[QUOTE=Noman2]I'm going to Philippines a first time, so my question is, how safety is Manila and AC to walking around with digital camera, not the small compact, but big Nikon D200.
Thanx for advice[/QUOTE]
I have been here three months and I have only have had one instance where two young teenage boys tried to get my wallet.
I walking down the sidewalk in Manila around 1600 and the boys came over and got on each side of me. The one on my left put his head against my chest, under my arm and his right hand in front of me asking for money. He was pushing me toward his friend on the right. He was pushing hard enough that he stuck his hand in my back pocket to get my wallet...SHOCK, it wasn't there and I felt it. I snap back and grabbed his arm and yell, "What the fuck are you doing!" he jumped like I shot him and two security guards came over and took him away. Everyone around was laughing so hard that I caught them.
Maintain your situation awareness and you will be fine.
Stay safe,
Robb

Hi,
read ur posts and concerns.
This what I do: if I have barfined a gurl from bar I use condoms, comon sense, they might have another customer evry night and I don t like to get STD or any other things.
if that gurl stays with me for longer and I know her better I might run aids testing and then screw her without condom.
If I do that, she takes pills or I make sure my little friend is outside before he finish.
If I date normal gurls with job or colegue gurls I know longer I screw them without condoms, same I do with my gf I know longer and her family, but if I do I don tmake them prgnt.
So, as I read ur posts you dont know this gurl for sure neither met her family.
If she is a hooker, just stay in touch with emails, dont let her know you in PI, if she insists tellin you its ur chid, ask for proof. DNA testing can be done also in US, just ask her when the child is born for babys split ( no need to get blood frm the baby) and let it have send to your adress.
if you love the gurl ,meet her again, but be prepared to meet her family and get confronted with marriage etc etc etc.
Next time use condoms. I know not allways easy, you go out drink, get the gurl home,etc, but if Im talkin now to a matured guy not to an 18 year young guy you should know things better.
trust your instincts, if you smell trouble, walk away.
happy hunting

[QUOTE=Sagramore]Sleepy Floyd,
I have never had a problem of walking up to a pharmacy counter and simply telling them what you want, as long as you have the cash they will sell.
Although, all of my pharmacy purchases have been in Angeles, I don't know if pharmacies are more strict about selling without prescription in other areas.
Cheers![/QUOTE]
Mercury Drug will give you what you need.
Watsons, I guess because it is a Hong Kong company and has to play by the rules in the Phils., insist on a prescription.

Interestingly, Watsons Phils is a joint venture with SM Prime Holdings. That's why no other pharmacy is allowed to set up shop in the SM malls.
In addition to the country's number one, Mercury, runner-up Manson Drug will do just fine and is usually marginally cheaper. There is one right on Fields.
Very interesting comment because there is a Rose's and Mercury at SM Cebu.
I've been looking for a company to charter a helicopter. I'm starting to think that this is not a usual request in PI. Still I want to see all these islands from the birds eye view.

You are probably better off hiring a small plane. What area are you interested in? There are only 9,000+ islands in the Philippines. I know of a pilot in AC if your interested.

I don't have any specific plans yet. I'm in the process of making a itinerary. definitely going to put AC on my list to do for atleast for 3 days. This is my newbie trip so I will be doing some exploring of the major hot spots Manila,Makati,AC,etc. This forum has priceless information. I think Jackson should print a monthly magazine I would subscribe.
Anyway about the plane charter. Well I just want to get some info. on it first. I was assuming there was an established company with set prices and routes they fly. Come to think of it AC would give me the perfect operatunity to join the "Mile High Club" if I can find a girl to join me.
How much would a lady charge for a session in a plane?
You are the man! Thank you!
[QUOTE=Dcand4]When you get to airport departure which is on the upper level you will need to head along side walkgoing left facing the terminal where peaple actually are checked first before actually going into the building. Just head down sidewalk until you hit stairs going down. Go down the stairs and you will then be in arrivals! Someone will ask you if you need help (airport security) Just tell them you made wrong turn and they will tell you that your in arrivals. If you been in airport there you will know where your at and where to go once you go down stairs. The bottom of Stairs are about 50 feet away beyond where you would meet the taxi stand where you meet your party that will be on other side of rode. Make sure you get to airport before she gets there though. I have done this 3 times and worked everytime. If you have question further ask![/QUOTE]
Haha Thanks for the tip, but if thats the case, I will sleep on the floor and let them take the beds.. the mom, sister and my girl. I will say I really want to feel comfortable with my new family, let's stay together!
[QUOTE=GoodEnough]ST, just a word of caution. The fact that she's bringing her mom is not necessarily great news. They may be expecting you to fete the entire family and you may wind up paying for two hotel rooms; one for yourself and one for mom and the lady who is meeting you. I'm not saying this is necessarily going to be the case, but based on the evidence of hundreds of other people, it could be.

Lots of guys here say they've withdrawn cash from ATMs in AC.
I have a Bank of America/Visa check card that's compatible with Interlink, Plus and Star. Will I be able to use it in AC?

Not trying to be rude, but RTFF. If you go the Angeles page and RTFF you would have already known the answer. Plus, if you are going to Angeles, if I were you, I would have already read Everything on that forum to ensure that I was ready as I could be.
Have a safe trip and thanks for flying ISG.

Robbaf. Every time I use the search function, I receive a message that the server is being backed up. This happens *every* time I try to search, regardless of time of day or night. I assure you that I do RTFF and ask questions only when necessary.
I do my homework before I go anywhere, so thanks for the advice. But if I need a new mommy, I'll let you know.
Wow, is Robbaf having a bad day? It happens to all of us.
I'm not sure what a "visa check card" is, but a standard VISA card / bank card can be used at the ATMs -- I'm pretty sure both Plus and STAR are represented in the Philippines.
Always have a backup. For example take cash and a backup card. The pickpockets are most prevelant on the jeepneys and also SM -- apparently they use a crowding /distraction technique at SM mall.
