Posts: 4050Level III
I got an email today from an American friend who lives in Angeles. According to him, all of Pampanga has been classified as a Level III area, meaning that severe restrictions are in place. He told me than in Angeles City, no one can enter any establishment without first presenting proof of full vaccinations. He also said that all bars are closed and that liquor sales have been prohibited. Evidently the Omicron variant is burning its way quickly through the city. He added that the directives from the local mayor change almost daily, are poorly communicated, and as a result there's quite a bit of confusion over what is and is not permitted. At one point, he said, no one over the age of 60 (and no children up to 18) were allowed outside the home, and then the age limit was raised to 65. He however, said that despite his age, he had no problems moving around and was rarely asked how old he is. He was however, consistently asked to provide proof of vaccination.
The picture he painted suggests that at the moment the city is fairly bleak. For those with imminent plans to go there, it would probably be a good idea to defer them for another 6 or 8 weeks at a minimum.

I live in Davao and have not been on a flight since the whole mess began, but I do retain close contact with friends living elsewhere including Manila. Here in Davao, panic buying, also known as hoarding, has already begun though the reported infection rate here is low and very few cases of Omicron have been reported. However, the general public, or large swaths of it, appear to know that a surge here is inevitable. Stores have already started to run short of staple items and they're much more crowded that usual. The local government has started to aggressively promote booster shots, and I think is doing its best to ensure a plentiful supply of vaccines. The streets at night are sparsely populated and bars and restaurants haven't been permitted to sell alcohol for about two years and those restrictions will not end anytime soon.
I would advise against planning any trips here until at least July or August, and there are no guarantees that the country will be re-opened for tourism by then, but that's the time that seems most likely to me.

It was all store fronts and black market. On the black market a $100 bill gave you at least 10% better exchange rate. With that said, on a typical day, you could find an all you could drink bar from 5-7 pm that would set you back $3-$5. Then get some food and drink into the evening and find your girl and barfine her. Total cost for the night $20 plus taxi in the am. Not sure how AC is now, but when you paid the barfine back then, there was no more money exchanged. The bar paid the girl out of the barfine. And it was always longtime. Never had short time in PI.
There were a few bars you could get laid in as well. Or get a BJ while sitting with your buds drinking a beer. I was in a bar one night on Fields Ave drinking with my friends and felt my zipper go down. Girl pulls my cock out and goes to town. She was trying to get me in a a back room and it definitely worked. Can't ever forget the famous sex shows at the Nipa Hut on McArthur Blvd. That place was twisted nasty and I'm so happy to have experienced that place a few times in my life.
I've also spent some time banging Korean chicks so I can see why those dudes travel to the PI, LOL.
