MANILA, Philippines – Robinsons Land Corp. is developing seven business process outsourcing (BPO) and call center sites this year, as it takes advantage of call centers’ expansion into the provinces.

BPO and call center firms are rapidly expanding into the regions due to lower operational costs, a larger manpower pool and lower employee turnover rates.

Most firms and locators want to undertake pioneering efforts in their region of choice.

The relatively lower cost of operations here have also encouraged many firms in the US and Western Europe to outsource their operations to the Philippines, making these sites even more desirable and lucrative, Robinsons said in a statement.

MANILA, Philippines – Gokongwei-owned property developer Robinsons Land Corp. is giving prospective clients a virtual walk-through of its condominium projects as it tries to expand its market.

Robinsons Land Corp., the property unit of JG Summit Holdings Inc., yesterday launched its fourth residential tower at Robinsons’ Cybergate City along Pioneer, Mandaluyong.

The 33-story residential project will have 331 units, with one or two bedrooms.

The Trion Towers is the first three-tower residential complex in BGC and is highlighted before the property market on the powerful theme of three life-nurturing essentials: Earth, Water and Sky. It is likewise anchored on a tri-axial building design that provides maximum privacy and airiness for home dwellers. All three buildings will tower at 49 storeys each.

Earth represents the wellness amenities related to land like landscaped gardens, jogging paths, bicycle tracks, play and exploring areas for children. Water encompasses aqua-based interactions like swimming, healing moments, gazing at ponds and water features. Sky points to the vast, refreshing views from the homes and Trion’s telescope-equipped Stargazers Garden, and to exquisite night lighting for the towers.

It has been said that memory-that mental ability to store, retain and recall information-is a wonderful thing. In everyday life, it is that place, where we retreat to for all the things that make us feel good… about ourselves, about the people near and dear to our hearts, about this oftentime crazy world in which we live.
