Dapat DFA ang gagastos sa airfare ng passport team, may pondo dapat nakalaan diyan. Kung yung drug mule nga na malapit nang bitayin sa ibang bansa, gagastusan pa nila yung pamasahe ng kamag anak. Itong lehitimong lakaran wala?! Kung ganun baluktod ang priorities nila.

This is true.

I was able to find DFA Secretary's address, DFA Personnel Section and their Action Center. I sent emails to this regarding this issue. I hope they can send me a note to support their claim or not.

It looks to me that this is a clear extortion in the making.

Who else knows email adds of as appropriate media journalists? Let me know. Thanks po.

$108 to be exact ang renewal tapos umaabot pa ng 6-8 weeks... Napaka incompetent pa ng mga staff lalo na sa Sydney Consulate.

dito naman middle east, minimum Qr100 (Php1200) ang bayad sa kahit anong pa-stamp o authenticate... even yung form nila pag kukuha ka ng nbi clearance may bayad din.. tapos pagdating dito ng nbi pa-authenticate ulit sa kanila another bayad na naman... govt talaga natin pag wala pera di gagana!
