I agree, other SE Asian countries (I'm excl Thailand which is popular) are mentioned in holiday TV progs, travel sections of newspapers, cookery but never the Philippines. You see/read info on other "low profile" countries - Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, but never the Philippines. When something eventually arrives it's got that bloody woman in it - for God's sake they were kicked out over 20 years ago. Hopefully her segment of the programme will be small. The Filipinos should have done the same as the Romanians in 1989 - put against a wall & shot.
