If you were among the millions who watched the Pacquiao-Hatton fight as aired on delayed telecast by GMA TV, then you must have been among those who were pissed at the number of commercials they put in every moment they can.

What saved the day for everyone however is the intermittent showing of a new TV ad featuring a little girl named Trisha Luice Canete or Cha-cha Canete.   Here it is.

Upon closer look on the cute commercial, you will notice that the ad which we now call the “Bulilit TV Ad” is actually that of Camella Homes, as part of their move to drumbeat their presence nationwide, including General Santos City.

The Bulilit TV Ad which utters the blurb “Ganito Na Kami Ngayon” ushers in what used to be a gated community known as The Grenadines but has been renamed as Camella General Santos. Why the change? Apparently, the owners, Vista Land must have thought that it is easier to sell the more widely known Camella than The Grenadines which have encountered trouble here due to non-compliance of some provisions in the Housing Law.

Anyway, everything seems to be fine now and the first few houses in Camella General Santos, located in a 12-hectare property in Barangay San Isidro are slowly being built.

According to their handouts, Camella General Santos is the “first master planned subdivision in General Santos City with exquisite looking Caribbean-Style Houses that are Cable and Internet-ready. Its modern features and amenities include Grand Entrance Plaza, well-paved roads, underground storm and drainage system, caribbean-inspired Clubhouse, swimming pool, CCTV Camera security system, Multi-court activity area, parks and pocket gardens“.

Camella Homes General Santos is of course not the first “master-planned subdivision” in the Tuna Capital because La Cassandra Homes of RD Realty along the Sinawal Road beat them to it. But I must say however that their model houses definitely look better and they have more models to choose from.

I just wish that security would also be tops on their agenda since friends of mine, a couple who stay in La Cassandra were robbed more than a month ago inside what should be a heavily-secured gated community. That’s a major fail, if I may say so.
