Last I heard, hindi pa naman batas ang "every square meter of land has to earn money".

Pero pwedeng pwede naman gumawa ng batas ang gobyerno (kung wala pa) na pag magtatayo ka ng mall, condo, office bldg, school or any commercial establishment, kelangan may kasamang parking area yan tintayo mo, at obviously mag cause ng trapik yan once matayo na. No parking area, no building permit, no ifs, no buts.

The law is there sometimes to control people's greed. Kung puro greed paiiralin natin, WWIII na tayo matagal na. Just my opinion.

How come some establishments can offer free parking? And the proposal says there is a minimum spend naman.

SM Southmall and Metro Walk free parking. Metro mall in Alabang has free parking for a minimum spend. Market Market used to be free parking. S&R used to be free parking for unlimited hours, I think they only imposed the 2 hr limit when parking became difficult at BGC. I have a thing for paying for parking, it's not really about the money but whether an establishment has free parking or not has a big influence on where I am going. Kaya I prefer going to establishments that are not in the mall, para free parking

wow may ganyan ba ka-pro-business na politician?

"solon wants mall owners to maximize return on investment -- make customers pay for airconditioning"

Cathy girl matipid ka din ah,

Kasi kung iisipin malaki yung 30pesos na parking na good for 3 hours lang. Nung college days pa ako. syempre katas pa ni daddy at mommy pera ko eh wala ako pakialam punta ng mall sa galleria tapos bayad parking. Pag naboring lipat ng megamall bayad ulit ng parking. Kung tinatamad punta naman shangrila another parking. hahahahahaah

Pero ngayon hindi na mangyayrari yan.

Sa 30 pesos konti na lang idadagdag ko makakain na ako french macaron.

coz if they charge parking they'll lose whatever edge they have left

yung mga siga alam nila kahit may bayad ang parking pupuntahan parin sila

**uls** · July 24th, 2014 07:24 PM

madami mga previously may free parking may charge na

noong bago palang sila kailangan nila mag attract ng customer so free parking is an incentive

ngayon kilala na sila pwede na sila mag charge

--

pag libre ang parking gagawin lang sila parkingan ng mga commuters

park at the mall and take bus or MRT

pay parking discourages that

sa province ganyan naman ang nangyayari ngayon. SM Pampanga, Robinson's Starmills (Pampanga), SM Clark, and any other malls there, libre lang parking. Oh well, sana naman hindi maging paid parking ang mga 'to...

Yung circle-C dati free parking kaya pag pasok mo wala ka makita na parking slot. Kasi yung mga kuripot na sumusundo ng mga anak nila dun sa katabing school e dun nagpa-park. So nag-charge ng P20 parking fee, ayun nawala yung mga kuripot di na dun nag park nyehehehe!

Tama lang may bayad ang parking. Yung mga ibang tao pumupunta lang ng mall para magpa-aircon. Libre aircon na nga libre parking pa. Kahit na sabihin na may minimum purchase na P500 di pa din ayos. E di everyday na lang maggro-grocery ng P500 instead na every week na P2500 e di free na parking niya for the week.

At ano pa incentive ng mga mall owners para pagandahin ang parking facilities nila kung wala nang kikitahin? I would rather pay than not have anything at all.

Paborito kong malls dati fisher mall and centris dahil free parking. Ngayon may bayad na din. Dapat libre maski 1hr lang. Grabe kasi pag may kailangan ka lang bilhin na 100 pesos or less napapamahal pa dahil sa parking. Lalo pa kung sa sm annex ka pupunta 45-50 pesos ata parking doon.

**ozcity** · July 24th, 2014 08:16 PM

should be 2hrs free, then the next hours doon sila maningil ng mataas

here in AU almost all shopping mall free ang 1st 2-3hrs yung suceeding hrs mataas ang fee kaya pwersado ka talaga lumabas ng parking lot
