Monterraza de Cebu … trees were cut in the mountains . Of course, Slater Young only knows retention ponds. What happens when you cut trees on mountains? You replace a stable, slow-draining natural reservoir with a vulnerable, fast-flooding slide. Without the tree roots anchoring… https://t.co/Xwl09bJhkR

Had to stop watching his vlogs. Puro Skypod naririnig ko eh. The guy is living inside a bubble.
ReplyDeleteDami nilang pinutol na mga puno. Wala ng puno. Wala ng mga bundok. Paano nagawan ng mga bahay yan eh bundok yan. Public domain. Paano naging private property? Imbestigahan dapat DENR diyan. Wala ng konsepto ng public at private domain ngayon. Kahit mga bundok at natural resources inaangkin. Buti yun sa chocolate hills napasara yung gumawa ng pool sa mga burol dun. Eto bundok naging private property. Naging Subdivision. Grabe na talaga corruption. Literal na nakakamatay kasi ang daming namatay ngayon sa Cebu dahil sa bagyo. Ang corruption hindi lang nakakahirap ng buhay. Literal na nakakamatay. Imbess na progress, paurong ng paurong ang Pilipinas. Dati pag 70s-80s sinabing bundok. Bundok. Bawal tituluhan. Public domain. Ngayon nagiging private property na.
DeleteThis is not just his fault. Sali nyo ung nag approve ng subdivision sa municipal. They (at the municipality ng government) did not do their due diligence before approving it, otherwise they will not have this issue. Sa Canada, before ma approve ung subdivision, the developer and their engineers will submit the plan for the subdivision along with other requirements, then the City/Town will review, they will check to see if the plan is within the zoning and building by-law, then if its good to go, they developer can only then start digging. Then once theyve already finishing the initial step, the developer will submit the plan for each house, they cant just build the houses. Basically, every next step the developer makes, the City/Town have to approve it first. Sa Pinas kasi, pera perahan kaya ang kawawa ung mga naunang nakatira sa area bago madeveloped ung area.
DeleteKaya isa dapat sana walang pera perahan.
dati na talaga binabaha kami sa cebu since i was a student pa. problem din drainage system sa cebu. kahit walang bagyo bumabaha when it rains so i dont think its that mountain thingy. but i must say palpak flood control, the rivers overflowed kaya sobrang taas ng baha.
DeleteHow about the quarrying of dolomite sands for the manila bay dolomite beach? Factor din ba yun kung bakit bumaha sa Cebu?
DeleteUsed to live in a community like this in Cebu. Hindi lang po puno kinuha nila, pati ang flora at fauna ng lugar. Natural habitat ang bundok ng Cebu ng mga maral at bayawak, may malalaking mga ibon pa at miminsan squirrels. Eto yung mga animals na na i encounter namin sa village. Had to sell our house malala ang traffic. Mind you hindi luxurious ang daan papunta sa luxury kuno na mga houses na yan. So what’s the point? Time is still the most precious commodity. Bahala na yang view na yan basta d nasasayang oras namin sa pagda drive.
DeleteIto ba yung isa sa residents is a nepo baby?
DeleteTrue 12:14 naaalala ko nung 70's may mga tree planting activities pa ang mga estudyante para mapalitan ang mga pinuputol na puno. Kumbaga iniisip din ang future generations
DeleteApproximately 80% of Cebu City's total land area is hilly and mountainous, while only about 8% is flat, low-lying coastal plain.
DeleteWhere do we live and how will the economy grow?
So ok, wag na pala kayong mag reklamo pag binabaha kayo 9:03.
DeleteWell, you don't grow it this way 903. Obviously.
Delete9:03 where do you live and how will economy grow? Live in a place that's safe. Safe ba yung nasa binabaha kayo na lugar at may threat ng landslide? Naggrow ba ang economy sa mga mga made disaster na ito? Hindi ah
DeleteWala pa yang monterazza, nangyayari n ang ganyang calamity. Nghhnap ng masisisi.
DeleteAy wow. Nahiya po ang cebu an mountainous area. By your definition, dapat pala walang nag settle sa Cebu e ano?
DeleteWe dont complain po sa mga no name netizens. We complain sa government and developers who do substandard projects. If the standard quality is being implemented it lessens impacts of similar tragedies. What people do not realize is that the area around Cebu City was deluged with 183 millimeters (seven inches) of rain and Tino dumped 1.5 months worth of rain in Cebu alone. In contrast Ondoy dumped 1 month of rain. If that happened in any area, any province will experience the same problem. Kaya wag po kayo mapag mataas. Timing lang na sa Cebu nangyari eto, hindi sa areas ninyo. I dont see other parts of Visayas taking the same arrogant stand kasi everyone in Visayas like Negros, Leyte, who went through Tino had similar experiences.
Delete5:23 by your comment, living in the mountain areas is not safe because of landslide. So people opted far from the mountains and went to the flat lands, which are also mostly coastal or are near rivers or creeks. And guess what happened? Rivers overflowed and this is what happened.
Delete10:14 at 11:03 eh di Sige babuyin niyo pa mga bundok diyan sa Cebu. Kayo din naman ang pahihirapan ng kalikassn. Wala ng iba. Palusot pa kayo sa pagbaboy niyo sa mga bundok. Tapos hihingi ng tulong pag nabaha. Imbis na sisihin niyo un dami ng ulan. Sisisihin niyo mga sarili niyo bakit kayo sa bundok tumira at hinayaan niyong nakawin ng mga politiko niyo ang pang flood control projects ng lugar niyo
Delete9:03 Kung ang mga namumuno sa gobyerno ay talagang ginagawa ang trabaho nila or may concern sa pagprotekta ng gubat at pag-iwas sa pagtapyas ng bundok, ang tamang solusyon ay rezoning ng existing flat zones. Marami pang low density, privately owned lands sa Cebu na nasa flat areas. Minsan isang bahay lang ang nakatayo sa loob ng 1,000 sqm na lote. Imbes na hayaan na ganyan, dapat itong i-reclassify into medium or high density, lalo na kung may research-based proof na mataas ang demand sa housing.
DeleteMay kapangyarihan ang gobyerno na gawin ito. Nasa zoning authority nila yan.
Ang problema, hindi nila ginagawa. Mas inuuna ang interes ng mayayaman. Takot silang kalabanin ang mga big developers o influential landowners. Mas gusto pa nila i-change ang zoning classification ng bundok, gubat at agricultural land dahil walang lalaban. Nature lang ang tatamaan, hindi ang may pera.
Sabihin nga, saang developed country ka nakakita na tinatapyas ang bundok para lang sa LUHO ng high-end housing? Kung meron, paki-justify.
Tinagalog ko na nang sobra para maintindihan mo.
Exit ka na sa project, u were a celebrity so ikaw ang kilala and ikaw talaga mapupuruhan dyan. Floods are inevitable so lagi magiging kasalanan ng mountain project mo. Life is short choose your peace of mind and baka maging worse pa pati family mo maapektuhan rin.
Delete1:47 Tama tumpak 💯💯 Nagpapalusot pa ang iba dito sa pagtira ng mga tao sa tinapyas na bundok. Susme. Sila sila din naman ang pahihirapan pag nagkadelubyo na. Bundok. Mountain. Titirhan mo. Papatagin mo. Puputulin mo mga puno. Tapos pag binaha eh nagtataka ka. Common sense lumipad na sa langit.
Delete8:52 may gardening at tree planting sa elementary. Private un school ko pero may tree planting. 90s un, tapos may TOTAL LOG BAN. ANYARE NA PINAS SA TOTAL LOG BAN NIYO?
Delete26BILLION ang flood control projects diyan sa Cebu. Anong nangyari? San napunta?
DeleteIts their corporate responsibility to ensure that water will go somewhere din.
Delete1:47 tagalogin ko din po sagot ko.
DeleteHindi ba nga ang submerged na areas are in the low lands? The ones near the river banks?
Taga Cebu ka ba? Hindi mo ba alam ano hitsura ng busay, tisa, pardo, capitol? Ang liloan, talisay, minglanilla? Danao? Consolacion? All municipalities to the south? Di ba part mountain and dagat dyan tapos marami rivers and creeks in the middle?
Ang may malalaking lupa na sinasabi mo na nasa flat lands sobrang konti na lang, halos condo na nga ang Cebu if not tapos na under preselling na. Napakarami ng mountain brgys ng Cebu para i oversimplify at sabihin lang na i change ang zoning.
Give me a specific area na may undeveloped flat lands na hindi malapit sa creek and I will believe you.
Tama ang sinasabi mo to hold the govt accountable. Re-zoning cannot do so much because of what little flat land is available. Govt should require developers to fully comply to building standards and dapat strict si OBO sa pag monitor nito. Dapat inaayos ang retaining walls and riprap malapit sa river banks and even for subdivisions being developed. Govt should work with developers in these identified areas and come up with quality and proper flood control projects.
We have no choice but to coexist with the land that we have.that is a reality of life.
At sa mga mayayabang na nag sasabi na huwag iiyak and hingi ng tulong ang Cebu? I guess you dont know Cebu. We have been through so much from Odette, earthquakes and even Yolanda. Cebu rises and work together, we help our fellow Cebuanos because we understand the situation and lived in it. I know people na na submerged ang mga bahay and not a single one even cries about the so called massive deforestation that you are claiming.
My challenge to you keyboard warriors is punta kayo dito at hanapin nyo ang massive deforestation na sinansabi nyo which rivals the kind in Baguio.
"Ayan, may alibi na kami..Tnx Slater!!"
Delete-Zaldy Co and Congressman accomplice
188 namatay at almost 200 nawawala. So almost 400 pala ang casualty. Putol ng puno pa more. Patag ng bundok pa more. Yung no build zone lagyan niyo ng bahay pa more. Nakaw ng pondo sa flood control projects pa more. Keep it up.
Delete1:18 syempre may sisi ang DPWH at LGU diyan dahil 26 billion ang flood control projects diyan sa Cebu. BUT YOU CAN'T DENY THE FACT NA PINUTOL NIYO ANG MGA PUNO AT SINIRA ANG BUNDOK at naka contribute yan sa baha at delubyo na nangyari. Nung 70s to 90s you don't build homes in the mountain, sa taas at sa baba ng mountain, same with river.
DeleteIpako nayang SY na yan! Siraulo din eh. Nag create lang ng chaos sa Cebu.
ReplyDeleteLook at his house, daming issues. He seems to be experimenting lang pero walang substance ung mga projects nya.
DeleteWala pa namang kasing napapatunayan yan. Puro hype. Sariling bahay nga niya puro sira eh. Palpak. Tama un term na nageexperiment lang siya. Wala siyang experience sa mga ganyan. Ni hindi yan nagtrabaho outside their company. Pano matututo? Yung ibang architect at engineer nga nagaabroad pa para mahasa talaga sa profession nila. Yan puro hype. Kasi nga pang YouTube. Kawawa naman ang mga namatay. Grabe baha sa Cebu unprecedented. Never before seen or experienced. Landslide prone pa yun ginawa nilang pagbaboy sa mga natural resources. Grabe. Wala man lang ba tumutol na taga diyan nung ginagawa iyan
Delete12:58 more on gaya sya ng gaya sa mga houses abroad. Eh iba naman ang weather sa ibang bansa.. kaya yung mga project nya laging may sira kase hindi pang Pinas talaga..
Delete12:58 true! His newly built house has lot of issues knowing sila din Construction firm, supplier & Engr. ah..
Delete9:12 agree
Delete9:12 yup, if Eu ang model nyan eh malamang walang earthquake at typhoon everymonth dito. Jusko, very vulnerable ang bansa natin sa calamities.
DeleteIts true. Draining ponds are not enough to hold back landslides and sudden water volume. Essentially, dahil sa typhoons at sa geology ng Pinas, his project is a potential risk for his residents and for the people downountain na sasalo sa tubig. Ngayon baha na, pagkatapos ng project niya, magiging deadly yan.
ReplyDeleteWell they're not wrong.
ReplyDeleteAlangan namang di napag aralan yan, I give Slater the benefit of the doubt🤷♀️
ReplyDelete11:51 napag-aralan pero palpak. Bahay nga nya laging may sira tuwing umuulan ng malakas. Daming palpak sa bahay nya palang yan pa kayang hindi naman sya ang nakatira.
Delete11:51 Kapag Natural Calamity kahit gaano pa ka advanced yung technology, unpredictable pa rin yan. Nananahimik yung bundok, pakiki-alaman nila.
DeleteTeh, ngayon lang bumaha ng ganyan katindi sa Cebu. Ano bang nabago or tinapyas?
DeletePinagbawal na nga yan ng mayor back in 2011. May cease and desist order. So ewan bakit natuloy.
DeleteYou really think slater cares about the people na maaapektuhan ng project nya? Wake up!
DeleteBumaha na nga oh ano pang botd ang hinahanap mo?? Never destroy the nature, mountains and trees are there for a reason
Delete12:37 I agree!
Delete11:51 gurl, matagal na natin alam n nature is very unpredictable and puno ay very helpful sa bundok and yet they/SY still pushed his projects. So theres no doubt n may kasalanan sya
DeleteDENR at LGU pinayagan at binigyan din permit kalbo n bundok
DeleteNakita mo ba yung tubig baha dun? Obvious ba galing sa construction site
DeleteIt's only a matter of time bago maging perwisyo yan ng husto. Dati hindi masyado malaki ang flood problem sa Cebu pero ngayon grabe at malala na ang devastation.
DeleteKase hindi naman pang Pinas yung concepts nya.. makikita mo yan sa US soecifically sa hindi binabagyo na part..
DeleteWow typical na faney na may mali todo tanggol pa rin
DeleteLmao. Given na yan. Pero pwede ding pinilit, or palpak study kasi GREED IS THE MOST IMPORTANT.
DeleteWell, blame the government who approved of his project.
ReplyDeleteIf I were Slater I will never think of that project. Since year 2000 usc days pa niya, bahain na sa Cebu tapos kakalbuhin ko pa ang bundok? 😔 No way
DeleteThey are all equally to blame.
DeleteIt takes two to tango.
DeleteDi yan ma-aapprove kung walang nagbayad at nagpabayad 🤷🏻♂️
Blame the voters as well
DeleteSo ano innocent sya?? Eh siya nag propose nito.
DeleteWag isisi lahat sa palpak na flood control projects at kay Slater. Kasi yung mga tao din ang isa sa may kasalanan. Kakatapon doon, tapon dito ng mga basura.
ReplyDeleteShunga di basura ang cause ng baha
DeleteHindi lahat pero major contributing factors sila. Wake up! Itigil na ang pagigung panatiko
Delete1259 actually may contributing factor din ang mga basura dahil they block the drainage systems na doon dapat napupunta yung flood waters.
DeleteHaving said that, nag contribute din ang pagkalbo ng mga bundok nila Slater sa trahedya na nangyari ngayon.
Research po. Tino dropped 1.5 months worth of rain in Cebu. Nag overflow po ang mga rivers. Baha po but hindi basura baha, overflow po sa river ang cause. Halos lahat nga submerged subdivisions malapait sa river. Hindi po binaha ang guadalupe.
DeletePlus binoto rin mga govt officials
DeleteSaan ba galing ang pagbaha ng mga ilog? Diba sa mga kalbo ring bundok?
Delete850 tomoh at Ang project ni Slater nasa hillside ng Guadalupe. So paanong iyon ang cause ng baha sa Talisay, talamban. Mandaue at Liloan eh ang layo layo na ng mga iyon sa Guadalupe.
DeleteAgain, Tino dropped 1.5 months worth of rain in Cebu while Ondoy dropped only 1 month worth of rain and dams were also opened . May bundok po ba na kinalbo sa Metro Manila kaya na Ondoy sila? The same happened to Negros din during Tino, grabeng baha po kasi sobrang daming ulan that was dumped.
DeleteHaha! Sabaw mo. Yes given n yan. Pero d ka ba nagtataka this ONLY happened now?? And look at the areas he built and saan dumaan tubig.
Delete26 billion ang halaga ng flood control projects sa CEBU WAG T@NGA
DeleteSaan ba yan sa Cebu
ReplyDeleteMakalagot jud mag basi mga tig yawyaw na wala na hibawan. Sorry but I cannot with the misdirected hate and bandwagoning. Monterrazas is in Guadalupe and hindi naman binaha ang Guadalupe area, which is where we live. Ang mga binaha are in Talisay and Talamban which are many kilometers away from Guadalupe. Yung na wipe out na area are houses under the Mananga bridge in Talisay and connected to river bank subdivisions like Villa del Rio, Joanna Legacy Homes and Deca. Same thing with Villa del Rio in Talamban where the creek behind it overflowed. In Liloan subdivisions submerged when Cotcot river overflowed and in Mandaue, Buanonon river. So please lang. ang Monterrazas kay layooooo kaayo ana nila. Google is free. Nakakainis mga keyboard warriors na wala sa hulog ang galit
ReplyDeleteAng dami din kasing fake news peddlers and etong naman mga iba sobra react without verifying basta makita lang social media bash bash bash, hate, curse, etc. Whats even funny is yun mga tao unaffected or living outside Cebu pa yung madaming sinasabi. Unfortunely, Slaters family is an easy target. sinisi for everything kasi they can just comment on their pages
Deletethis needs to be spread. kawawa naman si Slater kung di naman talaga project n'ya ang cause. grabe mga tao ngayon basta nasa likod ng computer nila or phone akala mga experts na eh. di muna mag research. ang layo naman pala sa mga affected areas. kaloka.
Delete12:34 AM Sabihin na natin na hindi binaha sa ngayon yung lugar kung nasaan yung project ni Slater Young. Nagpuputol sila ng puno para dyan sa project ni Slater. Hihintayin pa ba natin bahain yung lugar bago i call out?
DeleteBut hindi pa din tama na kinalbo nila yung bundok. And the DENR allowed them to.
DeleteWhy nag overflow ang rivers madam??! Dba tungod na upaw ang mga bukid?
DeleteAre you not worrying12:24AM that it might be happen in your area in the nearest future? And di imposible. Kapag bundok na ang ginalaw matitikman natin ang hagupit ng bagyo,kawawa yong mga nasa baba na area. Ano sa tingin mo yong cause ng pag apaw ng creek na sinasabi mo? Ang mga puno ay isa sa may malaking tulong upang maiwasan ang pagbaha. Kung papalitan ng bahay ang mga puno papano kayo?.. Sa ngayon di kayo affected,maaaring di sa lugar nyo yong may pinakamalakas na volume ng tubig ulan,papano kung sainyong lugar naman bumagsak ang malakas na volume ng ulan(simbako)??
DeleteSadly maam ga baha sa Guadalupe nga dili unta bahaonon ever since. Wapa guro ka kita sa post atong nas ubos sa monterazas nga gibaha sila creamy kaayo ang tubig tungod sa anapog
DeleteOkay hintayin natin na bahain at magka landslide sa Guadalupe para masisi sya.
DeleteWell, people still hate Slater for ruining the mountain. You'll see in the future, babahain parin yan. Wag niyo na ipag tanggol, di naman kayo makakamana ng yaman nila na galing sa kasakiman.
DeleteIf di pa ngayon nabaha sa area ni slater, expect this in the future. Yung mga tao nearby, maghanap na ng ibang malilipatan while there is still time.
DeleteTHIS! I do not condone his project per se, but being blamed and crucified from the recent flooding happened far away from his project, is totally crazy. How easy for people to pick on someone and spread fake news and hate. Like what 1:31AM said most of them are not even from Cebu. Haaaay people of the Philippines, walay paglaum atong gobyerno, ingon niini ang atong kinaiya. Usbon ta sana...
Delete1234 Hi Krissy, napadaan ka dito sa FP. Lol
Delete9:28. Yes. Because for this issue wala sya kinalaman. Misdirected po ang galit ninyo and when misdirected or misinformed ang tao hindi naaayos ang tamang issue. In this case overflow sa rivers and creek yung issue. In this instance yun ang kailangan tuunan MUNA ng pansin para maayos kasi it is a real danger when similar issues happen. I live in a similar subdivision sa Monterrazas and limestone po ang bundok and hindi po kalbo ang bundok namin kasi there are dedicated spaces for greenery and trees.
Delete12:34 Hindi naman yun ang point ng hate kay Slater. The fact na nanira yung project nya ng natural resources ay nakakagalit na yun. So ano hintayin niyo na bumaha naman sa Guadalupe bago nyo i-callout?
DeletePunta po kayo ng Cebu at bilangin nyo ilang subdivisions ang nasa bundok and ilang brgys sa Cebu ang bundok. Kahit within Cebu City lang. para maintindihan nyo kung ano ang Cebu. Do not apply what you know in your areas sa mga tao na taga dito.
DeleteOh kambyo na mga fake new feeder. Tama maghintay kayo hindi yong sisi kaagad sa hindi naman talaga dahil sa kanya. Sisihin nyo yang mga binoto nyo at ibinulsa ang flood control project.
DeleteYung point is discussing Slater and Monterrazas The Rise (which he does not even own but only “designed”) takes away the conversation from the real problem in relation to what happened during the typhoon.
DeleteWhen we choose to focus on Slater and Monterrazas it takes away the focus from the need to strengthen ripraps in areas near river banks, increase elevation of housing projects for coastal subdivisions, impose no build zones near river banks like the Mananga river, etc, ensure that retaining walls of subdivisions meet standard requirements, do proper information dissemination when dams are opened and execute an EWD to evacuate when dams reach critical water level, etc.
These are conversations that need to be brought in the open when we focus on the topic at hand. Focusing blame on Slater for something that did not happen will not shed light to these issues kasi magka iba na issues and root causes ang nangyari and sinasabi nyo na pwede mangyari
I hope that makes sense.
5:29 Kaya kayo binabaha. Sige ubusin nyo lang yung bundok dyan. Baka tuluyan ng lumubog yang Cebu
Delete12:34 finally I hear from someone who actually lives in Cebu. Kasi parang yung mga gigil hindi taga Cebu.
Delete11:01 puro bundok kasi ang cebu kesa sa land. So walang titirhan mga tao. Kaya nga sinabi na punta kayo very so everyone can understand.
Delete7:49 taga Guadalupe ka day? Cos if taga Guadalupe ka dugay na na ginabaha ang Gudalupe bisag dili bagyo kay aside from bukid na ang area hence the erosion, densely populated sad so ubo ubo pud ang drainages sa basura. Wala pa na ka PBB si Slater ga baha na ang Guadalupe oi. Nagka issue pud na sila sa outlet sa drainage ni Monterrazas sang una way back 2000s.
DeleteWhat’s worst yung isang influencer diyan din nakatira - yung encsiso.
ReplyDeleteTaga diyan family ng hubby niya eh,mga mayaman din un.
DeleteSiya ba yung sis na the father in law was co-accused in a plunder case against ex-pres Estrada?
Delete11:22 no. Yung isa. Yung ate.
DeleteAno ba naman ieexpect natin sa skyfam e mga hindi naman yan natatapak sa putik.. este sa lupa.
ReplyDeleteAng ganda ganda po ng Cebu wag natin sirain at pabayaan at higit sa lahat wag nayin sayangin mga buhay ng mga tao. Hindi pwedeng hindi pinagiisipan. Hindi pwedeng para sa mayayaman lang.
ReplyDeleteYou have blood on your hands, Slater.
ReplyDeleteWalang bahang nangyari sa Guadalupe area... Kung taga cebu mo kabaw mo nga ang Talisay ug talamban ang gibahaan. ngano gud ipasangil ng project ni Slater nga kalayo ras Guadalupe sa Talisay ug talamban?
DeleteWala sa Guadalupe area but lets be real sinira nila ang bundok n supposed to help
DeleteLets be real putik ang ang baha which means galing sa bundok have you heard of flash flood? They may have prepared for that area kaya inayos nila ang drainage sa malalapit na lugar so where did the water go and became stagnant?
Edi hintayin nyo mangyari din yan sa Guadalupe
DeleteGirl, you cannot solely based the baha sa flood control project. Slater’s project—kinalbo ang mountains which meant they destroyed an effective natural way of preventing floods. Yung mga nakatira sa baba ng project ni Slater is affected.
Delete137 correct. Itong mga nagcocoment dito who are not from cebu should be educated. Slaters project is in Guadalupe area na hindi naman binaha ang brgy gudalupe. Yong. Ga areas na binaha anlayo non sa Guadalupe. Sana tumigil na itong mga keyboard warriors na wala namang kaalam-alam.
DeleteGive it time babaha din sa Guadalupe with this kind of monstrosity project.
Delete1:37 Bakit binibisaya mo si 12:48? Sure ka ba na bisaya sya, paano ka nya maiintindihan kung hindi naman pala sya same dialect syo? Tagalogin or englishin mo.
DeleteThat means 12:48 should educate himself before accusing someone over doing something in a place where he does not live in di ba? Ayaw pataka yawyaw kung wala kahibaw. We are beyond coddling people that ignorant, proud and irresponsible. When you can comment in this site you can also check the news.
Delete1133 kasi kuda ng kuda hindi naman taga cebu. mga walang alam!
Delete9:16 sorry pero kung ganyan ang attitude nyo, deserve nyo yan... bakit nyo ipagtatanggol ang naninira ng kalikasan??? common sense lang .... nanira sila ng bundok ay may effect yan...dapat lang mabash yan si slater.
DeleteNung nag Ondoy po ba sino ang binlame nyo?
DeleteDay gibaha man sad ang Guadalupe swerte lang ka wa naabot sa inyoha. Tan awa nang video sa babaw Guadlaupe man na.
DeleteWHO approved this? Nakkaiyak. Such disrespect to Nature and the people of Cebu.
ReplyDeleteLocal Government and DENR
Deletediyan nakatira ang anak ng customs😂 save nanaman ang nepo baby
ReplyDeleteGaano ba kalapit yan sa Bayan na binaha sa Cebu? Bakit yan lang ang sinisisi? San flood control? Karamihan nga subdivision at tabing bundok bumaha sa cebu.
ReplyDeleteOf course yung areas n malalapit napaghandaan at aayusin ang drainage dahil sila ang obviously masisisi but come to think of it bundok ang sinira nila san papunta ang mga tubig baha n yan
Delete11.2km to first point in talamban, 13km to first point in Talisay. Sobrang layo po. Kaya nakakainis ang mga keyboard warriors na wala sa hulog. Not to defend slater pero taga Cebu ako and we also live in a mountain subdivision. Bakit? Kasi po a large part of Cebu is bundok!!!! Saan nyo po kami papatirahan if hanggang flat lands lang dapat? Hindi magka pareho ng topography mg metro manila or most cities sa Cebu.
DeletePaano yan babahain eh bundok nga yan nasa taas sila. Malamang sa alamang eh yung mga nasa baba nyan ang babahain common sense na lang.
Delete8:48 ok noted ok naman pala sa inyo yan dasurv.
DeleteWatershed dapat ang bundok. Di porket sa ibang lugar finally umapaw yung sobrang tubig sa ilog, ibig sabihin walang kinalaman yung pagsira ng watershed sa karatig na area. Nature is a system, kaya konektado po lahat ng yan
Delete6:44 tama ka, everything is connected. His designed disrupted the drainage system of the ecology. Minsan nga ang cause ng trahedya ilang daang kilometro ang layo, same din sa fault movements sa lindol. Do not disrupt nature, yan ang lesson.
Delete8:48 Ubusin nyo lang mga bundok dyan, hintayin nyo mas lalong lumubog yung Cebu. Kaya nga nasisisi si Slater kasi dahil sa project nya. Oo sa ngayon hindi binaha yung area kung nasaan yung project niya. Pero sa mga susunod na taon or dadaan na bagyo, maapektuhan na rin yan.
Delete8:48 actually 11 to 13 km is not that far kung ang pinaguusapan e yung pagdaloy ng waterways. Pwedeng nag overflow yung ilog in one area dahil natambakan siya ng tubig from another area. Nagkataon lang sigurong elevated ang Guadalupe compared to nearby areas kaya yung iba ang napahamak.
DeleteAt walang problemang magka subdivision sa mabundok, mountain settlements are common around the world. Pero over the top yung ginawa ni Slater Young, instead of working with the topography giniba niya yung kalahati ng bundok. Hindi bagay sa pilipinas na laging binabagyo.
Don’t be fooled just because the project hasn’t flooded the area itself, or even the next town. That isn’t proof it’s harmless. Water moves. Under pressure, it will find any escape. If you block it at one point, it simply turns and flows where there’s room. That’s basic physics, not opinion.
DeleteThe people behind this project are to blame. They knew from the very beginning that it was extremely ambitious, yet they built it in a place without the necessary infrastructure or capacity to handle the potential negative impact on the surrounding areas.
The government is also to blame for giving them the permit. From the start, they violated basic planning rules. Check the history of that plot and its zoning classification. Why was it changed? Why did it become residential?
Of course, they allowed it. Politicians likely pushed it through too. Why? Not to boost the local economy, but to create opportunities for more infrastructure projects they could propose, such as flood control measures and roads to connect the project to the main town. More infrastructure projects mean more chances to skim from public funds.
Poor Cebu, so many of its citizens are still rationalizing what is obviously wrong. Understanding the real situation requires stepping back and considering the full scope. Those who focus only on what is immediately apparent risk missing the deeper causes and consequences.
I still pray for its people.
Indeed a selfish act.
ReplyDeletePride of Cebu daw yan hahahhha
ReplyDeleteHe cut trees down for profit?Hudas.
ReplyDeleteAguyyy Dodong Slater murag tagilid ka diri. Ayan babahain ka ng call out ngayon.
ReplyDeleteYung watershed mountain sa lugar namin nagputol ng 200 trees ang isang company. It resulted in flooding sa dalawang ilog. Ano na lang kaya kung ganyan kalala.
ReplyDeleteMaganda nga sa Instagram ang Monterrazas de Cebu, pero hindi nadadala sa ganda si kalikasan. Pag ginalaw mo ang lupa, gaganti ang tubig. Ayan tuloy, baha sa baba habang kinang sa taas!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI live in a mountainous area of Cali na highly developing. Ive seen them na talagang tinatapyas ang mountain para magpatayo ng mga bahay. Ever wonder why they dont want to do what SY wanted to do? For sure marami na nakaisip ng aesthetic na ganyan pero kahit sa developed countries ayaw gawin ang ganyan. May reason and maybe what happened to Cebu might be one of the reasons. Wake up public officials.
ReplyDeleteBasta magka pera lang ano kahit madami mapeperwisyo at mapapahamak?
ReplyDeleteHindi lang yung pag cut ng trees ang problem yung lugar mismo dapat hindi tinatayuan ng houses syempre naalog yung lupa sa construction. Bundok is bundok. Ganda nga view mo pero buong province ang kawawa. Hindi mo na mababalik yung nangyari sa kalikasan. Umpisa pa lang ito ng problem. Pag nagkasunodsunod pa ang bagyo and malakas na ulan mas malala pa mangyayari.
ReplyDeleteYun mga nagko-comment na d naman yun area na yun yung binaha obviously d nyo alam impact ng change sa environment. Pag nagputol ka kasi ng puno sa isang area, d lang yun area.na yun ang pwede bahain. Like how the sierra madre protects the wholen of luzon or how the amazon provides most of our oxygen. E ang layo natin sa Brazil. Mge engeng kayo. Asan ang drainage ng ginawa nyang subdivision? Saan dinadala ang tubig? Isang puno lang putulin mo anlaki na ng impact sa mga wildlife, yan pa kaya isang buong bundok.
ReplyDeleteWe get your point. But napaka myopic ng hate nito. Focused masyado kayo kay Slater e yun nga since puro mountainous ang Cebu naka spread out ang developments in different mountain areas. The conversation should be, what should each developer do to make sure na ma contain or address ang issues of flooding sa lowlands. This narrative kasi has been flying out the window na and treats Slater as the reason why bumaha when in fact it is systemic- developers, government and people. Countries like Korea, Taiwan and Hongkong also have similar topographies pero what do they do differently? Dapat yun ang pinag aa ralan and ini implement. Inasmuch as we understand that issue on deforestation, we have to accept that cebu’s population is growing and so is its economy. There is a need for housing and industries and with limited flatlands, developments are brought to the mountains and the oceanside.
DeleteNapaka walang kwentang DENR. F*ING SELLOUTS. They should know that cutting trees will result into this pero binayaran. It's so infuriating
ReplyDeleteI-demolish lahat yan. Salot talaga mga mayayaman sa pinas.
ReplyDeleteYes this is one of the reasons aside from the palpak na flood control projects nila. Imagine destoying nature, it will get back to us eventually. Ayan ordinaryong tao nag susuffer while sila at mga corrupt na politiko are at the comforts of their homes having hot choco.
ReplyDeleteMga taga Cebu pinag tatanggol padin si Slater at mga politiko nila, edi kayo na, e enjoy nyo mga nangyayari diyan sa lugar nyo.
ReplyDeleteSino po na taga Cebu ang nagtatanggol ng politiko dito? I dont see a lot of Cebuanos blaming Slater but definitely hating on politicians esp yung nag Eurotour
DeleteWala naman daw tayo sa Cebu para mag reklamo. Punta daw muna tayo ng Cebu bago mag reklamo. Lubog na nga sila, papapuntahin pa tayo.
DeleteHindi naman daw binaha yung Guadalupe. Hintayin nila sa susunod na taon or bagyo, babahain na rin yan. Tuluyan lumubog sa baha sng Cebu. Deserve nila yan.
yan ang tinatawag na BISAYA PRIDE.. sana mailigtas sila ng pride na yan sa susunod na mga bagyo.... both of my parents are Cebuanos btw.... pero thank God hindi sila ganyan... pag mali ... MALI! wag i-justify 10:43!!!
DeletePati sana nga enabler celebrity friends nya meron pang multi awarded broadcaster (I think they’re family friends)na proud naproud sa kanya when he unveiled this project. Lahat siladapat ma call out for being enabler. I’m trying to find their congratulatory tweets before.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Guadalupe is not affected but the point is, mining, cutting off trees which is supposed to protect the people in times of calamities is being destroyed by these businessmen and officials all for the sake of money and greed. What happened in others areas will most likely happen in Guadalupe, ayan may pa sample na hu, and this is the worst in Cebu, right? The mountains are the best flood control and yet the people of Cebu are still defending the contractors.
ReplyDeleteReality check po sa mga defenders ni Slater saying na hindi naman binaha ang Guadalupe, hello po, binabaha na po sila since the start of the project. It may be not as worst as the other areas but the fact is, nung inumpisahan nila ang project na yan, nag start na rin pagbabaha sa kanila. Pero cge,since bulag bulagan nga ang mga Pilipino then hintayin nyo na lang na lumala sitwasyon nila diyan.
ReplyDeleteSinearch ko lahat ng places na binaha sa Cebu, ang layo pala talaga nila sa Monterraza, kilometers away. Yung mga places sa ilalim ng Monterraza hindi binaha.
ReplyDeleteHindi ganon kalayo, a few kilometres is not that far. Tingin nyo bakit tuwing nag fail La Mesa Dam apektado pati Valenzuela, Navotas, Caloocan, etc? Kasi dun sa low lying areas at tabing ilog napapadpad yung excess na tubig. Ang ibig sabihin lang non mas elevated ang Guadalupe, pero yung mga mas pababang lugar na kapitbahay nya ang kawawa.
DeleteLooks like hindi mo na check lahat 😁
DeleteBusay, Mambaling, Compostela, Lapu-Lapu City, Talamban, Consolacion, Minglanilla, Mandaue, Danao, Talisay
ReplyDeleteSearch nyo - ang layo sa Monterraza. Yung Guadalupe kung saan located yan, hindi binaha.
Wow, this is literally an "Ivory Tower" :D :D :D If I have the money, I would definitely buy a unit ;) ;) ;) Good job! :) :) :)
ReplyDeleteNakakatawa kasi hindi naman galit ang mga Cebuano kay Slater kasi hindi naman bumaha sa Guadalupe and sobrang layo nito sa mga binaha na lugar.
ReplyDeleteGalit po kami sa mayor ng Talisay na nag check in pa sa Nustar at sa Cong na taga Liloan na naka Euro tour tapos nagpa pandesal lang kahit nag submerge ang mga subdivisions na malapit sa Cotcot river.
Hala naku dati pa FP commenters warned about flooding but hey, no one listens to us kasi they think we’re all a bunch of marites.
ReplyDeletePinagtatangol pa nga ayun ang nakakaloka talaga! Porke hindi sila binaha nakakalungkot kawawa yung mga apektado.
DeleteIto at flood control projects panagutin!
ReplyDeletenakakagali! paano nabigyan ng DENR clearance to??? 3 Storey house construction nga katakot -takot na clearance at soil test ang kailangan!
ReplyDeletePure greed. Not only him but also of the officials who approved of the project. All greedy.
ReplyDeleteKung napatayo na yan jan ibig sabihin dumaan yan sa proseso at legal yan. Kasi sya din naman nagppromote nyan nuon at ngtrending. Madali naman yan malaman kung illegal. May nagrereklamo ba na mga experto at opisyal? Yung mga netizens lang naman na feeling alam ang lahat eh.
ReplyDeleteSus, nasa Pilipinas po tayo, when the price is right may permit agad yan.
DeleteTama to. Plus bat di sila nag protest noon nung ginagawa pa lang? Ngayon Lang? Di ko talaga gets mga Tao puro galit Alam. Hayst!
DeleteTanggol pa more😠
DeleteKasi hindi nakakakita at experience ng baha c Slater, experts at officials. Sa nangyari ngayon mas lalong kinakabahan mga taga Cebu sa project ni Slater sa bukid.
DeleteOh tapos? I hate people na feeling di apektado kasi di naman sila ang nakakaranas ng epekto.
DeleteWala namang nagsabi na illegal eh, but this project is more like IMMORAL and OUT OF TOUCH.
Delete10:48 gurl, it soooo obvious n kaya naging "legal" yan ay dahil sa pera and greedy people. I agree sa some commenters here n hndi dapat ifault kay SY ang baha ngayon dahil nsa ibang lugar ung project. But soon, babahain n rin sa Guadalupe dahil sa project nya.
DeleteKasi wala naman expert sa field din ni slater na nagsasabi mali yan. Kasi pwede yan isumbong sa government eh kalat nanaman na nagpapagawa na si Slater bakit walang nagpigil at nagsasabi delikado mga engineers, lawyers aaction jan. Sa true lang mahirap maniwala kung sa coment lng sa socmed tapos magbbash lang. Di ko kakampihan yan kong mali gusto ko lang din matuto.
DeleteCorrupt politicians & government officials.
ReplyDeleteGreedy businessmen.
May divine justice ba talaga?
Kasi masasamang tao ang mga umuunlad ang buhay at the expense and suffering of other people eh 🤦🏻♂️
Nagkalat mga taga Guadalupe .
ReplyDeleteFeeling ko yung nagko-comment in Bisaya is either asawa ni Slater or business partner niya. Gigil na gigil sa pagtatanggol eh! Hehehe Halos iisang tao lang.
ReplyDeleteMADAM GINA LOPEZ ONCE SAID "You have lost the moral ascendancy to rule the government because, to you, business and money is more important than the welfare of our people." I GUESS FOR GREEDY SLATER "business and money is more important than the welfare of our people."
ReplyDeleteNOW ITS STILL NOT TOOOOOOOOOOOOO LATE TO SAVE THE SIERAA MADRE!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's easy to point fingers pero siya Lang ba may kasalanan? Na fact check ba na dahil dun sa building na ginawa Kaya nag ka baha? Minsan kasi mahilig Lang makisawsaw. Be the part of the solution not be part of the problem.
ReplyDeleteIdea niya yan kaya nga Skypod 2.0. Maging success man yan, ma accredit sa kanya at kung magkaroon ng problema siya rin sisihin. Siya yung mukha nung project. Oo sa ngayon hindi pa binabaha yung area kung nasaan yung Skypod 2.0. Pero hihintayin pa ba natin dumating sa point na pati yang area na yan ay malubog sa baha?
DeleteThe price of too much greed. Mother nature need payment😩
ReplyDeleteSympre magflashflood talaga kase ginalaw nyo yung lupa eh at pinutol niyo din ang mga puno. Kahit nga bata alam yan e. Kahit anong tapal diyan or kahit pa magflood control magflash flood padin talaga. Ang tanong dyan bakit pinayagan at binigyan ng permit ng gobyerno.
ReplyDeleteego and greed
ReplyDeleteSKYPOD to SKYFLOOD
ReplyDeleteGreed plus ignorance is pure doom destruction. This guy is narc.
ReplyDeleteThe developers who paid the people in charge to approved the projects and the contractors who only thinks of money when they knew all along that the project is impossible in so many ways without consequences but still do it and the politicians in Cebu who got kickbacks are the ones responsible for it.
ReplyDeleteAng gagaling mang bash ng mga taong nag tatago sa socmed, ang hilig manisi kaya hindi umuunlad ang pilipinas! Slater agad ang may kasalanan?? Hay mga naman tao talaga
ReplyDeleteKalat na sa internet na ang dam ng subdivision ni Slater nag release ng tubig kaya bigla nagka overflow ng tubig. To protect the rich wala silang paki sa effects sa mahihirap. Sana pumalpak yang subdivision ni Slater yung kasing palpak ng bahay niya
DeleteAno to?? Fan?? Wag ganun.. ikaw ang problema kaya di umuunlad mag pinas, bulag ka. Ano dahil idol mo?? Yan ang pumapatay sa pinas, mga panatiko pati sa pag boto. Mulat mo mata mo. Not saying sya lang may kasalanan. But OBVIOUSLY HE’S PART OF THE REASON.
DeleteSimple lang ang issue. Sinira ang kalikasan para sa proyekto. Yon lang yon.
ReplyDeleteSimple - deforestation brings floods. Given na maraming factors and nagsamasama sa disastrous flooding sa Cebu, pero ang project ni SY na kinalbo ang bukid ay hindi nakatulong. Contributing siya sa paglala. Mabuti na rin na aware ang tao sa dalang kapahamakan ng kanyang proyekto.
ReplyDeleteHis very own home, the skypod has so many issues even ka bago bago pa lang. Slater is more into the aesthetics rather than the quality of his projetcs.
ReplyDeleteYou touched the mountain and it’s natural resources , this is what you e done.
ReplyDeleteAy totoo kasalanan nya yan kung ano anong landscape tinatayo mga puno pinagpputol!!!
ReplyDeleteNot defending Slater Young, but I'm wondering why this targeted hate on his project? Noon pa man the rich families in Cebu live in exclusive villages sa bundok. Matagal ng andun ang maraming naglalakihang mansions. Ayala Land was supposed to develop a high end village. Temple of Leah for Ellen Adarna's Lola nasa hills of Cebu, even Marco Polo Hotel and Tops na commercial places. The areas that were severely flooded are near rivers and along the coastal area. Kaya mas nakakatakot ang effect ng malaking reclaimed area sa Cebu City where the big malls, hotels and condos are being built.
ReplyDeleteay kaya naman pala baha... kawawa dyan yung nasa baba...
Deleteako din nagtaka, anon 1:12am...intay pa ako bago kumuda
Delete1:12 just to explain, iba kasi yung magtayo ng mga ordinaryong bahay na nakapatong lang sa bundok, versus yung design ni Slater Young na dinemolish at pinaguho na yung kalahati ng bundok. They pretty much cut the mountain in half to achieve their desired design. Hindi masama yung magtayo ng housing sa bundok pero iresponsable yung level of destruction na ginawa nung project nila.
DeleteSimple lang naman yan, nung nagawa yung mga binaggit mo, wala pang social media nun. Naitayo na, wala ng magagawa mga tao. Yung kay SY ongoing pa yung project kaya maraming tumututol.
DeleteIf you have enough money, you can easily bypass the "climate change" narrative :D :D :D
ReplyDeletePlaying God Kasi.Literal n rich man on a hill.
ReplyDeleteYung nag sasabi malayo naman daw ang guadalupe. Khat malayo yan sympre ung baha ppunta talaga sa lowest point. So imbes na naka tulokg ung bundok sa guadaluper, hindi. Raragasa ung tubig sa next lowest point.
ReplyDeleteExactly
DeleteAng dami nga sira ng mismomg bahay niya, ito pa kaya.
ReplyDeleteWala daw karapatan mag salita dito mga hindi taga Cebu. Edi sige po, good luck pag may future calamities diyan sa inyo.
ReplyDeleteBomoto din kayo ng tama next time.
Butterfly effect the smallest actions can create floods like this. Take care of nature and nature will take care of us
ReplyDeleteThe Philippines is HOPELESS because Pinoys will KEEP ON VOTING for criminals, thieves and political dynasties FOREVER!
ReplyDeleteHow is the view from up there? Ma guilty sana ang mga bumili and sana mag shut down and let environmentalists save that mountain.
ReplyDeleteAng tanong, and this is not to exempt SY from the blame, why did DENR allow this project, and similar ones before, which destroyed the forests in Cebu?
ReplyDelete
