I have another handle on Pi at Night and been going to AC since 2005. I ate at Louis's brothers' Pizza place a few times. Never met Louis himself but have met many who knew him.

Was Louis kidnapped and then murdered? Is that the jist of it? It is a a topic that can't be posted on PI at Night. I am just curious. Last I heard is his club High Society was doing great along with his hotel and then someone kidnapped him for ransom. Or at least that seems like what happened.

Was it like the guy who sold Cheese and food around AC who wore a backwards hat? Then a gang on motorcycles killed him. Apparently for taking customers?

I am sure this post is esoteric for most of you all. And if you are still reading. It would seem keeping a very owe profile and NOT competing with local businesses is quite healthy to say the least.

As far as Louis from Louis Grand goes. I am simply curious. Can't understand why I can't post about it on other boards.

Expats don't want to talk about Lewis' disappearance because they don't want to end up like him. Obviously, plenty of folks know what happened, and there were a couple others that disappeared also and one expat businessman who left AC and has never returned. It is such a shame that a guy with his vision and business acumen ended up as he did. Also, the Lewis Grand is currently closed and is in such a shameful state of disrepair. He disappeared on November 6th of 2015: raise a glass on that day for a real legend of AC.

Foreigners can not own property / land (FYI a condo is not land) so must have local partners who will own 51%. Business does good so the foreigner disappears thanks to his business partners and rice field nearby. Now the partners who once owned 51% now own 100% through some simple contractual legalize.

Same story is the foreigner who thinks he has rights and the law will be fair to him marries a Filipina. They build or buy a house. They go on a week vacation and when they return her family and her first real Filipino husband have moved in. Foreigner is kicked to the curb and not a damn thing he can do about it 99% of the time since they will have family and friends in the justice system and tons of witnesses saying the foreigner did X, why and Z to the poor girl.

I think a version is posted openly on the internet. I recall it was to do with asset ownership remembering that foreigners have restrictions on what they can own. Therefor they they need to have local business partners. As the net worth of the investment would have been growing there would have been envy about the returns being received. Eventually it would have become cheaper to have the gentleman removed and disappeared allowing the assets to be wholly owned by the surviving business partners.

I think the "proof" that he wasn't murdered was that after his disappearance his phone was calling or messaging from Thailand. Problem was that his passport was still in PH.

I see that the hotel itself is looking pretty rundown.

This girl is far better looking than this pic shows. She was damn near perfect and she sure knew it. She was a good performer but she had a bitchy little attitude. That just increased the joy I felt when I grabbed her by the ears and pounded my turgid trouser snake against the back of her throat.

I spent another 5 days in AC and here are some general observations.

1. Monday to Wed is very slow. Not many mongers but a lot of girls. Things start picking up Thu for the weekend.

2. A lot of bars are Korean owned but the girls seem to go with everyone. I barfined out of 3 Korean owned bars and the girls all agreed with no fuss. A good thing about the Korean bars is the girls are trained to go Long Time. I barfined a couple out of a bar at 2 pm and they stayed through the next morning with no issues and 3 x boom boom was understood. Plus they at least have some standards for the girls they hire.

3. Some bars had not a single girl you would even buy a drink for let alone bar fine.

4. Why is it that waitresses are prettier than the dancers in almost all the bars?

5. Girls attitudes vary a lot. In Lollipop and Shooters the girls were energetic, dancing, lap dancing for drinks and wear bikinis. In 123 bar they wore their street clothes and sat on the stage with their back to customers playing on their phones. Guess which ones were making drink money? LOL.

6. You can find a gem now and then at the Raymond ST bars. I found a skinny 18 yo that probably weighed 75 lbs but was the wildest thing in bed. All for 1500 Peso.

Anyway, 2 trips to AC this year is probably enough for me. Probably hit Pattaya next time.

I made visit to Angeles from the USA after 3 years. Here are my experiences:

Bars: Went to Club Sky and another one across from La Bamba. The bar fine was 4000-5000 PP range. Girls were decent. Depending on girl it could be long or short time.

Fields avenue was business, but you see many places on walking street closing down.

Hotels: Stayed at the ABC. A little pricey but made up for it in terms of great service and quality food.

Two weeks later:

"Hey CenTex! Google Maps here! It's been two weeks since your visits to Fields Street, Burgos Street, LA Cafe, care to leave any reviews?

Thank you, Google.

Hahaha. Not to mention FB, Google etc's targeted advertising.

"Honey, why am I getting all these suggestions for Viagra and ST hotels in Pattaya?

On Agoda, many hotels offer two prices for the same room: 1) The regular (higher usually) priced room, with a free cancellation (REFUND); and 2) The lower priced room that comes with NO REFUND. See pic. You could just make a reservation for somewhere in your safe non-mongering city at the higher-priced room, print it out, then cancel it for a refund.

"I am NOT in Philippines drinking with Westy. Honey I am in Scotland golfing!" Of course now you must photoshop some fake pics of yourself on the green.

Yes and no. There have been several times where I have had to show airlines staff thier own policies or how X passport is treated by Z country.

I was checking into my flight which made a plane change in China with a 3 hour layover. The ticket agent lady asked me if I had a visa and I informed her I do not need one. First, I am not leaving the airport so do not need a visa. Second, China had just implemented a 48 hour visa free stamp.

I don't think they run these days. The big buses are not bad.

Does anyone know if the 'Fly The Bus' or 'Southern Cross' buses are still operating? Are there any foreigner buses that travel back and forth from AC to Manila? Or Subic? I know the public buses are still running.

Having said that, tread carefully because if you piss them off, then you are going nowhere.

Enjoy. G.

I have found I useful, in the Covid chaos, to get details from various sources with the airline funded join sherpa https://apply.joinsherpa.com/travel-...language=en-US being very good but not sufficient. I checked ferry companies too as this was important with various countries changing their rules from one day to the next. Eg Dutch people could fly from Portugal to the Netherlands but not from Spain, evne though they could go from Spain to Portugal and then fly.

I would not rely on airline / airport staff who often get the passports (and therefore v isa requirements) of the PLR of China and the Republic of China (Taiwan) refused. Also, some Western fascist countries ask you to propduce cash. But some travellers from some countries eg Japan have been refused for having plastic.

I've been pulled for having no check in luggage and I explain to them I do not see heck in luggage when entering or exiting the Philippines as they are crooks.

Hi SJ,

So how do non Phil dwellers like me get a confirmed room to arrive to when the prices of the hotels are not always available?

Thanks.

Victor.

My suggestion is to use the AGODA weasels or other third party site to find the hotel that you want. Then do the legwork to contact the hotel direct to book. Yes, there are some hotels where this is impossible.

Related note; when booking flights I use meta searches (Kayak.com, Google Flights) to find the best deal and then I go direct to the airline site to book the same flight (s).
