NAIA 1 Renovation and Rehabilitation Proposal

More details here: http://technogra.ph/2011/10/28/kenneth-cobonpue-budji-layug-royal-pineda-head...

From the Facebook page of Filipino designer Kenneth Cobonpue:

"A pro-bono proposal from Budji Layug, Royal Pineda and Kenneth Cobonpue in cooperation with the National Competitiveness Council of the Philippines.

Its time someone did something about the worst airport in the world. So we made this design because we believe that no matter how beautiful our country is, our airports give the first and last impressions. This plan is relatively inexpensive and simple to adapt. The plan also involves renovating the interiors to allow faster flow of travelers between security, immigration and departure.

The first step has been done. Lets hope our government moves on this proposal quickly."

New facade but same old crocodiles in the immigration counters.

It's not as good as it claims to be. It's all about aesthetics on the outer airport. What about the improvements on the inside which will improve passenger experience? Frankly, a lot can be improved like the immigration lanes. It's so cramped! The check-in counters area is very small. They can get rid of the spaces the banks and exchange centers occupy. They should also improve lighting and make it brighter. The baggage claim area has yet to see better days. And improve the WASHROOMS..please!!!

when they find out that they have to pay the P750. many have spent all their money and can only pay in US dollars. what's worse, i've heard (not 100% sure) that if you pay in US dollars, you do not get change in US $. i am sure many travelers who do not plan to visit the philippines again are dumbfounded when they get the change.

[TheMojojojotang]

finally, the P750 terminal fee we pay every time i travel is going somewhere. in the future, they should get rid of the terminal fee counters altogether. if they still want passengers to pay the terminal fee, just include it in the ticket. not having counters for terminal fees means more space, less hassle, fewer complaints, a more relaxing airport experience and a better reputation for the phils. not many airports charge passengers for terminal fees. first-time visitors are usually shocked...

@SnappyHip

oh well if ya put it that way then theres nothing wrong.carry on!!

[SnappyHip]

@SketchupDesigns12 i think there's nothing wrong being proud of being Filipino but it's already something wrong when we keep on boasting about something that still needs to be solved, and I don't like the trend we have now, everytime a Filipino becomes famous my FB livestream is flooded by I AM PROUD TO BE PINOY, I'm like what the, aren't they concern of the 97 million Filipinos out there? It's ok to be proud but not to the extremes wherein there is not much to boast about.

@SnappyHip

[mysims500]

[ruelito81]

@zugizorocker gago ka...wag mo ibato sa OFW ang problema ng airport, kung wala kami matagal ng wala ang Pinas....eh ikaw may nagawa ka na ba sa PInas?? isa kang ungas katulad ng mga buwaya sa NAIA...

[SnappyHip]

@1818JoseRizal1898 i think the first step in changing the whole country, is to change the Filipinos' negative attitude first, I grew up abroad and all my life I looked up to my countrymen with positive values nurtured in them but I turned out to be wrong when I arrived in the Philippines, I had culture shock.

[turontado117]

GALING TALAGA ANG GANDA NG EXTERIOR EH PROBLEMA NGA AY YUNG INTERIOR NG AIRPORT EH. AT IF EVER NGA NA MAG IMPROVE YANG AIRPORT NA YAN . HINDI PADIN MAG IIMPROVE MGA EMPLAYADO JAN MAY MATARAY, MAY BUHAYA AT SADLY MAY TANGA. sana ng brainstorming at nag trial and error muna sila.

[1818JoseRizal1898]

@10bRoom katitingin ko palang sa salamin...pareho pa rin ang response ko

[10bRoom]

@1818JoseRizal1898 bago ka mag salita tumingin ka sa salamin dada ka ng dada.Pero nai tanong mo na ba sa sarili kung ano ag nai ambag sa bayang ito?

[ebrak47]

The problem is not the design, it's the people running it.

[carlvincent12]

so....what about that Terminal 3?

[1818JoseRizal1898]

Putang ina, maganda nga design ng airport, paglabas mo naman, kitang kita ang katotohanan na Palpak ang bansa. Doesn't matter what designer suit you wear whether it be Versace or Armani, if the person stinks, the odor will penetrate through.

AYUSIN NYO MUNA ANG MAYNILA, BAGO AIRPORT.

[illudinide]

@eml75100 bro, lumabag kasi sila sa code of ethical conduct, UAP(United Architects of the Philippines) document 200, under article 2 section 2.1 that an architect should never give free preliminary sketches, so sketches pa lang bawal na i free, eh iyan, design na talga yan, isa pa, competition po kasi iyan, pipiliin nila yung pinakamagandang design, eh sila di pa nga pinipili design nila, kine-claim na nila yung project,

[hsuson]

MAR ROXAS, I will NEVER vote for you if you Delay this.

[eml75100]

Sayang naman ang pinaghirapan ng mga magagaling na arkitekto natin di naman pala magagamit,libre na ngang ibinibigay ayaw pa gusto sa may bayad .Bakit kailangan taga changi airport pa ang magpaplano,bakit kailangan singaporean ang magisip para sa airport natin, ginagawa nyong bobo ang mga arkitektong pilipino Dios ko naman ano ba iyan,kaunti na nga lang ang maipagmamalaki natin di pa tayo masaya.

[Panthom09]
