Corruption in the phils vs fraud in OZ
For all of the punters who go on about corruption in the Phils, maybe this news clip from Australia may provide some perspective.
And remember the Eddie Obeid / McNamara scam for a AUD178 million coal mining lease.
The Phils may be more sorrupt, but Australians go for bigger money.
Of course, in my opinion, the most corrupt organisation in the world is the US congress, where a bunch of lobbyists, with deep pockets, can make law in any way that they want. Just buy enough votes of congressmen and senators.
"Well-educated men in their 30's from middle management are the most likely perpetrators of internal fraud, a survey of Australian firms shows.
PricewaterhouseCoopers' 2014 Global Economic Crime Survey found Australian organisations reported more crime than its global counterparts.
However, this was probably because Australia took the matter more seriously rather than a sign it has more corporate crime, the survey's authors say.
More than half of the 1,000 firms that took part in the biennial survey reported some form of internal or external crime, including cyber attacks and theft, in the past two years compared to 47 per cent two years ago.
Internal fraudsters were increasingly from middle management - 65 per cent in 2014, compared to 45 per cent in 2012 - and aged between 31 and 40.
They were also more qualified, with nearly a third having university degrees (up 10 per cent) and were primarily men (57 per cent).
However the number of female fraudsters is also on the rise, increasing from 25 per cent to 39 per cent.
Asset and cash theft were the biggest offences, followed by cybercrime, procurement fraud, accounting fraud, and bribery and corruption.
One in 10 organisations lost more than $1 million from cybercrime in the past two years while one third reported procurement fraud.
Cybercrime is a bigger problem for banks while procurement fraud is more common in the construction, mining and energy industries, PwC Partner and Forensic Services leader Malcolm Shackell says.
Procurement fraudsters can be an employee, business owner, board member, an official or vendor involved in the purchase or sale of services, goods or assets between organisations or individuals.
"We see this type of fraud in contracting, inappropriate supplier relationships and the supply and disposal of goods and assets; anywhere the money is flowing, Mr Shackell told AAP.
"It's supplier fraud really. We see false invoicing, where the company is false or they're invoicing for services they didn't supply, and, overcharges where a supplier inflates invoices.
"We particularly see that in mining and construction. ".
Other fraud, including payroll fraud, represents 13 per cent of crime experienced by Australian organisations".

Well put and needs to be repeated
[QUOTE=Sammon;1575828]I have done lots of DIA girls. In fact nowadays I have only been with DIA girls.
1. Send messages to them a month before you actually go. These girls are looking for instant meeting and of course instant gratification.
2. Of those who reply state your intentions without being explicit. Say something like she looks good and you would like to meet her.
3. Never say you are only looking for sex. Once you meet and they like you sex comes naturally to these girls. If you are good in sex they love to be with you irrespective of what your only intentions are.
4. No need to discuss money and I never send money before meeting. If they talk money all the time I stop talking to them.
5. Establish yahoo messenger or Skype relation so that you can see them on cam and chat. Pictures do lie. Once I had a 35 year old posing as 19 year old with her old pic.
6. I always meet them in my room. I have no time to meet them outside and romance them. My intention is only sex. If she is good company and sex I tend to keep her for a few days.
7. Always compensate for their time and effort. Never take advantage of their poverty and eagerness as you can do whatever you please. If a naive girl says no to sex it means NO.
Good Luck![/QUOTE]Please all Mongers and especially newbies. Note # 7 and do not take unfair advantage of them. Some of them are tragically stupid and desperate beyond your comprehension, I mean you will literally be dumbfounded with what you may encounter and experience.
I have chatted with 1500 to 1800 women over the years and they range from 10 that are borderline "full on retards" to my intellectual equal in a perfect body and then of course there are the scammers, hideous scammers, (I sort of punish this group not physically of course).
Personally I avoid the truly nieve and ignorant and it takes about 90 seconds of chatting to determine those but if they come and even if you don't play 500 pesos typically covers there costs plus! At a minimum.
Please be a good man with naughty intentions and never hurt them!
Thanks PP.
There can only be one winner
For any monger who thinks being rude etc to an immigration official even if they 'verbally abuse" you or make what you think are snide remarks, read this.

Now the guy deserved a reprimand for sure but who knows what was said to him.
I hear friends 'complaining' that when they arrive in Cebu from an international flight that they get asked a lot more questions of why they are coming to the Philippines or notice is made of the number of trips to the country. Responses such as "mind your own business" "to spend loads of cash to help the local economy" or worse are generally not helpful.
I always say "its more fun in the Philippines" - with a smile. As I have had the same inane stupid questions asked of me a few times in Cebu.
Keep cool even when they are not being that.
Example, recently a friend's lady was offloaded going to Singapore (she was flying with him, business class on Singapore Airlines) for very spurious reasons. Rather than get annoyed (which he was trust me) as the reasons were so bizarre it was stupidity and mere jealousy / spitefulness of the officer involved, he smiled and asked to have all his bags offloaded as well, asked the same immigration officer to let him re enter the country. She was shocked but had to comply.
This took time for immigration and the airline, caused a huge delay, no one was happy but he remained cool despite internally wanting to strangle someone / something.
So guys, be calm.
Best answer to the question "Are you only interested in sex?"
I applaud your moral and ethical position, but me thinks you're taking it a bit too far. It's already a common and well deserved stereotype that guys want sex. Yes we do! A gal who asks that question directly is probably testing you or teasing you. I agree with my old nemesis AV that a joke might be in order, but I also disagree with him that you should write her off. Sounds like a gal with a head on her shoulders, so playing along might be fun.
What is the best answer? HellifIknow.
1 I'm a guy. 1 a I like sex. How about you? 1 b Sometimes.
2 I'm also interested in xxx (changing the subject. Sounds lame, I know).
3 Wow, are you a mind reader?
I'm sure some of you guys can come up with some better replies.

Many ladies on DIA don't want, just sex, they want a new friend (and more) so when a really nice sincere hottie ask the question. Are you only interested in sex?
Who's going to tell the truth? I don't think most mongers would tell the truth when their goal is to fuck the little beauty. I can't mislead anyone for my own gratification so I tend to stick w / FLs and BGs.
