Some government offices already have satellite offices in shopping malls. These include the Philippine Health Insurance Corp., the Social Security System, the Department of Foreign Affairs and the Land Transportation Office.

Herbosa said they chose SM as their satellite office in Manila because of its strategic location. “The Manila mall is strategic because you have the Binondo business area. The schools and the university area and all the way to the Roxas Boulevard area will be using facilities in SM Manila,” she said.
