SM Group plans to destroy the GSIS Manila Bldg for SM Manila Annex

[rubberr_ducky]

It's quite a mess already today. Kung anu-ano nang nandun- restos, tiangges, rental bicycles, etc... Nababoy na.

Pres. Quezon must be turning in his grave.

IIRC, another Quezon legacy, the Quezon Institute ("Q.I.") in E. Rodriguez, QC was also eyed by the SM group back in the 90s. They backed off after the attempt stirred up public opinion against them.

MLQ shouldn't bother turning his grave kasi mas gusto niya ang Pinas na pinapatakbo ng mga Pilipino kesa ng mga dayuhan

Boldface mine. Ano tatang, naalala mo na?

Bakit, ano ba ang ibig sabihin ng MORE HERITAGE BUILDINGS? Kung ang gobyerno magtatayo pa ng dagdag na heritage buildings - wala namang trabajong madaragdag ... kung may common sense ka, nakuha mo ito....

Sirain na kaya nag Malacanang, tayuan ng SM o condominium ng SMDC, tutal wala namang kwenta mga taong tumitira dyan, hahaha, mag-rent na lang ng office space ang mga nasa gobyerno para tipid sa maintenance at cost cutting pa.

Mas maraming trabahong magagawa yan, hahaha...

More SLIPPERY SLOPE drivel ....

The topic is about a heritage building that is about to be brought down, not one that is about to be constructed.

Besides, you don't normally build structures with the purpose of creating a heritage building in mind. Your descendants will decide what becomes heritage buildings.

Since you seem to be clueless with Tagalog, I'll re-state my point in English - THE STARVING MASSES DON'T REALLY GIVE MUCH OF A HOOT WITH HERITAGE BUILDINGS....

Losing in the angle that you brought up and then bringing up another point. Palusot na naman. Typical. Nasan na ulit 'yung mga itatayong bagong heritage sites?

They don't give much of a hoot with heritage buildings. So? We do. We are citizens of this republic as well. We are very much entitled to our own opinion, and it is in our opinion that there has to be balance between city preservation and mall construction.

heritage = new/ propose/ prospect?

You are of course entitled to your opinion.

But it is too bad for your snotty ilustrado cause because the starving masses OUTNUMBER you. Democracy is ONE PERSON = ONE VOTE remember?

For one who earlier said that man does not live with bread alone when the acquisition of a painting for $120 million was discussed, you're one to talk about the so-called "snotty ilustrado."

OnTopic:

Anyway, it cannot be helped. Some old sites will have to go in the name of capitalism and modernization. Sana na lang time will not come when we have moved the nation out of poverty only to find out that the things that remind us about our country's past are long gone.

COMMON SENSE #1: hindi naman Pilipino iyong bumili ng $119 million na painting, e.... kung Pinoy iyon MALAKING SCANDALO dahil maraming Pinoy na naghihirap...

COMMON SENSE #2: Hindi problema iyan kapag yumaman ang bansang Pinas. Madaling MAGPAGAWA ULI na tulad noong vintage design. Until then, atupagin muna ang mga nagugutom na mamamayan, saka na ang mga PALAMUTI....

Hehe hindi lamang Pinoy ang mga naghihirap. Ang point is maraming tao ang naghihirap at nagugutom, regardless of nationality. Anyway, wala naman akong issue doon. Just pointing out your inconsistencies.

Ito na naman tayo sa pagpapagawa ng heritage sites.

Hindi lamang po 'yung disenyo ang issue dito kung hindi 'yung kaakibat na kasaysayan na nakatali dun sa mga building. The building in question is no Taj Mahal, but just imagine kung i-eemploy natin ang parehong pananaw sa bawat heritage building sa bansa natin. Kung ang Taj Mahal, ipapagiba 'yun para tayuan ng mall, then years later magpatayo ulit ng structure na kaparehong-kapareho ng Taj Mahal. Sa palagay mo same pa rin ang value ng dalawa?

Hindi 'yan basta palamuti. Ala-ala po 'yan ng nakaraan ng bansa natin (or namin, hindi ko alam kung Filipino pa rin ang citizenship mo ). Ala-ala 'yan ng nakaraan mo.

Furthermore, historical spots are attractive to tourists. O ayan, may economic value din pala sila?

Iyong pong mga ALA-ALANG sinasabi ninyo ay para lamang sa mga BUSOG. Ang mga taong gutom walang ala-ala kundi ang paghanap ng susunod na makakain. Ganoon talaga, kapag mas marami ang gutom sa mga busog, ini-isang tabi ang mga ala-ala....

Kaya nga sinasabi namin na dapat may BALANSE, hindi ba? Paulit-ulit lang tayo. Nabanggit ko na rin ang economic value ng mga ala-ala na 'yan.

Wala namang nagsabing GIGIBAIN lahat ng heritage buildings kundi iyong mga humihirit ng SLIPPERY SLOPE... pati raw Banaue rice terraces gigibain para tayuan ng SM mall....
