I was doing my usual site surfing today when I stumbled upon a site that has a page about San Pablo City. There was nothing wrong about the information posted about our city except that it called our city a 2nd Class City. Nothing new about that either since even WikiPilipinas calls our city a 2nd Class City. What caught my attention about the page is the floating text that appears when you move your mouse over some links specially on links about other cities and municipalities in Laguna.
The floating text displays a brief description or info of what the link is about. For example, when you mouse over the link to Calamba the info displayed on the floating text is “Calamba City is a first class city in the province of Laguna, Philippines…”. The link to Santa Rosa City also shows the same info in its floating text. As for the municipalities like Santa Cruz, Los Baños, Cabuyao and San Pedro they all are described as “first class municipalities in the province of Laguna…”.
I guess it just shows how much other cities and municipalities in Laguna have progressed and their progress means progress for the entire province. Also, the growth and development of nearby municipalities will also benefit those here in San Pablo City. For example, people who can’t find work here in San Pablo City usually go to Cabuyao, Calamba City, Sta. Rosa City and other nearby towns to find work.
Anyway, as for San Pablo City being a 2nd Class City, I guess it’s just a matter of opinion. For me, San Pablo City has always and forever will be a First Class City.
How about you? Do you agree that our city is a 2nd Class City?
