[QUOTE=Sammon]Not all girls are interested in studying. I had a GF from BAYBAY, LEYTE for 4 years. She went to the university there. I supported her through school. Initially she wanted to study to be a veterinarian but changed her mind to be a nurse. Initially she would send me her report cards or show it to me when I went and stayed stayed there in a Hotel but later when I asked she was evasive.
Sometimes what they say is not what they do. I gave up on the girl after four years of support. After I stopped my support she kept on begging me and told me that she will behave and will study and will always listen to my advice. But once I have no confidence in her I let her go.
My advice is if you want to support in studies make sure they follow your advice and give you transcripts of their scores. These girls are easily sidetracked from their goals.[/QUOTE]

That's a sample of 1 Sammon. Of course there are scammers but don't put a negative spin on guys who are trying to help genuine students who DO want a better life.

Some of us are sharp enough to only give assistance to those who are bona fide students.
I support 4 kids (2 boys; 2 girls) to go to Night High School through a private foundation. They come from the poorest of the poor families. It costs me 3000 php PER YEAR in fees for each student (that's 12,000 php) to give 4 kids a new life.
The four of them are now in 4th year HS and are fantastic, dedicated students but desperately poor.
I meet them every year at re-enrolment and graduation, and their gratitude is extreme.
They will succeed. I plan to keep supporting them to college if they want.
It is possible to support deserving kids without any ulterior motive of seeking compensation

Take a look at how many students in your own country drop out or change course at University. Re defining career choices, after taking classes in an area seems wise and a sign of growing up. Of course, if your deal was that your support was conditional on certain rules, and she understood those rules then she may have learned a hard lesson. One that Pinays (and many in the west) often fail to learn.

[QUOTE=Wicked Roger]FF
I can vouch for Rk's advice as helped out a lady recently in the same predicament...one you also know FF.

Books were there in a day and she was very happy..and RK will be rewarded and thanked trust me, next time he visits the city....:D

But I am very happy to help the lady's education (both sexual :D and no sexual) when I can. Sometimes we lose sight of how easy we had it education-wise with good, free schooling in our home countries and when you are on the ground as RK and FF are, you realise how important education is to many pinays ..hence many will ask for help with school fees.

Issue is to find the genuine ones..and when you do then you will get many brownie points IMHO[/QUOTE]

WR,

I am in complete agreement. I am currently putting my GF thru her masters program, and we put her daughter in a Montisori school. The girl is very smart and I hope this will give her a chance to really blossom. Without an education these children have almost NO chance to break the cycle of poverty. I met a nice lady in Havana a few weeks ago, and she was on school break from college. We spent a lot of time talking about education and opportunity and she detailed to me her plans to finish, when, and what to do later. I paid her the agreed upon fee and kept her number. We sms occasionally and about a month ago, she started school again. She never asked for more money, and was evasive when I asked how "work" was going. She said she wasn't working much because she had to study and go to class. I sent her money to buy books and a few groceries unprompted and will continue to do so on occasion as long as I have some idea she is really going to school. If it helps her get where she wants to go, or just adds a little to self esteem, then I feel good doing it, regardless of how we met.

[QUOTE=Red Kilt]I don't understand what you are saying.

I am not saying ANYTHING about sending money with LBC.

I am talking about buying 2 college books in Manila for a girl and then sending them to her in her Visayan province by LBC so she can have them for her study rather than sending her the money to buy them.

She is a bona fide student.[/QUOTE]Ok. Let me rephrase it.

I wouldn't bother to buy and go to LBC to send the books, if it is a smaller amount, I would rather just send the money let her sort it out. Or let God worry about what she is doing with the money. Whether red horse for her lover or really school books

If she was really in need of the books, they always have sources, like one of my girl friend in Palawan does, she has friends in Manila, who buy and send the books by LBC.

Sort of Like the USMC saying "KILL THEM ALL. LET GOD SORT THEM OUT." (maybe that didn't rhyme well.)

I notice that several guys here are supporting ladies by sending them some allowance from time to time, so I have a question.

When sending money through xoom or other, how do you keep your identiy hidden from the ladies?

A "dear" friend of mine is talking about returning to school, as she had to stop due to poor economy, and I was thinking of sending her a small contribution from time to time. However, she only knows me by my mongering name and I have no interest in giving out my real identity to her. She never asked for anything, just mentioning it time and again on her facebook profile, where I am the only non-pinoy among her friends (me having two FB profiles. One for family and one for pinays)

(My wife and I are already supporting a young lady in Lombok, Indonesia studying to become a nurse. However, this was an orphan we met while on vacation there a few years ago that had been supported through some aid program through high school/college. We even had to open a bank account for her to be able to send her funds. She will hopefully pass her exam 2011)

Curios me.

[QUOTE=Andre007]I am a member of several forum groups and over the years I have been able to gather and use some valuble information and have gained much knowledge that has helped me in my 3-year experience here in the Philippines. It's time for me to share my story and I hope it helps somebody.

My Girlfriend gave birth to a baby girl July, 2007. Of course I was happy and excited but had doubts on weather or not it was my child. I am Black American so the baby had some Characteristics including the curly(kinky) hair LOL. The baby did not favor me but mixed babies sometimes are like that.

A year later I learn my Girlfriend may have slept with others before pregnancy. Of course she denied this. I decided it was time to get a DNA Test. After checking here in the Philippines I found out the price was over P50,000 for a legal test and P30,000 for General FYI test, and you had to travel to Manila. That would cost easily another P15,000 for travel expenses. That was way out of my budget.

I decided to do a goggle search and I found a company in Manila selling a home kit for P15,000 which was allot less but in my mind still too expensive for the Philippines.

I also found another one in the USA which charges for $99USD plus express shipping for $60.00. Considering that it was cheaper, I contacted it however, the shipment got caught in customs and I never managed to retrieve it. I asked again the company to send me another kit and reship through regular mail but I never received it. I ended up spending more.

It was then that I contacted an Attorney from a referral who I heard has home DNA testing kits. Apparently, she was able to secure these test kits from a reputable company in the USA which offers Home DNA testing kits for a lot less. The lawyer was charging me for a total of $189USD and if I wanted to express ship back to the USA or their Australia office for the results, I will have to pay $20USD. The results would be made by email.

The kit which had my mouth swab was shipped to the company;s office in Australia. I was able to get results 10 days after receipt. Well as you all probably have guessed the Precious baby girl was not mine. Of course bothered and disturbed I was happy at least I found out. I guess she likes black men because the baby was a black mix.

After this has happened to me my attorney and I started doing research about Paternity fraud and DNA testing in the Philippines. There are no accredited labs in the Philippines and of course the cost is so much. My attorney contacted the company who originally did my test and became a reseller of DNA Testing kits in the Philippines so many won’t have to go thru what I went thru. After a few weeks of being in the market, it is amazing that most clients who have been requesting for test kits are not foreigners but Filipinos especially seamen or overseas workers.

I hope my story will help another person here in the Philippines and everywhere. My Attorney is also challenging Legislator and attempting to set a precedent with case law to allow the Home testing kits for legal testing if a chain of command is followed.

I don't know if I am allowed to give my Attorney name and number thru this site or if admin will allow me to post names or numbers but feel free to contact me thru PM and I will gladly give you her number.

Be Careful and Be Watchful!

Curios me.[/QUOTE]

This can be difficult. In the UAE noone ever asks for ID so easy to hide your name. In other countries that want ID you can be a tad screwed. if you usea credit card maybe it acceprts different names (sender and CC name). Here where I work now, I must show 2 IDs so no chance to have a different name so if i needed to send I would ask a friend to do and make an excuse.

Very difficult to do these days unless you ask a friend to do it for you.

The world has changed as more and more strategies are in place now to track money as it moves around the world, even though you might be talking "peanuts".

[QUOTE=Marconista]IWhen sending money through xoom or other, how do you keep your identiy hidden from the ladies?

Curios me.[/QUOTE]Marconsita,

I send money to my GF from Australia using a company called Jalandoni & Co. Whilst I don't need to keep my identity private to her, when she gets her bank statement it shows payments by Antonio Jalandoni (not me). When I want to send pesos I ring their telephone line here in Sydney which quotes the daily exchange rate I then wait on the line and tell the operator I will be transfering $x into their account and they then transfer into the bank account of my GF. Service costs $9 each sending and exchange rate is very good (comparatively). Funds are available in her account within 2 hours. My GF banks with BDO and they are accredited by BDO and I have noticed they are accredited with other banks as well. J & Co have accounts with all the major banks here so their receipt of an EFT is immediate as I just transfer into an account here with the same bankers as I use. I used to use Western Union but the fees and exchange rate were bad. I was told about this service by some Filipino friends here, checked their bona fide with the BDO bank and have been happy since.

Be aware that J & Co did their checks on me as I had to send copies of ID's etc. This is a requirement of anti money laundering legislation here in Australia. They also needed name and address of my GF and obviously her bank details.

Hope this helps.

Please can someone tell me what the going rate is for a girl, monthly that is,(I like gfe).

I hate to pay too little or to much.

[QUOTE=Marconista]I notice that several guys here are supporting ladies by sending them some allowance from time to time, so I have a question.

When sending money through xoom or other, how do you keep your identiy hidden from the ladies?[/QUOTE]I asked at my bank if I could send Western Union anonymously. They said no. I asked the teller who is a friendly guy how I could get round this.

He explained that if I write a name similar to my real name but with some spelling errors he would complete the transaction.

They take a copy of my ID for bank purposes, but for the transaction the girl receives money from someone whos name is nearly mine but not quite. Theres no google search on the name I give.

Been doing this for past 4 years now.

Once a different teller asked me why name is different, told her that Immigration had made a mistake on my ID and I would be correcting it.

I also always so them the previous WU form so they can see that transaction went through with the incorrect name.

[QUOTE=Col Law]Please can someone tell me what the going rate is for a girl, monthly that is,(I like gfe).

I hate to pay too little or to much.[/QUOTE]Going rate is determined by how much you can afford..

I am sure Many of the seniors will definitely agree with me.

If you are broke, your girls lover will be a trike driver, if you are well to do, he will be driving a Jeepney, and if you are even well to do, he will be driving a Ford Explorer.

And. Let me quote this example: I met a filipina, in Singapore, and when she wanted to go somewhere I said 'lets take the bus. ' and guess what she said? "I never use the bus in Philippines. " and coming from a girl working as a maid here, that was rich.

Of course, if she didn't get the impression of me being rich, it would have been perfectly fine.

Can anyone tell what the usual weather will be in beach area like Puerto Galera in early to mid August?

Does the girl scene get smaller during that off season?

I, m just assuming it is off season due to rain.

Does it rain all day or just in evening?

Does it rain all day or just in evening?[/QUOTE]It is a tropical climate. So it may rain in the morning, and then sunny in the afternoon and rain in the evening, or it could be incessant non-stop rain. And it may blow into a gale and that can kill a few days off your time. With all ferries and boats suspended, except the Ro-Ros off San Jose to Batangas.

Generally, such storms/typhoons are forecasted about a week ahead.

Do a check with the dive shop operators. They do have some decent info on Weather patterns. Check on Big Apple Dive. Drop them an email.

It pisses rain. comes down in sheets.

Sometimes it is just cloudy all day and then pisses rain half of the evening.

When I get back to civilization, people always ask me why I don"t have a tan.Sometimes I tell the truth, I spent most of my holiday in bed.
