Interviews
Proof that Marikina has order, discipline and good character
Jun Aguilar, City Planning Officer of Marikina City
“Marikenos love their river very much being it’s only natural resource. It is for this reason that the local government took pains to rehabilitate the river and transform it to a sports and recreational center—the biggest in the country in a natural setting. Marikina has become Metro Manila’s eco-tourism showcase.”
Francia, Lucban Hats
The owners of Lucban hats were originally from Quezon. They brought with them the craft of making hats. It is in Marikina that their business flourished with the help of their Marikeno workers.
“Under the present leadership, the Marikina Shoe Commission has been revivved to help boost the local shoe industry,”
Japs Santiago, owner of JAPS shoes
“Pag may naghahanap ng mga sapatos, tinuturo ng munisipyo dito. Kahit mga tricycle drivers, pati Otto pag kulang ang sapatos dito tinuturo. Pag ako naman ang walang display, doon ko naman din tinuturo,”
John Lim, concessionaire of Café Kapitan
“This place has historical importance. The previous mayor gave us the chance to take care of the place by being a concessionaire of Café Kapitan.:
Oliver, tour guide
“Tawag nila sa menudo ay waknatoy galing sa “huwag na ‘toy” kasi laging handa sa fiesta. Ginawa ng mga taga Marikina, dinagdagan nila ng ibang sahog tulad ng pickles para maiba naman ang lasa at itsura.” Adrienne Zacarias,
Marikina citizen
“At first, the citizens were resistant to the changes but when they saw the effects of the reinforced laws, they became cooperative and eventually proud of the results.”
Airene Angeles, Marikina citizen
According to Ms. Airene, garbage collection is really organized and garbage segregation is really followed by every one.
Ariel, Sapatero
“Onse anyos pa lang ako sapatero na ako. Ito na ang nagpa aral sa akin at sa mga anak ko.”
Christy, Mag-aareglo
“54 years old na ako, lahat ng anak ko marunong mag areglo. Pagkatapos nila manggaling sa school, gagawa naman sila ng sapatos.”
“Ako mag aareglo, asawa ko sapatero, lahat ng anak ko marunong rin sa sapatos.”
