Bankruptcy

         It is sad to see beautiful establishments closed because of bankruptcy. There is a famous hotel here in Davao that all of a sudden shuts down. Every time I passed by on this tall building I couldn't stop myself from wondering how this thing happen. Maybe the management did not handle it well that a Bankruptcy Lawyer was already been called. The hotel was one of the highest hotels and operating well. My boss had been a former employee there and he relayed to us that although the hotel is earning well it did not be able to cope up with it expenses and was affected by the increasing dollar exchange rate. The hotel had not been able to pay its employees on time and had been  delayed in paying by six months. 
         In any business, filing for bankruptcy is the last resort in saving what is left. When a business or a person cannot anymore repay its debts, a legal proceeding which is bankruptcy is done. A bankruptcy petition is commonly filed by debtor or sometimes on behalf of the creditors. A Bankruptcy Attorney should be consulted in handling the whole process.  With Bankruptcy Attorneys, it would be easy for the company to handle the legal papers and answer the issues raised by affected parties. Bankruptcy is usually filed by debtors because it would give them a chance to start fresh by relieving them from their debt obligations as well as offer the creditors a chance to obtain their repayment based on the assets available. Some of the implications of   filing for bankruptcy are losing control of assets, cannot act as company director, cannot trade in any business without informing persons concerned of the bankruptcy and publicly examined in court . But when the whole process of bankruptcy is completed, the debtor would be now free from its obligations and could start a new company free from liabilities.

Land Trip from Manila to Davao

            It was a long trip that took two days and two nights of travel. We had been able to have a land trip from Manila to Davao because my companions bought new cars and preferred to transport the cars by having a land trip than shipped it. From Manila to Davao, we had been able to sail in two ferry boats, pass by to different cities, travelled miles of road and pass the three parts of the Philippines, from Luzon, Visayas and to Mindanao.       Our travel started specifically from Paranaque, Manila and we don't have a map with us but we make sure to look for signboards. From Paranaque, we took the SLEX road to Calamba and to Batangas. We pass by San Jose and San Pablo City. Then, we entered the Quezon Province and pass by the municipalities and cities of Candelaria, Sariaya, Lucena City, Quezon Forest Park, Gumaca, Lopez, and Caluag. The most unforgettable road on this part is the Quezon Forest Park which is a DENR preserved park. Mt. Mayon       We then ent

     This is Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center or also called Palawan Crocodile and Nature Park. It is located in Palawan City that if you would be staying within the city, it is very much accessible. You would only have to ride  a tricycle, which is the number one means of transportation in Palawan City,  and you would be able to reach this place.      Yup,that's me, facing my fear and holding a baby crocodile. We have this session while waiting for our time to enter the crocodile facility and the park. Well this picture taking session is not free, this is worth twenty pesos and if you want to purchase a copy of the picture it is worth around 150-200 pesos.       This is what welcomes you inside the facility where a short orientation is to be given by the staff. This crocodile is used to be the largest crocodile captured in the Philippines, not anymore because of the captivity of Lolong. These are fresh water crocodiles around four to six year
