Taguig City temporarily closed Makati Park and Garden due to jurisdiction dispute over EMBO barangays.

Taguig City temporarily closed Makati Park and Garden due to the park lacking permits from Taguig City Hall, as it falls under Taguig's jurisdiction. Makati City used the park as a storage space for heavy equipment and objects. The closure escalates a dispute between the two cities, with roots in a jurisdiction issue over the EMBO barangays in 2023, as the Supreme Court ruled they fall under Taguig's jurisdiction.
