I agree. Plus, I'd rather see the Philippines as greener, cleaner, and more orderly. There's no point having supertall buildings when there are still squatters living in squalor in other parts of the city. It's just a "yabang" point that we should and could not afford - yet.
A super tall building with a small building foot print is more environmentally friendly than a 3 to 4 story building with a very huge building foot print. Look at HongKong, they manage to maintain and preserve 70 percent of their forest since their own government limits the urban development to a maximum of only 30 percent of the total area of HongKong.
@@moymoythehappymonkey3155 That's true BUT the Philippine land situation is hardly comparable to Hongkong's. At any rate, that's what has been done at BGC and other business centers but would hardly apply to most parts of the Philippines.
As of now we don't need super tall buildings. We need to improve the transportation specially trains and bridges to connect all the province from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.. And also if posible to connect Sabah. We need more investors here in the Philippines and lowering the electricity
Philippines doesn't belong in top 10 in terms of the world's super tall buildings, but try to look their Shopping Malls and indoor Arenas. You'll be surprise. And for me it's for practical to first prioritize those kind of buildings than to have a super luxury supertall super iconic super expensive buildings. Shopping Malls and indoor arenas are far more flexible and plenty of use compare to supertall iconic towers. 😅 (just my opinion).

Yes, Before having Supertall Skyscrapers, we must Prioritize the Welfare of every 110M Filipinos, such by Cracking Down on Corruption, Educating all Filipinos to Discipline like the Japanese, and Singaporeans, building at least 10 Lines of MRT/LRT in Metro Manila by 2030, and more.
Kaya dapat si Robredo nanalo kasi nasa economic plan niya dapat transparent lahat ng pulitiko sa pera nila. Eh kaso si Marcos nanalo and ayaw niya ipakita mga wealth ng mga kasama niyang corrupt 😂
Marina Bay Sands of SIngapore, THe Shards, The Gherkin & Walkie Talkie of London, Sydney opera house, & Burj Al Arab are not famous because of their height but because of their "UNIQUE" design so for the PHilippines, I prefer to have an outstanding, out of this world designed skyscaper rather than a super-tall one.

No, we don't need supertall skyscrapers. Just an iconic landmark, like Sydney Opera House. Doesn't have to be tall. It just needs to be unique, iconic and Filipino - ish structure.
That's a bad investments. Sydney Opera House is an expensive fancy building. You don't believe me, read: Sydney Australia's iconic Opera House is actually a study in a project failure. Its original plan had a four-year timetable and an AU $7 million budget, but in the end, it took AU $102 million and 14 years to complete.

@@braunx1080 of course we Filipinos..fyi think and analyze having a very tall and iconic building it can improve our tourism industry..every building made there is a purpose and add improvement to a country. And who told you its not needed? You? That no analysis?
It's good to have a landmark that will challenge Grand Hyatt Manila in terms of supertall status. And we really need a supertall skyscraper to be a tourist spot that will define not only the Metro but also the country as a whole.
@@dindohaducana4398 buhay ang tourism sa Dubai because of its skyscrapers not of its beaches. wala ngang beach sa metro manila kaya nga naghahanap ng supertall. isa ka pa.
Bkit sa europe myroon bang pinakamataas na building? Ang kailangan ng pinas malinis wlang squatter,walng spaghetti at maganda ang mga road🌴🌴🌴🌲🌲🚅🚄🚐🚎🚌 lalo ang public transport😀
A tall iconic building can be another tourist spot. Just look at Petronas Tower of Malaysia, Taipei 101 of Taiwan, Skytree of Japan, Burj Al Arab of Dubai. These super tall structure attract a lot of tourists. People in power just lack vision and political will.
skyscraper doesnt define how country is rich, even the philippines is home of the largest and most iconic malls in the world so that would be they considered as a rich?
I prefer seeing walkable streets, better mass transport, better housing, parks and more trees, green buildings, and redeveloping wasted lands or squatters area than developing untouch land or mountains. 😌😌😌
I am glad that none of those proposed towers were built. From a design perspective, they maybe iconic but downright ugly except for the proposed Icone Tower. I could see these structure built in North Korea for example but not in Metro Manila. Stunning and iconic skyscrapers are those found in Dubai, Doha, New York, London, and Hongkong.
True. "Iconic" doesn't necessarily have to be super tall. It's more like a really unique design that sets it apart from the rest. It becomes the identity of a place, country, or city. A great example would be the Pyramid at the Louvre Museum in Paris, designed by I.M.Pei.
They're found in Chicago where the first one was made. The phillipines doesn't need a megatall tower. Its showcase is the natural beauty of how it exists the mountains, jungles and beaches, and the beauty of the people of the phillipines. Most of the mountains are taller than 1000ft anyways. Is it really neccessary ... Chicago is still an influential world city, and does not have a megatall. Focus the rest of the building initiatives on finishing up or completing the rest of the country's interconnecting infrastructure. Building only one building for the sake of only rich ppl who will use it because they will be the only ones such a building would serve, is not a smart or senseful idea. Create the infrastructure neccessary to handle the traffic. If phillipines wants to continue to improve by utilizing western techniques it needs to create the infrastructure neccessary to cut down on traffic and tagal or wasted time. Gotta not only build, but hustle behind it too. People visit the phillipines for a vacation on the beach or hiking the mountains for a view because its cheap. Not because they want to stand in line for an hour to go take a couple pics with the dusit thani sign behind them lol. Travelers, if you want a tall view, go to people's park in the sky in tagaytay city. Its an observation post ontop of a mountain. You can see the taal volcano rising from the water in the distance, surrounded by beaches islands mountains and jungle. Very unique landscape only found in a few places, but the phillipines does it best. And its affordable
@@gbknowledgeinfo9047 Hey mate...I tned to disagree. The Shard in Southwark comes to mind. Go to London often enough to see how the skyline is slowly changing.
If the Philippines can build superstructure bridges that wil connect all its 7k plus islands, then Philippines will be in the Guinness book of world record that no one can defeat.
We have regular typhoons and earthquake here, beside tall buildings is just a showcase of grandstanding, pride and ego we must be realistic about what we really need, We need thousand of mid rise and high rise housing units to solve our cancerous basic shelter problem.
Exactly. And it's all about quality, safety, order, cleanliness, good access to quality services, better infrastructure, etc. Even just looking at Paris. They preserved the historic buildings and tall skyscrapers aren't needed to attract tourists. Similar to many European cities. I think European cities are more ideal to emulate, rather than North American and some East Asian cities. They have it down when it comes to proper high-density urban spaces, walkable cities, green spaces, services that are easily reachable on foot/public transportation, etc.

I agree. They need to build affordable housing so the squatters can be relocated there for better life. Help the poor first. They have enough tall buildings
if prosperity is the goal....,build bridges or link all the islands not skyscrapers.....or more airports thats the big problem between islands.....transportation ....logistics...
if anything, build multiple medium-sized apartment buildings that will ACTUALLY get filled instead of some half-empty vanity tower where the other half only the absurdly rich 1% can afford.
Cities with iconic skyscrapers like Taipei, Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo, Dubai, New York have good adequate public housings. It would be very disturbing and unfitting to see a costly skyscraper in Metro Manila while millions dont have adequate homes (squatter areas). Address needed urban services first before jumping to costly decorations!
Here in Nuvali we dont need high rise sh1t buildings because we enjoy the beauty of the natural landscapes and we can accomodate business offices without building such.

The Philippines and Japan share the threat of natural disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons. Also, Japan has only two supertall buildings, and until this year, there was not a single supertall building in Tokyo.
We need more connectivity to each other with better roads & trains, no more power lines above ground with no brown outs, super speed internet everywhere, but NO SKYSCRAPERS
Yes, We really need to Fast-Track the Construction of Manila's Rapid Transit, if I become Mayor, I will do a Major Fast-Tracking, by Encouraging Construction Companies to Use Prefabs, and 3D Printing.
Heaven forbid Intramuros and the old Spanish part of Manila (and the other old Spanish style cities established during the Spanish era) be torn down for gigantic skyscrapers. Many European cities dont even have skyscrapers in their downtowns (Paris is a perfect example).
I've heard that since early 2000. PH was bared to construct super tall buildings because of the location fo the airport. Taguig BGC has building height limit too, and also PH is prone to disasters like the supertyphoons and earthquake. Theres a reason JAPAN doesnt build skycrapers even though they are very good in technology its too risky knowing they just have experience huge earthquakes. I want the PH to build a big staidum instead like an olympic stadium with a capacity of 100k.
Philippines is still developing to be a economic power by 2040. no need for tall buildings, landmark yet. Remember We slept for 30 years of no progress during the aquino and yellow dark ages. So we could have been economic power earlier. PBBM and PRRD are fixing our problem and recovering fast
we need to be self-sufficient in food. we are currently importing rice, sugar, fish, vegetables, even salt. Cheap and abundant supply of food will make Filipinos happy not seeing tall buildings around we do not own.
Exactly. At bakit why are we importing rice sa Vietnam when we should be exporting rice worldwide to Europe, south America and USA. Filipinos may not own big tall buildings downtown, pero, some familes do have many lands, rice farms and plantations. Why cant the phillipines be the #1 exporter of rice and exotic fruits to the rest of the world? Illinois sells its soybeans n corn worldwide and its only 1 measly state. Why cant the phillipines
We don't need supertall buildings....what the PHILIPPINES needs is Modern RAILWAYS,AIRPORTS,SEAPORT, BRIDGE'S a public TRANSPORTATION, and good ROADS for a better connectivity in the whole archipelago.And if I may add something power plants so we can have lower electricity rates and for our energy security in a booming economy like the 🇵🇭👍
so sad no super tall building in my country😰😰 cose all cancelled of more reason, no1 reason is corruption and high elec bill.. hope no longger have it in cebu, Iloilo, or davao🙄👍💪🙏
Look at these examples:Australia with Sydney Opera House and Taj Mahal of India. These infrastructures are not the tallest but popular. The Philippines can have ICONIC Building that doesn't need to be supertall. I would like to have in the country a Statue of Diversity like the Statue of Liberty in America.
building high towers is not suitable in the philippines, we are a land of typhoons and earthquakes. why not invest fixing problems like water shortage,garbage disposal system, renewable energy and greener phils? that what makes more filipino proud.
A super tall building with a small building foot print is more environmentally friendly than a 3 to 4 story building with a very huge building foot print. Look at HongKong, they manage to maintain and preserve 70 percent of their forest since their own government limits the urban development to a maximum of only 30 percent of the total area of HongKong.
Europe isnt that rich... They look rich coz they have very low population thats why GDP per capita is high there... And people are well educated thats it

You hv to be mindful about earthquakes. The taller the structure the higher the centre of gravity. So it becomes unstable. I think taipei 101 is a risk for taiwan as there are earthquakes in taiwan too. Same with jakarta.
also many people like to saw ph's tallest skyscrapers soon like the Burj Khalifa in dubai that has an world record in doing that.Iam also designing 2 skyscrapers(i am still G8) filipinos are good in designing ,hmm...what if their will be a megatall/supertall building in any part of the philippines.
Kapag natapos na Ang New Manila Airport at natuloy Ang Sangley Airport pwede na isara Ang NAIA at idevelop kagaya ng ginawa sa old airport sa Makati noon. Napakalawak na space nun maliban na Lang kung gamitin ng air force Yung property kasi nandun lang sa tabi ng NAIA Ang Villamor Airbase.
We need industries and jobs, so that after 25 years I can go home. Wait until the next big earthquake. It's been 25 years since the last earthquake. That's the way to know the buildings are structurally sound.
Even without, Philippines economy is growing by leaps n bounds, growing more than some of its ASEAN counterparts... take los angeles for example. A city known worldwide, but it has maybe only 1 or 2 buildings barely over 1000ft like the phillipines Hyatt. Yet almost a third of California population and industrial output comes from la county... Manila is also like that.... but has 10 million more ppl in less than half the size of los angeles
@@devinatompong4765 Metro Manila (BGC, Makati city, Pasig city etc..) have a lots of incredible modern tall buildings that beat skycrapper of KL, Jakarta, Bangkok,Hanoi, ho chi minhi ok?
i dont find tall buildings appealing since they only blocks view. for example, italy ,france and germany japan have gorgeous and modern cities, but none of them have super tall buildings. im oppose to giant concrete rectangular structure as it proves that to be a modern city , it doesnt have to have mega tall building.
Pag natapos na ang New Manila Intl Airport and Sangley Intl Airport, isasara na ang NAIA at icoconvert into business district. Pwede nang literal na sky's the limit ang labanan.
We don't need a supertall skyscraper. Our country still has a lot of cities that need development. Better focus on spreading investments in other cities
iconic suoertall is to be constructed by private entity why people here are complaining about it and suggesting better Infra proj instead , eh si govt ang gagawa nyan hindi si private. si govt pa nga makikinabang sa impact ng suoertall
makati and bgc are world class. we dont need super skyscraper. what we need is a cultural tourist destination. like intramuros and binondo restore the old look and develop the area.
I mean, they are difficult to construct. Or send 20-40 construction workers to complete it in just 5 years. We just need world-class roads and transportation. I don't know if it will have the top spot for the tallest building in the world.
From what I know, height restrictions are imposed on buildings in Metro Manila due the natural disasters and the proximity to the airport. In my opinion super tall skyscrapers may look cool, but a lot of them lay empty because no one wants to rent their spaces. This is commonly seen in places like the Middle East, particularly in Dubai and as also in China as well. They are going to be waste of money and resources if no one rent and occupy them.
The Philippines don't meed to build high rise buildings over 60 - 70 stories high....what the Philippines need are iconic designed buildings that are world class..
i have dream we build like tallest building in the Pilippines likeFreedom tower / One World Trade Center or Petronas Tower ..soon Manila Airport will transfer there is a chance for Supertall Building
Nah, we don't need such tall buildings. Never in a quadrillion years. The country can still rise in some other ways that's for sure. Uniqueness always kills the giants, if you know what I mean that is.
PH dont need high or super tall buildings. Filipinos need world class roads and transport system.

Yes, We really need to Fast-Track the Construction of Manila's Rapid Transit, if I become Mayor, I will do a Major Fast-Tracking, by Encouraging Construction Companies to Use Prefabs, and 3D Printing.
Kailan kaya talaga magkakaroon ng iconic supertall ang pelepenz?
Pag may pampagawa ka na

Very nice explanation
Keep me posted. Thanks
Heaven forbid Intramuros and the old Spanish part of Manila (and the other old Spanish style cities established during the Spanish era) be torn down for gigantic skyscrapers. Many European cities dont even have skyscrapers in their downtowns (Paris is a perfect example).
Bat naman sisirain ang Intramuros? Intramuros is an important part of history. Kung may babaguhin, siguro yung others parts ng Manila City na lang
We're always last, lost and least when it comes to everything. We are even surpassed by Vietnam, Cambodia, or Nigeria.
I dont care about supertall bldg..we need more train.
I've heard that since early 2000. PH was bared to construct super tall buildings because of the location fo the airport. Taguig BGC has building height limit too, and also PH is prone to disasters like the supertyphoons and earthquake. Theres a reason JAPAN doesnt build skycrapers even though they are very good in technology its too risky knowing they just have experience huge earthquakes. I want the PH to build a big staidum instead like an olympic stadium with a capacity of 100k.
With hollow blocks?
a tall skyscraper is useless if there is not enough open parks or greenspaces infront of it.
we need more trees and parks to improve our air quality
PH only needs one significant tallest building that embodies the soul of the city and country.
Philippines go go go go
Just wait and see there will be more BGCs to come here in the country God blessed 😊👍
No need for a supertall.
Take out those spaghetti wires, more subway lines, zero squatters: these things are necessity NOW. Not a Supertall.
Philippines is still developing to be a economic power by 2040. no need for tall buildings, landmark yet. Remember We slept for 30 years of no progress during the aquino and yellow dark ages. So we could have been economic power earlier. PBBM and PRRD are fixing our problem and recovering fast
We need more super structure BRIDGES between Luzon to Visayas to Mindanao.
we need to be self-sufficient in food. we are currently importing rice, sugar, fish, vegetables, even salt. Cheap and abundant supply of food will make Filipinos happy not seeing tall buildings around we do not own.
Exactly. At bakit why are we importing rice sa Vietnam when we should be exporting rice worldwide to Europe, south America and USA. Filipinos may not own big tall buildings downtown, pero, some familes do have many lands, rice farms and plantations. Why cant the phillipines be the #1 exporter of rice and exotic fruits to the rest of the world? Illinois sells its soybeans n corn worldwide and its only 1 measly state. Why cant the phillipines
So true. I have gone to BGC and Makati, and all the tall buildings will make you feel left out.
the ddt skytower will soon to be built and it will stand at 280m
ipa tuloy bayan idol sa iconic tower baka hindi yan tuloy😓🤔🤔🤔🙏🙏🙏🙏
The Pacific Ring of Fire says: “ge, go lang” 😈
We don't need supertall buildings....what the PHILIPPINES needs is Modern RAILWAYS,AIRPORTS,SEAPORT, BRIDGE'S a public TRANSPORTATION, and good ROADS for a better connectivity in the whole archipelago.And if I may add something power plants so we can have lower electricity rates and for our energy security in a booming economy like the 🇵🇭👍
Princesa Tower and the SJS Maritime Empire could potentially be the provincial-level supertall buildings.
An iconic building can boost tourism..
How about both?
Running down the stairs from 17th floor during an earthquake is bad enough already.
so sad no super tall building in my country😰😰 cose all cancelled of more reason, no1 reason is corruption and high elec bill.. hope no longger have it in cebu, Iloilo, or davao🙄👍💪🙏
Look at these examples:Australia with Sydney Opera House and Taj Mahal of India. These infrastructures are not the tallest but popular. The Philippines can have ICONIC Building that doesn't need to be supertall. I would like to have in the country a Statue of Diversity like the Statue of Liberty in America.
Sydney opera house and the like might be a government project but tall building are built by business people for their business interest.
That's right. Who cares about tall buildings. You need great roads, efficient rail system, seaports, etc.
✌️👊✌️✌️🇵🇭👍♥️😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏😯👏 ,...L14!!!
But the Philippines lagged behind in these 3 vital sectors: Manufacturing, Energy Production and Agriculture
Energy Production and Agriculture pwede pa masulosyunan pero yung Manufacturing di natin yan kaya, sobrang mahal sa Pinas 😂
building high towers is not suitable in the philippines, we are a land of typhoons and earthquakes. why not invest fixing problems like water shortage,garbage disposal system, renewable energy and greener phils? that what makes more filipino proud.
I don't know pagcor tower will be office or residential
Europe doesn't have super tall building most of it are old European non glass style but they are rich.
A super tall building with a small building foot print is more environmentally friendly than a 3 to 4 story building with a very huge building foot print. Look at HongKong, they manage to maintain and preserve 70 percent of their forest since their own government limits the urban development to a maximum of only 30 percent of the total area of HongKong.
@@moymoythehappymonkey3155 boysit
Europe isnt that rich... They look rich coz they have very low population thats why GDP per capita is high there... And people are well educated thats it
@@gbknowledgeinfo9047 why america big population,but most powerful
@@dantesalazar7805 where big population bro... They are just 300 million... If india and china had 300 million population then they both countries would be more rich and powerfull that USA... its just a game of poplation... Otherwise china and india would have more GDP per capita than western countries 😇
You hv to be mindful about earthquakes. The taller the structure the higher the centre of gravity. So it becomes unstable. I think taipei 101 is a risk for taiwan as there are earthquakes in taiwan too. Same with jakarta.
Daming comment na Ayaw talaga sa pag unlad ng bansa. Bakit Kaya ganun mindset ng mga Filipino. ? Pa atras lagi
also many people like to saw ph's tallest skyscrapers soon like the Burj Khalifa in dubai that has an world record in doing that.Iam also designing 2 skyscrapers(i am still G8)
filipinos are good in designing ,hmm...what if their will be a megatall/supertall building in any part of the philippines.
Meron naman taung supetall a. Grand Hyatt sa BGC is 318 meters tall.
Only spire antenna not floor 250m floor height
Kapag natapos na Ang New Manila Airport at natuloy Ang Sangley Airport pwede na isara Ang NAIA at idevelop kagaya ng ginawa sa old airport sa Makati noon. Napakalawak na space nun maliban na Lang kung gamitin ng air force Yung property kasi nandun lang sa tabi ng NAIA Ang Villamor Airbase.
We need industries and jobs, so that after 25 years I can go home. Wait until the next big earthquake. It's been 25 years since the last earthquake. That's the way to know the buildings are structurally sound.
jeddah tower was already abandoned.. there is new site of development in saudi the neon city
neom city not neon, in the province of tabuk
There have super tall buildings in Philippines you can find it in Makati City & BGC, The Philippines skycrapper is incredible.
Haha dwarf building compare in asean especially in kuala lumpur and vietnam above 400m
Even without, Philippines economy is growing by leaps n bounds, growing more than some of its ASEAN counterparts... take los angeles for example. A city known worldwide, but it has maybe only 1 or 2 buildings barely over 1000ft like the phillipines Hyatt. Yet almost a third of California population and industrial output comes from la county... Manila is also like that.... but has 10 million more ppl in less than half the size of los angeles
@@devinatompong4765 Metro Manila (BGC, Makati city, Pasig city etc..) have a lots of incredible modern tall buildings that beat skycrapper of KL, Jakarta, Bangkok,Hanoi, ho chi minhi ok?
i dont find tall buildings appealing since they only blocks view. for example, italy ,france and germany japan have gorgeous and modern cities, but none of them have super tall buildings. im oppose to giant concrete rectangular structure as it proves that to be a modern city , it doesnt have to have mega tall building.
Pag natapos na ang New Manila Intl Airport and Sangley Intl Airport, isasara na ang NAIA at icoconvert into business district. Pwede nang literal na sky's the limit ang labanan.
For safety purpose we dont need so much high buildings because we are earthquake prone,we are located in the Pacific Ring of Fire
We don't need a supertall skyscraper. Our country still has a lot of cities that need development. Better focus on spreading investments in other cities
We don't need tall towers, what we need are healthy citizenry, educated people, good infrastructure for transportation and mobility
iconic suoertall is to be constructed by private entity why people here are complaining about it and suggesting better Infra proj instead , eh si govt ang gagawa nyan hindi si private.
si govt pa nga makikinabang sa impact ng suoertall
makati and bgc are world class. we dont need super skyscraper. what we need is a cultural tourist destination. like intramuros and binondo restore the old look and develop the area.
I mean, they are difficult to construct. Or send 20-40 construction workers to complete it in just 5 years. We just need world-class roads and transportation. I don't know if it will have the top spot for the tallest building in the world.
BASTA MGA PINOY ANG NAG PLANO PURO DRAWING AT PANAGINIP LANG
Philippines has a huge and beautiful skyline but no urban planning for residentials.
no way SMC or Ayala or Pangilan group wont compete on the tallest building in the philippines
From what I know, height restrictions are imposed on buildings in Metro Manila due the natural disasters and the proximity to the airport.
In my opinion super tall skyscrapers may look cool, but a lot of them lay empty because no one wants to rent their spaces. This is commonly seen in places like the Middle East, particularly in Dubai and as also in China as well. They are going to be waste of money and resources if no one rent and occupy them.
gramercy was supposed to be the country's first supertall
Once money flows in (by loosening foreign ownership requirements), the corruption will reduce.
Ang ganda na ng Grand Hyatt para sa akin😊
🇵🇭👍👍
The Philippines don't meed to build high rise buildings over 60 - 70 stories high....what the Philippines need are iconic designed buildings that are world class..
i have dream we build like tallest building in the Pilippines likeFreedom tower / One World Trade Center or Petronas Tower ..soon Manila Airport will transfer there is a chance for Supertall Building
Going business in Cebu, Davao,,Pampanga, including Bacolod city will surely drive the economy rather than a super structural building
Nah, we don't need such tall buildings. Never in a quadrillion years.
The country can still rise in some other ways that's for sure. Uniqueness always kills the giants, if you know what I mean that is.
Philippines already has one supertall and its in the middle of the thumbnail 💀
