Netizen Expresses Frustrations & Disappointments over Trash in Front of JP Morgan Building In BGC

mcp Dec 13th, 2014 76 Comments

While Sweden has been making history in the world of recycling its trash, The Philippines has been struggling to upgrade their solid waste management system due to low budgets and lack of expertise. The small nation of Sweden was already ahead of the game since 2012. Back then it was only 96% of their trash and the remaining 3% moved up in just two years. Now that is impressive.

Their aggressive recycling policy goes in an order of importance: Prevention, reuse, alternatives and disposal in landfill. This year, only 1% of their waste goes to the landfill.

Meanwhile, Frances Estrada Arcadio took to Facebook to vent her frustrations and disappointments over trash in front of JP Morgan Building in Bonifacio Global City.

On her Facebook account she wrote:

Infront of JP Morgan bldg. May tumubong bagong mga bulaklak - coffee cups at cigarette butts ang tawag. Tanim ng mga taong ismarte manamit, inglisero at inglisera, matatalino daw pero mga wala naman pakundangan at malasakit sa kalikasan. Saka magrereklamo kapag binaha. Nakakalungkot lang isipin dahil sa kapwang nagpapanatili ng kalinisan wala din silang pakealam sa pinagpaguran.

Fort Bonifacio has completely changed the game in terms of urban development in Metro Manila. In your first visit to the Fort, the one thing you’d ever notice is how the place is so different than the the central business districts in Makati, Ortigas, Quezon City and Manila. Because of these things, BGC has fully become the place to do business in by government offices, private companies, and startups.

A city’s clean image is directly linked to how the city manages its waste. Visitors have observed the ample number of colorful trash cans in several public locations in the city. Since all of the buildings in the area are owned by developers, a proper waste management program is usually in place to ensure that trash does not destroy the clean image of BGC.

But in reality, the greatest challenge really is how to discipline the people.

Peek-a-boo

Yan ang mga taong selfish at walang disiplina palibhasa mga baboy at walang urbanidad. Hindi tinuruan ng mga magulang ng tamang pagtapon ng basura e ang daming basurahan sa lugar na yan.

Walang basagan ng trip!

Mga yogi people linis linis din pag may time. Lumalabas ang tunny na anyo kung san san lang nagtatapon ng basura.

Maybe…..just maybe…if we had a trash can present every few steps away just like in HK, people would actually throw them properly instead of leaving them else where.
- Bartolina
  
  may basurahan man o wala it’s still our responsibility to throw them properly sa tamang basurahan. Don’t wish na maging katulad ng sa HK dahil may basurahan man o wala ang Pilipino walang disiplina at maraming excuses parang ikaw. I’d like to assume isa ka sa mga gumagawa nito based on your comments. Di kasi acceptable ang reasoning mo na if we had a trash can present like in HK. Maybe you can look around —nagkalat ang trash can sa lugar na yan.

  See that purple box in the photo? I think that’s one of those bins.

  Hey son all trash or waste should be recycled. Nothing should be wasted. Metal, glass and paper have been recycled for decades. Now plastic is finally getting more attention. By the way KORKRAWR can you check that dumpster and grab that for your mom.

Respect people.

Companies should start paying for the waste that their produce creates. the more mass their packaging creates, the higher payment. Their produce brings waste into cities, making them profit, so they should be obliged to pay for landfills and garbage processing companies.

Not be surprised with the Philipino mentality. The Philippino’s need to stop this. Generation after generation in a hopeless third world country is not going to solve anything.

Mga walang utak nakakahiya kayo. Lakas nyo magreklammo sa gobyerno pero kayo mga sarili nyo di nyo kayang tulungan mga sarili nya.

Philippinos love to blame their government for everything. No no no nothing is my fault…. IT’S ALL THE GOVERNMENT!!!

Those ‘squatters’ should go their respective province. Look what they’ve done to Pasig River. Look like a trash can. They thought there is a good life in Manila because of bright lights. They have no discipline in managing their waste. They just throw it anywhere they want.

Ito ang mukha ng bansang saradong Katoliko at bansang mahusay sa Ingles.Ang mga Hapon ay mahina sa Ingles pero maunlad sila. “Cleanliness is next to Godliness” kasabihan ng mga Katoliko,pero ano ang malinis dito?

Kailangan kayurin, kayasin at sunugin ang CANCER ng Bansang Pilipinas! CHAROT

Kaya ang image ng Pilipinas sa ibang bansa ay bansa ng Iskwater at basura ay dahil dito.Ang mga turista pagbaba ng eroplano ay hindi lamang magagandang view ang nakikita kasama narin ang ibat ibang bagay na katulad nito.Sabi ng kasamahan kong Kano sa trabajo ay “I don’t want to go to P. I. coz I don’t want to die of polluted water”.

Kailangan magkaroon ng accountability tayong mga pilipino kaya hindi umaasenso.

Filipinos are poor bastards because they choose to…go on to the countryside and start farming lazy fucks. Ang tatamad nyo basura lang di pa maitapon.
trashytalk

Abbie.B

Yan ba uso sa BGC?
EOP

Bukod sana sa English only policy, Sana isama sa code of ethics ng kumpanya nila na mali ang pagtatapon ng basura ng sa kung saan saan. Ang dugyot kasi tingnan I just find it so hard to believe na yung iba walang pakialam. Just my two cents.
pinoyhenyo

Naku Hindi lng jp Morgan employees gumagawa Nyan
babe

Maglagay kasi ng basurahan diba?

I used to be a CC agent and trainer but I have never considered my intelligence to be above anyone else’s, even that of the drunK buffoon ‘the one’. Spelling and English fluency doesn’t measure one’s intelligence. But yes, I get it, you, too are entitled TO your own opinion.
Oh to get back to the topic, we all should learn how to responsible citizens no matter what IQ level, degree, economic or social status we have.

  People from the call center industry is no longer the same as it was before, the standard? It’s way different. I just hope that companies like Chase and other corporations too not just in call centers will take this into consideration and include cleanliness as part of their company ethics. Filipino people wake up!
Jo jo

why don’t you try to be a call center agent.. then you’ll know that they are not “just call center agents”.. ^_^ just saying

Wow that’s sad I’m filipino too and I’m lucky to be living in the US now. I hate metro manila because of this.

Filipinos are dirty people. They worship and praise White people but they hate other Asians. They let White people come into their country and molest their children.
Gerald88

No one cares about this trust me. These call center agents only care about money.
Thrillmountains

This world has its DIRT poor and its FILTHY rich. And often the dirt poor reside in countries like the philippines where the leaders are filthy rich.

There is a job opening in the UK “Prince William, Kate looking for super servant to run household ” I bet half the Philippines will apply. Good luck.

      innogame already circled the light blue trashcan. and there is also a purple one right before that. im surprised you did not see it since innogame is already pointing it out for you.
taga_net2

there are plenty of trash cans around BGC, but a lot of trash on the ground and plants especially areas near the bus stations. The one near Net1, dalawang hakbang na lang hindi pa maitapon ng maayos ang basura!
bgcagent

eh hindi naman kasi nakikita at visible ang mga basurahan dyan lakihan at maging visible sana and wala bang street sweepers sa lugar na to? trabaho nila angmaglinis ng kalat all the time!
- innogame
  
  Sa bgc ka ba nagttrabaho? May basurahan dyan sa pics o. So kapag wala kang nakitang basurahan, itatapon mo na lang kung san san yung basura mo?
piggyback

Mga baboy na call center agent kasing baboy ng trabaho nila, pangangaliwa, pagiging kabit, mga pariwara ang buhay, puro yosi at inom, resulting into pagiging baboy.
