Old Metro Manila


Recommended Posts

I'm in awe. Metro Manila wow!. Especially the colored ones. It really highlights the beauty and cleanliness. I mean I don't think Metro Manila is perfect back then.

 

But judging by the photos, everything seems to be in order. The pavement is clean, no sidewalk vendors, no dugyot streets, there's an air of developed metropolis but at the same time it looks and feels healthy.

 

Now, I'll go as far away from the Metro as possible to have a peace of mind to enjoy and relax. I wonder how we got to this uber-dugyot level that we have now. Now normal folks have filthy streets and criminals roaming around. Back then all social classes got to enjoy the Metro, now our kababayans in the lower economic class only have the malls to look forward to (bihira pa nga sa iba0, as far as unwinding a bit and getting away from our crazy streets

 

Nakakapanghinayang. I think it would take a cultural revolution of some sort for us to go back to this state again.

Na miss ko ang pamamasyal sa dating Avenida at Escolta nung chikiting pa lang ako, ang tawag pa namin sa lugar na yun dati ay Downtown. Pag sinabi ng parents ko pasyal at kain sa Downtown punta na kami Avenida at Escolta nuon. Di pa marumi at nakakatakot ang lugar na iyon nuon.
