Hoy!! mga kandidatos nga magapadalagan sa ma-abot nga election malu-oy man kamo sa aton nga ciudad!! Mga wala sang huya nga mga kandidatos dira hagan-hagana man ninyo ang KUPIT sa kuarta sang tawo!! Ang budget nga para sa City Hall INDI man ninyo pagkawata!!Reply Marcos C. saysApril 25, 2008 at 4:06 amThis is the old designs, btw. There is a new design released.Reply Sporty saysApril 25, 2008 at 1:09 amSee the New Government Center of Bacolod City, OK, ang ila mga politicos “nagapamalandong” anay kay guina palabi guid ang husto nga pondasyon sang ila nga city hall building. We have TO DO the same thing, OK. Kon may sobra ang budget, ti kadto sa Roberto’s kag mag kaon pansit guisado. Thanks : )Reply Sporty saysApril 25, 2008 at 1:00 amWe don’t need to keep the old city hall building. That building is starting to fall apart and there’s no way that the city can restore it. It’s a waste of money if they do. Thanks that the present mayor decided to build a new one. When, it comes to “kupit”, ipa-iway anay ina. Unahon ta anay nga mahitso sang husto ang proyekto. Husto kag iksakto nga pag pundar sang building, or else basi bala after 10 years may litik na. That’s all for now. Cheers! : )Reply Sporty saysApril 25, 2008 at 12:53 amI like the design, no problem with me. The design is a combination of modern and neo-classical art. What we need is at least 9 story building of City Hall. Cheers! : )Reply alex saysFebruary 6, 2008 at 11:19 pmit’s only the place different with you iha from us here..say for example if you’re in new zealand hilamon na ang ginakaon mo? (like the baka’s there) you’re still a human who eats everything..habon lang siguro ang wala gina kaon sang tao…so what’s the big deal with the ginamos..bisan diin ka nga putok putokan sang kalibutan may ara na…sa winchester ka pa lang gani ka kadto kag nag pondo da . kadto ka singapore,hongkong,thailand or in every chinese resto in europe, middle east and U.S. ang kangkong to special pa nga menu sa ila to ho! gusto mo paka’ pa e…Reply marilyn saysFebruary 6, 2008 at 8:37 pmNothing’s wrong with world class sophisticated and modern buildings. We need it , the more buildings, more work for our Kasimanwas. My only suggestion is that, why don’t we keep the old buildings specially the ones built in 18th and 19 century, restore it the way it was built before. Basta wla lng gtulo, kag wla buslot and walls kag kislap salog is more interesting. Where I live we have a place called OLD TOWN, Winchester. Most of the buildings were made in 19th century and a few in 18th century. Lots of people love to visit because of its historical value. Does any young generations of this days in the Philippines care about the historical value of a place, building or anything? Just asking and correct me if I am wrong. What can I say i like antique looking stuff . CIAO!
