My sis-in-law went (lunchtime) and was pleased - but there was no chicken curry. Lunchtimes is 11.30 am to 2.30 pm and is 399 pesos - dinner is 5.00 pm to 9.30 pm (not 100% sure so check if you are going) and is 499 pesos (I assume they provide more choices.

But she noticed that food item started to get cold and run-out but were not replaced - so going early is advisable.

There is a fine of 100 pesos for every 150 grams of uneaten food - but that makes sense. (I don't think there is scope to intentionally pay that fine and walk out with some food, when it would be about 667 pesos per kg).

The cooking method was fine but she noticed some large groups piling food on the hot-plate and then picking bits off - this is actually a serious health risk due to cross contamination of cooked food with uncooked food but obviously members here are aware of that.

Ice creams and cupcakes (and a few other desserts) plus drinks (bottled coke, orange, pineapple and drinks from a dispenser) were unlimited. Service was very good.

She is going back soon for dinner to see the differences.

Definitely seems worth trying.

 

I know you are a smart guy but you have no evidence that the very short-term gain of vaccination (a gain needing boosting after only 6 months) is greater than any long-term effects. We have to hope there are no serious long-term effects but we currently have no evidence.

Anti-vaxxers are usually regarded as those who refuse all vaccines - in the case of Covid there are many people who have had a host of vaccines in their lifetime but are refusing Covid due to the speed with which vaccines were produced and the absence of long term evidence. They should be termed anti-Covid-vaxxers or perhaps 'cautious' and only in years to come will we know if they made the right or wrong choice.

Lending money over here means give.

 

We saw some mountain bikers about 6 of them also saw some trail bikers about 8 of them making a lot of noise. Not sure how far we got but had to hike the rest of the journey.

 

I've just done my 9A visa in the UK and the visa application form needs to be signed by a notary public (Cost £100 +). All documentation has to be sent to the Philippine Embassy as they're not accepting appointments in person. The good news is that I sent mine on the Monday and had it back on the Friday. Sent by Royal Mail special post along with a return envelope addressed and stamped special post. All this is simple to do at the post office - cost about £7 each way. You will also need to send proof of employment (if employed) and pension or income. I got a 1 year multi-entry and I think it cost about £82 (The fee is on the back of the Form 2A)

The link below gives all the details

For arrival in the Philippines there's a whole rigmarole but it just needs co-ordinating from the Philippine end. I'll give you more details if you require in a separate post.

Hope this helps

 

I think you misunderstand the situation.

The Bar Association is going to encourage the Provincial Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) to hold an investigation, and possibly press charges.

I believe, under Filipino Law anyone can press these type of charges. So the Bar Association could press charges if they wanted to.

Although by law they can press charges in this case, the Bar Association has decided that they would not initiate the filing of charges against the APOR.

The Bar Association is encouraging the IATF to press charges because the IATF is responsible for the law that was broken.

 

I am hesitant to react to this, for obvious reasons.
