A famed hotel chain and an established one-stop shop commercial establishment signified their plans to build their branches in Cagayan de Oro City, Mayor Rolando ‘Klarex’ Uy said on Friday.

 

In his Friday program ‘Ang Inyong Alagad: Mayor Klarex Uy’, Mayor Klarex said he visited a businessman friend in Manila who assured him of plans to build a Sheraton hotel branch in Cagayan de Oro City.

 

‘The Sheraton-Mactan hotel (was already finished) along with the Sheraton hotel in Bohol, so he assured him that the city is next,’ Mayor Klarex said in Visayan. Mayor Klarex also confirmed that Landers Superstore will soon be built in the city.

 

Mayor Klarex, who previously announced the entry of Landers Superstore in the city last month, said he was visited by Landers management who told him about plans to develop a three-hectare property in the city for their business.

 

Two Landers Superstore branches were already set up in the cities of Cebu and Davao. ‘I asked City Engineer Joel Momongan and (Office of the Building Official) chief Engr. Rosanna Rodriguez and asked them whether the property showed to me by Landers won’t (result in them being hassled by) rainy weather,’ Mayor Klarex said in Visayan.

 

Mayor Klarex made the announcements barely a week after he delivered his second City Mayor’s Annual Report (CMAR) at the Aquilino Pimentel Jr. International Convention Center. In his address, Mayor Klarex pointed to the expansion of major malls and stores in the city along with the entry of luxury hotels and stores.

 

Mayor Klarex said City Hall issued 5,414 new business permits which signified business confidence in his administration at City Hall while rvenue collection went up to P5.6 billion last year./Stephen Capillas of City Information Office
