I for one believe that the R.P should have minimum financial requirements for foreigners wanting to do business here.. For their own welfare.... 26K not nearly enough in my humble opinion.
There are more European beggars here than you might think because they thought the could compete with local businessmen.

I use to have a small poultry farm near naga city but that never worked out because getting a good price for them once they were fully reared was impossible
I still have a share in a internet shop in makati which does quite well and a couple of food outlets in dumaguete
