It's called e-commerce. Supermarkets are outdated.

in Europe malls are a bit islanded, all the action still happens in the city, as invaraibly you not only get the shopping options but a far larger array of eating and entertainment, culture, leisure, drinking, parks etc. all in the one centre.

Neither does the weather really get in the way, unlike SE Asia/ southern China which is prohibitively humid and hot compared to the air conditioned mega malls. The same applies to Canada or Russia, where its so much colder in the winter months.

WBJ is not that large by even Sydney or Australian standards. It's simply a slightly more upmarket westfield in reality.

why do Pinoys think that they have the BEST in everything? Apparently the word humility, humble does not exist in their vocabulary? It's cool to be proud of your country n all but after a while all the arrogance kinda gets old...
