Manila

[X Man]

First of all, listen to CL.

Second, I don't know YOUR situtaion, but I could easily take out three or four Filipinas (half my age) for a night out on the town for less than what it costs me for a date HERE. (Nevertheless, the last date HERE turned out to be a a multi orgasmic squealer, so I'm not complaining)

Third, if you like discos, you'll have fun. If not, suggest another venue.

Fourth, listen to CL

Guys,

Thanks for the info and advice as I finalize the plans for my trip. One last area where I would like to seek the collective knowledge of the board.

I intend on meeting up with 1 girl I met in Filipino Heart. So far she doesn't strike me as being a pro. She has a job and seems above board (although I am sure all these girls portray this). She keeps talking about heading out to the disco with her friends. I imagine I am being set up for a night out on the town courtesy of the Westerner. I don't mind being a little bit generous, but I just hate the thought of being taken advantage of. Should I be concerned? Should I think differently of this girls intentions because of this? Should I avoid this? Or is this just the filipino way?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Read on another board that xyz member was talking to owner of LA Cafe at G-Point and he told him LAC would open today (Monday 11th Sept)
Can anybody comfirm????

Asiafloyd,

I received an email from a girl who actually works at the LA CAFE and she told me in the email that the owner told her they would be re-opening this week. I know how things go in the PI so I was reluctant to post anything since it would be a rumour and because of what Cebu Local posted.

my honeyko needed a nap so I slipped down to meet a friend/client at Heritage and we took a mosy across the street. PitStop had 2 doable ones, Cotton club the same, Firestation ZERO and so on. Granted it was Sunday night but WOW has the caliber of pekpek declined if last night was at all representitive of the current status quo. With Visions gone, LA Cafe closed and the talent at EDSA so poor that I was not even really tempted, what used to be Manila's primary redeeming feature is less and less so.

On the other hand, my Chery Blossoms honeyko has turned into pure gold and I am a well satiated maliboog (:

PS Mall of Asia on Sunday was SO packed with babes it made your head spin (though I had to be careful). The ice skating rink in particular offers a plethora of pekpek there for the plucking.

Filipina girls usually show potential Boyfriends to their friends so that they can give their opinion of you,Get used to it,Its cultural

I too have tinkered paying the subscription for Filapina Heart cos some of the girls there appear very hot and not from a bar existance. But as i already have a girl from LA Cafe who im very fond of I only want to have fun but with a non-bargirl type of girl.

I have a girl in Cebu who i spent one night with from Blackhole, She finished her bargirl career and back going to school. I was contemplating spending a few days with her in Cebu and then the scam came, mu aunty won't support me anymore and i need 10k pesos a month to survive.
Fxxk me, tell me a filapina/filopino that needs 10k a month to survive.

Everyone seems to be worried about getting ripped off by "Pros". You are more likely to get ripped off by taxi drivers in Manila, from what I experienced. I only met 1 or 2 potential scammers out of over 40 girls.

You will be able to tell the rip offs, just don't judge too quickly. Generally, if you are going out to lunch, a picnic, etc., you will be paying for everyone. Some will try to reciprocate in a fashion that they can afford, but you will be appreciated.

Just enjoy yourself and don't buy anybody (or her brother) a Tryke and you'll have a good time, LOL.

You're talking about a small amount of money either way. Taking out a bunch of girls to a disco should cost no more than about $40 and you will likely have a good time and maybe meet some beautiful girls who you can possibly hook up with if you handle it right.

Klon,

I travelled from Manila airport recently. I simply mumbled "e-ticket" to the security guy at the terminal entrance and he let me in. It might be safe for you to have a printed copy of your e-ticket just in case you encounter a more officious reception.

On a similar note, be aware that Manila Airport has invoked the full Trans-Atlantic no liquids in carry on baggage rules. Before you go to the airport, make sure all of your liquids (after shave, toothpaste, KY jelly, lotion, ointment tubes, deodorant) are packed in your checked baggage to avoid hassles at the security screening checkpoint.

Have fun

I don't know if this is the right forum, but I try. I am going to Philippines (Manila and Angeles) for the time, and just to prepare everything I tried to check info on the airport. Do I understand it right, that you cannot go into the airport if you don't have a ticket, and an E-ticket is not enough? If so, what should I do to get into the airport when I am going back?

Thank you,

Klon

[AsiaFloyd]

have used e ticket before and is perfectly acceptable along with your passport.

You will be required to demonstrate that you are scheduled to travel at the time you arrive at the airport. An e-ticket is fine, as long as you can show any supporting docs such as a computer printout. On my return trip last June, I showed a Travelocity email on my PDA, and security passed me through.

Yes, you need a ticket to go into the airport, but an E-ticket is perfectly ok! Believe you me, no problem at all!

Happy trip - Hesekiels

My guess is that LACafe was drawing too much business away from the Burgos and EDSA establishments.

On the other hand, this article about contraceptives seems to indicate he may be very conservative:
http://www.pcij.org/stories/print/2005/pills.html

I lived in Manila for many years. During both Fred Lim's regime and Lito Atienza's and became very close to Mayor Lim. He had many events at my facility during the time he ran for president. Lito was his vice mayor and is pious and sanctimonious hypocrite IMOHO. Total double standards. Just wants to stay Mayor and will do what ever it takes to do that.

I seriously doubt he will close down all the other places. LA Cafe owners probably just crossed him and he slapped them down.

Nothing much has changed since I moved away from Manila 6 years ago and nothing is likely to change in the next six.

All just editorial BS from ES
