    I think it would be nice to buy a place in the Phils, and I understand it would be in my wife's name.
    If the man is older than the wife, it is security for her (and her children if they have any) when the husband is no longer around.

    I have thought about this and will probably buy later.

    Lots of clever cash coming this way and thats a fact.

    Hey fred know anything about the Clark Economic Zone? I believe they are going to turn that into a huge development. Know anything
    It's time to kick ass and chew bubble gum. And I'm all out of gum.

    yeah,i think thats good to know fred..im much aware of the crisis..at first i declined the job because i know it might be hard to sell due to the economic crisis..and after we had typhoon and all..maybe it will be harder to sell..but the team where i belong now is very much positive about selling..i sincerely admire the determination and hardwork..so if i keep myself on the positive side surely i will be able to sell..and i do believe that "YOU BECOME WHAT YOU THINK"..there will always be someone who will looking for a property..and it wont kill me if ill post it here..if i will be in UK..i will surely save then invest for a property..

    Yes..Just a few years ago property values here boomed...
    Actually I say boomed but that could be the wrong word..The prices increased along with building materials such as rebar that hit their peak 2 years ago so as usual here the boom was fueled by inflation and the tons of cash sent from OFW`s..I am constantly amased on the budgets that people come up with to build houses,resorts and apartment buildings here ALL OVER THE R.P..
    Rebar is pretty damned cheap now due to a lack of demand by the Chinese but cement,sand and gravel is more expensive then its ever been driving the market price up generally..
    I cant see a dip in prices or demand at all..
    Weird eh?
    Spooky even.

    Well im guessing lots of people moving back or over with redundancy, life savings or on the pensions as many companies as they closed there final salary pension schemes all those that could jump did so early. Then all the OFW's who have called it a day seems far queiter in earls court these days i think many must have gone back..

    There is the chance that if those Filipinos with talent decide to pack up from foreign shores, go home and repatriate their savings, that they may well finally start being entrepreneurial in the Phils instead of abroad and that would be a good thing for the Philippines. A lot of their best brains leave to work as OFW's, it would be good to see them back home being successful at home, Asia has a future!

    Personally I would love to own property in the Phils, even a Condo with a 50 year lease but it won't happen as I just don't have the cash and by the time I am old enough to retire the Philippines may be a rich country, by that time the UK may well be pretty poor.

    Word the world is rotating round from west to east look at the sale of the flar in Hong kong for a world record. People will look for real estate near by to china and Hong kong where they speak a international language... Where they are near but not under the grip of China.

    Now if Phill can get its self into gear it could be the hub of asia it often has
