Dr. Shiva Posted May 22, 2018 Posted May 22, 2018 Most dead people in the traffic in the Philippines are motorcycle drivers and coriders. It is much saver to use a car in the Philippines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do regret the use of the "f" word if that is the only part you find offensive and I apologize that I did not use a less impulsive phrase. In fact I shall edit my response to use a more acceptable synonym. Dave, As the original poster concerning my friend Pauls accident, I never got the impression Lobo was foolishly trolling. Would you kindly elaborate how you came to that conclusion? I'm aware of the details of the accident not mentioned in the article. It appears he misread the article, got the means and time of death wrong but most importantly was not disrespectful. We all have deficiencies and may no longer be as sharp as we were as we age but we should not attack each other. Paul was a friend, enjoyed life and did his best to facilitate good times at his bar for all expats regardless of nationality. I'm certain he would not appreciate seeing other expats attacked in this manner. Edited May 22, 2018 by Rooster 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
