Antipolo by Mabuhay Singers ....

"Magbihis na kayo ng damit na maganda
At kayong lahat ay sa amin sumama
Oo saan ba tayo ay pupunta
Doon sa Antipolo na laging masaya
Magbihis na kayo ng damit na maganda
At kayong lahat ay sa amin sumama
Oo saan ba tayo ay pupunta
Doon sa Antipolo na laging masaya

Tayo na sa Antipolo
At doo'y maligo tayo
Sa batis na kung tawagin
Ay hi-hi-hinulugang taktak at doon
Tayo'y kumain
Ng mangga suman kasoy at balimbing
Kaya't magmadali ka
At tayo'y tutuloy na sa Antipolo

Magbihis na kayo ng damit na maganda

Ay hi-hi-hinulugang taktak at doon
Tayo'y kumain
Ng mangga suman kasoy at balimbing

PH Consulate learns best practices in running world-class airport at tour of SFO

SAN FRANCISCO – A seven-member delegation from the Philippine Consulate General in San Francisco led by Consul General Neil Ferrer undertook a tour of San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and met airport officials last May 29.

During the tour, the Consulate delegation met with several officials from the SFO Commission sharing relevant information on SFO’s operations covering air service development and marketing, guest services, concessions, and capital planning and sustainability.

Ivar Satero, SFO Airport Director, said that SFO is in the process of construction and renovation as it looks towards investing for the future given the return of passengers after the pandemic.

It was noted that the number of travelers from Asia has already returned to pre-pandemic levels with SFO ranking fourth among airports in the US based on passenger traffic. Filipinos are ranked seventh based on travelers’ nationality utilizing SFO. The number of travelers is expected to increase in the next few years especially in 2026 due to upcoming events such as Super Bowl LX and the Soccer World Cup.
