Why foreigner managers are needed
Lucifier. Seems they don't hire foreigner manager to control their staff here, be careful visiting this place. Things got out of control, bouncers wanted to fight and mamasan screaming over nothing. A foreigner manager would have shut it all down as not an issue. But the Filipinos are very hot headed when left to their own so watch out for this place if you drink too much or get out of their favor. This is why foreigner managers are hired. To prevent the hot headed reaction Filipinos tend to have. Last thing you want on a vacation is for the cops to show up. When a bar can't control their staff and mamasan and look for a fight. Yes an actual fight. Come outside now and I'll show you who's boss type of fight. Then you have to take a step back and realize other bars are better options.
Be safe out there guys, last thing you want is to have trouble over nothing. Look for the clubs with a manager present.
Bar hops and few thoughts
Vikings bar still remains locked after the raid some weeks ago, many of the girls have moved on to other bars, saw some of them in shooters bar and geckos bar.
The town over the last couple of weeks has been very quiet to say the least, very very few western tourists and even though the Asian punter numbers have gone down too the Asians are still by far the dominant force by a long way.
Prices keep on going one way and that is up, many many below average, older plain janes are demanding 5 and 6 thousand pesos short time 1 pop, some earlier posters were saying that there is only 1 price barfine now in many bars and that is true, long time barfines are indeed a thing of the past it seems.
Drinks only girls, Asian only girls, early runners, Cherrie girls and I don't give blow job girls are to be found in most bars in high numbers, it seems that bar girls rule the roost, they do what they want when they want, seems management and mamas have given up with rules and just let the girls dictate their terms.
New bar has opened up on walking street called Madonna bar, its had lots of money spent on it and is still a work in progress but opening up as is to get some pesos back, prices seem high for punter drinks, think it was 150 or 160 pesos for sml from recollection, girl drinks 400 peso, barfines from memory started at 6,000 peso, ill head in again over the weekend and double check the prices to be sure, some ok looking girls (not stunners) seemed busy with koreans, not sure if the owners are koreans but they sure had a korean manager, I was the only westerner when there, over all a nice big bar, prices seem excessive though.
