The Golden Mosque of Manila and Libya's President Muammar al-Gaddafi
The Golden Mosque (or Masjid Ginto) was constructed in 1976 for the visit of Libya's President Muammar al-Gaddafi, although his visit ended up being cancelled. The minaret is now completely rusted and the dome is partly rusted. Shall Gaddafi come back?

Happy New year! I wish you all the best for 2008!
Did you converted to Islam?
Hmmm... that I didn't know we have this mosque in Manila. Hope the people could still save it, clean it up and preserve it.
Welcome back Sidney! Happy New Year to you and the others willing to read the few comments here.
