  3. My wife and Inhad this for lunch at the Salcedo Market. It is the best shawarma we have had in the Philippines.

    I looked up their restaurant, and it’s over an hour away from this area and where we live 😭

  5. Back in Manila – A Walk through Malate, Pasay and Makati (Poblacion)

    Walking in Manila on a sweaty 20 km weekend route from Rizal Park through Malate and Pasay to Makati’s Poblacion – street life, wrong turns, cold brew, and a surprise fiesta.

  10. Two hours ago (2025-07-12 24:00) there was fire near us, on the next street. This was third time a fire broke out near us, that I can remember. Twice in the evening, once in the morning. It reminds you to be extra careful and how nothing is permanent. #Makati #Philippines

  11. I was typing the hashtag #Makati and one of the dropdown option is: #goutdefrance2025makati .

    "Gout de France 2025 Makati" 😝

  15. What’s going on in Makati? It’s 1:30 on a Thursday and all the lots around Greenbelt are full and have a line. We checked 4 different lots.

    I’ve never seen it so crowded in the afternoon before.

  17. This second map is of #Makati (one of the cities in Metro Manila) where the building footprints from Bing Maps ML (red) and OSM (blue) are directly shown on top of each other.

    As you can see, the Bing buildings are easily seen to have low quality. Makati is the #Philippines’ financial capital and has tons of skyscrapers. It’s pretty obvious that the ML model is confused by the off-nadir buildings.

  19. A short public announcement from yours truly, a concerned citizen. There's a foreigner who identified himself as #Thai, roaming around Washington Sycip Park & immediate area in #Makati #Philippines , asking for a fare to #Tagaytay .

    He's suspicious because after I gently apologized that I can't help & I was about to suggest to go to the #Thailand embassy, he quickly left. I already reported it to the security in the area.

    If there are foreigners stranded for whatever reason, direct them to their embassy or the local authorities. Don't give them money, & don't go with them if they keep on walking. Also look around you.

    It's fine to assist foreigners, but don't forget your own safety & security. Not because we're in our own land does it mean we have the advantage.

  21. #Makati in 1942 and in 2024

    Makati is a city in the #Philippines 🇵🇭 and is one of the 17 entities that compose the administrative region of Metro Manila. Until recently, Makati and its neighbor #Taguig, had a decades-long territorial dispute over the former American military base Fort William McKinley with the Supreme Court ruling in 2023 that the base’s territory belongs to Taguig.

    If you’re curious, there’s a decent Wikipedia article about the dispute: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makati%E

  23. #Viral sa social media ang signage ng Gil Puyat Ave. sa #Makati City na ginawang Gil Tulog Ave.

    Ayon kay Makati Mayor Abby Binay, hindi sila nagbigay ng pahintulot na palitan ito maging para sa isang advertising campaign.

  26. See #Makati in the attached map in the post above? That's where we live, and work.

    According to the #PHIVOLCS FaultFinder app, we are only 5.2 km away (straight line) from the nearest West Valley Fault System.

    I can easily run 5 km between 50 and 60 min (in 2020, I can do 5 for 35 to 40 min)). That's how close we are. (And it is my major reason why I avoid working in Taguig and Pasig, again.)

    Not to mention, the type of soil underneath our cities, and liquefaction, also matter big time. (It affects the “intensity” of an earthquake, which is different from “magnitude”.)

    We can't just leave. Where else should we go? Forget about the other natural disasters, earthquakes have recently occurred in places initially thought of should not have any; or at least have no recorded earthquake or oral history. It can happen anywhere.

    Our best move is to be prepared.

  28. Colorful #Makati 😃

    Here are some pictures from Poblacion from last weekend. I love this colorful neighborhood in the #Philippines.
