Megaworld touts flooding solution in Pampanga township
The Philippine Star
|September 25, 2025
To replicate model in other estates nationwide
Flood control? Tycoon Kevin Tan says property giant Megaworld has a solution in its townships to address flooding woes.
In a video posted on his social media page, Tan, president and CEO of conglomerate Alliance Global Group Inc., bared plans to bring Megaworld’s Rainwater Park model to more townships nationwide to help in solving flooding problems.
Tan showcased the success of the Rainwater Park in Capital Town, a 35-hectare township developed by Megaworld in Pampanga, in helping prevent flooding in the surrounding communities.
“Before we started developing the area, when it rained, the area around the capital building would flood, and the flooding would reach waist high, and it would take up to a week for the flood to subside. It was really a terrible inconvenience for the community around,” Tan said.
