President appoints new chief BI Manila - President Benigno Aquino III has the lawyer Gilberto Repizo named the new Bureau of Immigration (BI) Commissioner.Repizo replaces Fred victory Mison, who took over in December last year the post of chief from BI. MIB 12/08/2014 - 7:40
Wow that's a turn up for the books, there have been many complaints since he took over last December. Let's see if anything improves
Another chief = another vision. Another vision = more rule changes. Don't expect anything to settle down anytime soon. Hopefully the changes that are coming use a bit more common sense.
Sorry to disappoint you, but I don't think those two words "common sense" are in the Filipino dictionary..........:D
Well guys and gals, I came across the fuller version of this and it tells a different Story and can only mean more Agro in that Mison is not going but is to have an Associate Assistant, Another String to the egotistical bow. BI WELCOMES NEW ASSOCIATE COMMISSIONER Manila, Philippines---President Aquino has appointed Atty. Gilberto U. Repizo as the new associate commissioner of the Bureau of Immigration. Repizo filled in the position vacated by then Associate Commissioner Siegfred B. Mison who was appointed as commissioner in December last year. “We welcome Assoc. Comm. Repizo to our BI family. The Board of Commissioners and the rest of our personnel look forward to working with him in the coming days”, said Mison. In an interview with the BI media team, Repizo said that he is “happy to be back and see former colleagues” at his home at the BI. He served as a technical assistant to then Associate Commissioner Jose Lopez from 1996 to 1998. Asked about his immediate plans for the BI, Repizo said that he will discuss any policy initiation that he has in mind with the Board of Commissioners to come up with a collective policy. “I am guided by what the Secretary of Justice De Lima told me when I took my oath. She said, ‘you have barely 2 years in office, do the right thing’. I think if I follow that directive I’ll never get lost. Along the way, I can contribute my inputs to the good program of the Commissioner”, Repizo said. Odd how things appear so differently on Different Web sites, This came from FB but apparently it is not all that new. A source tells me it is from last December but how true that is I don't know. Never rains but it Pours What! JP
Dear Commissioner Repizo: I would like to request a "correction refund" for the PHP 240,000 I had to pay to obtain a U.S. Permanent Quota Visa 5 years ago when my work visa expired. My ex-wife also was charged the same and you can send me her refund, given the funds came from our divorce (my money too). As an attorney, I am sure you are honorable and will want to correct the f'n corruption the commissioner's office has had in the past. Upon receiving the full refund, we can then discuss a refund for the trips I had to make to the Manila and Cebu BoI Offices because your Dumaguete office cannot handle simple requirements. Please remit to the Robertson Dumaguete LBC Office. PM me when you are ready to send. Respectfully, Pato (if you agree to this) Bite me, Pato (if you are the same as your predecessors)
OK! OK! So who ratted on me, friends turned their back on me and the wife is explaining she doesn't know where I am Ha! Ha! Don't laugh to loud, it could happen this way, Stranger things have.o_O:(
Jack, I really like the tank top you are wearing, but your shorts are a little tight. Good picture though. lol
