I dont agree with Hongkong. I've been to hongkong a few times myself. There are not bad people though they really dont practice customer service specially sa ilang hotel. Panda Hotel in particulars, the crew yell at you too. Murag way respeto ang hotel crew sa customer. But they are not worse than Singapore.

OT - Hong Kong might not be the no. 1 but it's way up there.Â* Even their tourist guides will advise you not to buy camera specially cameras-Â* in HK. My friend and his wife got duped - long story but suffice it to say - they paid for something they didn't want to buy.Â* Most if not all have no training in customer service.Â* And I read a store sign that is addressed to Filipinos na it's fixed price so no haggling or words to that effect. Gi single out man ta.Â* And never ever give your money or credit card without even looking at the merchandise.Â* Better if you already have the item with you before paying.Â* And make sure you check if it's the right one- the model, design, the color -check for any defects etc.
If you buy electronics na item and have it delivered to your hotel - be sure the store has the sticker of the merchants association cause no matter what you do later- if you got a raw deal- you'll get nowhere cause the authorities will only say - the store is not a member therefore they have no jurisdiction. always buy expensive items like watches, cellphones, etc from authorized dealers.Â* if it's too good to be true re the price. it is.
Got lots of interesting stories to tell over the years i've been to Hk.Â* Nice place to shop and eat good food. But be sure you'll leave with nice & happy memories instead of sad & bad.

we should be proud instead of bickering and complaining why cebu was not included. grow up people.

... funny. absolutely funny. of course they are courteous coz the people doing the surveys are americans. manila is always kiss-arse with americans. but they discriminate people coming from the other provinces of the philippines. they always belittle bisaya people. Now, is that being courteous

yes true manila discriminate bisaya bisag gali mga tagalog speaking nga nagpuyo sa mga outskirts and provinces of luzon ilasad gidiscriminate....pero at least positive news na nga courteous pa diay ta...pero i think mas courteous ug friendly and mga bisaya...
