A bevy of superstars f r o m movielandia will be the super attraction at the inauguration of Dumaguete City’s biggest service mall, tomorrow, Monday at 10:30 AM. No less than one hundred stores will open its doors to the public, of which fifty are national chain stores, the rest are locally owned.
Robinsons Malls is soaring high once again as it opens another new addition to its prestigious mall chain portfolio – Robinsons Place Dumaguete. Now counting in their 27th shopping mall development in the country, Robinsons is celebrating not only the opening of the mall but the heartfelt support and great anticipation of Dumagueteños and Negrenses -from the time it landed its feet in the City to the time it stood up and officially geared up for business.

Wow, potential place for pick-up girls to hang out and good competition for the boulevard red light district. I hope the prices will start to go down with more choices.
I hope NORECO 2 will increase the brownout/blackout frequency. Instead of every Sunday, they will make it Friday-Saturday-Sunday.
“old city” the city of no entry! this is the only PLACE where you can find lots of parky boys. ang samang tingnan nag susugal pa sa tabi…
“old city” the city of no entry, naiiba ‘to sa mga robinsons sa buong pinas. the place has lots of parky boys na nag susugal pa sa tabi…
maayo unta ang dgte cockpit gi balhin sulod sa robinsons or i relocate na.
guys you are just seeing the bad things. think of the economic progress this place will bring.
think of the jobs-from the janitors, maintenance men and the managers of the stores! their income will always augment the family income.
with robinson’s in dumaguete, what do you think of SM, Rustan’s and the rest of the big chain of stores locating in dumaguete.
people from southern cebu, siquijor and northern mindanao would surely come to the city. of course there will be peripheral disadvantages but the overall effect would surely be positive.
…mabuhay taga negor. maswerte po kayo. people living close to robinsons are very lucky. no more brown-outs on that areas. unfair Norico 2, residence under feeder 2 ay ala ng brown-out. yon kasing mga residence na dati na sa feeder 2 ay inilipat na sa feeder 6. binigyan po ng special treatment ang robinsons. so malimit na ngayon ang brown-out sa feeder 6, low voltage pa kamo. papano kasi ang daming consumers ang feeder 6. nasan na nga ba si Mr. Jones ng dygb he’s my IDOL…
KOLOKOY, uyun ko kaayo aning bulangan balhinun sulod robinson,samot ka daghan customer sa robinson.
actually, correct si tagajawa ang concern ko lang that area is getting heavy traffic. and to ease the traffic from ceres to robinsons esp on sundays why not relocate the cockpit school. i think the city council has laws regarding the cockpit location di ba .
it is always expected nga naa parke boys. as long as dili mangitag away sila ok ra na. Ang Robinson start ra ni para musolod ang dagko nga investors like SM. Ingon sila almost all places if these two giants compete, wa pa daw napilde ang SM. Pero in the meantime nga wa pa SM, patronize sa ta gyud sa Robinson kai wa pa man tai choice.
wa nabay laing komentario kon di puro binuang nalang, kanang maayo pras dumaguete.
my ni ky daghan na sila mabulahan og makapili ang katawhan, mapobre man o dato, tan awa ang mga kompaniya sa eroplano banat og pabarato
hoi riclamo, ang sama mo naman…wag kang manlait ng ganyan…kapwa mo nilalait mo, crab mentality talaga…mabuti yan sa dumaguete na meron na silang robinsons,,, we should be happy for that, di yun naninira pa..sama ng ugali mo, kala mo naman kung saan ka galing…
We should also build a church, mosque, synagogue, and other places of worship adjacent to the cockpit so that after the prayers, it would not be hard for the gamblers to just cross over to the cockpit to gamble away their monies.
leave them to their own to all those whose interests are just to make fun and do not contribute to the general welfare. it’s the way of life, probably to get rid of the boredom and the helplessness to go home and live in dumaguete/negros.
it is their thing to amuse themselves.
those of us who care for the rest of our kababayans in dumaguete and negros, let’s try to contribute and say something to awake the sleeping politicians. that theirs is a mandate to govern and provide for the general welfare and not for themselves only.
tama si kolokoy, move the cockpit somewhere else, where cockfighting can be held legally without disturbing the peace in an area. there are national laws regarding the location of cockpits and other types of “for adults only” entertainment. it should be implemented by the government. the issue is: can the lgu do it, when most of the politicians are the patrons themselves?
bisan adto pa na ibutang ang bulangan sa dobdob, valencia, moadto gyod nang mga sabungero, bisan pag magdungan ang duha ka bagyo. most likely, a very wide cemented road will be built going there for the benefit of all sunday school classmates!
what are you talking riclamo? i think you need an anger management 101 a therapy actually
