Immigration Officers, Clark, Philippines
Immigration officers in Clark, Philippines are very stiff, that we are known to be friendly people but immigration officers are unlikely to be friendly. Even some are racists, I understand their line 0f job is to make sure that they may let the right people comes in and out of the country but excellent customer service should as well be exhibited with the welcoming attitude even though there will be confrontational circumstances. Filipinos are known to be respectful but not these immigration officers. Apparently, I've been on and off to different airports and most immigration officers are really friendly and helpful.

re: complain
yes what u all have said are true. my niece was interrogated by one of the officer and denied going to singapore without any explanation. when the officer ask her if she have money to bring and my niece said yes 20k then the officer said he won't let her go. maybe he want to have some share of my niece show money and when my niece ask y she cannot go he didn't explain anything. my niece is innocent that's why it didn't click to her mind that maybe the officer need lagay. (bribe)
My Current "Home base"
This former USAF installation is now run by a hybrid government-commercial development corporation. in addition to hosting many ground-based industries, casinos, hotels and recreatioal facilities it is being built up as a major international airport, slated to be linked to Manila via high-speed commuter rail and US-standard expressways ala the current Hong Kong airport.
If you zoom in just to the east of the approach end of runway 02R you'll see the separate runway and hangar facilities of Omni Aviation a busy flight school and FBO situated in the former home of the Clark AB Aero Club ... and an excellent place to base if you're in the Philippines. best of both worlds ... fly out of a major international airport but with your own runway and facilities.

Have you reported your concern to the Bureau of Immigration's main office in Intramuros, Manila? If not, try to report the incident to the Office of the Commissioner. Those Immigration Officers (IO's) should be stopped from doing the same thing to other travellers originating from Clark Airport. It gives a very negative image of our country and our people. You can access the site of Bureau of Immigration - Philippines to air your concern. Try A/Comm. Roy Almoro.
