SM Prime’s China strategy shifts toward founder’s home province
------
What started as a single mall in Xiamen 25 years ago is now shaping SM’s future in China.
The group is focusing new investments on Fujian, home to its largest mainland assets and the birthplace of founder Henry Sy Sr.
The opening of its first hotel in China signals that the strategy is evolving beyond retail, even as SM continues to pour billions of pesos into expansion projects across its core Philippine market.

don't stop with GDRs. The PSE is probably the only EM exchange still doing auction. many of our peers are doing MM or hybrid. it's the only way to stabilise liquidity. brokers need to step up if that MM on individual stocks happens and consider being market specialists.

Sa ilalim ng panukalang ito, maaari pa ring mamuno ang isang pamilya sa iba’t ibang antas ng pamahalaan.
Pero kung sila ang nakaupo sa taas, at sila pa rin ang nakaupo sa baba, hindi ba nananatili pa rin ang konsentrasyon ng kapangyarihan?
Pwede pa ring magbaba ng kontrata at proyekto ang isang senador o kongresista para sa kapatid niyang gobernador. Pwede pa ring gamitin ng isang gobernador ang kapitolyo para ipitin ang kalaban ng anak niyang tumatakbong mayor. At pwede pa ring gamitin ng isang pangulo ang buong puwersa ng gobyerno para pagtakpan ang korapsyon ng pinsan niyang kongresista.
At isa pa: hindi pa saklaw ng panukala ang party-list. Kaya pwede pa ring maging district representative si mister, habang si misis naman ay nakaupo bilang party-list representative.
Taliwas ito sa diwa ng Konstitusyon. Hindi nito winawakasan ang paghahari ng mga dinastiya, kundi ginawa pa itong legal at bahagi ng sistema.
