UrbanEast breaks ground for The Gardens at South Ridge, their newest upscale subdivision project in Catigan, Toril, Davao City.

By mid 2018, a new commercial and residential subdivision project will rise in Catigan, Toril. The project is called The Gardens at Southridge, a Php750-million 7-hectare project owned by Urban East Developments Inc. The Gardens at South Ridge is an exclusive Italian-Mediterranean themed community that will only have 187 lot and house and lot packages. Six house models will be available for sale – two bungalow type units and four 2-storey houses. Lot area for these houses range from 180 square meters to 224 square meters. Lot only purchase is also offered.

 

The groundbreaking for The Gardens at South Ridge was headed by UrbanEast Developments Inc. President Edward Bernardo.

“It’s going to be a flagship development because from the design process, from the way we cut the property, and masterplanned it to include all components and the way we also applied a very consistent theme so it’s an Italian-Mediterranean theme all throughout which you will notice immediately just from the gate, the clubhouse, from the units. It’s a very consistently-applied theme. It’s also going to be a green community. The response had been positive so far. We only launched it a few weeks ago but some of the properties have already been started to sell so we’re very encouraged”, said Bernardo.

“The community will offer the perfect suburban living set in a highly accessible area. It also guarantees relaxing and tranquil setting that will bring peace of mind to all its future residents, making it the perfect community choice for the upscale market, specifically the high-end Davao investors, investors specifically in South Mindanao, OFWs, foreigners, businessmen, and professionals,” said Romylene Carillo, UrbanEast Developments, Inc. Marketing and Sales Officer.

The Department of Agriculture (DA) said it inked a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with a local farmers’ group and a listed firm for the construction of a $200-million rubber-tire factory in Mindanao.

Under the MOU, the DA, Philippine Rubber Farmers Association (PRFA) and Phoenix Petroleum Philippines Inc. have agreed to invest in putting up the Pilipinas Agila Tyre Manufacturing (PATM). Agriculture Secretary Emmanuel F. Piñol said PATM is the first homegrown tire-manufacturing company.

“Other Asian countries have already established their own tire-manufacturing company, why can’t we also do that? A tire factory in the Philippines will also mean a stable income for the country’s growing number of rubber farmers,” Piñol said in a statement released on Wednesday.

The signing of the MOU was held in Malacañang and was witnessed by President Duterte and Trade Secretary Ramon M. Lopez on Tuesday.

Piñol said the DA would assist in conducting the preparatory activities for the establishment of PATM in Mindanao, including its feasibility study. “PATM would be a game changer in the local rubber industry.”

The DA said the construction of PATM would be facilitated by Phoenix in partnership with Finnish tire-manufacturing company Black Donuts Engineering Inc. (Black Donuts).

Under the MOU, PATM would source its rubber requirement from members of the PRFA.

In January Piñol invited the executives of Black Donuts to visit the Philippines for possible investments in the Davao and Cotabato areas, which accounted for a combined 42-percent share of the country’s total rubber output in 2016.

In an interview in January, Rodolfo L. Galang, interim executive director of the Philippine Rubber Research Institute—an attached agency of the DA—said the proposed 50-hectare rubber-manufacturing plant could produce at least 4 million tires a year. The tires are suitable for regular cars, pickup trucks and other small-type trucks, Galang said.

He said 40 percent of tire production is made of natural rubber, which averages around 10 kilograms per tire. The goal of producing 4 million tires per year would require at least 16 million kilograms of rubber, or 16,000 metric tons (MT) annually.

“We are producing enough yearly requirement, around 110,000 MT a year, but our consumption, according to our data, is only around 30,000 MT,” he said.

Mindanao accounts for 99 percent of the country’s rubber production, according to
government data.
