Let me tell you Two Stories:
First story was back in 2006, I just came from a seminar from a Filipino-Chinese business organization with the thoughts of being a successful entrepreneur. I was in Binondo at that time and decided to see for myself the scenic route on foot on what then the good mayor of Manila (Lito Atienza) on the part of Sta. Cruz area which was closed to vehicular traffic to foot traffic and caused mayhem and traffic in that part of Sta. Cruz and Binondo as vehicles are rerouted out to cross Jones Bridge to Taft Avenue.
