Blocked Fenced Sidewalk
This fenced sidewalk is where Bayani Fernando wants us pedestrians to walk. People inch their way through posts and cables when going to and from the SM City North EDSA's SKY GARDEN and across EDSA. What a mess during rush hour. And by the way... how about those persons riding in wheelchairs?
People like Bayani Fernando wants to put the city in order at the expense of ordinary people. They want the world to see how beautiful Manila is by covering the slums with colors known for MMDA. This sidewalk is just an example of how hard it is for the ordinary people to live in the city. They have to walk for hundreds of meters just to get to the nearest bus stops.
Travellers from the province has to spend another half kilo of rice at least when going to Manila because the only bus stop is still another ride when they could have alighted nearer. Of course, his reason is to put the city in order, but he is not pro-poor. He only thinks of the rich car owners annoyed by passing pedestrians. He only thinks of how the world will negatively describe EDSA.
Not to mention the iron fence business... of course.
