    A bit unrealistic on their part to even think they could reach that goal. Singapore is a city state (a much smaller area with a fraction of the population and political clans...and a much more unified/less diverse group of people) and they tend to not elect idiots to the highest office. The Philippines will never even come close to hitting that level of cleanliness and development.

    It could be a d*mn nice place to hang out if they closed it for any motorized traffic at least on weekends / evenings. Set up some parking space on either end of the blvd, transportation of those who cannot or just are too lazy to walk a bit could be handled by electric or muscle powered tricycles.

    IMHO (RB), is a pure shithole
    beggars, sh*t, p*ss more beggars, might have been a time when it has some enchantment to it, those days are long gone, a few more substandard hotels with a floating restaurant, will give it the added flare, and the Ceres roaring by at break neck speeds , OR YOU WANNA BUY A LOLEX , so called local politicians should be ashamed of themselves , ( not one forward bit of planning goes in to this town), they should be expanding outwards not upwards.

    Dumaguete construction industry with hotels sprouting in the city, the latest of which is the Sierra Hotel, while land preparation for the Quest Hotel is ongoing in barangay Piapi.

    City Mayor Felipe Remollo has also confirmed that having Fil Invest already in the city, with land preparation for the construction of Quest Hotel in Piapi, and the soon-to-rise condotel and marina in that area, will change the entire face of the boulevard and also affect the business climate of the entire city with job opportunities in the pipeline.

    After hearing that Fil Invest is in the city, another businessman has signified his intention to construct a floating restaurant along the boulevard.

    The businessman, whom the mayor did not identify, visited him at city hall yesterday to seek for guidance.

    Remollosaid he is initially amenable to the project, provided the design of the floating restaurant will complement the city's master plan of the Rizal boulevard with the beach volleyball court ready for expansion up to the Silliman portal by the sea. DAILY STAR: Negros Oriental
