re: Notorious BI Clark Officers
This is still happening. 01 May my girl friend of 2 years was not allowed to leave the country when we attempted to go on Holiday to Hong Kong for 3 days. The decision by the immirgration officer wasn't given until 5 mins before the plane was scheduled to take off. When she told the officer that here job was as a Waitress, the officer accused her of being a prositute. Hmmm....I wonder if I would have offered a VIP fee, would she have been allow to go. Something is Rotten at DMIA.
Worried.
I am planning to travel at the end of this month. I'll be attending my cousin's important event in her life. But I'm so worried about everything I've read here. I have the important documents from my cousin but still, I'm very much worried. :(
DMIA
Wala po mangyayari sa mga complains natin kung walang magpiprint at magsesend ng mga ito sa kaukulang tao sa clark. Marami po masisearch online puwede masulatan na tao sa airport sa clark at kailangan niyo isulat complains niyo at iypost sa kanila. Marami napo silang complains at kung isama niyo sa inyo in proper letters makakatulong masugpo sila.
Frequent flyer po ako sa maraming bansa, UK, Europe, USA, Asia and Middle East. Sa Clark lang po ako nakatagpo ng bastos na Immigration officer. Small time small mind po kasi airport. Papunta ako Bangkok, unang 3 seconds pa lang pagharap ko sa Immigration officer, di pa niya ako tinitingnan, ang tanong niya "saan ka pupunta? Pupuntahan mo kabit mo?'. I looked straight back at him maybe quite challenging because of my shock and disbelief. I think he expected me to joke and just take it. Hindi naman po ako bastos magdamit. Di naman makapal magmake-up. Even if I was, no Immigration officer is allowed to be rude and unprofessional sa remark na ganoon. Hindi ko naman masisi sarili ko, this is how this person was brought up, lacking of decorum and respect sa kapwa tao. I can't even begin to think how he landed his job. I'm sure kumpa-kumpare. He was maybe 50ish. Very arrogant. Dahil Hindi ako natuwa sa very inappropriate unprofessional remark niya, he sent me back to get my return ticket printed. I was showing him my return ticket on my blackberry. Kapag nakakaintindi po Immigration Officer, they know how to look at a real eticket kahit nasa email. It has reference numbers and confirmation. Sa Manila airport, at overseas po in our modern times, madalas po dinidiscourage na pagpiprint ng eticket to be earth friendly. Avoid unnecessary printing--pero Sizemore I don't expect naman this modern thinking na gumagana na sa airport so anyway, I went back out sa airport. Some one hour looking for a printer siguro while im trying to control my anger sa remark ng BI na ito. Wala namang shops doon. Finally I found a friend who happens to work as a Security Guard with Cebu Pacific. Pinagprint niya ako sa office. I printed it, pagbalik ko, wala na ang arroganteng lalaking immigration, tapos di na ako tinanong ng return ticket nitong bagong naka duty. So I managed to fly out. Di na ako sumakay sa Clark from there on.
Touris visa po, sa Manila airport in my 10 years of flying as tourist to so many places, di kailangan at di hinihingi ang Invitation letter from whoever your visiting dahil Tourist po kayo--lalo kung pupunta lamang ng 3 to 7 days or similar sa Hongkong, Thailand, or similar Asian countries. Kailangan lamang po, return ticket, tax paid, passport valid 6 months at ang return ticket. Ako po, kahit ang hotel where I stay in hindi na tinatanong o hinihingan ng print. Pero iyready niyo po. Whether OFW kayo o hindi, kapag Tourist lamang sa Bangkok halimbawa, wala po ito relasyon sa sa mga OFW documents niyo. If you don't need to mention that, Kung kayo ay papasyal lamang, then no need to mention or show any of those OFW related documents dahil lalo lamang nakakalito. Hindi po ito pagtatago danil your going out as a tourist.
Sa mga talagang tourist lamang po, mga girlfriend po ng Foreign Nationals, yun lamang din po kailangan niyo. Return ticket, hotel booking, passport, wala po visa kung Asian countries lamang. Ni hindi naman po dapat kayo hingan o kailangan magpakita ng pera. Wala naman po kinaiba sa turistang pinoy na walang bf o asawang puti, pag tourist po, tourist pare-pareho at iisa requirements.
Problema lamang po, ang kamangmangan at pagkatakaw sa power ng mga BI sa Clark. Sa NAIA na lamang po kayo, kanit na marami ding anomalies, mas monitored naman kaysa sa Clark.
Isulat po niyo mga Complains niyo, Tagalog mas mainam. Siguraduhing ilagay petsa noong nangyari, ilista mga dokumentus na inilabas, at pangyayari at pangalan ng BI. Iwasan po magsulat ng emotional para iyaccept as objective ang complain ninyo kung kayo ay susulat ng proper complain. Punuin lamang po ng facts (petsa, pangalan ng tao, saan papunta, ano ang nangyari at ano ang nasabi, magkano ang nagastos).

V- Hire @ Taxi Fares
Can the government regulate the fares of V-Hire vans from Bacolod City to the airport ( and vice versa). The current fares in going to the airport via V-hire vans from SM terminal is P100.00 pesos which has the distance of only around 22 kilometers. While going to the city from the airport is P150 pesos which is really to much!!! Those taxi drivers also waiting outside the arrival area demanded extremely high fares,they don't to use the meter on their taxi! So sad that these kind of people creates a bad impression in your airport at saka ang babastos pa ng mga drivers!!! I just don't like the way they transact business with the passengers.
I think it is better that the government shall provide a shuttle service for the passengers with a reasonable fare...
Worst airport in the world
Ang tatanga naman kasi ng mga officials natin eh. Puro pera pera lng sakanila. Sa mga airports na nasubukan ko satin lng may terminal fee. Eh bakit ka pa mag gaganun kung pangit ng service nila. Wala nmn problema sa facilities eh. Ung problema is ung service nila. Dun na kikilala airport natin na. Kaya worst airport in the world ang naia tapus tong sa clark parang nagiging ganun narin. Its more fun in the philippines nga ba?ehehe

Overseas contract workers and permanent residence in a foreign country
Must have an Overseas Employment Certificate (OEC) from the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA), which can be obtained from the POEA Balik Manggagawa Processing Division. Passengers must have proof of permanent residence in a foreign country and a valid work permit card.
Passengers travelling with children below 18 years of age
Effective April 2006, minors travelling with 1 (one) parent have no need for DSWD Clearance. However, for minors travelling with an adult other than their parents (e.g. aunt, uncle, grandparents and others), a DSWD Clearance is required.
Passengers travelling as tourists

borongan airport
city na ang borongan...pero bakit walang airport?buti pa ang ibang lugar kahit hindi city ay may byahe ng eroplano.mga kababayan kaya naman ng mga opesyal ng borongan kung gugustohin lang nila.paano uunlad ang borongan kung ganito ang kalagayan?wala na nga tayong airport ang kalasada pa ay butas butas pa.all local and provincial officers think about it?for the sick of boronganon people..i love borongan because thats my home town.you know its hurt for me everytime that i heard against borongan!
borongan airport

International?
Bacolod-Silay International Airport will indeed be true to its name if there will be international flights to Bacolod-Silay Airport, because of a steady stream of tourists, businessmen, sportsmen and students, etc, who will come to Negros. Surely the opportunities are abundant, though hotels and lodging facilities, etc. need to be upgraded to international standards. Bacolod is quite clean. There is a need for aggressive advertisement to these effect. But until now the airport runway is short! The aircon in the pre-departure area does not work! The pre-departure area is quite small compared to the volume of passengers, thus it is crowded! Should there not be an annex building? What happened to the approved plan to extend the runway by 500 meters to accommodate the bigger Airbus 330? At present the runway length is even shorter than that of Cagayan de Oro!
What does the latest census or survey say as to what countries the visitors to Negros come from? Then the international budget airlines can link Bacolod to those countries/cities.

re: your data is not about the new airport of iloilo
I've moved the marker to the new location.
re: your data is not about the new airport of iloilo
(www . exploreiloilo . com/iloilo-airport . html) here's the link i've forgot to paste it.
your data is not about the new airport of iloilo
the new airport of iloilo, the Iloilo International Airport is in Sta. Barbara and Cabatuan Area. more or less 22kms from the old Iloilo domestic airport which is what most of your data here describes.
the new iloilo airport actually has 2500m runway.

re: Bureau of Immigration (BI) Officer Michael Vincent Dizon
Hope this can help, All Philippine Consulates in Asia offer a service to provide...Duly Notarized Letter of Invitation (Affidavit of Invitation) from a Sponsor Abroad..
Even with all the documents that you supplied, the person leaving PI may or may not get stopped by immigration.
Take a look at the Philippine Consulate for Malaysia - look under consulate services - h---://---.philembassykl.org.my/
Control Tower
Why? Is there a tower already in the said airport? Where is it located? Yes, if there is one then it could be an international standards already!

re: Immigration Officers
I am also facing the same issue with my wife. They are asking for a Filipino who is a resident of Malaysia to raise a invitation letter. Frankly, i do not know anyone in such capacity moreover no strange would stick their head to guarantee another stranger. This procedure is so full of shit! The Phil embassy in malaysia have no right to stop a Malaysian in his own country to invite his wife to his homeland. For GOD sake, this is my dam country!!!!
Immigration Clark Airport Philippines
To Hon. Loretta Rosales,
I wrote to you dear Hon. Loretta, Just this morning my Cousin in-law had been refused to pass exit to immigration may mga document invitation letter na hawak..dahil sa misis ko na may sakit dito sa Singapore at hindi maalagaan ang aming anak kaya nais namin na papuntahin sya upang kahit 2-linggo ay makatulong. pero ito ay nangyari na nman na ayaw sya palabasin dyan sa immigration pangalang beses na nangyari sa kanya. marami sa ating mga kababayan ang nagrereklamo sa maling patakaran ng immigration. masama ang loob ko dahil sa gumastos kmi ng pamasahe nya at ito ay nabalewa lang..hindi ganun kadali kumita ng pera dito sa ibang bansa..sana ay makatulong itong sulat ko at mapaabot sa inyo upang aksunan ang ginagawa ng mga tauhan nyo dyan.
Interesting Article

longer runway!
well, if this is the reason then I heard over the radio in Vigan that local officials already announced the start of construction. I hope and pray that this be done the earliest time coz malls in Vigan are overtakingly sprouting one after the other. Meaning people are coming heavily to Vigan, the cultural and commercial center, and the center of politics and religion! The church in Vigan is an Archdicoese.
reasons for commercial flights to come
Vigan is the old Ciudad Fernandina, the ecclessiastical center of the North, center of education, trade and commerce, a UNESCO protected cultural heritage, it was declared by UNESCO which no one is a UNESCO City except for Vigan. Vigan City is a metropolitan surrounded by 5 municipalities. It is the third oldest city / settlement in the Philippines which is manifested by the old commercial districts and residential structures . It is a tourist center and destination. It is so close to the province of Abra having no airport.
Upgrading
needs to put lights along the runway, a tower and a big terminal to attract airlines to operate. Vigan is a very strategic location economically, in military & air defense, because Vigan lies at the shores of the West Philippine Sea near Macau, Hon Kong, Hanoi, Bangkok , Ho Chi Minh (Vietnam).

OEC in DMIA
is there a POEA assistance in Clark airport? are they issuing OEC there? coz i dont have time here to go to the Phil consulate.
Kindly advice me..
I'm working now here in Spore for 6 months. Complete docs like SPass, contract and an OFW member. I would like to go back sa Phils. For vacation. Ang worry ko is this. Before ako pumunta dito, nahold sko sa immigration sa Clark coz of many questions ng immigration. I went here kasi as a tourist. And sa ofc ng immigration, I signed a document which is waiver yata na I should come back sa Phils. I was just lucky that time na nakaalis ako ksi nadala ko lumang passport ko na it showed na traveller din ako. My worry now is pag umuwi ako is mahold na naman ako or nde na ako makabalik dito sa Spore because dun sa pinirmahan ko na waiver. Can the immigration officer use that waiver para mahold ako sa pagbalik dito, even kumpleto na ako ng papers ko here? In fact before sana ako umuwi is kukuha na ako ng OEC ko. Gusto ko ksi mg vacation but I worry na nde na ako makabalik for my work here just because of the waiver na pinirmahan ko. Hope you can advice me.
re: This is on Philippine Consulate Website in HKG
PNOY Officials are one of the WORST... Look at De Lima, she defied the constitution on the TRO by the Supreme Court.. Now this problem on the right to travel again.. OMG are we going rock bottom again! Paging Commissioner David!
i wonder lang why nila hinaharang ang mga OFW to collect som
its my first time to go back pinas arriving on DM airport sa Clark. im bringing a tv which only 32 inch. I got stuck with the custody officer kasi daw ng exceed ng 10,000 ang dala ko sa dapat ako mgbyad ng tax for the tv i bought... i was shock sa total amount of tax... 15% custom tax + 12% vat = 27% total tax... Im not the only one who bring home tv during that time we are 5 in the plane some bringing 40,42 & 32 inch, but im the only one na hinarang and they ask me to go to the office to calculate ung babayaran ko.. If may policy kyo na gnyan i post nio sa Airport explaining ung mga tax na gusto nio ipabayad at hindi ung manual kyo ngcocompute halatado na ibubulsa nio lang ung makokolekta nio... At why of all mga kapwa nio Pinoy ang sinisingil nio samantalang ang dmi foreign na dapat singilin sa excess baggage plang masyado nio na pinapaboran ang ibang nation... Tingin ko hindi na kailangan pangalanan ang mga officer na ito kasi ito na ang normal na gawain ng mga matatakaw na officer dyan at alam na kung sino ang mga ito wla lng ngrereklamo formal sa maraming dahilan isa na dyan,ung abala sa pgsampa ng reklamo at sa huli mpupunta lng sa wala,.. Madami ng kalakaran dyan sana naman pgtuunan nio ng pansin kung importante talaga ang feedback ng mga ngbibiyahe papasok at palabas ng paliparang pang-daigdig sa clark...

Tourist off-loadings still raging at airports, by Jarious Bo
To those who have been victimized by the immigration officers at Clark airport, or NAIA, I am please to let you know that Jarious Bondoc of philstar.com have written about your situation. Please go to philstar.com and look for opinion. You can find Mr. Bondoc's article there. your comments under the column of Mr. Bondoc so more people will know about your sad experiences. I am a permanent resident abroad but what the Bureau of Immigration is doing under the guise of controlling human trafficking violates our constitution and it disgusts me. Do not allow this government to violate your basic right as a citizen because if you do, they will start chipping away more and more of our freedom. This Aquino administration is not about democracy as we can see.
