General Santos Projects and Constructions

[Fahdingding]

General Santos City has 3 6 lanes roads

1. Pioneer Ave with center island plus huge sidewalks and parking spaces in each corner

2. Acharon Boulevard with Center Island with Sidewalk in the right Portion

3. Santiago Blvd with sidewalk... to be expanded soon with the entrance of SM

these 3 roads are wider than the National Hiway... In most cities, the National Highway is one of the most developed Part of a City like CDO, Iligan, Butuan, ZAmboanga, Koronadal, Tacurong, Cotabato, etc. but in Gensan, the National Highway area is not that developed, in fact there are plenty of huge open spaces for potential development especially on the National Highway to apOPONG AREA.

Anyway, many devts now in gensan is Happening on the NAtional Highway....
like what?

how about the ordinary streets? compare to other cities?

Gensan is within the TOP 10 income generating cities in the Philippines

Gensan also is now a Member of BIR Elite Billionaires CLub - cities who are able to Generate billion pesos of revenues, Members in Mindanao DAVAO, CDO, ZAMBOANGA and GENSAN...

one of the TOP 15 most POPULOUS CITIES in the PHIL with 529,000 plus inhabitants...

that are some of my findings on gsc...

Recommendations

1. creation of a congressional district with 2 representatives - it is a constitutional mandate.

2. Improvement of the City's Tourism Development Plan - ithink gsc is the only highly - urbanized city in Mindanao that lack or developed tourism destination despite of vast potentials. e.g QUEEN TUNA PARK

3. Establishment of a City Archives and MUSEUM.. gsc lacks that... and mprovements on the city library.

4. More Hospitals in the Industrial Area (e.g Calumpang - Tambler - Labangal Area) all 6 hospital of the city are on the CBD.

5. road expansion like the laurel AVE and BULA ROAD and concretization of Sidewalk like in Santiago and NATIONAL HIWAY.

how much did zamboanga earned po? how about GSC? n cdo?

[Fahdingding]

GSC has been able to realized, i dont know the exact figures, 1.08 Billion according to BIR.... CDO with 1.08 also but with a realized income of 1.5 billion this year, zamboanga also gitna ng cdo at gensan.. while davao is far ahead with almost 6 billion..

wow 6 billion according to BIR to? kc sa COA: 3.2 billion ang net income ng Davao City but still its the highest income outside Metro Manila.. di naman pala ganun kalaki ang gap ng income ng CdO, zambo at Gensan, so mag iiba din ang figures by 2015 once mag generate na ng income ang SM and Rob & etc..

[Fahdingding]

YES, what i have found out in these cities is that their cbds are well developed.. in gensan, di ganon ka developed but still it is earning at par with the cities of zam andcdo... gsc has still plenty of room for improvements.... cdo, zamboanga and davao is more progressive and beautiful than gensan but like what i have said, gsc has a lot of room for improvements and ryt now we can sense that the city is improving and booming..... and other cities in Mindanao most notably dipolog, dapitan and pagadian in the zamboanga peninsula.

i see,,, Tnx...

TAXIs cannot thrive here in gensan maliit lang naman ang gensan's cbd eh... mahal din ang taxi kaya humina dito gensan.. malakas pa rin tricycle at jeep dito kasi mura at madaanan lahat halos sa gensan... KCC will always be a competitive mall in gensan despite the entry of both rob and SM... Gaisano ang mawala kung nagkaganun if di nila iimprove ang mall..kulang ng boutiques at spaces for rent pati cinema wala na....

what i missed in gsc is KIMBALL Plaza... yun ang pinakamalakas na mall here in gensan dati.. syang lang wala na.... KCC is the biggest mall in Region 12

[mrboy]

with the entry of robinsons and sm, more investments will pour into the city... Go Gensan!!

tapos yung KCC may "SM feel" pa, Palafox din kasi yan so medyo may similarity sa ibang mga Palafox designed SM like SM davao sa interiors..

pati design nung stairs eh parang copy-paste from SM sa pagkakatanda ko (last time I was there was back in 2005)

[Fahdingding]

Ang NCCC kaya? when kaya cla mag put up ng mall sa gensan... if ever maganad dun sa lupa ng kimball along national highway harap ng emcor hiway...hehehehehehe

[Fahdingding]

I notice the progress of Gensan. Economically, Gensan is actively attached itself from Davao nowadays. The coming of national brands, Robinsons and SM, is just the beginning of the city's rapid progression. Hope these two big national brands will definitely pursue their plan in the city.

Anyway, narelocate na ba most of the government offices in Gensan as the city is becoming the regional center in SOCCKSARGEN?

[WawaY[625]]

KCC + Robinsons + SM should be enough for now considering GenSan's (wala nako gi include ang Gaisano kay murag dili man mall ang dating hehe)

if I were NCCC, and i consider nako ang competition, I would concentrate kung asa ko kusog which is ang grocery so a Hypermart with some areas for retail (like the planned NCCC Hypermart sa Panacan) would be perfect


maayo nang dili kaayo daghan ang malls pero bibo and ma sustain ang kita nila (besides, ug mu-sorry na lang ko kay PengHok hehe migo bitaw mi since kids pa, dili man kaayo nice ang NCCC Mall hehe sinehan ra nindot and ang grocery)

Robinsons is u/c and yung SM (according sa insiders from SSC as well as from SM's advertisements) eh tuloy na rin, target opening is by 2011 kasabay ng SM Lanang..so medyo sure na ni nga proposal ug dili nang chika chika lang hehe)
