Carved into an Intramuros Street.
Intramuros ("inside the walls") is a historic walled area in Manila. Historically, this was the seat of the Spanish government in the Philippines.
These inscriptions let everyone know that the local Chinese population helped build Intramuros.
Regardless of time and place, it's comforting to know people will always demand credit for their work.
Happy Year of the Snake, everyone. π
