Published March 1, 2021 8:48pm Diversified conglomerate San Miguel Corp. (SMC) is set to convert a portion of its head office complex in Ortigas into its first urban farm which it said would support its staff. Under the Malasakit Grade program, employees and workers doing support jobs would be given a plot of land to be used as a space to grow produce of their choice. They may opt to bring home the harvest or sell these for a profit at a small market stall that will be set up at the complex.

The San Miguel Corporation (SMC) had earlier announced that it will start collecting toll on the newly opened elevated expressway after February 1, more than a month after keeping it toll free.
“Toll collection will only be allowed after the TRB gives its approval. The toll matrix shall be published once approval is made,” he said.
Based on the proposed toll rates submitted by the San Miguel Holdings Corp., the operator of Skyway Stage 3, toll rates range from P110 to P274.
Motorists who will use the 18.8-kilometer stretch of the expressway or from Makati to Quezon City would pay P274 toll.
