you know a lot of people get paided low wages there and if you fired them they would only be replaced with somebody else on low wages.

who did you post it to, the letter maybe sat in the local post office already and waiting for it to be posted...get the person you was sending it to...to go there and ask

my mother inlaw did that after a week and it was already there

Yeah, I know most are on low wages, but also know that there are a lot of unemployed who are seeking jobs.

Anyway, she finally received a card last Thursday saying to go to the post-office to pick it up. They made her open it in front of them to check the contents. Is this usual? Luckily she only had to pay a few pesos.

Just wish there was a quicker service from here to there as she is able to send me things quickly (which she ahs done twice), but it doesn't seem possible for the other way around apart from expensive courier. I'll just have to think in advance for Balikbayan or if she ever comes here again or I go there.
