That is a good question, I am waiting to hear from my Fiancee. She is in a hotel near the embassy and SLEC on the third floor. I last talked to Pat at about 2:00am CST or about 3:00pm Saturday Manila time. At that time it was raining hard and the first level of the hotel was flooded, but power was still on. If I can get in touch with Pat I will post what I find out. I just checked the US Embassey's site and nothing about flooding there.

That is a "who knows?" kind of an answer... I would say you gotta take it a day at a time, and maybe waste a day ehre or there to show up on time in case they are open.

I heard from Pat this Sunday morning at 8:20 am CST. They had a total blackout for two days, some ares were still flooded. The hotel where she is was on low ground. I am sure the embassy will understand if people do not show for the interviews. I tried getting Pat on her phone, but so far it rings. That is more than it has since Friday night. Pat need s to do into the SLEC on Tuesday for the sputum test. I will post anything more I here. I will try to call Pat tonight after 6:00pm CST.

Hi guys.

I called SLMEC around 5:00 a.m. and they said they are open today (Sep 28), there is no flooding. Business as usual.

Am trying to find out what the situation is in Carriedo...called their Clearance Center but no answer. Their main office in Taft says all the clearance centers should be open, but couldn't tell me if the one in Carriedo is flooded or not.

Will keep looking for advisories on the subject. I have to get my NBI Clearance this week.

Yes, the interview was scheduled for the 28th. Pat will start the sputum test on Tuesday, so we have a bit of a wait for the results. Pat was vaccinated for TB years ago, so I am sure the test will come back negative.
