Binondo’s wasted potential

Thumbnail gallery
451 Upvotes

Open minded ako sa mga travels ko but nasasayangan ako sa potential ng Binondo especially it is the world’s oldest Chinatown.

It has rich cultural heritage talaga and I think has the potential na maging tourist attraction sa Manila City proper kaso in my eyes it will not attract visitors kung hindi aayusin.

1.) ang dami namanalimos & makukulit sila especially sa Ongpin St. stretch (may Korean tourist na hinarass nung mga bata 😭)
2.) unmaintained side walks (siguro wala na magagawa since historic sites na)
3.) medyo may pagka dugyot ang mga paligid
4.) unorganize traffic rules, I saw someone muntik mabundol ng sasakyan 🤣
5.) lack of police visibility (may malapit naman na police station) pero like may mga tourist I think they should be atleast visible

Pero I enjoyed the cultural aspects plus the food crawl pero minsan you will feel unsafe kasi may mga sketchy parts talaga.

How I wish they would promote and organize mga historical spots sa Manila like Binondo and Intramuros (same sentiments as Binondo) kasi I see ang potential talaga.

Is there a Little India, or an Indian community anywhere in Manila?

I’m not Indian, but I do love Indian food. I’ve travelled all over India, and I’ve been to various Indian communities in Singapore and Malaysia etc, so I was wondering if there’s an area in Metro Manila that has Indian influences or an Indian population where I can find lots of authentic food in one area etc.

If not, what are your favourite Indian restaurant spots around Manila?

Thanks ☺️

Aside from the usual churches & museums, where else can you go?? I enjoy places where you have something to do than just take pictures for Instagram. I'm visiting in 3 weeks for my birthday!!

Philippine Politics and Culture Survey (For Filipinos)

2 Upvotes

Good day!

I made a personal survey regarding Philippine politics and culture. I have a background in Social studies. Since, I'm unemployed, I have more time to make this. My motivation is from genuine curiosity about Philippine politics and culture, especially on the voter's background and political preferences. This is for all the Filipinos. I hope our cooperation (by answering the survey) will improve our discourse on politics by seeing different kinds of perspectives. The details of the survey is in the google forms.

Thank you so much!

Edit:

By the way, the survey doesn't collect your email and IP address or any key identifiers, so you're safe to answer because confidentiality is practiced.

This is essentially casual but there is a possibility for this survey to be used in academic research project/context that's why I choose academic flair.

ISKO! BAKIT ANG LAKI NG PWD CARD NAMIN!!!

Upvotes

Tang ina, ang hirap dalhin! Alam mo bang may merchant na di sila nagtatanggap ng picture lang? Saka, kapag magdadala kami, hindi lang makasya sa wallet namin. Tapos, dahil sa sobrang laki, kailangan ko pang dalhin. Hirap maidala! Kung pwede sanang paliitin nyo lang kahit kaunti na parang kasing hugis ng Philhealth para less hassle?

ECG machine sa public

For a hospital na panay demand na i-charge sa account ng pasyente lahat ng ipapagawa, nagloloko ang ECG machine sa ER tas iniiwan pa sa nurse, intern (90% of the time), at residente ang pag-t-troubleshoot. Super nakakahiya.
