Lack of ID: not a red flag (common amongst poor).

Police clearance letter: That's 'unusual'. Do you mean NBI clearance? May indicate she has been on the emigration conveyor belt either OFW...

G'day MA, if your textors are too poor / uneducated to avail of IP telephony the last resort is to buy an OFW Sim from Globe, load it up with max credit and enable roaming on it just before you board...

I have been very concerned about some of the recent posts in the AC thread endorsing this 'all the women are for sale' mentality. I wish you could cross post it over there mate. I'm glad your friend...

5 year highs earlier in the year. Official figures are current only until July. (Check out the Korean numbers, phew).

Anecdotally cancellations are occurring. Awaiting next batch of numbers.

100% agree Paul. This + VPN = conduct work / business / play SAFELY.

Hotel WiFi is *insecure*.

Westy, I can read & post there. The lock used to mean 'read only' or in other words, one can read but not post. This was a form of archiving old posts. I'm guessing it's a software glitch or admin...

Opera was an independently developed browser that eventually folded & became a re-skinned Chrome.

Essentially BYO but if you're young & gwapo you'll get laid anywhere. Flaunting wealth attracts putas. Where are you in this picture?

SP apologises if I misunderstood your intent. It's all part of the rough & tumble of forum discussions. I post erratically because I'm shooting from the hip from my phone whilst busy. Let's take it...

Hey SS you need to be careful about flinging all those accusations around. 1) When my girls turn up in their garb & ask me to help them complete their assignments before we play, I'm pretty darn sure...

ID Costs money. Most girls will not have any or at best school ID (expired if left school & working somewhere) or if you're lucky 'postal ID' (used to collect the all important Western Union from...

Me neither bro. Another thing to look out for next time I jump a jet. Joy.

Long standing tradition of treating their poor like shit in their own country. Locals pay taxes on air fares that foreigners don't etc. Nothing new.

None taken RA. Getting medical advice from a sex board is not the best place right? But at least we can point him in the right direction.

You're right an ectopic would be disastrous. An ectopic is...

Time for her stop being 'worried'. Congratulations you are both parents. Ok I've been in this situation once (oops. My bad).

The medications you mention will do the trick but getting hold of them...

The guy rattles off a long list of legitimate grievances. Nothing has changed. If all things stayed the same then RP could go on like this indefinitely but they are surrounded by regional neighbours...

Been reading these stories of woe for many years & yet never experienced anything like it living in Manila or frequent visitor. Take it all with a grain of salt. If you get overcharged $2 is it...

Its not experience of Makati branch of HSBC but glad to hear things have improved. What's with the sig?

I'm no longer a customer so I was speaking in retrospect. Thanks for confirming things have improved. Those gymnastics you describe may depend on the good will / gullibility of the staff on the day....

Need to be well funded to get one of those. Just sayin. He'll also need help on the Philippine end to establish an account there. They are pretty well useless with 'walk'ins' in the PI.

This 'article' is just an ad for a book. File under spam.

All of these non bank services are a bit mickey mouse. For example, Transferwise claim on their website to support AUD but if you establish an account and try to send funds, AUD is no where to been...

Thanks Roger. A sloppy piece of journalism IMHO that mentions an unnamed study by a political scientist from DLS which wanders off into hyperbole. One can not disagree with the sentiments however....
