Some haul for the sticky-fingered customs guys,I still remember when balikbayans returning to NAIA used to put pesos into their passports as a matter of course so their bags wouldnt be turned out as a delaying/punishment tactic for not paying up
once when flying from Manila to baguio, before we boarded the plane, i was asked to stand on a box, and the security people did a quick search, he asked me what was in my pocket, i had some British coins in my pocket, i showed him it was coins, he looked at them in my hand, took a £1 coin, smiled at me, and told me to board the plane, i was a bit
so i didn't say anything to him. i told my misses later and she went
. its not just the £1 i lost
, but if he would risk his job for a £1, he's a security risk, what else would he let people on the plane?
