Bayani’s Kalayaan fiasco

Upshot

By Bernardo V. Lopez

Bayani Fernando, chairman of the Metro Manila Development Authority, is the engineer-wannabe who designed the expensive Kalayaan elevated U-turn that is now being built.

Engineers I interviewed have termed it "Jurassic," "irreversible," and "defying international standards of traffic and safety."

The core problem lies in Bayani’s perception that he is infallible; criticisms against him are simply ignored. His bullheadedness is the issue. The Kalayaan project reflects not only a first-class engineering blunder, but also bad governance. The senior transportation engineers I interviewed have been building interchanges for decades.

Jurassic talaga. take note si bayani fernando hindi civil engineer, mechanical engineer. hindi ko nga alam kung licensed mechanical engineer. dating may ari siya ng BF construction. sabi niya nag divest na daw siya sa company nya. ang namamahala na ng kanyang dating kumpanya ay ang kanyang 28 years old na anak. galing mo. sino ang niloloko nitong hinayupak na ito.
