Manila Bay Resorts to rise in 2015

The Tiger Resort, Leisure and Entertainment, Inc., (a subsidiary of Universal Entertainment Corporation, led by Japanese tycoon Mr. Okada, Kazuo) developer of the ambitious Manila Bay Resorts project, proudly shared its lofty goals in line with the ongoing construction of the 44-hectare facility to rise within the Entertainment City complex in Paranaque City come 2015.

Top honchos president Masahiro Terada and vice president Kenji Sugiyama met with members of the press to share their ultimate vision for a huge and integrated resort with the three-hotel property (each a 15-storey-structure) bound to be home to the biggest casino in the country. The said Resort is touted as a natural, desirable addition to Manila Bay's cultural and commercial venues, with expectations of two plush hotels, a six-star and a five-star at that, and around 20 food and beverage destinations, retail and spa facilities, and residential properties.

"Our target is to really attract lots of people, local and foreigners, and in the process be of great help to the Philippine economy and employment," stated Sugiyama whose background includes being a world-class hotel asset protection chief.

With emphasis on providing high class, safe entertainment and recreational activities, Manila Bay Resorts promises to be a go-to destination among Filipino families, foreign tourists, and fun-loving individuals of exquisite taste. Its hiring initiative will more or less generate 15,000 employments for Filipino job-seekers.
The 30,000 sq.m-casino alone, to open 24/7 and expect 20,000 daily guests, will have more than 500 table games and 3,000 machines to offer, while its man-made beach resort will boast an impressively looking 100-meter diameter indoor Glass Dome.

Considering that the country is currently engulfed in earthquake scare brought by the 7.2 magnitude tremor that just shattered Bohol and neighboring provinces, the Japanese-standard construction being employed in Manila Bay Resorts obviously delivers great news to everyone. Japan is known as an earthquake hotspot, thus, the use of Japanese technology in strengthening the complex means more significant safety assurance.



Apart from hotel development, the Tiger, Inc. has also opened its doors to community involvement through the project, having helped the victims of recent typhoon Pablo by donating a rice supply worth Php 2.5 million. A new effort of similar nature is being spearheaded, this time to provide assistance to victims of the devastating earthquake in the Visayan region.

Sugiyama expressed in connection, "It is part of our mission to extend a helping hand to those in need."


The extent of wanting to make a positive impact to the country's economy is also embedded in Tiger's plan of giving tax contribution off its casino cash flow.


Believing that luxury signifies attention to detail, originality, exclusivity, and above all, quality, Manila Bay Resorts is seen as a state-of-the-art dream vision of producing more than a thousand spacious hotel suites, topnotch restaurants, world-class banqueting, 24-hour butler service, among others. There will also be a good blend of international luxury brands, jewelers, and specialty stores in three unique areas, including one called the "Jewel Square."

With ethos that echoes "anything in the spirit of fun," it is a place to change the face of entertainment in Asia.

[NEWS] A Philippine Real Estate Firm Eyes Cebu as a Perfect Place to Build Business Infrastructures

A Philippine real estate in cooperation with an international partner plans to build a retirement village and a hospital facility in Northern Cebu.

Recently, Everjust Realty Development Corp., and an international partner held a meeting regarding their agreement about management and operations of the said projects. Thus, facilities can adopt international standards and at the same time can achieve an international accreditation.

In a new report, the firm’s president is considering 5 years for the construction of the projects.

According to the Everjust Realty President, Justin Uy, the 10-hectare retirement village is set to be built in Consolacion while the Hospital facility is set to be constructed in Mandaue. Both infrastructures will be located in Cebu.

Uy further said that the development of the said retirement village and hospital facility in Cebu is meant to push the firm’s expansion into the tourism industry

Cebu is a perfect domicile for retirees. Retirees can easily get attracted to such places where they become close to natural wonders as well as urban conveniences. In fact, Cebu can be directly compared to Hawaiian Islands like Honolulu and Maui.

Also, the Philippine Retirement Authority (PRA) attested that Cebu is one of the most preferred places for retirement outside the Philippine’s capital city.

Moreover, aside from the said Philippine Real Estate firm, the Philippine economy can also earn a great profit from the said projects. A study from a health care business intelligence firm, Healthcore revealed that from 2006 to 2010, Philippines earned about $1.30 billion in healthcare and wellness services from foreign tourist and overseas Filipino works (OFW) or the “Balikbayans”. In a speculation, Philippines has the capability to profit as much as $1 billion to $3 billion each year by 2018 if it would pursue investing on health care infrastructure and offer more extensive travel arrangements for medical tourist.

The said study also previewed that the Philippines can have a chance of getting a larger market share in the global medical tourism industry if further similar projects will come out in the country like a raging trend.

This will be a multi – purpose project which will benefit not only the said Philippine real estate firm but also the Philippine economy. It would definitely be a plus factor for the Philippines considering that the country was finally recognized as one of the booming players in the multi-billion dollar industry.
