SANTA AT THE CONSULATE
2007-12-08 07:20:00 Wednesday 12/5/07 was a great day to have a celebration of life! The occasion was the Christmas party held at the Philippine Consulate in honor of the media. Address was in Los Angeles at 3600 Wilshire blvd on the 5th floor. In attendance were the wonderful officers and crew of the consulate spiced up by media members representing different publications in Southern California, USA. A traditional Holy Mass kicked off the party. Fr Palines delivered the sacrament and was a superb host at the same time. The Filipinos present were pleasantly reminded of younger days attending evening mass at the old country. The Christmas spirit was embodied in this tableau of Holy Eucharist being held in a cozy environment. Attended by persons who were bonded together in their quest to serve a nation that needed guidance in one way or another. The Philippine national anthem was rendered by Romy Borje ( he rocks!) who has the energy of a young adult but the wisdom of a media patriarch. Mr Borje ...

US Consulate On Buying Land In Panama (Panama News, Vol.10, No.14)
2007-06-13 20:52:00 The following is general information on purchasing real estate in Panama. It is not to be construed as legal advice. The different categories of Panama real esate make it imperative to engage professionals for more detailed information. Panama real estate laws on the mainland can be quite different than Panama real estate laws on islands, coastal areas, and areas near national borders.Generally, there are two very different ways to buy real estate in Panama: 1) the purchase of titled property, and 2) the purchase of rights of possession (derecho posesorio). Titled land in Panama, and the process of buying this, is similar in concept to that in the US, and land and deeds are duly recorded with the Public Registry (Registro Público). "Rights of possession" is an entirely different process, a kind of squatter's or concession rights. For rights of possession on the mainland, it might be possible to convert this later to a titled property; on islands and coastal and border areas, it is ...

India Consulate in Dubai
2007-04-11 11:38:00 Wait and Queue are the two words that I have been fed and nurtured all my growing years. Those of us who have grown in a state controlled economy too must have been familiar with these words. Be it a milk booth, a rationed grain shop, a barber, a bank, a post office ? Q is every where. Wait - is the hallmark of expressing one?s domination. Be it as miniscule as a peon sitting on wooden stool or a clerk busy cleaning his beetle nut residue from his teeth or a manager dozing behind the closed door cabin. Wait is distinct pronouncement as soon as you utter to solicit something. In recent years, with the spread of privatisation and internet, Wait has lost its steam but Q would be hard to banish, as long as India?s population is ballooning.After many years, I have had my dose of wait and Q at India consulate in Dubai.?For dead body, please go to counter number 8, If no body then go to counter number 7? This notice on the glass showcase on the right side of the foyer was a fair indicatio...
