Hi, Filipino Wikimapia contributors are known for drawing proposed highways and stuff like that as if they already exist. For example, the SLEX spur road going to Los Banos and bypassing the traffic-prone downtown area of Calamba does not exist and I think is only in the proposed stage. No bidding or whatever yet. http://wikimapia.org/#lat=14.1711557&lon=121.1452746&z=16&l=0&m=b
In another instance, they already drew part of the TR4 phase of the SLEX rehabilitation which is still on paper and the government still has to buy the right-of-way yet. http://wikimapia.org/#lat=14.1340995&lon=121.1532998&z=16&l=0&m=b So, do not believe everything you see in Wikimapia. :-) (Surprisingly, they still don't have the NLEX-Mindanao Avenue link road, which we do have.)
