6. World-class Hanwa Construction of South Korea leads the construction of this megastructure.  Hanwha E & C Corp (South Korea) is leading the construction of the Philippine Arena. This world-class firm is best recognized for its construction of Ansan Sports Complex (Ansan, Korea), Suwon Complex (Suwon, Korea), Haeundae Hanwha Resort (Busan, Korea), IT Complex (Seoul, Korea) and KINTEX 2nd Exhibition Center (Goyang, Korea)

7.  Populous Andrew James regards this project as “ambitious” and “unusual” since no one has done this before. No one has ever designed a 50,000 seater in a half bowl design.

Andrew James shares:
The building’s capacity pushes the boundary of Arena design and will eventually establish itself as the world’s largest indoor arena. The form uses simple geometry to create an elegant appearance, while also giving the venue a powerful presence within its setting.””

8. The total floor area can cater to different games played at the same time: tennnis, basketball, gymnastics, and boxing.

Check the comparison of its floor area compared to other leading Philippine arenas:

9. The Philippine Arena is the best venue candidate for Southeast Asian Games or Asian Games.  James anticipates that after completion the Philippine Arena will be a major sports facility.

James in an interview shares“If the Philippines chooses to bid for a Southeast Asian game or any Asian games, this building can be one of the key features of the bid for that game. It may be used for an opening or closing ceremony as well.”
According to INC Executive Minister Eduardo V. Manalo, the Philippine Arena can be used not only by the Church but by the public in general whether for local or international events.

10. The Philippine Arena is Earthquake Proof. Aside from being acknowledged as “The largest building of its kind” it is also built to withstand earthquakes.

11. The initial design concept of the Philippine arena is the Narra Tree and the Philippines Bahay Kubo thatched roof design.

According to Wikipedia, the Philippine Arena’s initial design is inspired by the Philippine national tree – Narra tree, the mother tree of the Philippines, and the root of Banyan tree. On the other hand, Populous shares that the thatched roof of a hut inspires part of the design of the Philippine Arena roof.

12. While the Philippine Arena is being built, other infrastructures are also built in Ciudad de Victoria just in time for the Iglesia Ni Cristo Centennial Celebration.

It is expected that the following buildings will also be finished by July 2014: Eraño G. Manalo (EGM) Medical Center, New Era University, the Philippine Stadium, and the Philippine Sports Center.

-as one of the proud members of Iglesia Ni Cristo, i would like to share some of the interesting facts about our religion.

Interesting Facts that you should Know about Iglesia Ni Cristo

Iglesia Ni Cristo is a religious organization registered in the Philippines in 1914 by Felix Ysagun Manalo.

Its members are found all over the world but are mostly concentrated in the Philippines where its roots came. Here are more interesting facts about this religious sect.

1. Founding Date: First World War

The Iglesia ni Cristo was founded on July 27, 1914. That day was the also the final day of the negotiations between Austro-Hungarian forces and Serbia. The next day they waged war with each other to which their allies backed them up, waging wars to their opponents as well. One thing lead to another until it became the even we of today know as World War I.

2. Foundation: The Bible The bible is the basis of the INC’s beliefs.  Everything they do both in daily life or in times of worship must abide to the rules given by God which are written inside the bible. The bible is also used as their main method of preaching the other non members to join them. -

3. Worship Days An INC member will go to church at least twice a week though those times and days may differ on the church’s schedule. It can happen on a Wednesday or a Thursday, then a Saturday or a Sunday.

4. Dress Code

The church observes strict policies especially in the attire of their members when attending worship services. The attire must be formal at all times, with males wearing polos or barongs paired with slacks and black shoes. The females would wear dresses and very short or skimpy are not allowed.
5. Worship Service Seating Arrangement Another strict policy that must be implemented at all times during the worship is the placement of people. The assembly hall is usually divided into two rows of chairs. The other side is where the women would sit, on the other the men.

6. INC Special Worship Days

There are special worship days that every INC member deem important for it happens only once per year. The first two would be the midyear and yearend Pasalamat. The last one would be the Santa Cena held on the month of March.

7. Bloc Voting

The Iglesia Ni Cristo is known in the Philippines for its bloc voting or voting as one. During elections, especially in the national level, the members would receive a list of who they will vote for and in turn will vote for them. This is to exercise the teaching that each member is part of the whole body working for one purpose and thus, it only needs one decision.

8. The Churches The INC churches are uniquely designed but usually feature spires on each one making it easily recognizable by its members even from afar. The biggest one, the Central Temple, sits on a 10 hectare site on Quezon City. There are no altars or images inside the church, though there is a stage facing the whole assembly hall – the INC minister will stand here for the homily.

9. The Leaders The leaders of the church started with Felix Y. Manalo. He passed away and was then succeeded by his son, Eraño G. Manalo or Ka Erdy. After Ka Erdy died, he was succeeded by his son, current Executive Minister Eduardo V. Manalo.

For every child out there that one’s become a rebellious teenager but when they get a bit older they realize that your mom is probably the best-friend that you've got whether she's an over protective mother or a bit of landmine, she probably know you better than yourself in some ways.
I personally can relate to this song because sometimes in my teenage years I hated her so much. She never allowed me to go overnight with my friends’ house, whenever we have excursions my friends need to ask her if I can join them and they really need to please her so that I can go with them. She is really strict and protective when it comes to her daughters, as I grow older I realized that whatever she was doing, she’s doing all of that for our own good. I love my mom so much that I can’t live without her, when the world will go against me, my mother will always be there to be my sister, my friend, my best friend.

She used to be my only enemy and never let me free,  
Catching me in places that I know I shouldn't be, 
Ever other day I crossed the line, I didn't mean to be so bad, 
I never thought you would become the friend I never had, 
Back then I didn't know why, why you were misunderstood, 
So now I see through your eyes, all that you did was love, 
Mama I love you, Mama I care, 
Mama I love you, Mama my friend, 
My friend 
I didn't want to hear it then but I'm not ashamed to say it now, 
Every little thing you said and did was right for me, 
I had alot of time to think about, about the way I used to be, 
Never had a sense of my responsibility 
Back then I didn't know why, why you were misunderstood, 
So now I see through your eyes, all that you did was love, 
Mama I love you, Mama I care, 
Mama I love you, Mama my friend, 
My friend 
But now I'm sure I know why, why you were misunderstood, 
So now I see through your eyes, all I can give you is love, 
Mama I love you, Mama I care, 
Mama I love you, Mama my friend, 
My friend 
Mama I love you, Mama I care, 
Mama I love you, Mama my friend, 
My friend

Moody, naughty, spontaneous yet caring, sharing and relating, that's me, Joeddie-lyn Q. Baliguat.


I like purple blue and pink, I love fashion. 

I'm fond of net surfing and I’m also a "cameraholic".

 I love chocolates, french-fries and spaghetti.


 My Parents Eddie Gante Baliguat and Jocelyn Q. Baliguat took care of my sister, Joyce Ann Larrane and me, with the help of our small business. Since our childhood our parents and relatives are very supportive and we are very close to each other. We grow up with a blissful life because we are Iglesia Ni Cristo. We are living with a simple yet happy life following the words of God.
