than just eat, dine, and sleep. We are hospitable as we are to people who have come to share the love of an Iliganon which we cannot see elsewhere but here. But, @Bobnewyork himself, though not coming from here, has shared that same feeling as an Iliganon. That's why he's no alien to all of us here in Iligan CIty thread. We know him for his love of Iligan just as we love our beloved city.

Don't worry about Iligan @Fernandoepoe, we, the city dwellers ourselves, know what's best for us for we live here. No one will ever know the needs and wants of Iligan but US who see the real SCORE of Iligan's state.

Iligan City launches computerized tax collection
by Lorry V. Gabule

Iligan City (13 March) -- Internal Revenue Deputy Commissioner Lilia C. Guillermo witnessed the launching of the Integrated Tax System (ITS) in Revenue District Office (RDO) No. 101, Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) in Iligan City, on March 12.

"This is the last phase of our Bureau's Nationwide Rollout of Computerized System (NRCS) Program out of the remaining 75 non-computerized RDOs from 2007 to 2008, totaling to 115 computerized districts nationwide," said Commissioner Guillermo.

She said the project is aimed at improving tax collection, providing better service to taxpayers, and deter tax evasion, adding that the NRCS aims to complete the computerization of the operations of the BIR all over the country.

The Commissioner explained that the computerization program automates the registration, collection, returns processing, and taxpayer accounting processes in the Bureau.

"In this way, it enables the BIR to better respond to taxpayer requests and reduce transaction time for them. Finally, by enabling the Bureau to establish a more comprehensive data bank and compare data across in different data clusters, it will make identifying tax evaders easier," Guillermo said.

While it is true that said Program would make the operations of the RDO more efficient and effective, Revenue District Officer Casan P. Azis of Iligan said that the Bureau has personnel trained in the different tasks in operating the automated systems under the program, and NRCS provided equipment like desktop computers, printers, filing cabinets and computer tables and chairs, along with the required electrical upgrades and Local Area Network (LAN) cabling.

The procurement of the equipment and training of BIR personnel were supported by the Millennium Challenge Account-Philippines Threshold Program Technical Assistance Project (MCA-PTP-TAP).

Phyllis Cox, chief of Party, MCA-PTP-TAP, said that the project assists the Philippine government to improve revenue administration and fight corruption.

"It is supported by a US$ 20.6 million grant from the Millennium Challenge Corporation, a US government corporation that supports development programs and projects all over the world. The grant is administered by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID)," Phyllis Cox disclosed.

Nonetheless, RDO Azis took the opportunity of thanking the participants of their response to RDO's invitation for this purpose. (PIA Lanao del Norte)

San Miguel(near MSU-IIT) that are not functioning.i hope the city government will extend more efforts to fixed them up since summer is near..families and children will spend their early nights in the parks..:)

The "floor" of the plaza was being put down when I was there back in September 2007, It will be nice to see the finished floor when I get back there this September. :banana:

The plaza to me looks very nice, simple, clean and friendly, it's something I wish the city governments could do here in New Zealand! :bash:

The defunct Iligan Day Inn will soon be named Iligan Medical Center College (IMCC)-Annex. This is to the fact that the school is finding ways into accommodating the growing number of enrollees. IMCC-Annex, was originally planned for the HRM department, however, with provident reason the plan was cancelled. Instead they plan to utilized the 4-storey building by putting up a Library, 2 Computer Laboratories, Mini-Hotel and Classrooms. General subjects in HRM and Information Technology courses are soon to be held in this building.

At present, massive planning and renovations have already been made to meet its inauguration date.

its a 3 storey IMPERIAL APPLIANCE PLAZA..:cheers:


Imperial Plaza Appliance moving to a bigger and better location ? I enjoyed going to this store in Iligan and bought a few things there. The sales people seemed to know what they are selling, Delivery was prompt and when promised to multiple locations around the city. All display products were well identified and prices displayed. Salespeople were not " Pushy " and spent all the time necessary answering my questions. Nice variety of items available for sale too.

I enjoy going to stores like this to see differences in comonly used things here and how they differ in other parts of the world. I had never seen plastic clothes washing machines before and some of the ones I saw in appliance stores in Iligan really interested me. One of these visits I might bring one home with me as a souvenier !

Another store I really liked was a Computer store near the Plaza. When I first entered it I could not help but notice the place is stacked from floor to ceiling with lots of great computer stuff. Some of which was familiar to me and some not which made for an interesting shopping experience. Once again, the people in this store knew what they were selling and answered any and all questions I had and I bought some things there. I can really enjoy places like that. I would still like to find out what is in those AVR boxes everyone seems to use there on PC's. I bought one for a friend and really wanted to drill out the rivets holding the conver on it to see what is in there. Things like that are not in common use here. Some people use a " UPS " but I have not ever seen stand alone AVR here. As a matter of fact, I recently bought a APC brand UPS here at my home and on the bottom is says " Made In Philippines " !

I often describe myself as not being a typical tourist. Then again is there such a thing as a typical tourist ? That is one more thing I like about Iligan City, no matter what kind of tourist someone feels they might be there is so much variety in Iligan there should be something for everybody !

Additionally, in those pics of the City Plaza and many of the other pictures it is not always what you see, but what you don't see as well. I seldom see much " litter " on the street photos and I know these are not retouched pics where the litter has been taken out of it. I did not see much litter in the streets at all in Iligan when I have been there to visit. Can't say that about a lot of the other places I have visited.

Iligan City..............Simply Amazing !

^^ another great compliments from sir bob...


The Plaza's mini gazebo is being renovated as of today... :cheers:

Usa ka 3-storey shopping mall, tukuron sa Iligan
Tuesday, 21 October 2008


Nagmalampuson si Vice Mayor Henry Dy nga makombinsi ang usa ka Koreanong investor nga motukod og usa ka Three (3)-Storey Shopping Mall dinhi sa Dakbayan sa Iligan nga magkantidad og 120 milyones pesos.

Sigun sa nasayran gikan sa bise mayor, ang maong balay-patigayon mao ang Unitop Shopping Mall nga ipabarog diha sa kanto sa Quezon Avenue ug dalang Ramiro nga kanhi nahimutangan sa Building sa Boy Scouts of the Philippines dinhi sa siyudad. Matud pa, nagkasabot na karon ang BSP ug Unitap nga arkelahan ang naasoy’ng luna sulod sa mosunod nga 28 ka tuig.

Giasoy ni Vice Mayor Dy, nga unang mipabati og interes ang maong investor niadtong nanglabay’ng mga bulannga mo-arkela sa Central Market Building B aron i-renovate ug i-develop ngadto sa usa ka shopping mall apan napugngan lamang sa problema sa tukmang kabalhinan sa mga nag-okopar karon.

Ang maong sitwasyon ang naka-aghat kaniya nga kombinsihon ang langyaw’ng investor sa pagpahimutang na lamang sa ilang higanteng tindahan sa bakanteng luna nga iya sa BSP.

Atol sa Flag Raising Program sa city hall kagahapong adlawa, personal nga gipasalamatan ni Mayor Lawrence Lluch Cruz ang iyang hulip-pamuno tungod kay makahatag man usab kini og dugang buhis ug oportunidad sa panarbaho sa mga katawhan sa dakbayan. (mta)

Tree Climbing In NPC Reserved Forests
NPC Agus 6 Hydro Electric Power Plant
Maria Cristina Reserved Forests
Iligan City

The Benefits of Tree Climbing

Recreational (technical) tree climbing has a number of distinct advantages over many other adventure activities.

Here are some of them:
• Tree climbing is good exercise. Tree climbing is not only fun, but it's also an excellent workout. Though it's not nearly as demanding as it appears, climbing is great exercise for the arms and legs. Climbers work many muscle groups they often don't use elsewhere, and climbing is also great for the spine. The extra bonus to this exercise is that it is stimulating and never boring.

• Tree climbing is very safe. When climbers carefully follow the basic "do and don't" rules, they are virtually assured of a safe climbing experience. CARE has never had anyone fall out of a tree or get badly injured during one of our events.

• Trees are everywhere! You don't have to look far to find a good climbing tree, especially if you're in a natural area. Even in an urbanized setting you can usually find a tree worth climbing.

Concrete reblocking along ICBR Misamis Oriental - Maria Cristina Boundary Road.

Maganda na sana but I really hope the city government would allocate a portion of the city's budget to finance the widening of poblacion-tominobo highway to decongest the traffic in the area.

^^ Ngano kaha sa isa ka portion dira sa reblocking infront sa UCCP gi usab nasad ug bungkag ang dalan..? bag-o pa gani to gi reblock... tsk tsk tsk...

Very inspiring development for Iligan City.

With me living within the vicinity of the city proper, I suggest that the local government put large metal boxes with covers so that the people will have a place to throw their trash. I hate it when evening comes, tons and tons of garbage of different establishments here starts to pile up.

Yeah, Iligan city is 'clean' during the daytime, but when evening comes, maybe around 10pm onwards people have no choice but to put the garbage on the street waiting to be picked up by the collector. Worse still, 'junk boys' tend to scatter these when they try to look for recyclable items.

It is not good to think that we have a decent nightlife establishments open here and guests and visitors would see this.

Just a suggestion though.

http://www.iligan.gov.ph/images/71/Esmeralda3.gif

Every time i have guests coming over to visit me in Iligan City i always make it a point to let them stay in one of the nicest accommodations the city has to offer. It is located in Isabel Village in Pala-o. The name of the place is ESMERALDA.

I love it here because the place is unpretentious and very simple. It is also away from the city so you are assured of quiet time. The place has 3 beautifully designed rooms. They only accept guests through recommendations and referrals. The garden is very serene and relaxing to look at. The entrance to the rooms are very reflective of the owners personality. Simple and clean.

http://www.iligan.gov.ph/images/71/Esmeralda4.gif http://www.iligan.gov.ph/images/71/Esmeralda15.gif

The room is spacious and the bed is huge. Very comfortable. The price is affordable. Just below 1500 per day. And that includes breakfast for two. They have 24 hour security service. The room is equipped with cable television, hot and cold shower and air-conditioning.

I first learned of Chedings " Pride of iligan " peanuts right here on SSC and it was no surprise to me to see them prominently on display in the window of the sari sari at Elena Towers. The first time I went into this store I grabbed a couple of quarter kilo packages of them along with some bottled carbonated soft drink. Once again, something that had only been in my imagination for a long long time was now becoming a reality and I savored the moment as I opened the first package of Chedings Peanuts. It did not take me too long before I was at that sari sari again to buy more of them.

Unfortunately it can cause delays upon re-entry through US Customs to bring food from a foriegn land as you have to go through additional inspection by US Agricultural Customs so I consumed the last of my Chedings peanuts durning the long flight home.

I did keep some of the attractive pckaging as some day it will end up in a large wall mounted picture frame along with some of my " Best of Iligan " souveniers. Next visit I hope to be able to visit the Chedings store shown in Alingatongs pic.

Water Conservation Month Activities
Tuesday, 17 March 2009

The Iligan City Waterworks System gears up for declogging major water pipelines with its Maintenance and Construction Divisions digging out for three of the main pipeline junctions alongside Macapagal Highway .

City Mayor Lawrence Lluch Cruz has ordered the declogging activity scheduled on March 23, this year, after ICWS authorities conducted pressure testing showing the water pressure of 180psi from Ditucalan source has gone down to 105psi at Nonucan and has plunged further to only 17psi at Camague area, making it imperative to act on the problem.

Furthermore, ICWS Manager Christine Milagros Orbe spearheaded a Clean-up Drive surrounding Ditucalan Spring, the city’s largest water source, in preparation for the office’s tree growing activity on March 20 in observance of the Water Conservation Month this whole month of March.They intend to come up with 500 trees of different species such as Narra, Acacia and Mahogany to protect the watershed.(EAMayormita-ICTC / CIO Press Release)

^^ It's nice to see tall trees than seeing a city forested with concrete buildings. It would be so hot just like Manila. Trees and grasses give more fresh ambiance to the setting of the place coz they give you a relaxing feeling as the wind passes through their leaves before it reaches your skin. More trees means more release of oxygen and elimination of carbon dioxide.

you said it correctly tonz

I know we've already moaned about this before in this forum, but apparently no action has been taken on this?
there is a law that makes it criminal for people to tap into the power lines without authorization. *this*, IMHO, should also be criminal, and the proper government agency prosecuted and kicked out of his job:bash:
at times like these, this is plain and simple irresponsibility.
how is it that rich nations are so concerned of conservation, and a struggling country like ours is so wasteful? :ohno:

^^ :ohno: All I can say is: "pabaya, walang pakialam, at walang kaalam-alam sa pinagkakagastusan ng ating gobyerno."

PAL to offer flights to and from Iligan
08/11/2008 | 02:14 AM

CAGAYAN DE ORO CITY, Philippines — Philippine Airlines (PAL) will operate the Manila-Iligan and Cebu-Iligan routes next month through 76-seater planes under low-cost brand PAL Express.

Iligan City Mayor Lawrence L. Cruz said last week PAL would again be active at the nearby Baloi Airport, with flights tentatively scheduled to start on Sept. 27.

Domingo Duerme, PAL senior assistant vice-president for Mindanao sales, said the airline would fly up to four times a week from Iligan City to Manila. The Cebu-Iligan route will have three flights weekly. A 50-seater Bombardier Quiet (Q300) jet propeller will fly the Cebu-Iligan route, while a Q400 will operate in the Manila-Iligan route. At present, passengers going to Manila and Cebu have to come in this city first.

Mindanao provinces and cities west of this city, including Lanao del Norte, Lanao del Sur and Marawi City, make up a significant market not only for airline but also for shipping companies.

Most ferries from Northern Mindanao, including this city’s port, going to Cebu and Manila pass by the port of Iligan to pick up passengers from northwestern provinces of Mindanao.

Iligan City has been served for years by the Maria Cristina Airport, but PAL stopped flights of its less-efficient Fokker and Sunriser planes due to increasing costs and low passenger and cargo traffic.

Iligan is among the most important ports of Mindanao, hosting at least a dozen large manufacturing plants. The city has a population close to 400,000 people. — Geefe P. Alba, BusinessWorld

Bidding alang sa Drug Rehab Center Project sa siyudad,napahigayon kagahapong adlawa
Friday, 20 March 2009

Napahigayon alas 2:00 ang takna kagahapon sa hapon, didto sa city hall, ang pagpangdawat ug pagbukas sa bid documents alang sa Phase I sa Drug Treatment and Rehabilitation Center Project sa siyudad Sitio Fatima, Barangay Abuno.

Duha lamang ang misalmot niini nga mga bidders nga mao ang Yacinnie Construction nga nakabase sa Dakbayan sa Iligan ug DACODECO nga taga Dakbayan sa Davao .

Ang gitanyag nga amount of bid sa Yacinnie mokabat og 4.669 milyones pesos samtang ang DACODECO mitanyag sa amount of bid nga 4.67 milyones pesos.

Sa nasayran gikan sa buhatan sa Bids and Awards Committee sa kagamhanang lokal, pareho nga ubos sa estimated project cost nga 4.672 ang tanyag sa duha ka bidders, apan mas ubos ang Yacinnie kung itandi sa DACODECO. Hinoon, gitataw ni Architect Gil Balondo, Chairman sa BAC, nga dili pa final ang tanan alang niini sanglit aduna pa ma’y pagahimoon nga evaluation of bids sa mosunod nga mga adlaw.

Naglangkob sa phase I sa drug rehab project ang site development, earthwork, backfilling, concrete work formwork and scaffolding, masonry, plumbing ug electrical. (mta/boy decena)

Konsehal Busico mipahayag sa tinood nga kahimtang sa Proposed Cable Car Project
Friday, 20 March 2009

Gipahayag ni Konsehal Alfredo Busico nga boluntaryo niyang gipa-postpone ang mga paglihok alang sa gilaraw unta nga Cable Car Project nga magdugtong sa Mount Agad-Agad ug Buhanginan Hill sa sakop ning sa siyudad.

Matud pa, tinguha sa maong pagpa-unya na lamang sa proyekto ang paghatag og kahigayonan sa kagamhanan sa siyudad, ubos sa pamuno-an ni Mayor Lawrence Lluch Cruz, nga matutokan ang 495 Million Peso Water Expansion Project nga mas labaw’ng gikinahanglan sa katawhan sa atong sa pagkakaron.

Gitin-aw usab ni Konsehal Busico nga natapos na ang feasibility study sa cable car project ug nagpaabot na lamang kini sa implementasyon kung adunay makitang pundo.

Dugang pa usab, posibleng madungan sa water project ang cable car kung adunay motumaw nga mga pribadong grupo nga motanyag nga mopatuman niini pinaagi sa Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) o bond floatation scheme. (mta)

Sana, before they implement this kind of project, ayusin muna nila ang ciy hall. Mukhang deteriorating na hindi lamang ang building mismo kundi pati mga facilities lalo na ang CR. THE CITY HALL LOOKS LIKE A SICK MAN. isali na pati ang Tourism Office. Sira-sira na. Yong mga parke at mga bakod, kinalawang na at walang maintenance. Ni desenteng canteen WALA!

Sana, before they implement this kind of project, ayusin muna nila ang ciy hall. Mukhang deteriorating na hindi lamang ang building mismo kundi pati mga facilities lalo na ang CR. THE WHOLE AREA OF CITY HALL LOOKS LIKE A SICK MAN.

Kung ako lang ang masusunod. Iconvert nila ang City Hall into a museum and then transfer the city hall to another location. Total may proposed government center naman. Gawin din nila ang buong Buhanginan Hill into a park.

^^ And also, they should have an office that is very much adept with the necessary knowledge and backgrounds to implement that structure once the BOT contract is finished. An office that will have the capability to maintain and provide necessary personnel that knows the technology behind it and not to mention an office that would beautify the whole city hall complex as such system would become a "tourist" area.

Parking spaces should be provided that should also accommodate buses and other vehicles. Reconcreting of the road network of the city hall complex should also be done.

Even employees at city hall are already complaining about their dirty CR. Nakakahiya sa mga bisita lalo na sa mga foreigner n nag-iinterview ng mga job hunters. Compared to othr HUCs, Iligan Ciy Hall ang talagang kulilat.

Oo nga no. Pagkatapos, saka sila mag-isip tungkol sa cable car na yan. :ohno:

Referring to the obnoxious CR of our City Hall:

Ano ba ang ginagawa ng City General Services Office (CGSO) ng Iligan who is the main office that caters to those kind of services such as the "clean and green"? They are the one's who are into that aspect of the city hall which is to beautify aside from their main job which is to provide "bidding processes" for Purchase orders as well as providing the necessary services for the "procurement of materials" for several offices.

Nakakahiya naman yan, city hall ata yan and the major paperworks are always done there.

Hmmm... ask niyo kaya ang mga big bosses diyan who has the necessary "manpower" kasi sila ang may maraming taong napatrabaho coz they provide jobs for people who are close to them.

As usual, the typical "baho" system of our government offices are still prevailing! Ano na ba ang imahe ng ating bansa ngayon?! Wala na ata tayong nakikitang magandang pamamalakad!

Ewan ko lang ha, pero maganda naman ang maintenance sa umpisa ng current admin. Sabi ko nga sa previous posts ko na ginastahan ng malaki ang mga parke para maayos tingnan. Pero kalaunan, naging pabaya rin hanggang ganyan na ang sitwasyon.

hello thread 24

About sa Gmall overpass mga kaberks, according to my sister who lives in Tibanga mag brown out daw ang Tibanga tomorrow as well as Poblacion coz Gaisano will install the horizontal part of the "pedestrian overpass" at the A. Bonifacio Ave. (National Highway) tomorrow.

Thanks to all the forumers and visitors of this thread. :cheers:

The installation of the horizontal part of the 5th overpass is a good news pero yong brown out is a bad news. :bash:

congratulations to the new iligan city/lanao norte thread 24! :banana:

i had sent an e-mail to the robinsons management last march 11 to inquire if they have plans to consider our city as their next robinsons place here in mindanao in the near future after gensan... and here is the reply:

Dear Mr. kuspawix,

Further to your query about Iligan City, we regret to inform you that Iligan City
is not within our priority area for commercial development as of this time.

We appreciate your interest in our company.

Thank you.

wala pang column sa kabilang side, matagal pa yan..di pa nga season ang column sa Mall side..:)

^^Walang brownout ngayon so that means hindi natuloy ang installation ng bridge ng overpass. :banana:

^^ nagtataka din ako kasi sa kabila di pa natapos un at ilalagay na ang horizontal platform... baka nagkamali lang si ate ko. :)

congrats to all of us. Thread 234 na tayo. Ganda kasi ng mga tao at mababait dito kaya umabaot ng thread 24...Again congrats and more power

Chicken King was used to be a Solid Bank before, then they acquired by Metrobank and transfer to their location in iligan day inn..and now they're back..yung travel and tours ay ATM yan noon..

I doubt Madelicious will acquire the whole building. Iligan Medical Center College owns it. According to their website, it will be renamed IMCC-Annex once operational. They plan to utilized the building by putting up a Library, 2 Computer Laboratories, Mini-Hotel and Classrooms. General subjects in HRM and Information Technology courses are soon to be held in this building.

I heard that IMCC did not carry out their plan of acquiring the defunct hotel. Kumbaga, umatras.

lage gors, thats why we had a little argument with a certain businessman in my neighborhood considering that IMCC partially occupied the upper floors.:lol:...:)

I didn't know, IMCC has already occupied part of the building. :ohno:

congratulations to the 24th thread of Iligan City and Lanao de Norte...hope to see more beautiful photos and of course developments from my birthplace...

about kuspawix entry in the previous thread about PAL Express flying in Maria Cristina Airport,should be nice if this would come true...how nice it would be flying in directly to Iligan City...:)the reason is of course the safety/security within the airport and approach towards the runway. anyway i hope to see more updates about commercial operation in Maria Cristina Airport,and mr.boombox has been so kind enough giving updates even opening up a question in airlines thread here in SSC...Godspeed Iligan....

I have often heard of the " brownouts " in Iligan City and other areas. When you say " Brownout " are you talking about Low Voltage ( incnadescent lights appear brown instead of white ) or are you talking about no electricity at all ? Here, brownout means low voltage. When we speak of a " Blackout " here it means No voltage.

With the nearby hydro electric plant what is the reason for the frequent brownots I hear and read about there ? Fortunately I did not experience any of this during my visits.

You're right there Bob. But here in our place, it's a common thing not to distinguish between brownout from blackout in its real context. We used to believe that if there's an absence of electricity in a certain part of the city, it's called brownout but a total absence of power in the whole of the city, it's called blackout. Funny but it's true. :lol:

Thanks for the additional pics of Maze Nature Park. I really enjoyed going there. There are so many places to go, so many things to do and so many Iliganons to meet it is difficult to do all in a vitis or two, I'll be back !

Global Steel takes creditors to Singapore court to prevent declaration of default (http://mb.com.ph/articles/199711/global-steel-takes-creditors-singapore-court-prevent-declaration-default)
By LEE C. CHIPONGIAN

Global Steel Philippines Inc., formerly the National Steel Corp., has filed a complaint against its creditors in a Singapore court to stop them from declaring it in payment default.

Banking sources said the Singapore court has scheduled a hearing for the Global Steel complaint filed last December.

Its creditors include Land Bank of the Philippines, Metropolitan Bank & Trust Co., Philippine National Bank, Bank of Commerce, China Banking Corp., United Coconut Planters Bank and Rizal Commercial Banking Corp.

This is not the first time that the steel firm had been declared in default when in 2005, it stopped paying its creditors debt amounting to P12.25 billion.

Included in the steel firm’s restructuring program is the settlement of the local taxes in Iligan, which creditors wanted waived. However sources said the banks were close to reaching an agreement on the local taxes but needed to renegotiate it again because of the change in government after the local elections.

Global Steel's manufacturing operations were suspended in December. One of the reasons for the cessation of operations is the decrease in global demand for steel. The company is a principal supplier of flat products in the Philippines and other markets in South East Asia. Among its products are hot rolled coils, hot rolled plates, cold rolled coils (fullhard, annealed) and tinplates. It produces two million tons of steel a year.

in other visayan rural areas, tricycle are commonly called as "pedicab"..they used to call it from generation to generation.coz it started as "pedicab" before the arrival of motorcycles to power up the whole cab, and nothing changed...i heard the term "brownout" since my existence..that is what we used to say if there is no power at all.. when the electricity is very low, simply we call it "low voltage"..mao nay atong naandan..:lol::lol:..anad-anad ra na..:lol::lol:

Another instance of "anad-anad lang" is the use of "gramo" and "kilo" in public markets. Just imagine buying "duha ka gramo" nga ahos or sibuyas bombay where in fact it's 200 grams. But it doesn't matter at all. It's what we call real Pinoy style. Walang ganyan sa esteyts. :lol:

ICWS subling nagpahibalo kalabot sa pagkawala sa agas sa tubig karong Marso 23

Maapektuhan niini nga pagkawala sa tubig ang pipila ka bahin sa Barangay Buru -un, Ditucalan, Ma. Cristina, Sta. Elena, Tomas Cabili, Tubod, Mahayahay, Ubaldo Laya, Poblacion, Tibanga, San Miguel, Villaverde, Sto. Rosario, Saray, Bagong Silang, Santiago ug Tambacan. Mipasabot si Engr. Jaime Sato, hepe sa Engineering and Programming Division sa ICWS, nga pagahimoon nila ang maong declogging tungod kay posibleng adunay nakasampong karon nga mga materyales sa maong mga linya, nga mao’y usa sa hinungdan sa pagkunhod sa pressure sa tubig.

magpundo jud daan kay dugay pa makabalik ang supply sa tubig

Another instance of "anad-anad lang" is the use of "gramo" and "kilo" in public markets. Just imagine buying "duha ka gramo" nga ahos or sibuyas bombay where in fact it's 200 grams. But it doesn't matter at all. It's what we call real Pinoy style. Walang ganyan sa esteyts. :lol:

how about this word "capon"..we use this word for veterinary practice-romoval of testicles of hogs and dogs..this is not the proper term to be used to..caponization is one way of removing organs of chicken or birds or any class avis..pero ang ato "akong baboy gikapnan daan arun kusog mudako"..or ang akong iro gikapnan kay arun mutambok"..unaware that the term capon is for chicken or birds and "castration" is for veterinary use like dogs and hogs..:lol::lol::lol:ang pangutana, unsay binisaya sa "castration'?..:lol::lol::lol:

anad-anad lang..:lol::lol:

ICWS subling nagpahibalo kalabot sa pagkawala sa agas sa tubig karong Marso 23

Subling mipahibalo ang buhatan sa Iligan City Waterworks System (ICWS) sa publiko nga adunay mahitabong pagkawala sa supply sa tubig sugod sa tungang gabii sa Marso 22 hangtud sa alas 5:00 sa hapon sa Marso 23.


Sa nasayran gikan ni ICWS Manager Christine Milagros Orbe, epekto kini sa pagahimoong declogging sa 18 inches nga main pipeline gikan sa Ditucalan ngadto sa Nunucan ug Camague Highway .

Maapektuhan niini nga pagkawala sa tubig ang pipila ka bahin sa Barangay Buru -un, Ditucalan, Ma. Cristina, Sta. Elena, Tomas Cabili, Tubod, Mahayahay, Ubaldo Laya, Poblacion, Tibanga, San Miguel, Villaverde, Sto. Rosario, Saray, Bagong Silang, Santiago ug Tambacan. Mipasabot si Engr. Jaime Sato, hepe sa Engineering and Programming Division sa ICWS, nga pagahimoon nila ang maong declogging tungod kay posibleng adunay nakasampong karon nga mga materyales sa maong mga linya, nga mao’y usa sa hinungdan sa pagkunhod sa pressure sa tubig. (boy decena)

ahak... dili napud ko ka pataka ug sablig sa tubig ani ugma... :lol:

I feel it is easy to say "I hope" than to say "I believe", that after this declogging the water pressure will be back to what it's used to be. :ohno:

World Water Day pa naman ngayon tapos walang tubig ang ilang lugar sa city :ohno:

I MISS TIMOGA

in other visayan rural areas, tricycle are commonly called as "pedicab"..they used to call it from generation to generation.coz it started as "pedicab" before the arrival of motorcycles to power up the whole cab, and nothing changed...i heard the term "brownout" since my existence..that is what we used to say if there is no power at all.. when the electricity is very low, simply we call it "low voltage"..mao nay atong naandan..:lol::lol:..anad-anad ra na..:lol::lol:



Ayyyy! Bonggah!

Tama ka ateh, kung sila pa weather-weather lang yan. :banana::banana::banana:
