Was walking around Malate. 95% of the shops are closed. Shopping mall also closed.

Went to check out.Cafe Havana, EA, the bay are closed. Heard from the guards that EA will be moving to a new compounds, about 100m down the road, on Monday.

Will go check out z6 and exclusiv later.

I went to Cafe Havana just a moment ago this evening and those places are closed. Are there any other places open today or this weekend. Please enlighten me your input is greatly appreciated.

Very quiet today.

Z6 and exclusiv are open last night. And according to a taxi driver P Burgeos and Edna are open too. Good luck!

Almost all have similar rates.

Easiest,

Western union

Recipient needs to show transaction no, sender name and their own I

Also Kababayan and others, can collect from Cebuano Luhlier path shops

25k is excessive if you meant SGD

Best, if the person has bank account DBS remit is good rates with zero transaction fees

But send 5k by 5k SGD

But withdraw can be max 20k peso to 40k peso depending on bank

Any money above 100k peso banks can hold the money and ask questions in Philippines

If it's for valid purpose, then no worries

But I don't trust Philippines banks to show them my Singapore van balances if they ask for source .

When I went to local bank, manager Tells me he saw me logged in online banking 3 times

Talk about privacy

Comparable

Google I remit or Kababayan

They publish the rates.

But as I said 25k will be drama in one send.

[etsys]

I remit

Accept maximum 10,000$ per transaction

Very safe

But there's always possible trouble if you meet WeChat girls, some time

Don't worry anyway

This girl, as lot of girls, is just doing the Filipino thing of borrowing money

Borrow means don't return

If she's starting to annoy you, then I will tell her I left Philippines early and ignore her

Some borrowing can become very painful
..

Experience

If she had asked for 20k then I will start to sweat

Why rape ? Is she too young ?
