Thank you,
Diana

Thank you for those sites, I'll check them out!
I'm also working for a BPO company in Alabang. Just awaiting the start date.

What BPO? You speak a language that is needed?

Haha yes, English. I'm basically a native. I was born here in the Phillipines but left when I was 4 to the states. I've moved back a little over a month ago so my English is top notch 
I am working for Convergys.

Good morning all, arrived here from the UK couple of weeks ago with my Filipina wife. Purchased Condo Uptown BGC just over the road from Uptown Mall BGC. Have retired here and applied for my 13A non immigrant visa as I am now retired.
Do enjoy a social beer and would like to know any local expats bars in BGC area I could visit and make new friends . Have visited Texas Road House and Chicken Wings Bars Uptown Mall. Best Regards Kevin.

Hi Kevin, I am currious; Why did you not apply for retirement visa? Just asking. It seems (so I am told but not sure) the best visa for retirees even though married to a Filipina (which I am). Btw, I am holding 13A (permanent now).

Maybe check Amazon who are now hiring starting August 13th Conrad Hotel in Pasay. See attached link:
