Mayor Isko Moreno reveals one of the reasons why he’s making Manila beautiful: “Para makipagtulungan sa layunin ni Pangulong Duterte”

Mayor Isko Moreno said that he’s trying to make Manila City beautiful to help President Rodrigo Duterte in his goal to attract foreign investors to build their business in the country.

During his weekly capital report, Moreno said that Manila City could affect the view of the foreign visitors and investors about the country and if the capital looks dirty and chaotic, it might give a bad impression to the image of the Philippines.

“Ang Maynila ay kapitolyo ng bansa… the window of the country… what you see in Manila as if its the country and it will be unfair for Cebu City, for Davao City, Iloilo City, Ilocos, Bicol or anywhere in the country for that matter,” Moreno said.

“Mula Aparri hanggang Jolo kapag nakita nilang magulo ang Maynila akala nila magulo na ang Cebu, magulo na ang Davao, magulo ang Norte, magulo ang Bicol… unfair po yun sa kanila,” he added.

Moreno also pointed out that one of the reasons why he’s doing his best to clean the capital city of the Philippines is because Malacanang is located in Manila, where some of the foreign investors and representatives of other countries are visiting to meet the President.

“Kaya pinipilit namin pagbutihin ang paglilinis sa kapitolyo ng ating bansa kung saan pansamantala rin nating hino-host ang ating Presidente na si Pangulong Rodrigo Roa Duterte, na kung saan ay hinihikayat niya ang mga banyaga na mag invest sa ating bansa upang lumago ang ating ekonomiya at makapag bigay ng trabaho sa ating mga kababayan,” he said.

“Kaya ninanais po namin sa aming maliit na kaparaanan, na makipagtulungan sa layunin ni Pangulong Rodrigo Roa Duterte na kung silang mga pupunta na investor para sa bansa ay makikita nilang maayos, kaiga igaya ang lungsod ng Maynila, dahil ang Malacanang ay nasa lungsod ng Maynila,” he added.

He also urged the people to help him to achieve his vision in Manila.
