DTI Sees More Jobs And Investments Rising In Metro Manila Following Removal Of Ecozone Ban

DTI Sees More Jobs And Investments Rising In Metro Manila Following Removal Of Ecozone Ban

carlocarrasco

Following the lifting of the ban on information technology economic zones in Metro Manila, the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) expects the new investments to come in as well as new jobs to be generated, according to a news report by the Manila Bulletin.

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

The Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) expects the information technology and business process management (IT-BPM) sector to generate more jobs and attract new investments after the lifting of the ban on IT economic zones in Metro Manila.

In a statement on Tuesday, July 28, Trade Secretary Cristina Roque welcomed the issuance of Administrative Order (AO) No. 45, which seeks to ease some of the restrictions under the broader prohibition on the processing and evaluation of applications for ecozones imposed during the previous administration.

“This major policy reform is a resounding victory for the IT-BPM sector and a decisive step forward in strengthening the Philippines’ position as a premier global destination for digital services,” the DTI chief said.

AO 45, signed by President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., excludes applications for the establishment of IT centers and IT parks from the ongoing moratorium on ecozone applications.

The order maintains the prohibition on all other ecozone applications in National Capital Region (NCR), as embodied in AO 18, issued by former President Rodrigo Duterte in 2019. The policy was implemented to encourage development and spur investments in the provinces.

With the lifting of the ban, Roque said the government is addressing long-standing investor demand from IT-BPM firms looking to open or expand in NCR while also creating more opportunities for real estate development.

“As we open new avenues for growth in Metro Manila alongside our continuous push to develop regional IT hubs, we are positioning the IT-BPM sector to generate thousands of high-quality jobs, attract foreign direct investments, and ensure economic growth nationwide,” she said.

The DTI earlier endorsed the proposal of the investment promotion agency (IPA) Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) to lift the moratorium to provide more options for companies seeking to locate in key central business districts in the capital region.

PEZA Director General Tereso Panga earlier told reporters that the ban has essentially forced firms to operate in existing ecozones, restricting their expansion plans.

“We invite our global partners and prospective investors to take full advantage of this renewed momentum and build their future here in the Philippines,” Roque said.

IT-BPM firms operate in ecozones to avail themselves of the fiscal and nonfiscal incentives provided by the government.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you consider Metro Manila suitable for the establish of new economic zones as well as the expansion of existing economic zones? Do you believe that the demand by IT-BPM firms for expansion in Metro Manila is real?

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?

Las Piñas City Court Sentences Foreign National To Life Imprisonment Over 71 Kilos Of Shabu

Las Piñas City Court Sentences Foreign National To Life Imprisonment Over 71 Kilos Of Shabu

carlocarrasco

Recently in the City of Las Piñas, a Regional Trial Court (RTC) sentenced a Taiwanese national to life imprisonment after finding him guilty of possessing more than seventy kilos of shabu, according to a Manila Bulletin news report. The convict was also ordered to pay a fine of P2 million.

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

The Las Piñas City Regional Trial Court sentenced a Taiwanese to life imprisonment after finding him guilty of possessing over P250 million worth of shabu following a search warrant operation, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) said on Tuesday, July 21.

Citing decision from the Las Piñas City Regional Trial Court Branch 255, PDEA said “Chen Te Ho Chang with aliases “Tanda’’ and Te Hi Chen’’ was found guilty of violating Section 11 (Possession of Dangerous Drugs), Article II of Republic Act 9165 or “The Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002″ for possession of 71 kilos of shabu.

Aside from life imprisonment, the court also ordered Chen to pay a P2 million fine.

“The conviction arose from the implementation of a search warrant on June 13, 2017, at a warehouse leased by the accused in BF Martinville Subdivision, Manuyo, Las Piñas City,’’ the PDEA said.

Prior to the warehouse raid, Chen was arrested during an interdiction operation conducted by PDEA and the Philippine National Police (PNP) inside a hotel in Parañaque City on June 3, 2017.

PDEA Director General Isagani R. Nerez said the conviction demonstrates the government’s resolve to ensure that major drug cases culminate in successful prosecution.

“This conviction affirms that our anti-illegal drug campaign extends beyond arrests and seizures. We remain steadfast in building strong cases that will withstand judicial scrutiny and ensure that drug traffickers are convicted and punished to the fullest extent of the law. Justice is best served when those responsible are held fully accountable,’’ Nerez pointed out.

The PDEA chief noted that transnational drug syndicates continue to exploit leased warehouses and storage facilities to conceal large quantities of illegal drugs before distribution.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: If you are a resident of Las Piñas City, what is your reaction to this development? Do you think there are absolutely no illegal drugs hidden within your local community?

Recently in the City of Parañaque, a man who failed to settle cockfight bets worth P300,000 placed on credit was arrested, according to a news report by The Daily Tribune.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from The Daily Tribune report. Some parts in boldface…

A 42-year-old man was arrested Sunday evening after he allegedly failed to settle P300,000 worth of cockfight bets placed on credit at a local cockpit arena in Parañaque City.

The incident took place at about 9:30 p.m. on 19 July inside the cockpit arena located along Quirino Avenue, Barangay Tambo, Parañaque City.

The suspect was identified only by the alias Rommie, a freelance agent and a resident of Barangay Moonwalk, Parañaque City.

Initial investigation disclosed that the suspect, who was a regular customer at the establishment, placed multiple bets totaling P300,000.

Due to his familiarity with the arena, the teller permitted him to place the wagers on credit without immediate payment. However, after losing the bets, the suspect attempted to leave the premises without settling his outstanding account.

The teller blocked his path and demanded payment, but the suspect admitted he had no money to settle the debt, prompting the establishment’s management to seek immediate police assistance.

Responding personnel from the Tambo Police Sub-station arrived at the scene, verified the circumstances, and placed the suspect under arrest.

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, do you want cockfight betting to be banned locally? Are many people in your local community addicted to gambling activities?
