Soon to rise in Filinvest City, Alabang is a one-of-a-kind residential enclave that would combine genuine village charm, lush gardenscapes and luxe amenities. The Botanika Nature Residences is the pilot project of Filinvest Alabang Inc. (FAI) for its ultra-high end category of prime developments aptly named the Exclusive Collection. The latest venture had its grand launching recently at the Botanika Sales Atrium in Filinvest City with superb cocktails, a sumptuous dinner and exceptional performances by singer-businessman Jose Mari Chan and the Philippine Ballet Theater plus a posh fashion show by designer Randy Ortiz. Leading the unique launch were the indefatigable FAI president and CEO Josephine Gotianun-Yap with director Mercedes Gotianun, Filinvest Asia Corp. president Joseph Yap, executive vice president Kate Ilagan, vice president Michael Gotianun, and Muntinlupa City mayor Jaime Fresnedi as guest. The great vision of the patriarch Filinvest Development Corp. chairman emeritus Don Andrew Gotianun, Sr. in transforming a partial wilderness and site of a stock farm into a modern city that blends harmoniously with the environment is in itself a rare and tremendous accomplishment. Our congratulations to the brilliant Josephine Gotianun-Yap for successfully converting the vision into reality. We shall wait with bated breath for this piece of paradise on earth.
