NAIA modernization privatization on track

It is more fun criticizing

The NAIA modernization turn over to SMC is on track.   SMC paid the up front P30 b fee for the take over.   All ready the visible sign of the take over is the increase of parking fee, especially  the overnight parking fee.  Some observation:

    1.  Netizens have remarked that this is a case vs privatization -  fees go up as in toll fees for rexpressway.   The terminal fee are expectted to go up as well.

    2.  The parking lots are noticeably empty because of increased fees.

   3.  ADB, Sec Jaime Bautista SMC have been called out for the sudden quantum jump in fees.

Is the privatization of the terminal beneficial for many?  Is it good for all?  Is in in accordance with the announced mission of SMC

Businesses are not primarily for profit but for the good of many, as service to many

There was the much vaunted Pasig River Clean up project several years back.  But I passed by JP Rizal in Makati and I was up close and personal with the Pasig River.  The water looked black, smelled like sewer and garbage was floating at the river.  Perhaps, the dwellers along the Pasig River are just too much uncooperativeness that is why they continue to dump garbage and what you have to Pasig River.

A city with river and bay near it (with body of water) means good feng shui.  It means life and progress.  A stinking garbage full river and bay means ill health and bad fortune for its people.

Can we work together to clean Pasig River
