  • Cruising Guide to the Philippines
    Cruising Guide to the Philippines For Yachtsmen By Conant M. Webb Draft of 06/16/09 Webb - Cruising Guide to the Phillippines Page 2 INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world after Indonesia, with around 7,000 islands. Relatively few yachts cruise here, but there seem to be more every year. In most areas it is still rare to run across another yacht. There are pristine coral reefs, turquoise bays and snug anchorages, as well as more metropolitan delights. The Filipino people are very friendly and sometimes embarrassingly hospitable. Their culture is a unique mixture of indigenous, Spanish, Asian and American. Philippine charts are inexpensive and reasonably good. English is widely (although not universally) spoken. The cost of living is very reasonable. This book is intended to meet the particular needs of the cruising yachtsman with a boat in the 10-20 meter range. It supplements (but is not intended to replace) conventional navigational materials, a discussion of which can be found below on page 16. I have tried to make this book accurate, but responsibility for the safety of your vessel and its crew must remain yours alone. CONVENTIONS IN THIS BOOK Coordinates are given for various features to help you find them on a chart, not for uncritical use with GPS. In most cases the position is approximate, and is only given to the nearest whole minute. Where coordinates are expressed more exactly, in decimal minutes or minutes and seconds, the relevant chart is mentioned or WGS 84 is the datum used. See the References section (page 157) for specific details of the chart edition used.

  • Nytårsrejsen Til Filippinerne – 2014
    Nytårsrejsen til Filippinerne – 2014. Martins Dagbog Dorte og Michael kørte os til Kastrup, og det lykkedes os at få en opgradering til business class - et gammelt tilgodebevis fra lidt lægearbejde på et Singapore Airlines fly. Vi fik hilst på vore 16 glade gamle rejsevenner ved gaten. Karin fik lov at sidde på business class, mens jeg sad på det sidste sæde i økonomiklassen. Vi fik julemad i flyet - flæskesteg med rødkål efterfulgt af ris á la mande. Serveringen var ganske god, og underholdningen var også fin - jeg så filmen "The Hundred Foot Journey", som handlede om en indisk familie, der åbner en restaurant lige overfor en Michelin-restaurant i en mindre fransk by - meget stemningsfuld og sympatisk. Den var instrueret af Lasse Hallström. Det tog 12 timer at flyve til Singapore, og flyet var helt fuldt. Flytiden mellem Singapore og Manila var 3 timer. Vi havde kun 30 kg bagage med tilsammen (12 kg håndbagage og 18 kg i en indchecket kuffert). Jeg sad ved siden af en australsk student, der skulle hjem til Perth efter et halvt år i Bergen. Hans fly fra Lufthansa var blevet aflyst, så han havde måttet vente 16 timer i Københavns lufthavn uden kompensation. Et fly fra Air Asia på vej mod Singapore forulykkede med 162 personer pga. dårligt vejr. Miriams kuffert var ikke med til Manilla, så der måtte skrives anmeldelse - hun fik 2200 pesos til akutte fornødenheder. Vi vekslede penge som en samlet gruppe for at spare tid og gebyr - en $ var ca. 45 pesos. Vi kom i 3 minibusser ind til Manila Hotel, hvor det tog 1,5 time at checke os ind på 8 værelser.

  • Metro Manila Market Update Q1 2017
    RESEARCH METRO MANILA MARKET UPDATE Q1 2017 METRO MANILA REAL ESTATE SECTOR REVIEW METRO MANILA AND THE THREAT OF EMERGING CITIES The attractiveness of Metro Manila for real estate developers and investors continues to exist. Although highly congested and vacancy rates are constantly dwindling, it is still the best location for business and investment activities. Considering that the seat of government, head offices of key companies, and the most reputable universities and institutions are located in Metro Manila, demand is perceived to always be buoyant and pervasive. The real challenge is innovation and the creation of new stock to cater to the limitless demand. The Philippine National Economic and Development Authority defines Philippine Emerging Cities as cities, relative to Manila, that are rapidly catching up in terms of business activities, innovation and ability to attract people. A few of the notable emerging cities in the Philippines are Angeles (Clark), Cebu, Davao, Iloilo and Zamboanga. Cebu, Davao and Iloilo are top 5, 6 and 8, respectively, among the Philippine Highly Urbanized Cities (HUC) of the country. Angeles City’s makings is supplemented by the much- awaited Clark Green City. Zamboanga City was identified as one of the emerging cities when it comes to information technology Source: Wikipedia operations. The city has the propensity to flourish being the third major gateway and transshipment important transportation networks, largest city in the Philippines in hub in Northern Mindanao, it will increase access to jobs and terms of land area.
