MANILA, Philipines (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – It’s been called the “Great Photobomber.” The 46-storey condominium building in Manila’s Luneta Park has been embroiled in deep controversy because Filipinos say it provides an ugly and unpatriotic backdrop to the monument of their national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal.

Calls have been made to demolish the project and a corresponding lawsuit has been brought before the Philippines’ Supreme Court.

Today, a Manila legislator, Representative Amado Bagatsing, unveiled his common sense proposal to solve the controversy once and for all, and make everyone happy.

His proposal ? Instead of demolishing the condo building, he recommends that the Rizal monument be tilted about 45 degrees to its left  side. By doing so, Bagatsing said that the wide base of the monument will effectively block the unsightly view of Torre De Manila.

Why did it take so long for anyone to come up with this brilliant proposal?
