Everybody was out at Rizal Park because it was still the Christmas holidays, and going to parks was free entertainment for the people.

[@CryptoGodUK]

We missed you Mergy Merry Christmas

[@jraguinaldo3893]

Sick episode bro. I'm feelin the scooter. Keep up the good work!

[@vig8288]

i used to ride my folding bike in Dawn From Antipolo to MOA via edsa a lot of uneven surface, potholes in bikelane my bälls beat up😂

[@vj9241]

Don't undestimate the road, please protect yourself with a decent helmet & pads! Potholes & road cracks are very much common & everywhere!

[@fortuneybiernas5778]

Nice of you to help her. Malabon is northernmost city of Metro Manila, at the border of Bulacan. Its a fishing city. Just go straight Roxas Boulevard.

[@mrussel2392]

Cool ... Tour of Manila

[@manuelbadar6634]

Life is beautiful 😍 😊

[@jansenalmonidovar9248]

Here we go! 😊😊😊 enjoy mergim. Tagaytay next 🎉🎉🎉

[@murdaya69]

A great little investment. Hope it will serve you for a long time. Safe travels

[@po09arap]

Thanks

[@mimiblitberg]

Come to Malabon city, Mergim! 😅.

[@TraveltrippersNZ]

Hi Mergim I met you yesterday outside Starbucks. Great local content. Hope the weather improves. Cheers Phil

[@irvin6890]

Keepsafe meegim❤

[@Genkuro]

That bay area where you were across Mall of Asia will drastically change once construction starts. It will obstruct the view from that spot when the New Manila Bay City of Pearl rises from those ongoing reclamation projects.

[@gilghost]

Please wear helmet esp when driving on edsa....

[@robertakizuki9806]

Watching all Mergim vlogs videos that I missed seeing on first day of the year. Great day to start the year

[@leodasal670]

Ride safe bro.

[@gabriela_04B]

Epic! 😉

[@quickthinker7582]

People just want to enjoy and savor the xmas break from school

[@johntonelete]

It's the norm during Holiday seasons on Rizal park🎉

[@makoytan9952]

no healmet and scooter is not for highway.. follow the rules mr. privilage

[@Mega-zi7ys]

Thank goodness someone noticed that. These YT pretend experts are just that....😂

[@sallysuay809]

Always driving safely around Metro Manila road Mergim.

[@fortuneybiernas5778]

Post Christmas is still holidays, no school. So they just go there for free.

[@Liampo00]

Mall of Asia sana all🎉

[@gtrfreak]

Still riding with no helmet 😅Anak HF-12 Half Face Nutshell Helmet on Lazada Glad you are enjoying your new scooter I love my Kugoo. A hook on the stem to hold a shopping bag also comes in clutch

[@Thigsy]

Half shell isn't recommended on stand up scooters. Most accidents are face plants... Motorcycle Full face helmet is the best. 40+ kph speeds you'll need a full face motorcycle helmet. Nutshells are good for 15 to 20kph using bicycles and skates not motorized vehicles. I've been riding electric scooters since 2017. Most injuries Ive seen are face plants.

[@russelalvaro3974]

he's in EDSA .. exciting

[@leob4645]

Christmas season is much popular in the Philippines than the Independence day. Fireworks activities are 100 times more than during the Independence Day unlike in the US.

[@JoeyZee-vs4kr]

Mergim, the artificial islands that's blocking your sunset views are FUTURE LITTLE CITIES similar to BGC, even prettier. 😊

[@MattReardonVlogs]

I'm curious about that pile of sediment deposited in Manila Bay. When I visited over a year ago, I don't remember seeing that. I they developing land there?

[@dondennis1814]

Hello Matt, yes they are making a land reclamation to build a new city just Like BGC and may take around 5 to 10 years to complete.

[@thomasrudy6132]

I walked from Two Maridien in BGC to MOA in August. Took me a little less than two hours if I remember correctly. I was wondering how you were going to get the scooter over those steps. No, I did not walk back!

[@mdf5163]

Stay safe always bro.. hopefully no officer would call out your scooter 🛴 passing EDSA coz there's a ban this year of such like e-scooters/e-bikes on major roads they said for safety reasons... Though regular bikes are still allowed 😂 --Former e-bike user here

[@nightwing4065]

You went to Mall of Asia from Mandaluyong then went to Rizal Park with the scooter, that's a long way. Stay safe as always. 2025 is upon us, let's GO!

[@lawriemcdonald4554]

I dare you to go Shaw Boulevard at peak hour. Now that would be a great video 😂

[@AndrewHiscock]

That soil that’s been ‘dumped’ is land reclamation for development. Take a look at what is proposed. It’s impressive if it comes to fruition.

[@JedsRetort]

Hey man, I'm from the Philippines and I ride my motorcycle daily instead of a car for convenience. You're so brave taking that scooter in major roads, I wouldn't even do that. Haha. Keep safe! Also, I don't think you can ride that in EDSA, if you come across a corrupt traffic enforcer, they might try to get money off of you since you're a foreigner. Get gear too, wear an open face helmet at least.

[@eliazerjohannansantos6463]

You need off-road suspension, outside bgc

[@GreenTeaViewer]

I noticed you called the young girl "ma'am". I do that too for a laugh but sometimes they get annoyed. "It's miss, not ma'am!" Call the older ones miss and the young ones ma'am that's my philosophy.

[@jungravoso7028]

well, i also do not know why many of us filipinos go to rizal park or luneta every december 25. what i remember is that my parents always bring us to the rizal park every christmas and we have picnic there with sandwiches and other foods. we as kids always anticipate and excited about that picnic

[@tonyamaro4714]

don't forget escoot helmet next time.

[@MoturElectric]

love the title haha

[@undefeated4479]

escooter is cool, covers a lot for you to vlog take care and get a helmet

[@calilocal4134]

Pls wear a reflective vest at night for your safety .

[@Lil-Mike-55]

Cheers, Chairman!🥂

[@TwinklingLights1]

ROAD PENALTIES There's a P1,000 to P5,000 penalty for e-scotters plying major highways & thoroughfares like EDSA & SkyWay (especially if there's no bike lane). Unfortunately, traffic enforcers are hard to find these days ('coz all road related issues were now relegated to traffic surveillance cameras (CCTVs)). The road penalties incurred will only be reflected upon car registration or driver's license renewal. As we all know, all e-scotters are NOT registered in LTO, hence they're "untraceable" (as they don't have files in LTO during renewal).

[@francesmcdonald8145]

Is there a small camera that can be installed on top of your head with the helmet on or cap on , in that way your hand is free. I’ve seen that on some other blogger. Our family in Arizona USA 🇺🇸 it’s always excited watching you, riding with your scooter in Manila Philippines 🇵🇭 my husband is worried he said ,you should wear a helmet. He doesn’t want to see you getting into hit and run,thanks for sharing

[@hillroberts1311]

Great episode. Thank you. Happy 2025!

[@TwinklingLights1]

ANYTHING NEW?? Well, there's already an SM MOA annex or extension. SM MOA is organically "changing" year after year. Soon, a huge Landers will be opened around that area. New condominium buildings. 2025 may also be the opening of another Resort & Casino near Solaire & Okada. Then the Reclamation Projects may be completed within 5 years timeframe that may ultimately change its landscape.

[@carolschannel4412]

Nahagip pala ako sa likod😅

[@marilousumo226]

But be careful Mergim edpecially in EDSA

[@Mcda7922]

Use reflector shirt specially at night

[@latebloomer6671]

More appropriate to address Rizal as Doctor. He was a prominent Opthalmic surgeon in his time. His Irish wife's foster dad came here to get his eyes treated by Dr. Rizal.

[@MoralHazard-g1e]

I look forward to your future vlog about your experience with insurance claims processing after severely injuring yourself on the scooter and being refused due to gross negligence (no saftey gear and violating traffic laws).

[@shehkh]

Would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend having shoes on and a helmet, perhaps some simple full finger gloves as well incase of a fall. Be safe!

[@manuelpineda2879]

If you want a much faster scooter and lighter weight, there are two more brands available: one is made by a South Korean company that can run at 72 miles per hour. The other one is made by a French American company based in LA that can run at 90 miles per hour. The French/American brand is more expensive because it's made of carbon fiber it is lightweight and foldable too, and you will have no problem carrying it around everywhere, but it will take several months before it can be delivered to your location. The South Korean brand though will deliver it to you in a few weeks. With this kind of SPEED, you can easily beat any kind of fast cars and motorbikes on the street.

[@Kam_Abroad_FT]

You're more brave than I am. I have zero interest risking my life riding that thing. Prefer being in an SUV, partially protected from all of the terrible drivers.

[@Genkuro]

*_Just be aware that helmets are required when riding e-vehicles. True you might need a license to drive them on the streets except national highways like EDSA, you got lucky and were not flagged._*

[@eliottrobinson8288]

Im thinking about buying a scooter from the scooter place on 37th street and 6th avenue in BGC Park West. I was looking at the one with a seat and bigger tires.

[@anesthesia166]

Can you actually drive that in EDSA? I think e- bikes and E-scooters are not allowed on major roads.

[@saintmonday31]

I don't get it, you can ride a bike in Edsa but e-scooters are not allowed? I know someone who use the same scooter as his service for work his route is Quezon Ave and everyday he passed by dozen of enforcers Di naman sya hinuhuli. he's wearing a helmet and a very formal office suit though.

[@anesthesia166]

He can be victimized by corrupt traffic enforcers because he's a foreigner.

[@Mega-zi7ys]

​​@@anesthesia166he's not wearing even a helmet... how's that? This video alone provides proof of his violation ... foreigner or local makes no difference.

[@AndrewHiscock]

I’m curious, do you have third party insurance?

[@floren879]

Hello 👋

[@maximodakila2873]

It's because technically Manila is still on holiday season where most employees have taken a day(s) off and they've gone out to these parks. It's no different to China on their new year where everybody there are on holiday and their tourist spots are jampacked

[@JimmyResurreccion-p5e]

Its vacation time until January 3 because its Christmas Holiday season.

[@Brittania7]

Why no blogging?

[@jes2731]

With the current price drops in condo's, are you looking to find a better deal with yours, or looking for a better cheaper location? Saving almost 40% on your rent would be huge! Merry Christmas and good evening from Southern Leyte!

[@lethic123]

still no helmet dude? keep safe sir.

[@h2owalter2022]

Dude, you need to wear a helmet and some protection gear specially if you're in Edsa, there are some traffic enforcers that will apprehend you to require a Helmet.

[@elloizchristiansaladero1205]

1-2 hrs travel to 30 mins with an e-scooter is really a transpo hack. I'm thinking of buying one. 😅

[@romeosinson4446]

I know we all sound like a broken record but you really have to wear protection like a good quality helmet, knee pad, elbow pad. And as my suggestion before an armour suit. I’m joking but you get the drift, right?

[@VanTran-ne4yf]

Electric scooter need to set the maximum sped limit 30km then rider still in control when they fall. Unlike motorbike you can control with 2 legs and hands hold on to it which reduce the impact and injuries

[@jasperalvarez7127]

you are pro making video content

[@Mega-zi7ys]

Pro?....he doesn't even know the rules. Protective gears are required.

[@joannaduldulao3482]

Hello

[@Rumpletiltskin05]

You should invest in a good quality helmet. Safety First! ❤❤

[@reinafiguracion5467]

You're gonna get a flat tire keep it at 50 there is a reason for that get a portable airpump

[@VanTran-ne4yf]

Mergim stop riding motorbike but electric scooter even more dangerous than motorbike. The road surface in Manila not even. So many young Australian already slam their head , face on the concrete, worst than car accident. Australian roads a million time better than Manila and still not safe. A small crack on the road ,Mergim become a ball flying in the air join the FiFa world cup

It's best to invest in solid tires for your e-scooter so you won't have to worry about tire pressure. Motur Punk offers an upgrade: kzbin.info/www/bejne/raPHn2uCf7V0nNk

Not to be a broken record but please buy a helmet. You can remove when Vlogging. This video should have 50K views in a week.

Bro, a lot of CONDO's around METRO MANILA is going to have a DISCOUNT or downright going cheaper due to CONDO OVERSUPPLY. My advice is to start checking CONDO's around BGC, you might find a gem right now

[@Chaise-q3z]

Why don’t you do live just like Brian the lion doing his views hit from20k-60k views lfor 2hours around BGC

[@rEnZchannel27]

buy a new helmet if you are goiung out to edsa or else enforcer will stop you soon mergim,there's a P1,000 to P5,000 penalty for e-scotters applying major highways & thorough EDSA & SkyWay and recommended psi depends on your wieght, aprox 35-40 psi for 70-80kg or 45-50psi for heavy wieght or else you can fell the bump on the roads for how hard is your tire in E-scooter :p.

[@zztop7000]

You should charge your scooter while on the mall

More Filipino people go out during months of December and January due to colder weather.
