oh really ,i live in laguna but i used to go to alabang town center and asian hospital...

I lived across the street from ATC, go straight through the gate and all the way to the end of the road, 2nd house on the right. President Ramos lived a few streets away. The Asian hospital is the best in the Philippines.......

I worked in Batino in the PEZA zone. Setup a calibration laboratory for my former US office.

Whenever I had clients or visitors from the home offce come for a visit, I always gave them a "Philippines Survival Kit" which had packs of tissues to keep on their person at all times. Some would laugh but being caught for the first time without them when they needed them wasn't so funny. :whistle:
