Torrential rains brings back the lost saudi swamp behind our house (Saudi Village, Tangke I, Naga). The swamp is almost dry the whole year especially summer. This year, it has been filled with water even though summer is not yet over (I think so).

This is the town center of the Municipality of Naga. This photograph has been modified to fit on widescreen displays.

This is where most of the electric power of the Province of Cebu comes from. If this powerplant fails, almost whole province will suffer from power outage. Our house is just a kilometer away from this monster. I could actually hear the power turbines roaring together with my PC speakers. I'm already used to the noise of this powerplant.

Salcon Power Corporation (SPC) using coal to heat water to power up turbines.


Construction of the KEPCO coal powerplant. More efficient and cleaner coal powerplant located just beside the old one.

This is an old satellite image of the town of Naga, Cebu. As you can see, Tthe famous 'Baywalk' is not yet there, the new 'City Hall' is not also there, and the paint of the roof of the church is still blue (cross shaped roof near the center of this image). Also, in this map, the construction of Naga Public Market (near the large empty lot at the upper left of this image) has just started. Because of this map, I noticed that Naga Central Elementary School (the empty lot with oval at the upper left of this image) takes a very large space in the Municipality of Naga.
