Carless Day in Manila a Solution to Oil Crisis?

I think the imposition of Carless Day in Manila wouldn’t be fair enough to all the Filipinos. Perhaps there are other solutions aside from prohibiting the use of cars in a day. The idea of Carless Day is actually a good suggestion, but i am sure it would be impossible. It would be of help maybe.

Boracay Nightmare

Finally am feeling a lot better today! I can now stay longer in front of my laptop than before. After our Boracay trip i wasn’t able to share the experience. I’m supposed to write the story when we came back in Manila, but iba pala ang pakiramdam ng matagal ng nawala sa circulation. Tapos bigla pa akong nagkasakit. Nagkatrangkaso ako for more than a week. Anyway, i want to say thank you to all my friends and bloggers who wished me well, who sent their emails and text messages. Thank you guys!

Before i left for Boracay i’ve already prepared my postings in advance to cover the days from June 18 to June 21 while in Boracay.

Actually, we’re only scheduled for 4 days in Boracay, but unfortunately we were not able to fly back in Manila on June 21 because June 20 Asian Spirit office called us and we’re advised that Typhoon Frank will hit Boracay anytime. Asian Spirit re-booked us on June 22, Sunday.

The following day we’re all surprised that the Island of Boracay was in Signal No. 3. That day, Boracay experienced no electricity and even water. At night we would go out and walk despite of heavy rains and strong winds. We would walk with our flash lights on. We would go out and find food since all our baons we’re consumed. Many of the restaurants and even small stores were all closed.

This was the island before the typhoon. Before Frank came halos nagawa na namin lahat ng dapat gawin at makita sa Boracay. We even finished our island hopping adventure and got the chance to visit popular islands around Boracay. At nakasabay pa namin sina Lorna Tolentino and her sons, Jinggoy, Tirso and few of their friends in showbiz while riding banana boat.

The day Frank made a devastating welcome in the island was a terrifying experience. Nakakatakot. Halos lahat wala na sa Boracay. Electric, water, atm, celphones wala din. Sa gabi halos alon ng dagat ang madidinig mo na para bang may darating na Tsunami. Ang ingay ng dahon ng mga niyog. Di ka makalabas dahil parang merong sand storm. Masakit sa balat.

So June 22 came. All of us readied to come home in Manila though we have the feeling that this flight might be canceled again. We confirmed at the Asian Spirit office and we’re told not to worry since there were more flights from Cebu then to Manila. Imagine our flight was sheduled 3pm pero that time 2pm na nasa harap pa kami ng Asian Spirit office para malaman kung confirm ang flight o hindi. We can’t believe why Asian Spirit can’t make a stand of their own if the flight is canceled or not. Di lang kami ang grupo that time, madami kami. Then 2:30 pm we’re asked na magmadali sa Airport dahil tuloy ang flight. Imagine isang tricycle, isang bangka then tricycle again bago makarating ng airport. Ang lalaki ng mga bagahe namin. Di na kami naligo lahat dahil excited na kaming mag siuwi sa Manila.

When we arrived sa airport past 3pm na. Kampante kami kasi ang sabi every hour naman daw merong flight na pwede kami sumakay. Hanggang sa nalaman namin wala na palang susunod na flight at last na yung 5pm kaso di kami pwedeng sumakay since regular flight yun at bawal ang chance passenger.

Ang daming Koreans ang nagsibalik sa Boracay dahil halos magulo na ang sitwasyon sa airport. Ang dami namin nagsibalik na galit na galit sa office ng Asian Spirit. Imagine ang perwisyo na ginawa sa amin. Nakapag check out na kami at halos lahat kami wala ng budget para magbayad uli ng accommodation plus our food kung mag stay uli kami hanggang June 24. Yes 2 days pa kami uling mag stay sa Bora dahil wala na daw flight the following day.

Can’t you imagine sa galit namin we asked Asian Spirit to pay for our accommodation and provide us food in Bora dahil sila ang may kasalanan ng lahat. They didn’t even listened to our pleas. Ang sagot sa amin since Zero Fare ang gamit namin wala kaming karapatan sabihin ang lahat ng hinihingi namin. OMG!! Discrimination pa sa Asian Spirit! Sobrang inis naming lahat sa ginawa sa amin ng bulok na airlines na to! Di namin matanggap ang sagot sa amin ng Manager ng Asian Spirit!

Kaya the next time you visit Bora, it’s better to ride with Philippine Airlines kahit mahal pa. First time kong sumakay sa Asian Spirit papunta pa lang ang dami ng reklamo not from us. From other passengers na kasabay namin. San ka nga naman makakakita ng eroplanong de paypay at walang aircon! Isa sa mga kasabay namin sa plane mas mabuti pa daw ang FX malamig ang aircon! San ka nga naman makakakita ng plane na biglang aalis ng wala man lang abiso from the staff. Bigla-bigla na lang lilipad! Nakakatawa pero nakaktakot ang ginagawa ng Asian Spirit sa mga flghts nila. Pag akyat pa lang hanggang paglapag dasal na kaming lahat sa sobrang takot. For the first time, i told myself i won’t fly again with Asian Spirit in my whole life! BULOK!

Anyways, we safely returned home in Manila last June 24. The 4-day planned vacation became 6 nights and 7 days stay in Boracay!

Reminder : Winner of the Top Commentator of June will be announced later.
