Plaza Libertad

Plaza Libertad, formerly known as Plaza Alfonso XII, is a historic plaza or town square in Iloilo City, Philippines. It is considered the site where the flag of the first Philippine Republic was raised in triumph after Spain surrendered Iloilo, the last Spanish capital in Asia and the Pacific, to the revolutionary forces led by Gen. Martin Delgado on December 25, 1898. Plaza Libertad is located in front of Iloilo City Hall in Iloilo City Proper and is one of the six district plazas in Iloilo City. History Plaza Alfonso XII, named after a king of Spain, was constructed in the 1800s and is one of the oldest plazas in the Philippines. It was surrounded by most of the government offices in Iloilo. On Christmas Day of 1898, Governor-General Diego de los Ríos of Spain surrendered to the Filipino revolutionary troops led by General Martin Delgado in the Plaza, thus ending the 333-year-old Spanish colonization of the Philippines. After the surrender, the triumphant revolutionaries for the first time raised the flag of the First Philippine Republic in Iloilo City, the last bastion of Spanish power in the country. It was later renamed Plaza Libertad to reflect the event that happened on the plaza. On November 17, 2003, the National Historical Institute declared Plaza Libertad a national historical landmark. Rehabilitation On February 4, 2021, the rehabilitation of the plaza started with a cost of ₱19 million, funded by the national government through the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority (TIEZA) of the Department of Tourism. The rehab includes trimming of trees, landscaping, improvement of facilities, and lighting, among others. Gallery References

Metrobank Center

The Metrobank Center, formerly known as the Federal Land Tower and also known as the Metrobank Financial Tower, is a 66-story mixed-use supertall skyscraper in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, Metro Manila. Standing at a total height of 318 m (1,043 ft), it is the tallest building and structure in the Philippines, surpassing the previous record holder, the PBCom Tower, by 59 m (194 ft). The Metrobank Center was developed by the Bonifacio Landmark Realty and Development Corporation, a joint venture between Federal Land, Inc. (the real estate subsidiary of the Metrobank Group) and ORIX Corporation. Background The Metrobank Center is part of Federal Land's Grand Central Park mixed-used complex. The Metrobank Center is connected through a common podium with the Grand Hyatt Residences, a 45-storey condominium skyscraper. The complex has a second residential tower, the Grand Hyatt Residence South Tower which stands 50 storeys high. The building's pinnacle height is 318 m (1,043 ft) while its height up to its roof is around 259.1 m (850 ft). The Grand Hyatt Manila is a major tenant of the building. The hotel has 461 guest rooms and occupies the top 25 floors of the building. It also hosts three major restaurants, namely The Grand Kitchen, No. 8 China House, and The Peak. It also has meeting and events rooms covering 2,281 m2 (24,550 sq ft). Architecture and design Wong & Ouyang, as well as Casas + Architects Inc. were the architectural firms behind the Metrobank Center. Ove Arup & Partners was responsible for the wind, structural, and seismic engineering of the building. Arup devised its damp outrigger system to make the building resistant to seismic shock and wind. Concrete outrigger walls were installed in the Metrobank Center's two mechanical floors. History In September 2008, Taguig Mayor Sigfrido Tiñga announced that Federal Land will be building a 66-storey skyscraper that would surpass the PBCom Tower, which was then the tallest building in the country, in height. The construction of the building, then dubbed as the "Federal Land Tower" was scheduled to commence within 2009. The project would be formally unveiled by Federal Land in March 2011 with the groundbreaking ceremony taking place on March 24, 2011. Initially it was projected to be completed in 2014. While the building was under construction in August 2017, a fire incident occurred, though no injuries were reported. The marker at the hotel's lobby was unveiled in September 2017 by George Ty of Federal Land and Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. The hotel opened on January 23, 2018.

Culion Sanitarium and General Hospital

The Culion Sanitarium and General Hospital (CSGH) is a government hospital in the Philippines. It is located in Culion, Palawan and is the only general hospital in the Calamian Islands. It also serves patients in the rest of Northern Palawan. History The Culion Sanitarium and General Hospital traces its history to the Culion leper colony which admitted its first leprosy patients in May 27, 1906. The Culion settlement was noted to be the largest leper colony in the Far East region. Formerly the Culion Sanitarium, the facility began providing general health services in 1994. However its function as a general hospital was only formalized in November 13, 2009 via Republic Act No. 9790 and adopted its current name. While the history of CSGH dates a century back, the hospital considers 2009 as its establishment date. In 2014, a marker showing the facility's new name was unveiled by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines. In September 2024, the CSGH opened its dialysis center, the first fully government-funded facility of its kind in Northern Palawan. References

Fu costruito nel 1926 dai lebbrosi. Si trova sul versante nord-est della collina che sovrasta il porto. Per raggiungere la cima occorre percorrere una ripida gradinata di oltre 300 scalini. Sulla cima della collina è stata posta in epoca recente una grande statua di Cristo. L'aquila e la statua sono ben visibili dal mare quando ci si approssima al porto di Culion. Trasporti Esiste un aeroporto privato (sigla IATA: CUJ) utilizzato per voli locali. Al momento non vi sono voli di linea che fanno scalo a Culio. Per raggiungere Culion ci sono due possibilità: in aereo fino a Busuanga e da lì prendere una banca che dal porto di Coron raggiunge Culion in circa un'ora e mezza; in nave con la Viva Shipping Lines che fa regolare servizio di linea da Batangas City, via Coron.

Escull de Fiery Cross

L'Escull de Fiery Cross (en xinès: 永暑岛; en tagal: Kagitingan; en vietnamita: Đá Chữ Thập) es refereix a un grup de tres esculls en la vora occidental de Dangerous Ground a les Illes Spratly del Mar de la Xina Meridional. El 2014 la República Popular Xina es va iniciar l'activitat de guanys de terres al mar, transformant l'espai en una illa artificial d'aproximadament 230 hectàrees. La zona està controlada per Xina (República Popular Xina) (com a part de Sansha) però també és reclamada per Filipines (com a part de Kalayaan, Palawan), Vietnam i la República de la Xina. El territori ha estat ocupat per la República Popular Xina des de 1988, quan va instal·lar una " estació d'observació Marina de la Unesco". Hi havia al voltant de 200 tropes xineses en l'escull a finals de 2014, encara que aquest nombre és probable que hagi augmentat significativament el 2015 amb la incorporació de personal de suport per a la nova base aèria i el lloc de radar d'alerta primerenca associat. Durant 2014 el govern de la República Popular Xina va començar les obres per a la construcció d'una gran illa artificial per albergar una pista d'aterratge i un port marítim al·legant que altres països tenen projectes similars a l'àrea.

Fiery Cross Reef

Fiery Cross Reef neboli atol Ohnivý kříž (čínsky Jong-šu tao, 永暑礁, pch. Yǒngshǔ Jiāo; vietnamsky Đá Chữ Thập; filipínsky Kagitingan Reef, v tagalogu Bahura ng Kagitingan) je atol v oblasti Spratlyho ostrovů v Jihočínském moři. Fiery Cross Reef je největším ze tří atolů (spolu s Mischief Reef a Subi Reef), na nichž Čína počínaje rokem 2014 vystavěla umělý ostrov s letištní plochou a vojenským zařízením, a to i přesto, že její nárok na tyto atoly je zpochybňován dalšími zeměmi v regionu (především Filipínami a Vietnamem). Fiery Cross Reef se současnou rozlohou 274 hektarů představuje největší pevninu v oblasti Spratlyho ostrovů. Čína na atolu v letech 2014–2015 vybudovala letištní dráhu o délce zhruba 3300 m, na níž v lednu 2016 přistálo i první civilní letadlo. Necitlivá monumentální nástavba na většině atolu měla za následek rozsáhlé zničení zdejších cenných korálových útesů. Přes oficiální proklamace o mírovém zájmu začali Číňané na umělém ostrově umisťovat vojenská zařízení. Podle satelitních snímků jde o „nejpokročilejší z čínských základen“ ve sporných oblastech Jihočínského moře, na níž stojí 12 přístřešků se zatahovacími střechami pro mobilní odpalovací zařízení. Má dostatek hangárů pro umístění 24 bojových letadel a čtyři větší letadla. Přistávací dráha odpovídá vybavení pro čínské bombardéry. V červenci 2016 odsoudil čínské stavební aktivity ve sporném regionu na základě filipínské žaloby mezinárodní Stálý rozhodčí soud v Haagu. Současně s tím byla také odsouzena čínská koncepce Linie devíti čar, o niž Čína své nároky opírá, která však odporuje mezinárodnímu námořnímu právu.

Arrecife de Fiery Cross

El Arrecife de Fiery Cross​ (en chino: 永暑岛; en tagalo: Kagitingan; en vietnamita: Đá Chữ Thập) se refiere a un grupo de tres arrecifes en el borde occidental de Dangerous Ground en las Islas Spratly del Mar de China Meridional. En 2014 la República Popular China inició la actividad de ganancias de tierras al mar, transformando el espacio en una isla artificial de aproximadamente 274 hectáreas. La zona está controlada por China (República Popular China) (como parte de Sansha) pero también es reclamada por Filipinas (como parte de Kalayaan, Palawan), Vietnam y la República de China. El territorio ha sido ocupado por la República Popular China desde 1988, cuando instaló una "estación de observación marina de la Unesco". Había alrededor de 200 tropas chinas en el arrecife a finales de 2014, aunque este número es probable que haya aumentado significativamente en 2015 con la incorporación de personal de apoyo para la nueva base aérea y el radar de alerta temprana asociado. Durante 2014 el gobierno de la República Popular China comenzó las obras para la construcción de una gran isla artificial para una pista de aterrizaje y un puerto marítimo alegando que otros países tienen proyectos similares en el área.​ Véase también Geografía de Asia Islas Spratly Arrecife Referencias
Récif de Fiery Cross

Le récif de Fiery Cross est un récif situé dans les îles Spratleys en mer de Chine méridionale. Il est contrôlé par la république populaire de Chine depuis 1988, date de la construction d'un « observatoire de la vie marine », mais est revendiqué par les Philippines, le Viet-Nam, Taïwan, le Brunei et la Malaisie. Le récif est contrôlé par environ 200 militaires chinois. Depuis 2014, la Chine a effectué un remblayage d'une partie du récif et construit une grande ile artificielle de 2,74 km2 pour permettre la construction d'une piste d'atterrissage de 3 125 m et d'un port. La Chine a effectué un test d'atterrissage de deux avions civils sur cette piste en janvier 2016. Revendications Le récif de Fiery Cross est, comme tous les autres îles de l’archipel des Îles Spratleys, revendiqué par plusieurs États : Taïwan ; les Philippines ; le Viêt Nam ; Brunei ; la Malaisie. Effectivement, cet archipel constitue un lieu stratégique, notamment pour son grand espace permettant de récupérer des ressources halieutiques, mais aussi des ressources naturelles (gaz, etc.).
