We are frequently shamed by stories of our fellow men maltreating the tourists: horrendous taxi fares, robberies, scamming by their Pinay GFs
Its a relief to know that this is not unique to the Philippines. It may not be true for Japan (they never had a lost baggage in Kansai airport) or Taiwan (I left a bag at a train station and found it there again)
This is a story of a business partner who went on tour package to Russia and Eastern Europe. He warned me not to travel to this Eastern European country. R......ia. Thieves broke the lock of their luggage and stole valuables. The worse part is that the airline from P....d refused any responsibility or liability to the incident.
Yet we beat the air out of our Philippine counterparts for small offenses.
Not only in the Philippines.
