    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    I wonder why he said he was getting an international flight from Laoag when he was actually catching a domestic flight to Manila?

    Head south, get a boat across to Malaysia, put some distance between yourself and the PI then turn yourself in to the Irish Embassy wherever, and ask for an ETD. Better than sitting there maintaining your innocence because no one in the PI will believe you

    Agreed but with his luck he`ll probably be kidnapped during his escape attempt and held for ransom by Abu Sayaff!

    I did it from Sitangkai across to Sabah, but you're right, even though his family have money he is going to have to sit it out either inside nick or outside, he hasn't got any luck

    Isn't there a boat from Sarangani to Indonesia? That would be safer than going out west if you're not Rambo.

    If he has access to funds then it definitely sounds like a good idea to get to out, and I'm sure money will buy a ride. However, once you get to one of these neighbouring countries, how do you deal with the fact you have no entry stamp in your passport when you try and leave? Or is that where the embassy/consulate comes in?

    Money talks in Asia Trefor, the cash that gets you from Pinas into Malaysia will also get you across through porous Asian borders to the Irish embassy closest to you. People-smuggling routes or corridors are open around the world especially to someone with a few quid. You land after dark on a coast somewhere, no one's there to ask immigration questions.

    When I went back-door from the PI no one in Sabah greeted our boat when we landed at night. When I came back from Sabah to Sitangkai with a boat of illegal immigrant Pinoys there was no customs or immigration officers. Corridors everywhere
