The Philippines is a very beautiful country. It is has various creatures and plants. We Filipinos are known to be hospitable and very friendly. The Philippines is one of the most bio diveresd countries in the world. The Philippine Islands became a Spanish colony during the 16th century; they were ceded to the US in 1898 following the Spanish-American War. In 1935 the Philippines became a self-governing commonwealth. Manuel QUEZON was elected president and was tasked with preparing the country for independence after a 10-year transition. In 1942 the islands fell under Japanese occupation during World War II, and US forces and Filipinos fought together during 1944-45 to regain control. On 4 July 1946 the Republic of the Philippines attained its independence. The 20-year rule of Ferdinand MARCOS ended in 1986, when a "people power" movement in Manila ("EDSA 1") forced him into exile and installed Corazon AQUINO as president. Her presidency was hampered by several coup attempts, which prevented a return to full political stability and economic development. Fidel RAMOS was elected president in 1992 and his administration was marked by greater stability and progress on economic reforms. In 1992, the US closed its last military bases on the islands. Joseph ESTRADA was elected president in 1998, but was succeeded by his vice-president, Gloria MACAPAGAL-ARROYO, in January 2001 after ESTRADA's stormy impeachment trial on corruption charges broke down and another "people power" movement ("EDSA 2") demanded his resignation. MACAPAGAL-ARROYO was elected to a six-year term as president in May 2004. The Philippine Government faces threats from three terrorist groups on the US Government's Foreign Terrorist Organization list, but in 2006 and 2007 scored some major successes in capturing or killing key wanted terrorists. Decades of Muslim insurgency in the southern Philippines have led to a peace accord with one group and an ongoing cease-fire and peace talks with another

Explain the general flow in rooming a guest?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

This is a rather simplistic euphemistic way of acknowledging that a room, or a grade of room, has been assigned to an arriving guests.

Hotels, just as with the airlines, sometimes deliberately 'oversell' their hotel. This means, if your hotel has 100 rooms, you may accept reservations each night for up to 101-105 rooms, anticipating that there will most likely be a number of last minute cancellations, no shows, etc.

Finalising your daily balance of number of available rooms, against the number of reservations you have, 'the act of 'rooming' suggests you've examined each reservation, considered any pertinent information, such as whether the guest is a long-standing return guest, who deserves to be upgraded at all costs, or is a member of a frequent-guest programme which mandates a higher quality room above the level reserved, etc., And that you've ensured that your most important guests (they're ALL important!), has their room waiting for check-in. (this includes ensuring flowers, candy, or any other amenities the guest wants, such as foam or feather pillows, additional towels, preferred views, floor level, etc).

One you've 'roomed' all your guests, you can see how many remaining rooms you have available against the number of reservations you have. It may be that you're placed in a position where you're delicately having to balance (and pray) that some may not arrive, that out of service rooms are put back into service, and late check-outs are hastily cleaned to accommodate the number of remaining 'un-roomed' guests awaiting your attention.

How much do plane tickets cost for a flight from England to the Philippines?

User Avatar

Asked by Caj108

There are no direct flights from the Philippines to Ireland. So in order to get to Ireland you would have to fly to somewhere else and then on to Ireland. You may even need 3 or more flights, depending on your route. As there is a wide variety of options and many different airlines and all sorts of other things to consider like the time of year, the class you want to fly in and other things, there is no specific answer to the question.

There's this beach called Boracay and it's really popular because it's the only beach in the Philippines that has white sand. The resorts are amazing, some are even 5 star resort.

There are loads of activities their.

Go check it out and book your holiday on the cheapest resort in the Philippines so go there and have fun.

CORRECTION:

How can you say Boracay is the ONLY beach in Phil that has white sand?

The country is made of thousands of islands. Boracay is just the most commercial for tourist money. Realistically there are thousands of much nicer places with much more spectacular beaches. One thing is for certain and that is you can always rely on the internet to get the most amount of inaccurate assumptions and misinformation made by people who have no idea what they are talking about. Thanks anyway.

How cagayan de oro got its name?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The name Cagayan can be traced back during the arrival of the Spanish Augustinian Recollect friars in 1622, the area around Himologan (now Huluga), was already known as Cagayan.

In fact, early Spanish documents in the 1500s already referred to the place as Cagayan.

Former Congressman and Vice President of the Philippines Emmanuel Pelaez appended de Oro to Cagayan, which is a combination of the ancient Malayo-Polynesian and Spanish languages that translates to "City of the River of Gold".
