Henry G. Babiera, PATEPCO president and a top art and antique dealer in Southeast Asia, said just like before local and foreign shoppers can visit Greenhills and enjoy shopping. The 19th National Furniture, Furnishing & Fashion Festival which will be held back to back with the 7th Philippine Folk Arts & Crafts Festival to start March 18 is expected to be crowded by bargain hunters and shoppers, particularly those looking for Christmas gifts, small-time entrepreneurs, foreign guests and tourists, like to shop in the Philippines, diners, and others who enjoy window shopping or just going around. Babiera said the best shopping mall is Greenhills because it is accessible, fully air-conditioned, with food chains, ultra-modern movie houses, wide parking areas, peaceful neighborhood, courteous security guards, and other amenities conducive to shopping.
