The world is filled with stories of opportunities resulting from adversities.
There is one report that gives me hope Manila’s landscape would improve after the destruction caused by Pedring.
A Facebook entry mentioned that many of those ugly, multi-colored lamps along Roxas Blvd have been destroyed.
That means, the city government would be allotting millions of pesos again to have Roxas Boulevard lighted. I hope former Tourism secretary Gemma Cruz, who advises Manila Mayor Alfredo Lim on historical and cultural matters, recommends a better- designed lamps that reflect the beauty and character of Manila.
