Dear Resident of Davao
My name is Joanne Finnamore-Corkin and I am the Consul at the British Embassy in Manila. I plan to visit Davao next Tuesday/Wednesday 10/11 February. I am currently awaiting permission from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office for my proposed trip.
Whilst in Davao I would like to meet with as many British Nationals as possible and have the opportunity to explain to you what the Consular Section of an Embassy can and cannot do. The meetings will also be an opportunity for those attending to ask questions. I am currently making enquiries with the Marco Polo Hotel and plan to have two or three separate meetings to allow as many as possible to attend. I will also allocate time for one to one meetings with British Nationals who have concerns relating to consular matters but do not wish to raise these in public. I should stress that I will not be able to answer any questions relating to visas or comment on any applications/refusals. My initial plan is to hold the group meetings on the night of Tuesday 10 February (around 8-9.30 - a bit late but I am constrained by flight times) the morning of Wednesday 11 (around 8- 10) and, if necessary at lunch time (12-1.30).
Due to the Data Protection Act, I am obliged to send this e-mail blind to you all. This is rather unfortunate as you will not be able to see who else it has gone to. All the addressees have been taken from LOCATE or an old list we had showing those who had registered with the Embassy. I would to meet as many people as possible and would therefore be grateful you would pass this message onto other British Nationals who you know. Please also stress that the meetings are open to all British Nationals, not just those who have registered.
I will be in touch again as soon as I have the green light for my trip as I would like to try and have a rough idea of the numbers involved. I hope to see you next week.
Best wishes,
Joanne
