World's Biggest Mall

The mother of all SM malls

How can a third world country like the Philippines be able to put up one of the biggest malls in the world? Is it a sign that we're not really in economic crisis and that we have all the money for shopping?... or maybe Philippines is really poor but Filipinos are rich?

Here comes SM Mall of Asia, an ambitious project of Mr. Henry Sy. He really came from a long way from selling shoes (SHOEMART) to opening of 24 SM branches. Though the development of 'Mall of Asia' slowed down, it is something that shopaholics and window shoppers (like me) look forward to.

The stationary globe in front of SM Mall of Asia. Props for putting the Philippines on the map and giving it a different color. I wish they can make it rotate too. =p
