Security Guards SG for short has miltiple roles in the Philippines 🇵🇭 from security to first aide, traffic assist, client assistance, client greeter, making clients comfortable with seating, etc

Booooohhh security brainless

[@ATC_Radio]

@@Travel_chronicleswelcome to the Philippines 🇵🇭 bro! Take care!

[@casparroofingchannel]

👍👍👍

[@darcan8970]

these guards and cops assigned to the malls keeps these places safe from criminals like store takeover specially jewelry shops which is likewise happening in the states now, looters, shop lifters, bank robberies inside mall, etc. The reason why store looting is not happening here. Just dont feel awkward about the guard searching your bag or belongings, or the scanner, that gives you extra security for your safety😊😊😊

[@snowtyboy]

They're checking for illegal weapons which is not allowed inside the mall to prevent mass shootings like they have in the US or Thailand. Security are everywhere as deterrent to massive shoplifting like most stores in america.

[@Travel_chronicles]

Love it

[@mincanites4155]

You have a good eye on what to try in that huge mall. From coffee, to taho, to Shake Shack and finally, lemonade. You also know what is priced at the high-end, and vice versa. I enjoy watching you enjoy as you explore the Philippines. Have fun!!!

[@Travel_chronicles]

I think I'm getting lucky with my picks hahah

[@jollyrogers5261]

Just discovered you brother! Cool vids! Watched your Philippine vlogs! Awesome! Love the country. Lived there. Going back in the future. I'm sure you already know why everyone speaks english and if you noticed, it has a big American influence, but still deep in its culture. The Philippines was under the United States before it became independent a few years after WW2 and it's a major US ally. You need more time to travel the country. Wonderful people, culture and so many destinations. Have fun!

[@Travel_chronicles]

I might end up moving here haha

[@marisaclavelinabuentipo4009]

To prevent any arms that may bring inside the mall that maybe cause a crimes. That's the reason you can see a lot of security guards around in the mall, hotels and even in restaurants and so on. To make people safe

[@OG_Boom_22]

For the safety of the people inside the mall and to make sure that they dont carry knives or guns to avoid unwanted incidents that's why we have security guards 😊 .. Ingat and godbless 🫶

[@charvinmolacoofficial8948]

At the back of the Mall is the Seaside we have a Big Eye Ferris Wheel there are many amusement parks and food stalls but i know its raining. Good that you utilized inside the mall. On the left side we have MOA Arena for Concerts and we also have IKEA ,one of the biggest store.

[@ronnienestor]

Have you heard of Bangkok’s Siam Paragon mall mass shooting? They lacked security. It never happens in the Philippines. We thank the security checks.

[@rosshaikenleonen1416]

For the bag inspection, there was a time in the Philippines in the 90's to early 00's where terrorism is rampant. To combat this, bag inspection has now become a kind of culture when entering establishments such as mall and banks. If you carry a firearm, you can deposit it with the security guards and get it back when you leave.

[@RedWhiteBlue.]

These malls are designed without much common rest area seating for you to keep on walking and eventually spend somewhere.

[@Travel_chronicles]

Ahhhh makes sense

[@rheolouisa3648]

Why Filipinos loved going to malls. Aside from aircon. It serves an array of business establishment. You've got it all. Drugstore, wine cellar, theater, groceries from meat section to dry goods and wet market, sports center, different varieties of food, coffee shop, kiosk, bargain center, loading center, skating area, fastfood, art exibit area, banks, church, playroom for kids, call center, medical clinic, some government agencies like SSS, BIR or Philhealth, some have travel agency for booking, huge depatment store that serves clothing or appliance center and many more just to name a few.... A one stop shop. So, next time you stroll. Plan your itinerary to accomplish many things in one place in one day.

just for the Safety,bcoz you dont even know some other ge5 inside with bad intensions...some there's a bad people get robbe the Jewelry store in the mall0

[@nestormarquez1594]

Lethal weapon is prohibited to carry inside the Mall.. you need to surrender it to the security guard and then get it back before you go out

[@Travel_chronicles]

False?? 🤣🤔🤔

[@Ilaya593]

Yes, we have nice malls. Until you go into the bathrooms. Many lack toilet seats. Many out of order. Reeks of dried urine. No tissue paper. Often you see migrants brushing their teeth. Sure, if you want to use nice ones ... go to higher end malls in Rockwell, etc. or those bathrooms with a receptionist at the front whom you pay money to enter the CR (comfort room).

You don't know the reason why they're checking your bag? WHY ? BECAUSE MAYBE SOMEBODY HAS A BOMB THAT'S why they always check your bags, or somebody attemp to bomba the place .and for safety . Need to used common sense..

[@darwinyuson9338]

Oh yeah, my new fav foreign vlogger in Manila. Cheers! SM North EDSA is the biggest mall in PH btw in terms of the quantity of shops and spaces. The reason why all malls have a scanner and security is to protect the business from any possible bombings or terrorist acts. Manila had experienced a simultaneous bombing incident in the 2000s, a metro train station, a bus in the city, a mall in Makati, near the US embassy, and an almost exploded bomb detonated at the international airport, all happened in 1 day of Dec. 30, 2000. So basically never ever again to happen, PH learned from that one.

[@Travel_chronicles]

I wish they would have these kinds of security here in Canada

[@darwinyuson9338]

@@Travel_chronicles Yes, Canada can emulate that, especially since your country is active in supporting the U.S. in its terror campaign globally. You'll never know whose next target amongst allies, and it happened to us then. So better to be strict than sorry.

[@Trolololitarian_RepubLICK]

​@@darwinyuson9338Chill brother... 😅

[@cutiebellacat4720]

Apparently, to avoid incidents like mass shootings which is common in the US that is why there are lots of guards and security checks before u enter the mall

[@Travel_chronicles]

Good security!

[@emmans05]

Taho - is also one of Filipino staple breakfast-to-go or sometimes snack. Best served hot in the morning. Its made of soy curd with "sago" or tapioca pearls and sugar syrup or "arnibal". Its liked softened tofu

[@Travel_chronicles]

Love it! Thanks for the explanation bro

[@rommelpesigan3206]

[@ATC_Radio]

You didnt get to see the MOA park by the beach bro. There is beautiful scenery out there.

[@jonasbelardo9227]

The reason is simple ... Safety... Cause there is a few incident where robbers rob the mall using any kind of hard thing specialy hammer to break the glass of jewelry..watch ...phone.. Etc anykind expensive that on display on the glass shelf.. Or a bladed weapon worst is gun... So they always check the bag so they make sure no weapon or improvise weapon will go inside to do bad things... Also mall is one of the best spot to trade drugs cause theres is no police and no one will suspect you there... So checking belongings can prevent at least a bad doing inside the mall

[@Travel_chronicles]

Love the safety

[@mitiventures1864]

Thanks for the vlogs. We're Fil-Canadian and so we're happy you found your way to the Philippines. From the comments below, yes security guards serve many roles -- guides, information, security, lost and found, etc. The entrances are quite secured with metal detectors and inspections. It did not use to be like this, but in the recent past there have been many mall bombings made by terrorist groups so malls have upgraded measures to at least deter carry-on weapons and bombs. It's not 100% but it helps provide some sense of security. SM Malls are the biggest in the Philippines (Mall of Asia, MegaMall, etc.) The nearby cities of Pasig, Makati, Manila and Quezon City will of course provide you with more choices of malls because Pinoys are very mall-oriented people. We love our malls. The reason why there are very few seats in wide mall aisles is also to encourage foot traffic. The more people walk, the more they will spend. It's all economics. The lack of rest areas is balanced by the sheer number of stalls with outside seating. Enjoy your stay in the Metro areas. Hopefully you can visit the islands as well. Love from Vancouver, BC.

[@rubenbitas401]
