The re introduction of the P200 fee is to pay for the makeover of NAIA which carries the accolade of worlds worst airport. From April there will be no European carrier serving Manila.The airlines are required to pay for the overtime of Immigration and customs staff,also fund the printing of the embarcation card and are subject to other charges.
It is utterly incredible to hear the secretary of tourism (who thinks that marketing the country is as easy as selling chickenjoy)declare that the country will achieve 10 million tourists arrivals by 2016 (up from present 3.5m)
Its more fun in Philippines.....certainly more funds
