Another of those Filipino crab mentallity. I hope Filipinos get a better chance in life so that they wont be biting each other like rabid dogs. Sick and tired of this things especially when I tried living once in the Philippines. I guess they’re really miserably poor that is why they wouldn’t mind selling their souls and their “kababayans” to others. May God have mercy on these people.

Hi, I’m actually quite worried now. I went to Japan in June and Nov 2009, staying 2 weeks and 2 months each. I’m scheduled to go back to Japan in March, but i was told i’m only allowed to enter Japan 2 times in 6 months, anyone frequent flyer to Japan, is there such a rule?
