To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the business news report of BusinessWorld. Some parts in boldface…
ROCKWELL LAND Corp. reported a 27.6% increase in attributable net income to P4.73 billion for 2025 from P3.71 billion in 2024, driven by higher residential revenues, growth in leasing income, and gains from the acquisition and consolidation of Alabang Commercial Corp. (ACC).
Total consolidated revenues rose 3.9% to P20.87 billion from P20.09 billion a year earlier, with residential sales accounting for about 75% of revenues, while commercial leasing contributed around 21%, the company said in its annual report released on Wednesday.
Residential revenues increased by 5% on higher project completion, while retail and leasing income grew 6% due to improved rental rates and occupancy.
Earnings were also supported by “the gain on the acquisition and consolidation of ACC” and increased contributions from affiliates.
Expenses rose during the period, with selling expenses increasing 9% due to higher sales bookings and project completions, while interest expense went up 11% on higher borrowing costs and loan balances.
Cost of real estate declined by 5%, partly offsetting the increase in expenses, while interest income fell 18% due to lower returns on contract receivables and short-term placements.
Income before tax rose to P6.72 billion from P5.30 billion in 2024. Provision for income tax increased to P1.41 billion, bringing net income to P5.31 billion for the year.
Reservation sales jumped 62% to P25.3 billion, driven by “strong demand for newly launched projects.”
Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Considering the more expensive fuel prices in connection with the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, do you think Rockwell will still be able to achieve strong growth this year? Do you think they will soon announce a redevelopment of the Alabang Town Center?

The Muntinlupa City government has begun implementing an ordinance, granting indigent solo parents P1,000 in monthly cash assistance.
More than 700 beneficiaries recently received their first quarter payout under Muntinlupa Ordinance No. 2025-311 or the Muntinlupa City Solo Parents Cash Subsidy Ordinance.
The measure is part of Mayor Ruffy Biazon’s directive to strengthen support for indigent solo parents.

A solo parent is not qualified if all their children are beyond 22 years old.

Welcome back my readers, YouTube viewers and all others who followed this series of articles focused on YouTube videos worth watching. This is the Holy Week special and I have below some selected videos for your faith in the Lord, for your enlightenment about Israel and more.
#1 Only Jesus Live Video By Hillsong Worship – This past February, Hillsong Worship posted a live worship music video of the song Only Jesus. The song emphasizes that through scripture, Lord Jesus is revealed as the risen King, seated on the throne, and exalted forever. The song will help lift you up spiritually to worship the Lord and the music video itself has been viewed over a million times. Enjoy the video below.
#2 Bless The Lord Lyric Video By New Life Music – Bless The Lord is an original worship song by New Life Music. The song is a reminder to the faithful to honor the Lord by blessing His name, praising Him with gladness and living on with uncompromising faith in Him. Watch and enjoy the lyric video of Bless The Lord below.
#3 The Love Of My Father Video By Planetshakers – The Love of My Father is a worship song from Planetshakers’ Open Door Live Album and it will remind you that God is our father and His love for the faithful (His children) is real, eternal and always holy. We live in an age in which more people in modern society have drifted away from the Lord because of worldliness and they were influenced by rabid feminists and gender activists who openly hate the patriarchy and hate the concept of fatherhood. As such, The Love of My Father is needed for our worship of the Lord and to deepen our relationship with Him. Lift yourselves up with the Planetshakers music video below.
#4 Teachings By Pastor Paul and Shoddy Chase – I encourage you all to deepen your faith in the Lord with the respective teachings of God’s Word led by Pastors Paul and Shoddy Chase. I personally attended their teachings on separate Sunday worship services at New Life Alabang. Grab your bible and notebooks, be ready to write something down and watch the videos below.
#5 Breakthroughs In The World – We live in a twisted and unpredictable world. No matter what happens, we must never let the dark forces separate us from the Lord. As such, we all need to pray to the Lord for protection, endurance and miracles. Within this twisted world we live in, there are indeed developments and good news that happened under the watch of the Lord. Learn what has been happening in the CBN News videos below.
#6 HolyLandSite Israel Videos – I have said it before and I will say it again. Israel is the land God designated to the Jewish people and He sent His only begotten Son Lord Jesus to them to save the lost and unsaved. Israel is the Holy Land and the many miracles and breakthroughs that happened there were recorded in the Holy Bible. Having toured Israel myself, I can clearly say that the Holy Bible came to life in front of me when I visited the holy sites.
In ending this Holy Week Special, I share with you the following scriptures from the Holy Bible.
Jesus answered him,
I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that unless a person is born again (anew, from above), he cannot ever see (know, be acquainted with, and experience) the kingdom of God.
John 3:3 (AMPC)
Grace and spiritual blessing be to you and [soul] peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah),
Who gave (yielded) Himself up [to atone] for our sins [and to save and sanctify us], in order to rescue and deliver us from this present wicked age and world order, in accordance with the will and purpose and plan of our God and Father—
To Him [be ascribed all] the glory through all the ages of the ages and the eternities of the eternities! Amen (so be it).
Galatians 1:3-5 (AMPC)
For God is one, and there is one Mediator between God and the sons of men—the true man, Jesus, the Anointed One.
1 Timothy 2:5 (TPT)
Thank you for your time. Always move forward with uncompromising faith in the Lord. Always remember that Lord Jesus is the hope of ALL nations as He is God’s son as well as the Anointed Mediator between the Heavenly Father and men. Also pray to the Lord to support Israel, its people and for the peace of Jerusalem.
Remember that God always loves the faithful and Lord Jesus is absolutely the hope of ALL nations!
Recently in the progressive City of Muntinlupa, the City Government of Muntinlupa officially started distributing GO Bags (emergency kits filled with essential supplies good for 72 hours) to the local residents living along the West Valley Fault, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…
The Muntinlupa City government started distributing go-bags to families living along the West Valley Fault, which transects several cities.
A go-bag is an emergency kit containing essential supplies that can be used in the first 72 hours of a disaster. It aims to help families be ready in times of earthquake or other emergencies.
The city government distributed the bags to families in Purok Uno, Mendiola Street, in Barangay Alabang through the Muntinlupa City Department of Disaster Resilience and Management.
Priority in the distribution of go-bags are families living along the fault line and areas considered as high-risk in ground movement.
“Unang tanong ng marami: bakit hindi lahat? Simple lang ang sagot—may prioritization tayo. Unang binibigyan ang mga pamilyang nasa high-risk areas, lalo na yung malapit sa West Valley Fault. Sila ang pinakaunang maaapektuhan sakaling magkaroon ng malakas na lindol, kaya doon tayo unang tumutok (The first question many people ask: why not everyone? The answer is simple—we prioritize. Families in high-risk areas are given first, especially those near the West Valley Fault. They are the first to be affected in the event of a major earthquake, so that is where we focus first),” said Muntinlupa Mayor Ruffy Biazon.
He added, “Hindi ito tungkol sa kung sino ang mauuna lang makatanggap; tungkol ito sa kung saan pinaka-kailangan (It is not about who will receive it first; it is about where it is needed most).”
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 more GO Bags should be released to more households in the city in the near future?

Recently in the progressive City of Muntinlupa, Mayor Ruffy Biazon formally signed a resolution from the City Council which opposes the implementation of the Parañaque Spillway Project as it will negatively affect local residents, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…
Muntinlupa Mayor Ruffy Biazon signed a City Council resolution opposing the Parañaque Spillway Project which will displace families in the city.
Muntinlupa Resolution No. 2026-275 reiterates “the City of Muntinlupa’s opposition to the implementation of Paranaque Spillway Project.”
“Pinirmahan ko ang Resolution No. 2026-275 na muling nagpapatibay sa opisyal na pagtutol ng Lungsod ng Muntinlupa sa Parañaque Spillway Project. Noon pang unang termino ko, malinaw na ang posisyon natin dito. Tutol tayo dahil sa direktang epekto sa komunidad, lao sa mga lehitimong residenteng madi-displace ng proyekto (I signed Resolution No. 2026-275 which reaffirms the official opposition of the City of Muntinlupa to the Parañaque Spillway Project. Since my first term, our position on this has been clear. We oppose it because of the direct impact on the community, especially on the legitimate residents who will be displaced by the project), said Biazon.
Biazon said in 2022 the city held a public hearing about the project. In 2023, Biazon sent a letter to the Department of Public Works and Highways to express his opposition to the project. A resolution was passed in 2024 about this.
“Maging ang ating mga barangay ay nagpahayag na rin ng pagtutol, gaya ng naging desisyon ng Barangay Buli noong 2021 na humihiling na ilipat ang proyekto sa mas angkop na lugar. Sa pinakahuling resolusyon na primarily authored by Konsehal Jonas Abadilla, binibigyang-diin din na bumubuo ang lungsod ng isang komprehensibong drainage master plan para sa pangmatagalang solusyon sa pagbaha sa Muntinlupa (Even our barangays have expressed their opposition, such as the decision of Barangay Buli in 2021 requesting the relocation of the project to a more suitable location. In the latest resolution primarily authored by Councilor Jonas Abadilla, it is also emphasized that the city is developing a comprehensive drainage master plan for a long-term solution to flooding in Muntinlupa),” the mayor added.
The new resolution stated that the DPWH announced that the project will proceed this year.
In February, Biazon signed a memorandum of agreement with the “University of the Philippines (UP), for the formulation of Drainage Master Plan for the City Of Muntinlupa, aimed to develop its Drainage Master Plan (DMP), which will serve as the basis for the city’s comprehensive flood management strategy.”
“The City of Muntinlupa reiterates its stand that The Project proponents should present concrete alternate solutions that will lessen/mitigate The Project’s impact on the constituents of the City, more particularly the people of Barangay Buli,” according to the resolution.
It added, “The sentiments of the most affected barangay in the City of Muntinlupa was embodied in Kapasiyahang Barangay ng Buli Bilang 018-2021 Serye 2021 or Kapasiyahang Barangay na Naglalayong Ipalipat sa Orihinal na Planong Pagtatayuan nito o sa iba pang Angkop na Lugar ang Proyekto ng Gobyerno na ‘Paranaque Spillway.’”
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, are you concerned that the Parañaque Spillway Project will displace local residents and worsen flooding in the city? Do you think the DPWH will eventually listen to the City Government and halt the project?

Recently in the progressive City of Muntinlupa, local police officers successfully arrested a 21-year-old man for committing the illegal sale of firearms, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…
The Southern Police District (SPD) arrested a 21-year-old man for illegally selling firearms in Muntinlupa on March 15.
The suspect, identified by his aliases Roniel and Yanyan, was arrested along the PNR Site in Barangay Poblacion, Muntinlupa at about 1:30 a.m. during a gun buy-bust operation led by the SPD’s District Special Operations Unit (DSOU).
The operation was launched after authorities received information from an informant about the suspect’s alleged involvement in the illegal sale of firearms in Muntinlupa and nearby areas.
Based on the report, DSOU operatives conducted the coordinated sting operation together with personnel from the District Intelligence Division, Intelligence Section of the District Mobile Force Battalion, and Muntinlupa police.
Seized during the operation were two .38-caliber revolvers, two pieces of .38-caliber live ammunition, a marked P500 bill used in the transaction along with boodle money, and bags used by the suspect to carry the firearms.
The arrested individual, a resident of the barangay, failed to present any legal documents authorizing him to possess or sell firearms.
He was brought to the DSOU office for documentation and to the Pasay City General Hospital for physical and medical examination.
The police will request firearms records verification from the Firearms and Explosives Office to determine whether the suspect is a licensed firearm holder.

Mayor Ruffy Biazon said the city government will provide assistance to the family of a motorcycle rider who was killed when a falling tree hit him on March 11.
“Lubos akong nakikiramay sa pamilya ng motorcycle rider na nasawi matapos mabagsakan ng puno sa National Rd. kagabi. Ang Pamahalaang Lungsod ng Muntinlupa ay nakikipag-ugnayan na sa kanyang pamilya para magbigay ng assistance at iba pang kinakailangang tulong sa abot ng ating makakaya (I extend my deepest condolences to the family of the motorcycle rider who died after being hit by a tree on National Rd. last night. The Muntinlupa City Government is already coordinating with his family to provide assistance and other necessary help to the best of our ability),” Biazon said.
“Kasabay nito, ongoing na rin ang masusing imbestigasyon tungkol sa insidente. Ipinag-utos ko rin ang inspection at agarang cutting o trimming ng mga puno sa mga lugar na maaaring magdulot ng panganib, para maiwasan ang kaparehong trahedya sa hinaharap. Maraming salamat din sa responders na agad tumulong para maalis ang natumbang puno (At the same time, a thorough investigation into the incident is also ongoing. I have also ordered the inspection and immediate cutting or trimming of trees in areas that may pose a danger, to prevent similar tragedies in the future. Many thanks also to the responders who immediately helped to remove the fallen tree).”
The Muntinlupa police reported that an acacia tree suddenly fell, directly hitting the northbound motorcycle rider and damaging two southbound vehicles.
The police identified the victim as Ronnie Cruz, 36, stockman, a resident of BF Homes International Village, Las Piñas. He suffered injuries and was brought to the Medical Center Muntinlupa (MCM) where he was declared dead on arrival by an attending doctor, the police said in a report.

If you are a resident of Muntinlupa City, are you satisfied with the City Government providing assistance to the family of the victim? Do you think it is time for local authorities to closely examine large trees along the major roads to determine if they will fall down soon? When was the last time a significant trimming of trees in your local community happened?

With Maynilad’s daily water service interruptions still going on in Muntinlupa City, Mayor Ruffy Biazon formally wrote to the executives of the water concessionaire about the problem, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…
Mayor Ruffy Biazon took the problem of the daily water service interruptions in Muntinlupa to the top executives of Maynilad Water Services.
Muntinlupa customers of Maynilad have been experiencing daily water service interruptions since February.
In its latest advisory, Maynilad told Muntinlupa customers, “Some areas of Brgys. Alabang, Bayanan, Poblacion, Putatan and Tunasan, Muntinlupa City may experience low to no water supply starting March 14, 2026 at 4:00 pm until March 15, 2026 at 7:00 am. This is due to sudden changes in raw water quality caused by strong winds over Laguna Lake during the Amihan season, which required operational adjustments in our treatment facilities. We are currently managing the limited supply and will restore normal service as soon as conditions improve. Mobile water tankers are being deployed in affected areas to assist customers. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding.”
Biazon sent letters to Ramoncito Fernandez, Maynilad president and chief executive officer; and Christopher Jaime Lichauco, chief operating officer, telling them that “once again, Maynilad has failed its customers.”
He said that the water service interruptions have been happening despite the fact that Maynilad has two water treatment plants in Muntinlupa, located in Barangays Putatan and Poblacion.
The mayor is asking Maynilad for a meeting to explain the situation, present steps to prevent it from happening again, and give consideration to affected Muntinlupa customers.
Due to the water service interruptions, the Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System Regulatory Office (MWSS-RO) imposed a penalty against Maynilad amounting to P42,569,790.85.
“Meanwhile, following the prolonged water service interruptions that occurred in the southern portion of the West Concession Area in February 2026, the MWSS RO conducted an investigation into the prevailing water supply conditions in the affected areas. Based on the evidence gathered, the MWSS RO found that Maynilad failed to meet its service obligation of providing an uninterrupted twenty-four (24)-hour supply of water at a minimum pressure of seven (7) pounds per square inch (psi) to 98,331 customers within the Putatan Water Treatment Plant and Poblacion Water Treatment Plant Supply Zones,” Maynilad said in a press statemetn.
It said the penalty will be implemented in the form of bill rebates equivalent to P432.92 per affected water service connection, to be reflected in customers’ water bills by April this year.
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, were you affected by the ongoing water service interruptions? If you were affected, how were you able to solve water-related problems in your household? Where do you get water now?
