My listing at wiki was done personally by me and updated through time by any reader, subject to personal verificaion.
I say it again. Metro Manila has around 200 malls, excluded already are the supermakets included in my list. More specifically, Metro Manila has more than 170 malls similar to Jakarta (as claimed by the article).
Mega Manila is different as it will include neighboring cities which also house numerous malls.
Assuming, but not conceding, that Jakarta has more malls than Metro Manila. The difference will not be that much given the listing I gave you, which is more than 170 also. Then the floor area will come into play. Manila may be 10 malls shorter (only an assumption), but we know that malls in Metro Manila are bigger.
If you want to dispute that fact, then provide us your list of malls with corresponding floor area.
That's it.
My point in all of my postings here is that, we have to be polite. We can prove our points by not becoming rude that we have to say negative things about a country and about the people living therein just to prove our point.
Well, I too became rude at some points in this forum but not so so rude). I found it necessary to serve as a reflection. The tendency is that we cannot see ourselves as rude until we see someone acting so unpleasantly.

Where is the listing of this around 200 malls? do you have any article or source that mentions it? where is the proof i am asking for it because you keep asking me for it, if you have no credible source, then the listing in wikipedia is your only support which is definitely nothing close to 170 malls. we don't have the exact figure for Jabodetabek metropolitan but we have 170 malls for sure in Jakarta city alone. Even if the mall in Manila have more floor space, the total mall space in Jakarta is still much more, simply because we have more malls.
And the wikipedia listing didn't really have more anything close to 170 malls as you keep claiming.
Errr 10 mall shorter ok an assumption, and yes the main malls in Manila are bigger and i didn't argue about that one, but because we have more malls we have more space. Its really as simple as that lol.
