After reading this my heart sagged, yes there is so much truth in it. Our government should fix the many problems in our country. Taxi drivers most especially in Manila are rude and would always demand more than what would reflect in their meters. In Cebu City when a jeepney is stopped during red light, street children as young as 7 or 8 years old would fearlessly snatch necklaces, earrings or bags of passengers. Squatter problems in our country should be fixed too. When foreigners step out from their five star hotels the first thing they see are squatters. I feel so ashamed when my visitors from other countries would see squatters along the main roads in my city. Government should fix all these problems and most especially get rid of those Abu Sayyaf, MILF and the rest of rebels.

I am so amazed and overwhelmed with this article. The way you brought the positive and negative side of our country and which is actually facts. I definitely agree 100%. I lived abroad and travelled to a few countries, and I can really see that tourism is one of the best source of income, but youre right, it is very difficult to promote our country due to the things you said. I'm very sad because we have such a beautiful country and its nature but we tend to misuse them as what Marcos said "sa ikauunlad ng bayan, disiplina ang kailangan"... Very well said. And I hope gov't focuses on that first and not corruption. All the best!

It’s more fun in the Philippines? PNL said just about everything; the problems of the country, and the difficulty of enticing tourist to come. However, there is nothing wrong with trying. Personally, I would prefer “MABUHAY PHILIPPINES” as a slogan. At least it has the originality, and mabuhay is a unique name that implies only to the Philippines. Tourism is number one industry of the State of Hawaii for many years. With just about everything there is for tourist attraction is here, however, attracting tourist to come here is not as easy as selling chicken joy. I suggest Mr. Jimenez and associates should come here and take a look what “clicks” about tourism in Hawaii. ALOHA!

It’s more fun in the Philippines: Being an avid sport fishing enthusiast, I can vouch that Philippines could be one of the best country in world to attract tourist who prefer sport fishing. Hawaii is composed of only seven Islands but promotes worldwide sport fishing competition. Charter boats are plentiful due to tourist wants the thrill of fighting big fish mano-a-mano. Philippines having over 7000 Islands and with more variety of fish than any country in the world has the potential of surpassing other countries that thrives on fishing as a tourist attraction. Japanese pays over 40,000 pesos a kilo for a first class Yellow fin Tuna, and we have that South of Mindanao. I think the government should look into this potential tourist attraction. I want to fish there with friends from here.

Tourism is likely to decline 'just a bit' if Chief Justice Corona will not resign before the trial begins & be impeached. Most tourists keep abreast of world news & may scratch PH off their list to visit if news has it tha the SC Justice was impeached - which is a sign of lawlessness. Not advocating that tourism be one of the reason not to impeach. In my view, his resignation is a sign of courageousness & will be praised by many Filipinos as it will surely prevent a "black mark" in the history of the PH. A resignation from the Chief Justice will SURELY add to his dignified legacy. NO WHAT IF, & the Filipino people deserve nothing less.

It will take many more years to totally clean up the slums in Metro Manila. In Japan, they have a huge place for slums in Kamagasaki where squatters live together. If our government can adopt the same system I believe it is a great change instead they are living in one place or another. And once the places are vacated, they can create additional beautification of environment.

MCD concluded "New York has an estimated 50 million tourist a year and New York does not even have a Department of Tourism." HE IS DAMN RIGHT. The state of NY leaves the matter of promoting tourism through private businesses like the tour operators. I guess Department of Tourism in the Philippines did not exist prior to the Marcos era. Promoting the country was by word- of -mouth. Western countries have no idea even where Philippines is. The government had the resources but local tour operators did not. A time must come when tour operators must be left alone to promote tourism in the country.The government however must do its share in improving the infrastructure and ensuring tourist's safety.

It is appropriate for the government to focus on tourism. This is a 60+ million tourist market in Southeast Asia and it is growing at around 8 to 10% annually. Indonesia made $6.3 billion in tourists' receipts; PH made a third of that. In promoting tourism the, country has to deal with the rise in prostitution (the highest paid job among Asian women) and the spread of AIDS. Those are the blowbacks.

MCD without his checking his facts, recklessly stated, "New York has an estimated 50 million tourists a year and NY does not even have a Department of Tourism." DEAD WRONG! On the contrary the city has a very active tourism office, called NYC & Company. This office is the official destination marketing organization for the City of NY. Aside from spearheading city's tourism efforts it is designated as the official convention and visitors bureau. To bolster its efforts the NYC & Co. has 14 offices in coun-tries scattered in Europe, So. America, and Asia.

Tourism in Asia could either be medical, R&R but rarely incites curiosity on the country's culture. For the locals it is more a symbol of elitism. Translated it means having the ability to go to places that only foreign could afford to go. I remember in my younger days the only tourist spots I knew were Baguio, Tagaytay and Nasugbu. Others had fun in Culi2.

This is a brief contrast between Indonesia and Philippines. Indonesia promotes its mystical Orangutans, its Sumatran tigers, its Tarsius which is the world's smallest monkey, its Kamodo dragons, its restless volcanoes and its tropical rain forest. In contrast with the PHilippines, this country has its own Orangutans, tigers, lizards, and fire breathing dragons who are in Congress, in the executive branch, in the courts, in the capitols and mayor's offices. PH does not have rain forests but balding mountains that bring flash floods; no ice cap mountains or pyramids but cold blooded assassins. The fury of a volcano was seen with Sarah Duterte!

No, because they have their own impeachment rules.” LINK Rep. Colmenares is WRONG! He admits that there is rules of impeachment. It provides that rules of court and the due process of law shall apply.

RE: The Corona Condominium.. There is a blogger who wrote that because the Corona Condo was not specifically mentioned in the Impeachment .. The Evidence of the Deed of Sale cannot be used.. Why not? It is not the fault of the Prosecutors.. The Condo was not included because the CJ deliberately excluded it from his SALN.. Because of his deceit you are now precluded from saying that he in fact bought a Condominium way way beyond his income as a Government employee.

Those that are banned include Piccolo, Super Lolo etc. because they do not only cause physical injury but could poison anyone who ingest it. What is missing here is simply LAW enforcement.

To Ass I see it, member of ILAD family of Cebu. The Islas de ladrones judiciary is corrupt from top to bottom. Chief Justice Corona should inhibit himself due to the fact that his appointment is in violation of the constitutional ban. The seven or eight appointees of GMA should also be impeached they exempted the Supreme Court from the constitutional ban. The reason was this provision that the Chief Justice should not be left vacant. Two conflicting provision of the Cory Constitution this conflict needs constitutional amendment. GMA's appointing Corona was to guarantee acquittal from eventual prosecution and all her appointees voting in tandem with Corona. If you cannot see this scheme of GMA then you must have eyes but cannot see.

Our CJ is not God & must not act as one. His partiality on ordering a quickie exit for GMA et al is lutong makao. It was an absurd decision. Why did GMA have 5 bookings on different airlines?

To Ass I See IT (member of the ILAD clan of Cebu) It is not idiotic to inhibit yourself in a case if in your past life not after life you were involved with one of the litigants. In the land of Milk and Honey you hire a lawyer the first thing that they will do is review if you were involved in any case that the lawyer handles in his past life. Not after life. That is part of the Ethics of lawyers here in the land of Milk and Honey aka USA. That is also practiced in the Ilsas de ladrones. Unless you are a virgin no experience yet in court litigation here in the land of Milk and Honey aka US of A or in the native land of Lapulapu (who was the first tourist killer).

Through persuasion and pressure, Corona would capitulate and resign. If ever he wins the impeachment he comes out bloodied and wounded

News headline "probe Justice Carpio's wealth" The probe should be on all Justices why limit it to only Justice Carpio and Chief Justice Corona.

For just 1200 peso you can sleep with a hot woman in the PI. What a steal. And with the promise of a decent life you can sleep with a hot woman for free. HAHAHA, you Filipinos how can you people look at yourselves in the mirror. Being a crook and being dirty is one thing but selling your women. Pimps, each and everyone of you know about the skin trade in the PI and it's OK with all of you. Why? Because it brings you people money. You people would sell your souls if you could.

EDWARD: You asked PNL to bar Kali from the site for namecalling Belly Laugh. Why don’t you post it here in this site what he called Kali FIRST for everyone to know? Isn’t that a fair deal? Proof is what counts. Why does Belly Laugh come to you, are you his mother that he can’t defend himself? I think you are the one who should be barred from this site for your ridiculous negative portrayal of the country. Everyone here knows that you been telling the world that the Philippines is a filthy country. By removing you from this site that would be minus one negative advertisement for “IT’S MORE FUN IN THE PHILIPPINES”. Get it?

Someone said that this editorial tells what I've been saying for years. But the editorial does not go far enough. Do you people know what goes on outside the cities? Your men take girls as young as 12 and give them babies. You don't want to admit it, but it's a huge problem. You people are freaking sick. So don't talk about what a decent people you are.
