I'm not going to commit myself to anything unless I feel she can maintain her interest in me without me sending her any money but I will continue writing and emailing.
Just bear in mind that if you don't send her any money she will either starve to death or start peddling her a$$ again. Life is cheap in the PI, but it is not free, and letters, e mail, etc all cost money.

If she works in the bar but doesn't go bar fine her base salary will be something like 100 pesos = £1 a day. The whole concept of her 'waiting' for you is that you support her.

If she does stay in the bar the temptation/pressure to go with guys will be heavy, and there will be plenty of girls (including mama san, who gets commission) who will want her to, jealous girls who hate to see someone better themselves in any way.

Plus, as soon as a bar customer hears she won't go bar fine they'll do their best to get her, 'thrill of the chase' and all that.
