...of squatter in the Philippines? It is also called informal settlers, In the Philippines, a distinction is made between squatters who squat because of poverty and squatters who squat because they want to profit (receive payment in exchange for leaving the real estate property). Squatters who hope to make a profit are called "professional squatters". 2. What are the reasons why is it that squatters would not want to leave their places? The squatters here in the Philippines have wreaked havoc in the country and they are out of control. The problem is quite obvious and the solution is staring everyone in the face; there are just not enough public servants with enough guts to address the issue. 3. What do we mean professional squatters? Are they helping the society or the government? "Professional Squatters" refers to individuals or groups who occupy lands without the express consent of the landowner and who have sufficient income for legitimate housing. The term shall also apply to persons, who have previously been awarded home lots or housing units by the Government but who sold, leased or transferred the same and settled illegally in the same place or in another urban area, and non-bonafide occupants and intruders of lands reserved for socialized housing.

Food served in fast food restaurants typically caters to a "meat-sweet diet" and is offered from a limited menu; is cooked in bulk in advance and kept hot; is finished and packaged to order; and is usually available ready to take away, though seating may be provided. Fast food restaurants are typically part of a restaurant chain or franchise operation, which provisions standardized ingredients and/or partially prepared foods and supplies to each restaurant through controlled supply channels (UrbanDictionary.com.ph).

...Mang Inasal: Humble Stories and Where They Are Today!!! The epitome of success could never be achieved if one did not set a foot at the bottom of the staircase. Did you know that Mang Inasal, one of the most preferred dining places of the Filipinos today, can prove this? Where Did Mang Inasal start? Establishing its first branch in a 3-year-old unoccupied space in Robinsons Mall Carpark, Iloilo on December 12, 2003, Mang Inasal quickly became a hit for the Ilonggos. Of course, it would not be done without the efforts of its owner, Mr. Edgar Sia II. After conducting a research on what could be the common “taste” of the 16 regions in the Philippines, Sia figured out that “barbecue” (or simply, Inasal in Ilonggo) is the mass appeal—a feat that has been capturing the hearts and empty stomachs of the Filipino people. Before enterprising his business to Luzon, specifically in Manila, Mang Inasal opened its second outlet in Roxas City, Sia’s hometown. With this, his business bloomed in the provinces to 26 branches; a proof that his Inasal has really caught the Filipino tastebuds. In 2006, he finally opened his outlet in Manila, a venture that he referred to as the “make-or-break” city. It was during this year when the city was in the middle of rice shortage (and as we all know, rice is a primary food for the Filipinos). This was where he opened the “Unli Rice” promo, which was only supposed to run for two months. Seeing that it has attracted more customers, the promo became...

...1. Who are the founders of kaingin? An English block (professor: Mr. Bing Polo) of Batch 1984. It was started in their first year of college (1981). Started as an immersion/exposure activity, initially as a requirement by Mr. Polo, then the insertions became a regular thing (not weekly initially, but intermittently) for some members of the class. The group that continued to go on insertions invited friends from other classes and the group grew. The following year, Mr. Polo required another exposure trip for his English class, and some people from that batch joined the upperclassmen who went regularly. Eventually it became a weekly thing (Saturdays). Midweek, we would have a prayer/sharing session, conducted by our Spiritual Advisor, Denny Toledo, who eventually became a Jesuit priest some time after we graduated. 2. Why was it started? What brought these people together? *see above 3. How did the idea of building an organization start? *see above 4. When did Kaingin officially become an org in ateneo? Not known--orgs were not official/formal during our time. 5. Roughly how many members did kaingin have when it was just started as an org? One English block during the required insertion; members of that class who stuck around and continued going were around 10 maybe. Then they were joined by friends. 6. How did the area insertions work during that time? Every Saturday morning, 3-4 hours (8-12nn). The kids would be there in one area (parang activity center ng barangay) and...

It is fast becoming a famous established burger joint in Metro Manila with 15 branches opened and more coming soon. And we knew it’ll be more popular like the usual food establishments that our target market always looking and craving for . and we know just giving them a one hot shot consumer will continue to patronize it. * If you read any of the expat boards or sites, one common thread is always present: Where do I find burgers (steaks, pizza, hotdogs) like I had back home? It is natural to crave certain foods that you may remember. Cultural differences and tastes mean that even things that should be outright simple become very different creatures when prepared here. Sweet mayonnaise on a burger. Ketchup on a bright red hot dog. French fries on a pizza. These are all “traditional” foreign foods that are commonly modified to suit local tastes. Yes, expats may complain, but any restaurant here has to serve the consumer with foods that they will like… Army Navy has a nice, quarter pound burger that you can get as a double, or even a triple (Bully Boy burger). 100% beef that is really well-cooked, and very good sesame seed buns. Toppings that are fresh and identifiable. Highly addictive “Freedom Fries”… similar to spicy shoestrings . this is not the usual burger we mostly eat specially here in the Philippines like mcdonalds, Jollibee and...

...The Truth About Philippine Mangoes 04/12/2011 by Vanjo Merano What is the first thing that comes in your mind when you hear the word “Mango”? If you will ask me that question, the first thing that I think of is the Philippines. In my opinion, I can say, Without any doubt, that the best mangoes that the world has ever tasted came from the Philippines. I know people from other mango producing countries will question my statement. However, I am confident to say that there is no other mango out there that can beat Philippine mangoes in terms of sweetness, sourness, size, and weight. I tried almost all the imported mango varieties here in the US — including local mangoes. They all taste different from the original Philippine Mango. There are even varieties here that says “Manila Mangoes” in the sticker, but the taste does not say so. There are many mango varieties in the Philippines. Champagne mango or Carabao mango is probably the most famous in terms of taste. This mango variety is the sweetest mango that I ever tasted. It is also the mango variety that the Philippines export to other countries. There are different strains (breed) produced from Carabao mango — one of which is called Sweet Elena. If I am not mistaken, this breed originated somewhere in Zambales. Sweet Elena mango is the sweetest that I ever had. It is probably the sweetest mango in the world. There are also the well loved Cebu and Guimaras mangoes which are of world class quality. Filipinos enjoy eating mango...
