Comment from a reader on the post: Clark Airport is the Meanest in the Philippines:
My girl and I regularly fly through Clark
and have never had an issue but I’ve heard horror stories. I have spoken with
immigration in Olongapo and they could not understand the bull either but they
said any Immigration Officer can refuse to let any person leave for any reason.
It is up to them personally. The course is for emigrants not tourists but one
day someone in authority will fix this but don’t hold your breath. Maybe just
maybe the male immigration officers from the line were removed and replaced by
females and now they need to exercise their authority at a different spot
within the terminal. I’ve noticed they are all elderly male officers. We have
been asked if we were migrating but showed the accommodation and return ticket
and the visa to Australia clearly showed it was for three months. Maybe that’s
what they were leading too.
From the Bugle: It really is an insult to
the Filipino people. Singaporeans, Thais and Malays are allowed to migrate and travel
freely but the Philippine government believes Filipinos have to take courses to
learn how to live overseas and need to be interrogated before they travel
overseas. The Philippine government should have more respect for the Filipino people.
