Being connected to South Forbes

MANILA, Philippines - Remember when we were younger, our parents would say, “You have to build your connections?” These days, it’s called “networking” and the term is probably one of the strongest aspects of many disciplines like career management, information technology, and even in socializing like Facebook or Twitter.

The greatest key to the success of South Forbes Golf City (SFGC), the country’s largest fully-integrated and all-themed golf resort city at the forefront of the Metro Sta. Rosa – Tagaytay corridor, is its systems of external and internal networks which earned it the Best Golf Community Development by the 2007 CNBC International Property Awards, the world’s most prestigious property awards programme, and, recently, the Highly Commended Award for Best Development by the 2010 Bloomberg Asia-Pacific Residential Award.

Inside Looking Out. The city of Sta. Rosa has been touted as the fastest growing economies in the Philippines today. Being a strategic gateway to Metro Manila and the Calabarzon region, it has grown into the next best location for local and foreign investments as well as a primary residence.

“Metro Sta. Rosa has the fastest growth prospects and opportunities in the entire country and it fully supports South Forbes’ various residential, educational, lifestyle, work, and play options for the whole family,” said Cathay Land president Jeffrey Ng.

The availability of major infrastructure such as road networks, transportation and communication systems, and water and power supply in Metro Sta. Rosa have paved the way for businesses and commercial venues to set up shop and prosper, as well as schools that are an integral part of every burgeoning community.

Outside Looking In. South Forbes’ 5 Clusters of Excellence -- a synergistic network of lifestyle needs -- supports the ideal of a “live-work-play-shop-learn” satellite city. This way, residents can make social connections, educate their children, obtain the goods and services that meet their daily needs, and earn their livelihoods -- all within one community.

Celebrating the architecture of Hispanic settlers of California, the Mission Revival style makes its way into South Forbes through San Diego Homes, the latest addition to the Residential Cluster.

“What we liked about the California Mission style is how it promotes green building principles through its characteristic deeply-shaded porches and dark interiors that are particularly suited it for warm weather like that in the Philippines,” said Ng.
