Megaworld to open PhP2.2Billion mall at Iloilo Business Park in April 2018

Megaworld, the country’s largest developer of integrated urban townships, is opening the P2.2-billion Festive Walk Mall in Iloilo Business Park this April.
Covering 90,000 square meters in gross floor area, Festive Walk Mall will have a main mall connected to a mall annex that will also be linked to the 1.1-kilometer Festive Walk Parade via elevated walkways and bridges.

Festive Walk Mall will have three levels of world-class shopping, dining, entertainment, leisure and wellness offerings. It will be anchored by its own supermarket, department store, home essentials store, toy store and a food hall.

The mall will also have seven state-of-the-art cinemas, which include Dolby Atmos cinemas that offer complete surround sound technology. Two cinemas will be Megaworld Lifestyle Malls' signature VIP Cinemas that have La-Z Boy seats (reclining leather clad) and serviced by a personal butler to have your unlimited drinks and popcorn.

Another highlight of the mall will be The Deck at the 3rd level, which features an open space with lush gardens and greeneries, a chapel and a dog park. An interactive dancing fountain will also greet mallgoers at the main entrance.
Megaworld’s first full-scale lifestyle mall in the Visayas will also have three main activity and event centers: the indoor atrium, the outdoor covered event area and the outdoor open-air activity center. A children’s playground will also be located at the mall’s ground level. 
“We are excited to bring our lifestyle mall concept to Iloilo – our first outside of Luzon. This full-scale mall will further expand our offerings in Iloilo Business Park as it matures as a township. The mall will also be able to generate around 3,500 jobs in retail, food, transport and mall operations,” says Kevin L. Tan, senior vice president and head of Megaworld Lifestyle Malls.

The Festive Walk Mall Annex will house some government offices as well as medical and wellness facilities.

More than 1,000 parking slots will also be made available for mall patrons and visitors. Festive Walk Mall will also have its own transport hub that can accommodate buses, jeepneys and taxis.
“Our idea is to seamlessly connect the main mall, the annex, Festive Walk Parade and the multi-level parking facility so that everything will be walkable,” explains Tan.

Designed with modern aesthetics that strongly evoke the country’s tropical influence, the mall will have some green and sustainable design features that include day-lighting and sun-shading facilities and fresh indoor greeneries.

Megaworld’s 72-hectare Iloilo Business Park is Iloilo City’s rising central business district that is home to two of the city’s first-class hotels, Richmonde Hotel Iloilo and the soon-to-open Marriott Courtyard; state-of-the-art BPO office towers; residential condominium towers and an expansive commercial and finance district.

GCash cautions against gambling apps used for phishing

A recent investigation by the National Privacy Commission (NPC) and the leading mobile wallet GCash, has led to the discovery of certain gambling sites and apps which were used for account takeovers in the recent surge of phishing scams. Additionally, some influencers may have unknowingly promoted these gaming apps without being aware of their fraudulent nature. GCash is now cautioning its users to be extremely careful when accessing online gambling sites and apps, and to avoid them altogether if possible. In this latest scheme, perpetrators created gambling apps while falsely claiming to be accredited by the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR). These apps deceive users with a verification process, redirecting them to a fake GCash website or payment page to top up betting credits. From there, fraudsters were able to access sensitive information such as credit card details, passwords, GCash numbers, MPINs, OTPs, and other personal data that can be exploited to gain unau
