AND MORE DAMNED PROOF THAT THE PHILIPPINES IS JUDGED BY THE CONDITIONS OF DOWNTOWN MANILA...

Read this hideous review of Manila by a visitor from Spain only posted a few days ago. Can't blame her for finding the place "unspectacular" and for being disgusted by the toothless street people. Really, the vagrants really shouldn't be allowed to loiter in our front-of-house, so to speak. Not that I am saying that we should jail them or commit genocide to take them out of their misery, but having them sleep, bathe, and set up camp in public spaces is an activity that should not be condoned by anyone. Paging Mayor Lim! Madame Harper of The Intramuros Administration has been knocking on your door for a while now to do something about the vagrants in Intramuros. Shall you finally put money where your mouth is and do something about it? I mean, I know solving the squatter problem of the entire Metro Manila won't be easy until someone finally overturns the RIDICULOUS LINA LAW. (which gave squatters all the rights and privilege in the world to occupy ANYONE'S LAND.) But cleaning up Intramuros of vagrants would be a start.

Sheesh. The crap I am up against in helping change the image of this damned city. It's f***ing frustrating. Ugh. It's enough to make me sick. Really,I'mthisclosetogivingup. I really am. Why bother singing praises for a city that it's own residents and leaders don't give a sh** about? It's making me feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

Read here review here. Anyone out there who can help me post a translation?
