As of June 2011 Oceanic has not created any significant change to improve the cleanliness and maintenance of our condo. They are only good in making promises and making commitments but when in comes to effective actions and implementations of solutions Oceanic is definitely poor. Yes they feel like they are doing their job but they do not know the meaning of quality job.

Last week I received an e-mail from a concerned unit owner from tower 3. He is complaining about the garbage rooms. Last night, June 25, 2011, I decided to check our garbage rooms and behold, it verifies everything that was said in the email.

Here's the email that I received from one of the tenants that best describes what I saw that night.

"Will anything be done about the "garbage room"? It is grossly unsanitary and a dangerous health risk. The room is a breeding ground for germs and viruses with all the filthy, sticky floor and all sorts of solid and wet waste! Twice I saw cockroaches creeping from the garbage room to the adjoining rooms (too bad --- but why wait for these to enter our own units!).

To expose ourself by entering that smelly, garbage-filled room everytime to throw waste immediately exposes anyone to air-born viruses. Imagine if that room is left open as it always it, situated beside a heavy human traffic area of the elevator. It is a glamorized garbage pit! Hello dengue, H1N1, influenza everytime anyone passes the elevator!!!!! How insensitive of the Adminstration and developer to willfully expose us to such a health hazard. Oh, what should one expect anyway --- they don't personally live in this low cost tenement they have turned our homes into. Why should they bother --- they seem to have cowed to content with what it feels are the "basics" of our living."

To Oceanic and Empire, Me hiya pa ba kayo? How can you make us stay in an unsafe and unsanitary condominium?

None of the garbage rooms in tower 2 are kept close. Everything is open, exposing the tenants from all germs coming from the garbage room. If something smelly is thrown inside, the smell is all over the hall way. A nice scent to greet any tenant coming out of the elevator.

Bonus pictures.

The leak at the 16th floor has been there for years already. Oceanic repairs it but they never succeeded in their efforts. Every time typhoons hit Manila, that leak instantly resurrects itself.

This is the only room that has no garbage except for few plastic bottles but the room itself looks like a trash.

Two fire exits are left open that night. Oceanic, please spell "safety" again. If fire breaks that night, that floors could easily become the chimney. Perhaps they are waiting for real accidents to happen to test the theory.

Graffiti, Cockroach and Agiw

Below are the early pics of our condo. First Oceanic Property Management Inc staff and officers have very low standards in keeping our place clean.

Sukob, the big X, and Sonny Koyakoy graffitis are still there, no need to repost.

The Hallway

One of the biggest disappointments when the condo was turned over to us was the hallway. In 2006, the hallways had no tiles, our developer used rough cement for the finishing. When we complained about it, Empire East officers told us that if we wanted to improve it then the residents had to shoulder the expenses. Here's the picture of our hallway in 2006.

I believe it is only Empire East who delivers a condo with a rough cement finish of the hallway. Empire East is truly one of a kind in delivering substandard quality of materials in their condo.

After several dialogues with the administration, finally the hallways were improved and vinyl tiles were used to replace the rough cement. It was a relief for the unit owners but unfortunately it was only temporary. Take a look at the picture below and you will see how First Oceanic/Empire East are so bad in delivering their services to us.

Now the hallways look good at first glance but a closer look would reveal the poor quality of work done to finish it. Very inappropriate for a 2.3 million investment

Below are recent pics of our hallways, taken April 13, 2011. Some areas look like puzzles with missing pieces. What will you feel if this is the quality of work given by your developer?

First Oceanic Prperty Management and Empire East did not bother to put a base board or to just simply paint the edges of tiles meeting the wall to at least conceal the imperfections. The work was very unprofessional. This was done during the time of Ms Jesamine Marasigan. She's very inefficient as property administrator but to our surprise she was even promoted :-(

Dips and indention marks are also common, First Oceanic Property Management and Empire East Land Holdings did not bother to smoothen and level the floor before putting the tiles.

SOUND PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

This is my response to the article published by First Oceanic Property Management in Philippine star entitled "Sound Property management boosts long term values," last March 14, 2011. (here's the link: http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=665861&publicationSubCategoryId=78)

With the pictures posted below, I think its high time for First Oceanic Properties to improve its standards to really claim the title, "Sound Property Management."

To Oceanic, please hire highly qualified administrator and staff to take care of our investments. The pictures below are the products of inefficient staff, administrators and officers of first oceanic and empire east. If you spent 2.3 million to buy a unit what will you feel if this becomes the scenario of your chosen property.

Hallways are not properly maintained. One time I asked the admin why can't they regularly wax the hallways and they replied," Sir wala pa pong budget sa wax" (toink!)

Garbage rooms are really eyesores, it also violates the building code because garbage rooms should be equipped with self closing mechanism for fire safety reason

A lot of sprinklers are not properly installed, another violation in the building code

This has been the look of this door for years now. Still no action from Oceanic or no budget (?)

Oceanic and empire east land call this playground. It's very child friendly, they use rough cement to finish it. Can they spell the word "safety?"
Empire East Land Holdings Inc

Another major violation in the fire code. The fire exit door should swing outward and not inside. This is the same violation that Ozone disco had that's why casualties were high when fire broke in their establishment

This is an example on how Oceanic and empire east do their repairs, very pro

The elevators are running without the necessary safety permits from the city hall.

This is how they installed the vinyl tiles, di ba dapat pinapantay muna ang semento? Sabi ng Oceanic "Care namin, ang usapan lagyan lang ng tiles!"

Just one word, "YUCK!"
