Stupid Shit in the Philippines

[QUOTE=Sammon;2662848]Philippines airlines mentions only these things required to enter Philippines. No mention of Traze or any other apps.

1. PCR test 48 hours before leaving country of origin.

2. Medical coverage in the amount of 35000 dollars minimum. I am quoted 92 dollars for three weeks.

3. Passport valid for six months.

4. Return ticket out of Philippines.[/QUOTE]Makes sense. I'd still cover all bases and be all about Beavis' list. As a reminder, PAL's website is not responsible for what they put on there. If you get all 4 of those things, the list might change before your flight, and there is little chance PAL will make the website change (nor notify you of the change). The good news is that PAL is responsible at the point of your longbow check-in (ie, SFO) of any requirements. They really do want you to get on the flight, and they will hand you any needed new documents to fill out right there.

90 clams for 3 weeks seems reasonable.

One thing surprising me is that in most post I read here about the medical insurance I see that quite everybody take a special one for some weeks or more and pay for that a specific amount, sometimes more than 100 $.

Maybe I miss something or maybe in some countries it doesn't exist but I saw that the insurance linked with my credit card, Mastercard but Visa do the same, is already covering me for all medical expenses during travel including hospital with a maximum of 1000000 euros.

I called them to get confirmation, and they confirm, covid is included in the coverage.

They can also send a proof letter for this coverage if we show them the flight ticket.

So. Maybe its specific for Europe, but first check if you are not already covered by your credit or debit card.

Oh man is it too late to join the NA cocklord bashing? Pedromorales hating americans I don't see anything wrong in that.

Most of the times I meet someone mentally disabled either irl or online it is in 60+ percent of the cases an American am afraid. Tbf tho there are some nice Americans for sure, I met them, but again I can't stress enough that the purest of retards, the supporters of white knight faggotry, the gender and feminism supporters I met were more commonly Americans than Europeans or what have you. That.

Gay shit didn't start in Europe guess where this pure af form of insanity started. Am assuming one tends to get a retard very quickly when not being able to travel few hundred km for some nice cheap shags or not having any even borderline acceptable options for prosies in America. Couple hundred usd for a sweet Korean student is best over there from what I read.

Look at all the active PI BMs with ridiculous amounts of posts failing to use the stupid shit in the Philippines thread and thinking they contribute any value to the board by posting useless doggy in not only general info but the whole board. Those Biden lovers taking moral high ground on PC topics on a forum related to 95 ish percent shagging prosies. [blue][Deleted by Admin][/blue]

The boomer meme poster who enjoys wearing pampers in his face for 2 yrs telling other people to stand around like a prosy taking it up the ass with failed government politics, sorry man imperative should only be used if you're in position to do so. Dumbass.

WC being so offended by someone making use of freedom of speech while bashing others its just hypocritical or proof me wrong. 5 k+ posts and can't handle some slurs on the internet lmao. Goes crying to admin too saying please ban thinking it will change anything in the slightest, absolute pussy man. Who needs watermarked and censored reposting of images like common the creampies are nice but everything else just cringe af. I went through 20 k plus pictures on this board and it was true pain bc of that shit man.

Saw some stupid ass boomer emojis too like who uses that shit. Probably gets his information on facebook or boulevard newspapers at best.

PI excellent travel destination but with a mask mandate its just such a pain to get around that. Being vaccinated is enough I can't believe it takes the world so long to understand. Every supporter of covid policy deserves Guantanamo getting smoked like a witch 200 yrs ago or worse, no trial no nothing like the terrorists they are. We all know where that prison is and which president promised to close it and didn't, instead he gets a Nobel peace price for bombing Libya and doing other stupid shit lmao.

Sadly PI part of the forum about as dumb as Pat addicts. What a shame.

[QUOTE=Albert9989;2662853]So.

I think it is unlimited medical coverage BTW, certainly more than the coverage Ph entry is requesting.

Saying that though I am still likely to take out a standalone travel insurance policy for the $100. The credit card insurance doesn't cover private hire of drivers. I felt the description would exclude my various cover when being driven by Grab and other drivers IE the guy I text to drive me from NAIA to AC.

[QUOTE=Bienenstich;2687486]Sadly PI part of the forum about as dumb as Pat addicts. What a shame.[/QUOTE]What are the odds that having been stung too many times by bees contributes to stupid shit in the Philippines, and, more specifically, this thread?

I have no interest in a Covid debate. An anecdotal statement about someone vaccinated getting covid is nonsensical and confusing, because we've known for a long time that being vaccinated does not keep you from getting it, particularly not with the current variant. My best friend is an ER doctor and has treated literally thousands of covid patients in her hospital, and not one was vaccinated. And yes that's anecdotal evidence but let your logical brain do with that what you will. There are lots of laws I would prefer not to follow. Hell I pay too much in taxes. But I pay them because I would prefer not to be a felon and go to prison, but also there's an ethical element where I realize I need to do it to be a contributing member of society. Plus it builds some roads I drive on. It's pretty clear that masks have little effect when we're talking in a practical sense in a day-to-day general population. My pro mask stance for the unvaccinated is mostly punitive because I like punishing people. But as I said, you do you. Faking a vax card and committing international crimes is between you and your higher power.

I do not subscribe to a higher power, but if I did I would thank it for living in a world filled with loop holes and gray areas, enabling me not to be a follower, but to broaden my search for swallowers.

[QUOTE=FuriousGeorge;2716059]I am anti-mask for the vaccinated, and pro 'restrict the unvaccinated from participating in society'. I guess if you want to commit international felonies that is between you and your god, the universe, Allah, or whatever imaginary deity you worship.[/QUOTE]You sound like a bit of a fascist.

I am pro-choice for vaccines; if you want to get vaccinated against covid then feel free to do so, I won't stop you. But for me, it's #MyBodyMyChoice.

[QUOTE=GDreams;2716294]You still need your Philippines health pass to be done prior to boarding. Not a problem if you are vaccinated. You should check on process if not.[/QUOTE]I will take another look at the regulations a bit nearer to my departure date from Thailand.

[QUOTE=Mdemde;2716025]Apparently a face mask is required on public transport, I have used meter taxis and both the MRT and the BTS since I arrived and never bothered with a face mask and I was never challenged.

[/QUOTE]I though that face-masks were compulsory on the public transport in Bkk, but yesterday afternoon whilst riding on the BTS Skytrain there was an announcement on the video screens that advised passengers that masks are not compulsory though they advise passengers to wear them. Well, I still won't be wearing mine!

Afaik they are still thinking about arresting people for breaking there mask mandates in the Philippines. Inside walking street past the mayors tourist police it is pretty safe but outside the confines of the tourist bubbles in public areas in phils masks are still required. Unless you have "new" information regarding the Philippines. ("All persons shall wear well-fitted face masks and face shields, if necessary, especially in public areas and enclosed spaces. " [URL]https://doh.gov.ph/node/33553[/URL]).

This MRT video a few days ago there are not any unmasked individuals on the MRT no hint of this being non compulsory on public transportation.

Yup, I'm one of those horrible terrible fascists worldwide who require your kid to be vaccinated to attend school. We're ruining society.

I do happen to have the skills to forge stuff like this. Not that it's necessary. All the hoops you jump through to get your QR code, and they don't even scan it, not at any point during the travel process. So yeah it's basically the honor system.

Videography of red light areas is through the roof so the mask is just for personal privacy rather than for the health aspect. They are starting to live stream in bars now too. A few Facebook groups I've been in there have been more than a few live streams from bars. I've considered just cutting massive hole on the under side of the mask and leave the face covered areas.

Bro just go with the Zorro mask and it's a way more badass look.
