Thinking Outside The Box
Manny Paez
I am collaborating with a client and a good friend, Dr. Mark Catley in developing a GPS Navigation system for the Philippines. Expect this to hit the market in a month’s time. A must for balikbayans and delivery fleets.
The system is so impressive that it also includes U-turn slots which is very unique in Metro-Manila roads.
Although as in any GPS system, this needs common sense from the user.
We intend to have each vehicle in the Philippines to be equipped with this GPS navigation that it will be sold for as low as eighteen thousand pesos only.
We have three models to choose from, from basic to wide screen to fancy models. A necessity for balikbayans and transport business.
A great Christmas gift.
As with any GPS Navigation, this is not perfect. There are still a lot of streets in the Philippines that is not yet mapped. Mapping is continious as volunteers do this as their hobby.

Ano ang sinasabi after sex, Pag asawa mo I love you. Pag kabit, ang galing mo. Pag syota, isa pa. Pag hindi mo kilala, bilisan mo 3 hours lang tayo!
Mekaniko: Sir hindi ko po maayos ang break ng kotse mo.
Car Owner: Naku, paano na yan?
Mekaniko: Di bale po at nilakasan ko naman ang busina nyo!

How can one make sure that the balikbayan box company will deliver your packages?
The best source is your friends. Ask about the background and record of the company. Another good source is the internet, one may check with the Better Business Bureau or the company’s website.

Manila Forwarder tries to limit adding operations to two new countries a year. However, the demand is so high that we have to flex ourselves into four this year.
Friends also keeps coming in offering their investments that it was easy to cope up with the demand.
There’s really a lot of Pinoys all over the world!

It reminds me of my experience in Dessert Storm in Saudi Arabia. My American friends thought that I could speak the native dialect there when they heard me speaking Tagalog to some Pinoys there.

Manila Forwarder’s Philippines to USA shipping have a dramatic increase in sales. From once a month shipment, it now offers twice a month service.
The service is for US Citizens only who have visited the Philippines within the year.

Palawan is still the best vacation spot and land investment property in the Philippines. The international airport in San Vicente is scheduled to finish in 2010.
This will service the sleepy Port Barton and the 15 Km San Vicente Beach, the longest white sand beach in the Philippines.

Flooding is back as a perennial problem in Navotas, Malabon, and Valenzuela areas. I know that it has been solved before the elections.
Now that the election is over, I wonder why it is back again? Any connections?
