GETTING A VISA IN THE PHILIPPINES The SRRV is the “ Special Resident Retiree’s Visa “. This visa will allow you a permanent stay in the Philippines. There is an annual fee in the range of $350 each year, and a deposit that you must put into a bank account or other investment in the Philippines. The amount of the deposit varies, depending on your age, the “flavor” of WHAT SPORTS ARE POPULAR IN THE PHILIPPINES? Basketball is hugely popular in the Philippines, and you can watch basketball on TV at virtually any time you choose. On Cable there is even an entire channel that is devoted to only basketball!

HOW YOUNG IS TOO YOUNG FOR A MAID The parents really have a hard time earning money. Some kids go for a maid at the age of 14 or 15. Some kids would even lie how old they are just to get the job.

MEMBERSHIP SHOPPING PHILIPPINES S&R, like their “cousin stores” Costco and Sam’s Club, is a membership shopping store.

Jeepney: Immediate post-war, and the most common form of transportation in the country today. A Filipino invention, though born from necessity, ingenuity, and thrift. 11.

Another big problem with Philippine tourism is that the country has a bad reputation worldwide. I saw a show the other day on TV where they said that “the Philippines is the kidnap capital of the world.”. I am sorry, but that is pure BS. A lot of countries have a BUYING “PALAYOKS”, “PUGON”, AND “KALANS” IN IGUIG 4 Kalans. A kalan is a native charcoal grill (stove), that is made of clay, and comes in many different sizes.

After your two years stay, you and your wife can leave the Philippines, even for just a one or two day trip to Hong Kong or Thailand, and when you come back into the country you are good for another 2 years! Now, there are a couple things to remember if HOW YOUNG IS TOO YOUNG FOR A MAID The parents really have a hard time earning money. Some kids go for a maid at the age of 14 or 15. Some kids would even lie how old they are just to get the job. A bit scary for the employers though. To be honest we had a young man before when we used to live in GenSan.

ARE FILIPINOS ASIAN? My wife is Filipino. She says she is Asian. Is she correct? There comes a need when accomplishing government forms to state one’s race.

Medical problems are inevitable. At some point everyone has medical problems until they die, then no more medical problems.

Karaoke: Invented in 1975 by Roberto del Rosario. I really thought this was a Japanese invention, despite its’ popularity here, and I was completely wrong. A brilliant guy, he invented many other musical devices, but Karaoke will always be remembered as his greatest triumph (or bane to humankind, depending on your point of view.)
