Diosdado macapagal international airport..

Worst airport!
The immigration officers all suck! They are disrespectful to their fellow kababayan and would intimidate and humiliate you with so much questions as if you are a criminal when all you just wanted is to travel and enjoy life. I've never experienced that in any immigration even in abroad. just only in Clark! They are all acting as if their airport is high-class.
The saddest part is, because you have been interrogated and held a long time, the airplane leaves you! As if people are just raking money from the streets. Their hard-earned travel cost would just come to * , re-book a ticket 8-10 times the cost of your original plane ticket.
Come on DMIA! You make the Philippines worse. You're not even worth a single centavo of the big taxes i pay in BIR for your salary.
Worst ever! There's more irritation in the Philippines! And you are one of them!

re: CLARK-HK-DUBAI
dapat kinuha mo name ng IO para maireklamo mo.
re: DMIA
Then do not be a part of the problem. alalahanin natin kung magbabayad ka sa ganyan, may pananagutan kadin sa batas. minsan kasi, di naman nanghihingi, eh may nagaalok pa. it's a two way street.

re: CLARK-HK-DUBAI
FYI po.. It is legal for some destination countries to change your visa status from Tourist - Working.
DMIA
sa lahat ng airport ng pinas. and DMIA ang pinakamadali para saming mag-anak. so far, ang babait ng mga immigration officers. at ang babata pa. maayos sila dun. ilang beses nadin kaming gumagamit ng DMIA.

Reply to @Herboy: madami talagang kagaguhan sa gobyerno. kaya lang madami ding mamamayang gago at manloloko. bago tayo humusga ng mga at at mag require na mag-isip isip, isipin din natin ang libu-libong namamatay abroad dahil sa pagmamalupit ng mga dayuhan. sisisihin ang immigration kung di makaalis. pero sisisihin ang and immigration kung may namatay na victim ng illegal recruitment. para sa mga taong mabababaw ang panananaw, walang tamang ginawa ang gobyerno. ikaw ano ginawa mo para makatulong sa kapwa?
re: CLARK-HK-DUBAI
NABASA KO FROM A BLOG, SHARE KO DIN:
Mga minamahal kong kababayan, ako ay isang kawani ng gobyerno. Ang iyong gobyerno. Ang gobyerno mo na pinagbabayaran ng buwis. Ang iyong gobyerno na nagbibigay sa inyo ng serbisyo at panunungkulan.
Marami talagang tao sa loob ng iyong gobyerno ang mga tiwali. Marami sa mga kasamahan namin ay talagang walang kwenta, at dapat na nakakulong. Katulad lang ng mga pulitiko na diumanoy nagtatamasa ng iligal na yaman mula sa pork barrel ni aling Janet Napoles. Sa isang banda din naman, parang nasabi un ni Atty. Lorna Kapunan na ginagawang escape goat lamang si Ginang Napoles ng mga tunay na maysala.
Ngayon, nang dahil sa kalokohan ng iilan o sabihin na nating, dahil sa kalokohan ng marami, nadadamay na ang pangkalahatang institusyon ng pamahalaan. Ang tingin naman tuloy ng marami, lahat ng nasa gobyerno korap, tiwali, magnanakaw. Tuloy, ang tingin din ng iba, ang lahat ng mga nasa gobyerno walang kwenta, pabaya, at abusado.
Nasasaktan ako. Nanliliit ang budhi ko. Naiiyak ako sa tuwing nadidinig ko mismo ang mga panlalait ng mga tao at media at social media sa mga kawani ng gobyerno. Para sa akin kasi, ako mismo ay ang gobyerno. Kung ano ako, malaking parte dito and katotohanang nagsisilbi ako sa bayan biling isang taong gobyerno. Parang nitutusok ng karayom ang puso ko sa tuwing nadidinig ko na may isang kawani ng gobyerno ang nahuling nagnanakaw sa kaban ng bayan. Naawa ako sa Pilipinas sa tuwing may napapabalita na may isang kawani ng gobyerno ang napatunayang nagkasala. Nasasaktan ako bilang isang tapat na empleyado. Bilang isang tapat mong kawani.
Do not judge us too harshly. Please be fair. Please exercise restraint sa tuwing kayo ay mambabatikos sa amin. Sa loob ng mga kontrobersiya na kumakalat, tanungin din muna nyo ang sarili nyo, alam ba ninyo ang buong katotohanan? o nagpapadala lang kayo sa propaganda ng ibang taong gustong gamitin ang inyong pagiging mamamayan? Natatanung nyo din ba ang sarili ninyo kung ano ginagawa mo para sa bayan bilang isang mamamayan?
Bilang isang mamamayan, ginagawa nyo din ba ang dapat? Ibinibigay mo ba ang nararapat? O ngawa lang din kayo ng ngawa na parang taong walang pagkukusa? Kung magaapply halimbawa ng isang Police Clearance, sasabihin agad na makupad ang serbisyo pero late ka namang dumating kaya madami ng tao. Nagbabayad nga kayo ng buwis pero tamang buwis ba? Saktong sakto lang ang buwis ninyo para sa mga serbisyo. Ang buwis ninyo sakyo lang para sa sampung Pulis na nka-duty. Sakto lang sa isang Guro sa isang classroom. Sakto lang para sa isang MMDA enforcer sa kanto ng East Ave. at EDSA.
Kung mag-aapply ng titulo ng lupa, magagalit na agad kung papabalikin kinabukasan eh hindi ka padin naman kumuha ng Certificate Authorizing Registration galing BIR! Konting kibot lang ngangawa ka na pero wala kang ginagawa para malaman ang lahat ng nakapaligid na dahilan. Nagbabayad ka nga ba ng tamang buwis? Isa kang Abogado or Doktor, nagbabayad ka nga ba ng tamang buwis? Nagii-issue ka ba ng resibo sa mga kliyente mo? Tapos kung makareklamo ka naninigaw ka pa dahil Abogado ka at Doktor ka!
May nabasa ako sa Facebook at pinagpipyestahan. Sinira DAW ng isang immigration officer ang kanyang passport! Pordyos! Sa libu-libong dumadaan sa airport, ito lang ang katangi-tanging nagaakusa na sinira diumano ang passport nya. Natanong kaya nya sa sarili nya kung bakit sa dinami-dami ng tao na dumadaan sa airport eh sya pa ang pinagdiskitahan? Siguro dahil espesyal sya. Porque naghiwalay un cover ng passport at mga pages nito ay kasalanan na agad ng immigration officer? HINDI po. Hindi po dapat agad nag-aakusa ng ganun kahit na mamamayan ka ng bayan ko. HINDI ka dapat naninisi ng tao na posible namang walang kasalanan sa nangyari. EH wala ka ngang katunayan na ginawa ng immigration officer un bukod sa word mo. At magiiskandalo ka pa. Pwede bang NASIRA lang, hindi SINIRA? Kung sakali may kagagawan un taong inaakusahan mo, pwede bang di sinasadya? Natanong mo na ba kung sinong kang tao na sisirain ang passport? Tapos you got hysterical agad? Ngawa ka ba ng ngawa? Tapos ang daming taong nagpaloko sayo. Maraming nasisira sa maling akala. Ang DFA na mismo ang nagsabi, may mga passport talaga na sirain. Kaya wag mo agad isisi sa iba ang pagkasira ng passport. At kayo namang share ng share ng pagnga-ngawa ng taong ito, wag muna kayo magpauto. Bago mangialam, alamin nyo muna. Kung poor quality ang passport, walang may kasalanan. Kusa talaga yang masisira.
Andyan din ung madalas magreklamo na kinokotongan ng Pulis. Eh ikaw kaya ang unang nag-alok ng pera! Di na nga nanhihingi ng pera pinipilit mo pa db? O? Diba nga pag-nahuhuli ka sa daan namimilit ka pa at kusang nag-aalok? O? Malaki din ang ginagampanan mo sa sirkulo ng korapsyon at katiwalian sa pamahalaan. Kasi ikaw mismo bilang isang mamamayan, active participant! Equally guilty! Dapat ka din sisihin.
Hindi lahat ng kawani ng gobyerno korap. Nandyan ang nanay ko na mamatay-matay sa pag-aasikaso sa mga may sakit sa government hospital bilang underpaid na doktor. Nadyan din ang tatay ko na mamatay-matay makipag-barilan sa mga kriminal na gustong manakit sayo. Tang-ina, buwis buhay ang ginagawa namin para lang mapanatili kahit man lang semblance of order sa bayan natin. Bilang isang empleyado ng gobyerno, Pilipino din ako. Ang kaibahan ko lang sa karamihan ay hindi ako ngawa ng ngawa. Ako ay may pagkukusa. Inaalam ko muna ang katotohanan bago mang-akusa ng kapwa. Pinili kong maglingkod sa bayan sa halip na mangibang bayan. At ang dami sa ating, makapangibang bayan lang ang taas-taas na ng tingin sa sarili.
Ako ay isang tapat na kawani ng gobyerno. Gising ako sa tuwing tulog ka para kinabukasan may bayan ka pang makikita. Wag nyo kaming lalahatin. Nakaka-hurt. Wag mong isusumbat sakin ang buwis na ibinabayad mo, kasi, di ka nga tapat magbayad ng buwis. Ang kakarampot kong sweldo, pinagpapaguran ko. Nakapag-diffuse ka na ba ng bomba sa ilalim ng bus sa EDSA? Ako OO. Pero di mo alam un. Wag nyo kaming lalahatin. Hinay-hinay sa paratang. Nakaka-hurt.
PLEASE SHARE.
re: DMIA
Hi.. it depends on your answer to IOs. If you will tell them that you'll gonna visit your friend/relative in your destination, then they will ask for the invitation letter.
Yes, you need travel docs if you want to pass in the immigration. That's the basic thing I think.
re: clark, philippines
Hi! Thailand is one of the countries where they don't require visas for tourists. That's why IOs are naturally suspicious.
QUeSTIONS:
1. Who are you travelling with?
2. Are you working?What is your job/profession?
3. If you're not working, where did you get the money?
clark, philippines

re: female immigration officer
Nako, bastos talaga yang mga IO. Sabihan ba naman ang pamilya ko na: "Anong akala nyo sa sarili nyo? Hindi naman kayo mayaman". So ibig sabihin ba pag pupunta g airport e kelangang may sign board na 'Mayaman Ako'?
re: First time at clark
Hello I'm just curious about your experience at Clark international airport going to Hong Kong..how was it? Kasi I'm planning to bring my whole family sa Hong Kong and I already bought their plane Tickets round trip. They got their passports all set and ready now as well. I'm just curious what did the customs asked you and our family during your departure from Clark to HK, kasi me I'm traveling with 6 people and I am the one shouldering all the expenses while in Hong Kong. Hopefully you can give me a piece of advice and tips about other documents etc. I'd really appreciate it! Thanks in advance...

At departure loung 3/17/2013
A complaint at Clark Int'l Airpoton on the man white hair!he's not wearing any name tag, one whi is assigned at this very hour 5 am of march 17,2011, treated us unkindly. We were caught with Swiss knife, it was confiscated. We asked the Air Asia OIC if we could get it back and have it checkend in. Everyone in the departure screening said it was okay to checked in the Swiss knife, but this man answered rudely, "next time...bla..bla...bla" we already apologized. He had so many comments. We asked for what to do next after we cleared the Swiss knife, he answered "bumalik kayo sa immigration, tignan natin kung makabalik kayo" ( go to immigration and let us see if you can pass) , he answered with a threatening voice. I hope he will be givel any sanction.

re: DMIA
this is encouraging... my flight is in a couple of days and im so nervous... well youre right if you have all complete docs theres nothing to worry about! Thanks!
re: DMIA
For all you people out there worried about the immigration officials at Clark,you need to get your girl to go to Manila and obtain a CFO, it costs 400 peso and takes about 2 hours to get, once she has that also go to City Hall offices near Marquee Mall and get an afidavit signed there saying younwill take care of her on your trip 500 peso, also a hotel voucher, 10000 peso pocket money, if you get all these requirements then she will pass through no problems, my gf had new passport and never travelled before, we got all these documents together and when at Clark they see this and she pass through no problems, even the miserable bastos guy managed a smile, so do you homework and get proper documents dont expect to travel with out the proper paperwork because it will not happen i can tell you that for sure.
Invitation Letters
🔗 Sun, 29 Dec 2013
— Anonymous Flyer at Clark International Airport / Clark Air Base, Philippines
I have helped many Filipinas come to Hong Kong - however the old system of the passenger carrying an invitiation letter from the person in Hong Kong is not always enough for the immigration authorities in either CRK or MNL.
Sometimes your lucky and can pass through Philippine Immigration with no questions, thats half the problem - you still then need to justify to HKG immigration the intent of your stay - Technically your allowed 14day stay in HKG,however this is were the immigration officier may consider the purpose of your stay and whether or not you can finacially support yourself, and finally he needs to be satisfied that you will return back home.
What Philippines Immigration officiers are looking for is the Invitation letter that has been "Notarized by the Philippine Consulate" in the country where the sponcer or friend is living.
Take a look at the Phiipphine consulate website for Hong Kong ://---.philcongen-hk.com/notarials/main.htm
This is th typical form the consulate requires to be completed and notorised
