Having attended Christmas bazaars inside Alabang Hills Village myself many times in the past, I anticipate that there will be a lot of sellers who will collectively offer a lot of options to shoppers such as clothes, handcrafted materials, home décor, footwear, accessories, toys, food and beverages, and many other things that can make good gifts to give with Christmas in mind.

The Alabang Hills Village Association (AHVA) first announced the early Christmas bazaar through its website with a message aimed at the village residents. Alabang Hills residents were given 15 days to register as bazaar sellers/vendors.

Sponsorship packages – On September 16, the AHVA announced that it is searching for bazaar partners and they offered four partnership packages with varying rates. The three highest packages include sponsor booths, mentions in event circulars, display of tarpaulins and more. For transparency, look at the image below and pay attention to the details.

The Bahay Pag-asa Muntinlupa City is a 24-hour institution for the rehabilitation of children who are in conflict with the law.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

Mayor Ruffy Biazon signed an ordinance establishing the Bahay Pag-asa Muntinlupa City, a 24-hour institution for the rehabilitation of children in conflict with the law (CICL).

Muntinlupa Ordinance 2026-133, passed by the City Council, institutionalizes the Bahay Pag-asa Muntinlupa City as a juvenile justice welfare and rehabilitation center, setting the system, protocols, and management of the facility.

Under the local law, the center will be managed by the city government’s Social Services Department (SSD), providing short-term residential care and rehabilitation for CICL who are awaiting court disposition of their cases or transfer to other agencies or jurisdictions.

The facility will also offer rehabilitation services “under a structured therapeutic environment with the end view of reintegrating them into their families and communities as socially functioning individuals.”

Physical mobility of residents may be restricted pending resolution of their court cases.

Under Muntinlupa Ordinance 2024-280, or the City Child Protection Policy Ordinance, Bahay Pag-asa is mandated to formulate its own child protection policy for children below 15, or those above 15 but not more than 18 years old, “who have been charged in court or are undergoing trial for the commission of a crime, and are currently under the rehabilitation and diversion program of the SSD through Bahay Pag-asa, or are otherwise undergoing a community intervention program.”

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, do you think the Bahay Pag-asa Muntinlupa City will create positive results socially?

Muntinlupa City Mayor Laments Dumping of Trash into Drainage Systems

Muntinlupa City Mayor Laments Dumping of Trash into Drainage Systems

carlocarrasco

As personnel of the City Government of Muntinlupa worked hard unclogging the drainage systems, Mayor Ruffy Biazon lamented the dumping of trash into them which resulted in flooding in different parts of the city, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

Muntinlupa Mayor Ruffy Biazon lamented the dumping of trash into drainage systems, which contributes to flooding in various barangays.

Personnel from the Muntinlupa City government have been unclogging drainage systems in different areas.

Biazon said a tire was found in a drainage ditch on Narra Street in Lakeview, Barangay Putatan.

“Palaisipan talaga sa akin bakit sa aming declogging ng mga drainage sa iba’t ibang lugar sa Muntinlupa, may nakukuhang gulong na nakabara (It’s really a mystery to me why, when we declog drainages in various areas in Muntinlupa, we find tires),” he said.

He added that such obstructions are a major obstacle to the flow of water. The mayor has instructed the city’s Engineering Office to continue declogging operations.

However, he noted that because there are so many drainage systems, the Engineering Office cannot handle them all at once.

The mayor stressed the importance of barangay cooperation to ensure proper drainage flow.

“Hindi makakaila na ang basura ay may kontribusyon sa pagbaha. Kahit regular ang declogging pero patuloy pa rin ang walang pakundangan na pagkalat ng basura, mahihirapan tayong makamit ang efficient na pagdaloy ng ating drainage systems. Lahat tayo may responsibilidad sa pananatili ng kalinisan ng ating lungsod (It cannot be denied that garbage contributes to flooding. Even if declogging is done regularly, if garbage continues to be spread carelessly, it will be difficult for us to achieve efficient flow in our drainage systems. We all have a responsibility to maintain the cleanliness of our city),” he said.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, who do you think dumps trash into the local drainage systems? Were you trapped by flood during the heavy rain that happened on the weekend ending August 9?

Rockwell Raises Stake In Alabang With P6.2 Billion Deal

carlocarrasco

Rockwell Land Corporation – the developer of Rockwell Center in Makati – strengthened its ownership of Alabang Town Center (ATC) by sealing a P6.2 billion deal with the Madrigal family to acquire the remaining stake in the mall operator Alabang Commercial Corp. (ACC), according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin. The ATC will be redeveloped over a number of several years.

For previous developments about Rockwell and its acquisition related to ATC and ACC, click here, here and here.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…

Lopez-led Rockwell Land Corp. expanded its ownership of Alabang Town Center (ATC) to near-total control after striking a ₱6.2 billion agreement with the Madrigal family to acquire an additional 22.96 percent stake in the property’s operating entity.

In a disclosure filed with the Philippine Stock Exchange on Thursday, July 30, the property developer said it executed share purchase agreements with the majority of the remaining shareholders of Alabang Commercial Corp. (ACC)

The transaction elevates Rockwell’s total equity interest in ACC from 76.3 percent to 99.26 percent, cementing its operational dominance over the 17.5-hectare prime estate in Alabang, Muntinlupa.

The move allows Rockwell to execute an ambitious and decade-long master plan designed to modernize the suburban retail and lifestyle landmark. Following the acquisition, the company confirmed that preliminary planning is already underway. To lead the redesign, Rockwell has engaged Uruguayan-Canadian architect Carlos Ott—renowned internationally for iconic modern landmarks—alongside local architect Jun Rodriguez of PRSP.

Night-time shot of Alabang Town Center.

The immediate priorities over the next two years will center on foundational operational upgrades, specifically focusing on expanding parking capacity, optimizing traffic circulation, and recalibrating the commercial tenant mix to boost retail performance.

Over a five- to 10-year horizon, Rockwell’s broader vision aims to preserve the site’s original suburban character while modernizing the venue into a high-density, experiential lifestyle and retail hub.

The deal reinforces Rockwell’s growth trajectory in 2026, building upon operational milestones across its residential, commercial, and hospitality portfolios.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? If you are a resident of Alabang or if you usually visit the Alabang Town Center every week, what do you feel about Rockwell’s redevelopment plans of the decades-old, high-end property? Have your favorite stores or restaurants at ATC already stopped operating recently? What do you hope to see in the ATC as the redevelopment happens over the next several years? Do you think Rockwell’s presence in Alabang will alter the entire business environment in Muntinlupa City?
