can u get me here?Lara La Paz, Tarlac
I agree with Lorna, Try to get your lady friend to meet you at the airport. I was just over in the Phil a few months ago,,I was my first time back since 1987.I took a bus from Angeles City to Paniqui, Tarlac, Although when I was there before I had taken busses many times,
I had forgotten how how confusing the bus terminals there could be. I was lucky I was traveling with a good friend so there was no problem,,but I was thinking all the time,,what would I do if I were by myself.
Bus stations in the Phil are like bus stations here as the seem to have some strange characters that hang around them, so be careful,,but that is not to say that everyone there is after your money,,there are many people traveling that will be glad to help you. Look for families that are traveling together, a Man his wife and children,,and ask the Man if he can help you find the correct bus,, most will be happy to help.
That would be I think the biggest problem at the Phil bus station is finding the right bus going to where you want to go,,there are so many comming and going,,it can be quite confusing. So as Lorna said,,try to get your Lady Friend to meet you at the airport, or have her send someone there to meet you.

The CHURCH may consider you still married, but the LAW does not.
Again, read article 26 of the family code;
Where a marriage between a Filipino citizen and a foreigner is validly
celebrated and a divorce is thereafter validly obtained abroad by the
alien spouse capacitating him or her to remarry, the Filipino spouse
shall have capacity to remarry under Philippine law. (As amended by
Executive Order 227)

This is the LAW!

Your onward ticket can be to anywhere just as long that it shows that
you have a ticket out of the Philippines. The length of time out of
the Philippines does not matter. If you plan on coming back you can
catch a plane to HongKong and get on the next plane back to the
Philippines all in the same day if you want to.
If your going to the Philippines and plan on staying for more than
your 21 day visa and plan on staying for a long time you will still
need to show a onward ticket to somewhere even if you don’t use it.
Some people just buy a ticket to HongKong leaving from the
Philippines and never use it.
Don’t do what I did one time because I didn’t know, I bought a round
trip ticket from the USA and never used the return ticket. That was a
big bunch of money lost maybe around 700 dollrs at that time.
Some people will buy a onward ticket going by ship over the water to
somewhere and never use it.
It will cost more but at times you can buy a refundable airline
ticket for your return flight and cash it in later after you get
there.

Dean, that will depend on who petitions for the divorced. If the
Filipino petitions for the divorce, the RP will not recognize it, BUT,
if the foriegner is the petitionewr, the RP does recognize it and the
Filipino is free to remarry.
From Article 26;
Where a marriage between a Filipino citizen and a foreigner is validly
celebrated and a divorce is thereafter validly obtained abroad by the
alien spouse capacitating him or her to remarry, the Filipino spouse
shall have capacity to remarry under Philippine law. (As amended by

Dean,
Sorry, but you’re wrong. The current law has been in effect since July 6,
1987.

IF such a scenario occurred, the Consulate was wrong. The case could have
been appealed to the Philippine Embassy in Washington DC. You need only
reference the pertinent sections of the Family Code, specifically Executive
No. 209, "The Family Code of the Philippines", Title 1, Chapter 1:
"Art. 26. All marriages solemnized outside the Philippines, in accordance
with the laws in force in the country where they were solemnized, and valid
there as such, shall also be valid in this country, except those prohibited
under Articles 35 (1), (4), (5) and (6), 3637 and 38. (17a)
"Where a marriage between a Filipino citizen and a foreigner is validly
celebrated and a divorce is thereafter validly obtained abroad by the alien
spouse capacitating him or her to remarry, the Filipino spouse shall have
capacity to remarry under Philippine law. (As amended by Executive Order
227)"

[LinP3] Hot Water Heaters
QOUTE: "supply on demand system"
That could mean two different systems. 1- hot water stored in a tank
and ready to be used. 2- hot water made at the point of useage.
Both systems are available, but the storage system is more costly to
have hot water and the water in the whole house piping will cool
meaning, more wasted water to get too the hot water and the system
is a lot more costly to install. The storage system type cost to
maintain the temp. you set in the tank also.
Having units where hot water at point of use means less wasted water
and only cost when the water is turned on and you still control the
heat, from cold though the warms to very hot. Plus only one water
pipe is needed and you have the choice of turning the unit on or not.
The whole house system if it went down, there’s no hot water
anywhere in the house until it’s fixed. That system is used in the
USA also.
The point of useage systems, (hot water on demand), have been used
in the EU for many decades. The 1st unit I install in a Peru jungle
camp back in the 80’s, (shipped in), was a shower head you wired in
and the temp. contol was the water flow. Now, you can control the
heater in the unit plus water flow.

Big Mac in Philippines
How much is a BigMac where you are at? I haven’t been to Micky Ds
in a about a month but then they were 92pisos which is only $2.30
at 40p per $. As far as real estate I was recently offered 1 heactare
undeveloped beach front for $6250, would cost me close to a million
$ in US. so we’ve got aways to go before the average real estate
prices in PI catch up to the US. I admit that in some of the urban
areas real estate prices have rapidly gained on US prices.
