Yuletide Joy for Our Elders: Christmas Giveaway for Seniors 2025 in Parang

 


Despite the challenges currently impacting the nation, a select number of cities and their leaders are effectively serving their constituents, particularly those in affected sectors. Their initiatives significantly alleviated the populace's frustrations with the national government in anticipation of the forthcoming holiday season.

 

Marikina, for example, held numerous activities to highlight the city's culture, tradition, and innate fortitude with the Marikina Shoe Bazaar 2025, the Toyota Food Festival at the Marikina Town Center, and the 'Banchettos' in various parts of the city, and just today, December 20, 2025, the city government gave away Christmas grocery gifts to its senior citizens courtesy of Marikina's esteemed mayor, Maan Teodoro, and congressman and husband, Marcy Teodoro.

 

Mayor Maan could've attended the seniors' Christmas grocery gifts distribution event, but left the task to her trusted administration and staff to address more pressing issues affecting her constituents in the Tumana area.

 

Just the same, no senior citizen left Parang Elementary School in tears, as everyone was given their Christmas grocery goodie bags.

Kudos to Mayor Maan Teodoro and staff.

Built a Nation, Abandoned by It: The Silent Battle of the Jeepney Pioneer

Image
Francisco Motors Corporation  (FMC) is one of the country's pioneering jeepney builders. Over the years, FMC transitioned from refurbishing war-era jeeps to designing its iconic models, including its modern electric jeepney launched around 2018. FMC’s modern electric jeep costs around ₱985,000/unit— far cheaper than government-endorsed modern jeepneys priced between ₱1.3 and 3 million. 85% locally built (body, motor, chassis); batteries still imported, but for the first 1000 units only. These modern jeeps are designed with urban routes in mind, offering a 150 km range (approximately five trips) and utilizing 50 kWh batteries, which can be charged via the CCS2 standard. As add-on options, the package includes modern features: AC, CCTV, GPS, cashless fares, wheelchair ramps for PWDs, speed limiters, and emergency exits—while keeping the classic jeepney aesthetic. Although FMC produces affordable, culturally resonant units, several obstacles hinder its inclusion in the governmen...

Bakit Napakaraming Bakanteng Condominium Units sa Bansa?

  Sobrang natuwa ang mga developers noong kasagsagsagan ng Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGO), kung kailan nagdagsaan ang mga online na pasugalan at online sex rings sa bansa mula China. Nangunguna ang mga Chinese sa pagbili at pagrenta ng mga condominium units. Kabilaan ang nagsitayuang mga condominium buildings hindi lamang sa Metro Manila kundi na rin sa iba't ibang bahagi ng Pilipinas.   Mula sa pre-pogo period na P1.8 million ay tumaas ang mga presyo ng bawat room o unit na isang pad, isang kuwarto, o dalawang kuwarto sa average na P5 million.   Ngunit ipinatigil ni Pangulong Ferdinand Bongbong Marcos Jr ang mga pogo operations sa bansa noong Hulio 2024, at sa pag-alis ng mga pogo operators at mga trabahador, biglang nabawasan ang mga bumibili ng condo units.   Mahigit-kumulang P300 thousand ang hinihinging down payment ng mga ahente ng real estate bukod na sa "murang" reservation fee na P25 -P50,000 at P18-P50,000 monthly rent-to-own charges bago pa m...

Affordable Prefab Homes for Every Filipino Dream

 Like everything else, every company starts small and simple. This pioneering firm, which began modestly, was inspired by shipping containers—thanks to the father—and improved through clear ideas and innovation by the son. Mr. Christopher Kyle Malig , CEO and President, leads this exceptional and valuable venture, along with a team of professional architects and engineers, including the general manager, department heads, and skilled workers, who all helped create this once-in-a-lifetime project. Each person played a vital role in helping the company provide the best possible services. The move was a significant boost for Filipinos both locally and abroad, offering new hope for affordable homebuilding among kababayans, and foreign expat retirees alike , starting in August 2015. The company is fully Filipino-owned. As urbanization continues and housing demand exceeds supply in the Philippines, alternative building solutions like SmartHouse Philippines are stepping up to transf...
