Maganda kasi track record ni Gina Lopez. Yung La Mesa Eco Park at rehabilitation ng estero de Paco at yung ginagawa nila ngayon sa estero de San Miguel.

May b*yag yung ale para patinuin at ipatupad ang kagandahan sa kapaligiran di gaya ng mga nasa puwesto na dapat gumagawa nito. At pinakaimportante, di gumugol ng napakalaking pera, maganda sa mata, walang mga higanteng gansa na mga palamuti at walang malaking litrato ng mukha ni Ms. Lopez sa mga proyektong pinasukan niya.

si Gina Lopez kasi ay private sector... kaya mas maganda ang result... and I think they're doing that as a charity work....

BAKIT ang karamihan ng GOVERNMENT PROJECT ay POOR QUALITY, tasteless ang design color combination ng Building, landscaping??? etc. BAKIT? marami namn tayong magagaling na Architects, Engineers di ba para laging Baduy ang outcome ng mga Project nila except siguro Makati kaya nga marami kaming OFW dahil sobra na sa Pinas. Sana maitanong nga Press ito sa Government.

Tanong lang Po!

Dahil hindi ang mga Professional Designers ang nagde-design.
Ang mga Politicians ang nasusunod.

Baduy [ba`dui] is a local term for government public projects./ see it for yourself and that's the best definition.

O hayan, Tinagalog ko na.
Sana naman lalo pa itong maunawaan, maintindihan at nang mabigyan ng malalim pa na kahulugan

I hope that Guingona's Design Council of the Philippines senate bill will be enacted so that the tackiness and kitsch revolutionized by our dearest government officials will be put to an ultimate end. BTW, the whole stretch of Manila Bay is already fenced off. The repair and renovation of Baywalk is being undertaken by the DPWH.

Manila Bay Combined Tourism Zone


Image showing tourist attractions along the bay area. Are there any other attractions missed that are worth adding?

Mission Possible? – A Manila Bay safe for “recreational swimming” by 2016

EARL VICTOR L. ROSERO, GMA News January 27, 2012 5:52pm

Quote:
At the sidelines of the Global Conference on Land-Ocean Connections, which ended Friday in Pasig City, Environment Secretary Ramon Paje said the government will strive to make the coastal waters of the Manila Bay fit for swimming before President Benigno Aquino III leaves office in 2016.

Paje admitted the goal is “so difficult to attain” but to restore the waters of Manila Bay to “recreational water” quality levels is the mandate from the Supreme Court, which, Paje said, ruled in 2008 on a case originally filed by concerned bay residents.

In the December 18, 2008 ruling penned by SC Associate Justice Presbitero Velasco, the high court specified that the bay's waters must be restored to and maintained at “SB level” or Class B sea water as defined in Water Classification Tables under DENR Administrative Order No. 34, so that its bathing waters will be “fit for swimming, skin-diving, and other forms of contact recreation.”

It's a very daunting task indeed - but possible pa rin naman. They're making progress - let me quote another part of the same article:

Quote:
The most recent water sample from Luneta shows that in the third quarter of last year, fecal coliform level was at 79,000 most probable number (MPN) per 100 milliliters. The standard is 200 MPN/100 ml. The Navotas sample indicated a much higher concentration of 202,000 MPN/100 ml.

The year-before figure for Luneta was mind-boggling: 3,336,333 MPN/100 ml. Yes. That's 3.3 million! For Navotas, it was 267,000 MPN/100 ml.
Let's be positive!

yeah, kaya yan. Kaohsiung's rivers were also very polluted nung di pa masyadong mayaman ang Taiwan nung 1990's. I think this is part of the pain any developing nations go through. as a nation becomes more developed, mas educated na rin mga tao at syempre mas sosyal na rin kaya ayaw na nagdudumi kung saan-saan
