Manila More Than Vanilla

Just left the Philippines. Did you know most Americans spell it as Phillipines?
Manila is cool if you don' t mind the polluted air. Locals blame the smoke on the buses.
I agree.
I met with officials of the Regional Trial Court. Computerisation of their court records is and has been underway for some time now. I was told electronic records date back to 1999.
Still they have paper backup.
One, of a few courts I visted in Metro Manila was Mandaluyong Municipal Court.
My purpose, driving records. Plenty of traffic citations are given out in Manila.
Mandaluyong court records are computerised, too. So are traffic cases.
Traffic is so bad in Manila. Traffic citations are handed out like candy. Most are payable without a court appearance. I don't know their point system.
Also visited Makati RTC, Makati MTC, and Pasay City MTC.
Read more in March edition of The Background Investigator.
