Anyhow, Here is a bit of good news: Starting in September Costa Rica will waive it's 14 day quarantine for US Citizens / tourists from 6 American States provided these visitors can provide evidence that they tested negative for the Corona 48 hours prior to arrival and carry required medical insurance. I guess some country had to be the first to reopen. This sounds like a pretty good policy not just for tourists and mongers, but for everyone concerned. I hope the Philippine government gets smart and copies it. Costa Rica is a very beautiful country and it has many great beaches. I used to spend a lot of time there when it was really a treasure back in the 70's & '80's before I discovered SE Asia. Today I prefer Asian girls, however, 555. Still, this is good news. It shows that there is light at the end of the tunnel as more countries follow suit and open their borders to healthy visitors, lower fatality rates are being achieved due to a greater knowledge of the virus, yes even in America (OMG), and quite possibly there will be a vaccine by the end of the year.
BTW, I live in Florida, which is one of the 6 states that is not initially on the list of states allowed into CR in September. Yeah, we have pretty high Corona numbers and it amazes me frankly, but the vast majority of Floridians know how to take care of themselves and stay healthy. We don't want the government to tell us what we have to do. We like out freedom here.

Americans are known for their arrogance of flouting the law once they gain entry to Canada. Right now, one of the few reasons they are allowed into Canada without quarantine is to drive directly to Alaska and even then they are encouraged to not use hotels and use drive through restaurants only. Recently it has been found that Americans have been using their stated direct trips to take a leisurely sightseeing side trips even stopping in our National Parks. It has become a significant enough problem that the R.C.M.P have started charging Americans with fines in the range of $2,500. And yes Canadians are calling the police when they see American licence plates where they ought not be seen. And yes Canadian authorities are following up.
WR is correct, North Americans are clueless about the ways to properly handle this pandemic. A case in point is how Vietnam dealt with their first outbreak. They locked down the country, provided testing and tracing, and in some cases locked down whole cities when a single new case as discovered. Within a couple months their citizens were out and free to wander the streets and party. They were more than three months without a new case. Ninety million people with less than 500 cases and no deaths. Recently they have had a new outbreak and they are going thorough the same process. I predict they will obtain similar results although this time they have suffered about 25 deaths. There are times when acting for the "the greater good" has to supersede individual rights and freedoms and it seems most Asian countries understand this. If North Americans understood this we would be out enjoying football and baseball rather than looking for a political excuse for exemptions.

I was booked to go back to Vietnam in February and cancelled my trip. I was concerned how a developing country would be able to handle the virus. In hindsight I wish I had gone as I suspect I would have been safer there than I am in North America where our leaders are afraid to lead. Had I gone I would still be enjoying my time there. Instead I suspect it will be late 2021, or longer if a vaccine is not available, before North Americans will be welcomed back to Asian countries.
Nut.

Sadly it is fact read the news as it is all there and I state the basics facts unlike many world leaders who seem to think the public are stupid.
Read the news Salty as this gives an insight into the world. I know for a fact that you can't travel to the Philippines as a monger yet as no tourist visas so far, that USA tourists have been dobbed in by others as they don't obey self ISO rules.
https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/14/w...uarantine.html
https://www.thejournal.ie/bars-resta...48431-Jul2020/
Read those and then Google for others Salty LOL as most places in the world don't allow USA citizens to visit their countries and why should they? Now if we have a vaccine that works then things change but until then I will only see my family in the USA using Skype etc sadly.
I have family in the USA (southern states) some of whom are old / frail and high risk so I read the news and clearly understand that while I would like to go see them I can't and would not risk travel to a country that clearly has no idea how to handle a pandemic.

But was a good list to tell others where not to go. As shows where Americans are allowed to go so best avoid those places as the infection rate there etc is the highest (or one of top 3) in the world and given the reaction to it is clueless ways to control this pandemic would you want to be close to any source of infections (or would the cuties either? In Ireland the locals have called the police at times when see an American tourist LOL.
But in the end there has been no mention that tourist visas will be reissued so all this is speculation at best.
And of course your balls must be super blue if you must fly Delta anywhere LOL.

Delta is looking to resume scheduled MNL service from Inchon, Oct 25th. That is a good sign, but still subject to postponement if countries don't open up.

As for travel, the Thai king and Duterte have shown that travel is possible. Both are examples of people escaping their home country. The anti globalization might not happen right away so I suspect there has to be travel to keep economies going. Just look around and read. Another British government official was caught travelling and setting a bad example, as if he really cares.
As for pussy, there are always some around. Maybe one or two paper shopping bags required. Otherwise it is time to get a nice Kindle and rediscover the joy of reading.
As for the Asian groceries stores, unfortunately, Trump might force them to sell to cvs, pathmart or Walmart.

Posts: 405The socioeconomic situation of Asians in Western Society Summit going on here is killing my boner even more than I thought possible. One thing that does come from a result of these 2nd 3rd and 4rd generation immigrant family's is they get progressively less attractive to me as their western brainwashing completes and they lose all sense of the culture we all enjoy so much overseas. They tend to get much more entitled and self serving. Today I would never dream of touching anything "American" or americanized, I'm saving all that trump money for trips to the shiittyest parts on asia and looking for the most disenfranchised women possible. Empowerment and independence are all huge boner killers for me personally maybe your more beta male like a more domineering woman. The only real side effect of Asian girls in America is that they gain a sense of empowerment sends chills down my spine.
The very first nipple I ever saw was of this 2nd generation Philippino girl that lived in a mansion in Duarte California in the 80's (NOT POOR) and I've been hooked ever since. Take Mirella Ponce (google her, known as the hot pinay mugshot girl) is kind of a good baseline for what asian "american" girls turn into. In the early 90's asian american fever was at its peak I remember going to many a "hot import night" car convention which were really just hot asian girl conventions. Daily city still has some Fil-Am focused festivals where you can intermingle with Fil-ams. I would say that Asian Americans are disenfranchised becasue they want to be, they mostly try to stick to closely knit communities (they seem to be slumming it more than genuinely poor). The later generations are much more indoctrinated and are less self isolating, asian women eventually start to date ONLY western men. There was some study done on modern online dating where Asian Males and Black females were the most racially discriminated against, which I would say is pretty accurate. Outcalls in the USA were costing me about $300-$1000 an hour with import models in the early 90's. When I learned I could bang 10 girls for a total trip cost of around 2-3 k I was hooked. I used to spend $1000's of dollars on hook ups in hotels on the strip in las vegas and incall / outcalls / asian message parlors in Daily city and Fresno. To this day in Las Vegas for some Asian Instagram hoe could run you anywhere from $350-$2000 (These girls in las vegas are at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder and make $2 k an hour) and in manila the same quality girl will run you $50-$100 asians in western countries are not poor. Asian girls in America have 500%-1000% the income they do in their respective home countries even at the poorest levels. The western world and the WHO 2025 directives to end social economic strife also in turn mean an end to some mongering destinations eventually.

Posts: 417There is a mixture of factual and non factual info on immigration from what everyone is saying.
- Asian American households (1st gen immigrants and their children) tend to do well economically because a significant proportion of them came into the country more educated than your average American. This doesn't necessarily mean all these immigrants waltzed into high paying jobs, even those that operate the laundry shops and convenience stores often have bachelor degrees and higher from their home countries. This tends to bleed into the decisions they make for their businesses and their families (I. E. Financial planning and literacy, strong education, taking advantage of government policies and opportunities, networking etc). And of course those that do waltz into high paying jobs also add to the mix.
- Asian American households (1st gen) also tend to have higher levels of poverty than the average American household. Particularly those from the South East Asian community, for example up to a quarter of Malaysian Americans in the US live below the poverty line. And that's before we talk about the undocumented Asian immigrants.

How many times must the head attached to your groin realize Philippines is not safe enough yet. Look at statistics, speak to people there (some of whom have rarely left their houses since mid March), read the news without that head making judgement etc.
Simply put I doubt you will visiting until 2021 and that depends as has been noted before if tourists are allowed kin (I am still unclear is SSRV holders can get back still).
It also assumes your country will prioritize you for a vaccine shot over others deemed more high risk so best listen to the advice of previously and play at home, with yourself or both LOL.
And remember politicians who truly care about the man in the street are are rare all over the world LOL.
