Discrimination against fat people in Manila
Character : late 30’s single. Weight 90kg and height 1.63m. Female.Loves to hang out in the gym and books the treadmill. Always warns me not to be naughty or she would sit on me. Loves to joke about her weight when she sees people’s embarrassment over the issue.
Bengbeng: How was your holiday?
Carole: I spent ten days in Manila. It is such a crowded city with lots of contrasts. Outside a shopping mall, I saw rows and rows of Ferraris and Mercedez but on the other hand there were just as many 30-year-old and 40-year-old cars parked there too.
Before I entered that big, big, big shopping mall, I was frisked by security guards with weapons. There were all sorts of weapons visible. It was like an entry to the secured sections of a Malaysian airport. Even so you don’t see the weapons in Malaysia.
The seafood was great. Mussels were dirt cheap and I ordered it by the kilogram. The bluefin tuna and whitefin tuna was great. They had a sauce dip made from red sugar cane. You have to taste it to believe it.
My host even arranged a male escort for me. What a laugh! He was absolutely handsome and took me to a few night spots. I could afford him but no hanky panky lah. He was there to provide security for me as a friend just in case I got lost or didn’t know where to find the toilets hehe.
I saw these jeepney or whatever you call it. I decided to try one. It consists of a small jeep, with very low ceiling with two rows of seats facing each other. Each row is meant for twelve persons. The jeepney will not move until there is exactly twelve persons in each row.
It was already like a sardine can at ten persons. Number eleven came and the driver came and banged on the windows and everybody squeezed in further automatically. Number twelve came. The driver came and banged on the windows and everybody squeezed in further automatically. Some people gave me glaring looks that could kill. I was already sitting on only one butt. I then pushed forward my one butt out until I almost fell out of the seat.
The passenger sat down and the bus moved. I can’t remember exactly but I think the journey cost me 40 pesos. When I was there the exchange rate was RM100 for 1200 pesos.
Next time you must come with me. I enjoyed the night life. You will too. Don’t bring Mrs Bengbeng , huh? And then laughs like she has cracked the world’s biggest joke 
Bengbeng | interesting characters, thoof
male escort? itik? :O
get a ruler and measure..u r probably qualified
interesting experience! wonder where she went and her fare was Php40!
i just asked . she doesn’t know. she only knows the journey took 20 minutes. after that she got off and the escort called and his boss sent a Mercedez to pick them up :). she didn’t pay. the male escort paid.
I read this and laughed so hard……… needed to wee. Damn. Bladder control ain’t what it used to be, LOL…
she wants to go again
Find out how to arrange that male escort, my friend is going to Manila next month
she didnt pay a single cent. the male escort is in the employment of her friend. his task that day and a few days after that was to just take care of her and show her around
. so you could say he lent her his services 
she gave her escort an expensive branded belt as a token thank you present.
yeah, my philipines friends told me that too.. there has fantastic nightlife..
i might go there in a year or two. it is not too fr from Kota Kinabalu.
