  1. Too bad PAL is selling off their Airbus A350s. I was hoping to fly it from LAX to MNL or better, directly to CEB-Mactan. The B777s are getting old...

    For years I have booked on EVA because they fly from LAX to TPE (also on the B777) and then they have flights to CEB. Anything to avoid transiting through Manila!!

  2. So it is clear the PH Govt has focused on the Manila Region.

    The total cases in the PH are 1,385,053. The number of cases in the Visayas is 67,339. Approximately 5%.

    Many vaccine sites in Cebu had to close due to lack of supplies. Not just the Vaccines but also the correct needles.

    What can I say... Maybe INGAT??

  3. My good friend living in Dumaguete contracted the Covid Virus. He was in the Hospital for 3 days and then they told him to go home and quarantine.

    He got no help with his Hospital expenses and had to buy his own medicines. Things in the PH are just so bad!! Few people are getting the Vaccine and if they are it is the Chinese Sinovac. Terrible job by Duerte and his Government!!

    My friend is 35 yo and in good shape. He says he has recovered and hopes to return to his work soon. He thinks he got it at the Quick-Shop store he manages.

    Wish more was being done in the Philippines...

    The Thai culture is different not loosing face is very important issue in Thailand , once an actor is going public with an accusation of sexual harassment he might expose himself on public in negative light and it might destroy his career in the entertainment industry he will probably prefer to avoid this and move on , moreover it's very rare in Thailand to see accusations of harassments unless minors are involved and then the authorities taking this matter more seriously.

    Just watch the Series "Call it What You Want". Many of those issues get addressed...

  5. I am finally working my way through "Manner of Death". I am at Episode 13. I have not enjoyed the Series as much as I had expected. The Stories are convoluted and are drawn out too much. I will take my Murder Mysteries in book form!!

    There is a new Drama Series beginning from the Philippines. The Title is "Memories of Forgetting" and the Director is Joselito Altarejos. Well respected. Based on the first two Episodes this is a Heavy Drama. Catch it on Vimeo or GagaOOLala.

    Finally coming from the Philippines is a sequel to "Ben x Jim". It is just "B X J FOREVER" and it seems they have mixed up the former main characters with other new love interests. Viewers are complaining. Catch it on Youtube. Now at Episode 4.

    CHEERS

  6. Yes, I am now hoping travel to the Philippines will be possible about September.

    The Govt is distributing two Vaccines, Sinovac and AstraZeneca. They are being given first to medical workers. My friends there tell me there has been no announcement as to when they might get vaccinated. And they say the number of infections in both Manila and Cebu City are still high. But my other friend in Dumaguete says things are not bad. His two older "Daddies" just opened a Mini-Mart and it is doing well. The staff all wear masks but Customers do not.

    Very sad!!
