General Info

So what's the upshot? Did you help someone pass? If so, congratulations. My score is one taker = one passer.

The license is required only for government schools. Non-exam takers and non-passers can still be hired by private institutions.

[QUOTE=RedKilt;1638335]I know some guys are paying in various ways for their friends to attend College / University.

The data for passers for the Licensure Examination for Teachers (L. E. T.) given last August 17,2014 has just been announced. Graduate teachers must pass the L. E. T before they can get a license to teach.

[B]Results:[/B]

25,301 elementary teachers out of 70,786 examinees (35.74%) passed the Elementary exam.

26,767 secondary teachers out of 77,803 examinees (34.40%) passed the Secondary exam.

You can work out that there are large numbers of graduate teachers who cannot teach because they can't pass the LET.

I also have the data regarding which schools were most successful in garnering passers and which ones were abysmally poor. I will share that data on PM if anyone is worried about where their hard-earned is going.

Note this is for TEACHING only, and not for the incredibly over-subscribed Hotel & Restaurant Management programs.[/QUOTE]

[/QUOTE]Purely for information only. I have no vested interest.

I get lots of PMs asking me about college passing rates and about quality of education here and there so this is merely adding to the data.

As Chea says, although private schools may offer quick and easy employment, most graduates of BEED and BSED still choose to undergo the difficult process of passing the LET and so getting hired in public schools, as being employed by the government means better job security, better benefits and around 30% better salary. A teacher who has not passed the LET is designated as an "Unlicensed Teacher" and most teachers are uncomfortable with this label.

[QUOTE=Hutsori;1638232]..... It certainly can be done. Is there really a need? Banning the entry of a foreigner who at some point before tested positive for the clap does little if anything to advance public health when the borders are open to everyone else who aren't tested. It's pointless.....[/QUOTE]Ok, this convince me and you point makes sense. But why do they collect the health information, just for statistics? Do doctors really have the duty of notification for all STD, or just HIV?

[QUOTE=Hutsori;1638210]…… I fear this would cause many foreigners to forego treatment locally and seek it elsewhere……. [/QUOTE]Well, I had a problem once and I did not go to doctor. I tried self medication and as most STD in Philippines are chlamydia, I just took Zitromax and it worked. But I would rather know a doctor in AC who won't report. Does anybody know one in AC?

Countries that are aid recipients, say from the UN or WHO or foreign governments, find that providing such info may further their application's chance to be awarded funds, and such info may even be required by donors.

Often with chlamydia a person may have gonorrhea too, and this STI can be asymptomatic. Moreover some STI's have become resistant to the primary medicine so another, more closely held one must be used. (Oh Christ, I hope I haven't re-ignited the boring safe-sex debate. There is the safe-sex thread - go there.) I've been to hospitals and clinics and when paying cash I've never been asked for an ID except when picking up test results from the lab (in a large hospital). You could give an assumed name, get tested, and then return to the doctor's office rather than the lab, and the nurse will get the lab results on your behalf. Just an idea. I think your concerns are overwrought; there's no STI squad rounding up the infected and processing them for deportation, though if a foreigner tested positive for HIV or Hep C I think the gov't may, and ought to, act.

Its a third world country. They lots of departments & programs (Start reading about HAMIS) but of course shortage of funds hobbles progress / effectiveness.

You will be able to see their signs. STD Testing. Some offer treatment. Not sure if they do reporting. You can ask them.

Also Dr. Willie Lee in Malabanis behind Petron gas station is a good bet 0917 791 1588.

It should be noted that the preposition "behind" was used in his report. If the Petron station was used to be a landmark, and I believe it was, it's actually a very informative post. I don't know anything about Dr. Willie's competence. He may in fact do fine body work.

I just had a week with the lovely Miss A.

My shape and size exactly. Tall and skinny. Compared with a broom handle, she would make the broom handle look positively chubby.

Earlier in the week, she was introduced to the taste of sperm, and she is now a committed swallower.

Later in the week, she discovered that she is really turned on when she is fucked while having a 7" vibrator inserted into her skinny ass.

Real progress towards nirvana.

I was tempted to go in and ask if they really do insure "willy's", but I doubted that I would've been able to keep a straight face, LOL.
