Comment: This draft describes a ROTM company going about its business. I see nothing here that would make this noteworthy in any way. If you wish to tell the world about your company, I suggest you try LinkedIn etc. DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:52, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

Controversies
[edit]Service Issues
[edit]Pioneer Woodlands was featured on ABS-CBN's TV Patrol segment called, calling out the developer for issues surrounding its then pre-selling units.
A Facebook group named "Megaworld Pissed Buyers," comprising hundreds of property owners, has created a petition on Change.org urging Megaworld and Empire East founder Andrew Tan to address numerous issues. These concerns include unfair payment terms, significant delays in the turnover of units, deficiencies in documentation and financing, as well as construction defects, leading to regret among the buyers regarding their property purchases [13].
Legal Dispute with MPower
[edit]California Garden Square, one of the properties developed by Empire East, was involved in a legal dispute with the Meralco subsidiary MPower, which claims that the project has outstanding obligations amounting to P42 million[14]. Kevin Tan, the CEO of Megaworld, refuted claims that the real estate developer owed funds to MPower. He clarified that although Empire East is responsible for the development of California Garden Square, the property has long been under the ownership and management of the California Garden Square Condominium Association (CSGSCAI).
