The attire said, “Come in Asian attire”, and that’s what the guests wore when they walked inside the lavish Plantazzione Verdana Homes’ clubhouse, one of Ayala Land Inc.’s development in Talisay City, Negros Occidental. August 15 marked the Grand Launch of Verdana Homes ASYANA, a project inspired by its name. The main feature was an audio-visual presentation of ASYANA, which boasted of a community of houses with Asian-inspired architecture, incorporating the Matab-ang River and the surrounding lush greeneries in its development. All these set in a backdrop of mountains and Negros’ famed sugarcane fields.

Executives from ALI graced the event like Mr. Jay Visco, Head of Marketing and Sales of Visayas and Mindanao, and Mr. Francis Monera, ALI’s Vice-President. Negros dignitaries showed their support to the new project such as Congressman Monico Puentevella, Talisay City Mayor Eric Saratan, Silay City Mayor Jose Montelibano, and Talisay City Councilor Marissa Lizares. Bacolod’s top caterers worked hand in hand to create a spread that covered the sprawling gardens and clubhouse, taking the guests on a culinary tour with an array of Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Thai, and Filipino dishes.
Highlighting the evening was a show by the country’s top singing group, The CompanY, who entertained everyone with their unique renditions of Pinoy music. By the end of the show, guests were dancing onstage and by the poolside.
After twelve years of investing in Negros, Ayala Land is confident that Asyana will be another successful venture, as they maintain their standards of developing superior communities in the Philippines.
