  • The Crowded City
    The AQUINO MANAGEMENT Of The PRESIDENCY \ THE CROWDED CITY Published by the Presidential Management Staff Office of the President Manila, Philippines June 1992 "The People did not vote me to the presidency to take charge of the garbage. That is true of every government in the world. But it is equally true that the presidency must be concerned with the problems that affect the welfare of the citizenry .. We now look to people to transform Metro Manila from a dying and dirty Metropolis to a vibrant, clean and healthy home of about 8 million Metro Manilans." President Corazon C. Aquino Meeting With Metro Manila Barangay Officials And Metro Aides Heroes Hall September 18, 1990 2 There was edifice frenzy in those days of the mid- and late 70s. Several five-star hotels were rushed simultaneously in Metro Manila. The government and the business sector were expecting waves of visitors ranging from international bankers, financial analysts and their wives, film producers and stars, and investors of all shapes and sizes. The cities must put on a show that they were bankable. The then First Lady and Metro Manila Governor Imelda Marcos probably thought, too, that her City of Man must put on that cosmopolitan air. As her entourage knifed through the monstrous Manila traffic surveying the probable routes of the visitors, she noticed the colonies of squatters along the esteros of Tramo in Pasay and on the huge lots of Paco and San Andres Bukid in Manila. They were such an eyesore. Poor Manilans, she must have thought. They must be saved from such stench and ugliness.

Therefore, as early as the dawning of civilization, recreation was regarded basic to man.

Towards the close of the days of empires in 1898, the Americans reached our shores as the next colonial master. Manila͛s cold reception over their scheming and victorious showing was reciprocated positively by the Yankees prodigious effort at motivating the city folks to a new way of lifestyle, much different from the antiquated acquiescence we grew with.
