PHILIPPINES FACTS AND INFORMATION




FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ALWAYS ARE HUNGRY FOR MORE INFORMATION- A BRIEF INTRO -  THE PHILIPPINES IS AN A COLLECTION OF OVER 7,100 ISLANDS. THE PHILIPPINES IS THE 12TH MOST POPULOUS COUNTRY IN THE WORLD WITH A POPULATION OF 92 MILLION PEOPLE.
THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGES OF THE COUNTRY ARE FILIPINO AND ENGLISH. THE GOVERNMENT OF THE PHILIPPINES IS A DEMOCRACY AND OVER 90% OF THE RELIGION OF THE COUNTRY IS CHRISTIAN.
SPEAKING ONLY FOR AMERICANS- YOU DO NOT NEED A VISA TO GO TO THE PHILIPPINES. YOU CAN STAY UP TO 2 WEEKS OR MORE WITH JUST A VALID PASSPORT.
OVER THAT TIME YOU WILL NEED A VISA OR AN EXTENSION FOR A PROLONGED STAY IN THE COUNTRY.

FOR TRANSPORTATION TO THE PHILIPPINES, I ONLY KNOW THAT FROM NEW YORK, THERE ARE NO NON- STOP FLIGHTS TO THE PHILIPPINES. YOU HAVE TO CHANGE PLANES USUALLY IN TOKYO OR HONG KONG TO FLY TO MANILA.
WHEN YOU ARE IN THE PHILIPPINES, THE MONETARY UNIT IS THE PHILIPPINE PESO. THE VALUE CHANGES FROM DAY TO DAY, BUT APPROXIMATELY ONE PESO IS EQUAL TO 45 US DOLLARS. AMERICAN MONEY GOES FAR IN THE PHILIPPINES.
