Despite the crowded population, heavy traffic jams and hazy skies, I wouldn't mind to make yet another trip back to "The Paris of the East" - Manila. People there are friendly, helpful and the varieties of food are simply amazing. Communication is not so much of a problem as most Filipinos speak English but occasionally a bit of sign language helps. The City of Makati, one of the 17 cities that make Metro Manila, is a must visit place where you can buy good quality international brands, very much similar to Orchard Road in Singaopore I would say.

Heavy loaded overhead cable is commonly seen even at bigger city area |
Security scan before entering most hotels, shopping malls and other public areas |

Jeepney that comes with style |
