MANILA - Manila Mayor Isko Moreno on Tuesday gave 2 companies 72 hours to pay P25.54 million in unpaid obligations or risk losing control of 5 public markets in the city.

XRC Mall Developers Inc and Marketlife Management and Leasing Corporation entered a joint venture agreement with the previous administration, but never remitted the city’s guaranteed annual revenue share since 2017, Moreno said.

“‘Yung maliliit na nagtitinda nagbabayad pero ‘yung malalaking korporasyon hindi nagbabayad. Parang ginagahasa niyo naman kami niyan,” the mayor said. Manila Mayor Isko Moreno gives Sta.
