Good job sir! Started off as depressing as possible in showing the state of pedestrians in our country and ended the lecture on a very positive note, filled with hope and good news of you and your group's intentions to fix such issue. Nasali pa isa sa mga ped xing here in CdO which just shows the very importance of sound and healthy city planning. VIVA MADAFAKAS!
SURPRISE *METROPOLITAN ALLIANCE TO DEVELOP AND FIX ALL KANTOS AND SIDEWALKS*
I chanced upon Long Conversations last night and Paulo was one of the guests, which led me here. I love how he fully understands the plight of pedestrians and the reasons/issues why it persists. i hope he does convince our politicians and secretaries to change their mindsets from car-centric to people mobility-centric development. though it's easier said than done since the first thing they say is "what's in it for me?" and motorists are louder than pedestrians when it comes to being heard/noticed.
Keep on with your efforts to improve our country ! from an Albarracin who takes pride in UP Diliman and Argao Cebu roots.
This one's gold!
Very entertaining but so sad of what our streets have become. Hopefully the recent national street clearing and the still on-going clearing operation in Manila should bring back our side streets to the people. I also know that the new Manila Mayor is listening to your advice. More power to you.
What a sense of humor!
What happened to the Ortigas plan?
MMDA chairman and DPWH head must be a Professional Architect.. Totoo yun na worst sidewalk yung pagbaba ng mrt ortigas station.. walang utak nagdesign nung stairs papunta at pababa ng mrt.. wala nang madaanan ang pedestrians at sobrang panghi n dun. sa gabi napakadelikado din.. dapat dun gibain at ilipat.. bwisit din yung mga poste sa mga sidewalks.. sakit sa mata.. kung ikaw eh nakapunta n sa ibang bansa at maikumpara mo ang sidewalks duon sa sidewalks sa atin ewan ko nlang kung di sumakit ulo mo..
ahahha è stato fantastico

"PEDx" in the title, are they taking the piss out if the speaker; it does kinda of sound like he says PEDx at the beginning weirdly.
