MERGED: South Road Properties (SRP) News, Issues, and Developments

[mannyamador]

but as of the moment, the city government is still on its marketing phase, and about to finish some phases of the project..thus it is justifiable to close the SRP to the public.

But in the meantime, isn't the public inconvenienced by the closure of the SRP, and millions of pesos wasted in fuel costs because of the longer route vehicles have to pass? Will opening the SRP now endanger this so-called "marketing phase"? Also, why can't the lights be installed on the SRP during this "marketing phase"? Will the thievery suddenly stop when the "marketing phase" is over?

The continued closure looks more like the arrogant mayor's way of extorting political compliance from the local government of Talisay.

the people of Cebu have the reason to get enrage on the dirty tactics of the Gullas's to take part on the SRP project..as a result they are jeopardizing the release of titles/patents causing the cebu city government to loss millions a month in loan interest payments.

closing the SRP was a very good move by Tom. it only shows that he is a good administrator and has political will. of course, people cannot help painting political color on it but in an objective point of view, we may not be agreeable with what he did but i believe what he did was right.

reason?! refer to the previous threads.

I don't think that any of the reasons cited above are justify not putting lights on the SRP now (the excuse for closing it at night).

1. Thievery of fixtures is not necessarily going to stop once the marketing phase is over.
2. Lack of security is an excuse; if they can't secure it now, how can they secure it later when there will
more for thieves to steal, and more people to victimize?
3. The area can be marketed even while traffic passes through it.

I've read that the SRP daw has:

1.) Underground electrical system (just like in the Ayala Business Park);
2.) Ready to use broadband cables;

I've noticed electrical boxes too along the sidewalks of the Coastal Highway. It's similar to the one we see in highways abroad.

.. yummy. thank you arnoldsa for such wonderful pictures. Sights of progress, i call them. Leasing is better than selling, since you'll get a monthly payment. Selling is a dead investment.

... i pity those caught on a motorbike, they have no helmet, and their plate number is well-defined, hehehe. corny joke,

[iloveyou4ever]

wala man helmet katong naka motor? hmmp
