A night with the newest bing sutt style theme store in Manila,  named "YUMMY BOX.PH" with their Chinese food best-sellers. I was surprised, when, I received a message coming from the owner of this Chinese Food Chain named Mark Tiu, it will be the first time since pandemic that I was invited to promote or to have a food review on a certain food establishment like Cabalen, Himawari, Moon Bar, Mesa and many more to mention. So, we make an ex-deal collaboration. The location of Yummy Box. PH is in Manila, and I live in the south, even, if the invitation is in the afternoon, dinner time. I grab their invitation,  because I'm curious, about what YUMMY BOX.PH offers to their clients. Also, I wanted to help them to gain more exposure in digital world even if they already have loyal customers who loves their YBX dishes on their area.  What is bing sutt? it means ice room in cantonese, a place where people to meet, take a break, have a coffee in a trendy western treats. And Yummy

As part of the company's sustainability efforts, SM Supermalls, through its corporate social responsibility arm SM Cares, is once again joining the world in observing Earth Hour, with this year’s theme "Shape Our Future," focusing on how we can work together in halting and reversing climate change and nature loss by 2030.

   SM KSK Urban Farmers from Pasay City The private sector plays a significant role when it comes to economic growth in the Philippines by generating more jobs and contributing to our gross domestic product (GDP). Beyond that, it is also considered to be a driving force for inclusive and sustainable development in the country as more and more businesses employ corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives to address social and environmental concerns within the communities where they operate. By helping improve the quality of life of the people in these host communities, business is able to flourish. As such, CSR has become a key pillar of successful business management through the years. SM’s visionary founder, Henry “Tatang” Sy, Sr., put it best in his principle that social development and investment go hand in hand with business growth to achieve a better future. The SM group has embraced the responsibility to contribute to nation building through its social good arm, the SM Foun

SM CARES: Promotes a sustainable living for everyone.

  Today, living an eco-friendlier life has become much more manageable. With many simple yet effective ways to make our everyday lives more sustainable, and with many groups ready to help us take that first step toward a greener future, there is every reason to start today. Living a personal sustainable lifestyle can be impactful only if we do it together to preserve our planet for generations to come. One of the best things to live sustainably is to reduce your carbon footprint. Many seemingly harmless daily activities can contribute to a higher carbon footprint or other greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere, leading to dramatic climate changes. An increased carbon footprint includes high electric consumption, driving our cars over short distances, and the excessive use of aerosols and air conditioners, to name a few. Try to identify and minimize these activities if you can, or look for more eco-friendly alternatives, if available. You can also lower your carbon footprint by using

SM reinvents ‘Building on Stilts’ as a Climate Resilient Design for the Future

Floods and rising water levels brought about by typhoons are perennial problems in Marikina city, which is considered as one of the low-lying areas of Metro Manila. During typhoons, Marikina River’s water can rise up to 23 meters compared to its normal average level of 13 meters. While this causes the communities surrounding the Marikina Watershed to be underwater, SM Marikina stands tall, serving as a safe haven to its neighboring communities. The secret? It is sitting on 246 stilts. SM City Marikina is uniquely designed. The 6-hectare mall property which is located within the Marikina River Watershed is an elevated mall built on top of 246 stilts. “A critical part of building climate resilient structures is to understand weather patterns and how it affects the environment where your city or building will be,” explained Architect Fides Garcia-Hsu, Vice President of SM Engineering Design and Development (SM EDD). “During the design phase of SM City Marikina, we considered the long-ter
