KATRINA STUART SANTIAGO
I was in Cebu two weeks ago, working on assignment in Shangri-La Mactan, a beautiful well-planned resort away from the city—an hour’s drive away, maybe longer, depending on the traffic. This is what it has come to for Cebu: Manila-like traffic, inexplicable road constructions that have stretched on for far too long, the evolution of a city bound to business centers and large malls, an expat community and a growing migrant population.
