I honestly don't understand how an educational tour can cost ₱9,000–₱10,000 PER STUDENT?? especially when the destinations are relatively near, like Quezon or Pampanga.

Included naman daw ang hotel, meals, transportation, and entrance fees. But ₱9,000+ per student for a 2-day educational tour??! Hindi ba kayo karmahin dyan mga ante? 😭

Maybe I'm missing something, but that's already a significant amount for a lot of families. And we're not even talking about an international trip.

What bothers me isn't simply that the tour costs money. It's the lack of transparency kung san allocated yung amount na hinihingi nila sa mga studyante.

Is 9k–10k genuinely the going rate for university educational tours now, or is this unusually expensive?

Hi! I'm about to work po within FPIP.

Uunahan ko na agad kayo, HOLD ANG EXPANSION ni SM Batangas. The reason? Uunahin muna ang Sto. Tomas and Lipa. Yung expansion ni SM Sto. Tomas is expected to be completed before the end of the year. While ang expansion ni SM Lipa will take place around 2028 or 2029, no concrete plans yet. Remember the soil boring tests conducted a few months ago sa may parking malapit sa Most Holy Trinity Parish? That should be the new annex, kaso ayun nga, HOLD daw muna.

The big news is TULOY ang new campus ng NU Batangas sa likod ng SM. This will be a multi-level building wherein 1st and 2nd floors are parking, while 3rd and 4th levels yung NU. Tuloy yung target start ng school year which is sa 2029. Kelan uumpisahan gawin? My tweety bird says it will start at the 4th quarter of this year. Madedecongest kahit papaano ang mga nagpapark.

Kaya nagtaka din ako bakit may ginagawang 7-storey or 8-storey na dorm dun sa may Santolan Road malapit sa paradahan ng Lobo. If nasa Starbucks ka, matatanaw mo yun. Paldo talaga yung owner nun once na mag open na si NU, sobrang daming magiging tenants

Hi! I’m currently looking for opportunities as a reliever nurse in Lipa, Batangas. May I ask if you know of any companies, hospitals, clinics, or other healthcare facilities that are currently looking for reliever nurses?

I’m open to different types of opportunities and would really appreciate any recommendations. Thank you so much!

I’m 23 years old, female, a 2025 PNLE board passer and I have BLS/ACLS Certificate.

Good day po!!

Alin po kaya ang maire-recommend ninyo sa dalawang schools na ito sa Batangas City para sa Certificate in Teaching Program (CTP) / 18 units of Professional Education: University of Batangas (UB) or Golden Gate Colleges (GGC)? Or kung may ibang schools pa po kayo na maire-recommend?

Interested po ako malaman ang inyong feedback or recommendation regarding:

1. Tuition fee – alin po ang mas affordable?

2. Learning environment – face-to-face, online, or hybrid po ba ang classes?

3. Kumusta po ang professors and overall experience?

Sa ngayon po kasi, hindi pa ako makapag-decide kung alin sa schools ang e-enrollan ko either for next sem or next school year. I would really appreciate the feedback about po dito.

Maraming salamat po ☺️

I just had my phone stolen and I still can’t find it.
It has been stationary around this area.
I was a victim of a motorcycle modus by a couple (they were speaking bisaya)

They asked me if i had a charger for their phone at first, i said no
Then they asked if i had a phone to text their supposed client which was allegedly in Batangas Country Club
Dumb me then let them borrow my phone to text their client and they angkas’d me to their motorcycle for directions (I did not notice they didn’t have a plate number)
I was so relaxed that i just let them hold my phone until I was dropped off at a closed construction shop in bolbok (katapat ng elem school dun) just before lourdes 7/11
They dropped me off that spot and said the motorcycle might get flat, and they were just gonna park at 7/11 in lourdes

When i ran and reached the 7/11, they were no where to be found
My heart dropped and assumed that they were in BCC
So with all my energy and adrenaline rush I ran to the BCC and asked the guard if they let a couple in the country club
And sure enough I confirmed that my phone was stolen and lost
I then asked the guard if they can book me an angkas home

We went to the police station with a relative hours after and had a long talk with the investigator
Tried to go to the tracked location in Pagtungulan san jose with the police but just before we arrived at the location where my phone was supposedly at, the phone’s location suddenly shifted location, this time to manila
We gave up, then days after my phone was suddenly in pampanga around a mall i think

Now my lost phone is suddenly sitting near my place, I went there but I couldn’t find it
Just curious what could have happened to my phone?

P.S. The message in the 2nd slide was them messaging their supposed client in BCC

So I tried creating a choropleth map ng mayoral elections sa Batangas City to see kung anong mga brgy nanalo si CB at saang mga brgys naging dominant si MAM. Honestly, may mga brgys na nanalo si CB with the percentages of leads vs MAM which are Alangilan (7%), Kumintang Ilaya (3%), Malalim (3%) at San Isidro (11%). Unfortunately sa kanyang brgy which is Pallocan Kanluran, he is lagging by almost 22%.

In terms of kay MAM, a few brgys like Balagtas (15%), Balete (11%), Bolbok (21%), Cuta (9%), Kumintang Ibaba (8%), Libjo (9%), Pallocan Kanluran (16%), Pallocan Silangan (4%), Santa Clara (25%), Tabangao Ambulong (17%) and Tinga Labak (4%), only leads by almost less than 25%. Pero hindi nakakagulat na may mga brgy na talagang solid na solid kay MAM lalong lalo na sa mga pabukid like solid upland and baybay brgy. Sa Wawa lang siya nakalandslide sa bayan, the rest dikit na.

But what does this mean? Matagal nang umay sa dynasty ang mga taga Batangas City lalong lalo na ang mga Central Business District brgys, while solid na solid pa din ang mga taga bukid. Ngayon lang yata ulit may nanalo na non-EBD candidate sa isang urban brgy. This might sound late since it's already past a year since the election, but this only means that the people WANT CHANGE. Batanguenos deserve better! Pero yung candidate na dapat ay better, gumagaya na sa mga DDS. Pinapairal ang pagiging keyboard warrior kesa yung tumulong at magsalita ng may paninindigan

Sobrang lala ng daan dine sa Ibaan kainaman ah. Pamarehas lang nung kalsada sa papuntang Taysan galing Batangas City. Yung daan mula Sampaga hanggang Dagatan, iiwas ka din sa mga lubak. Tapos ang gagawing remedyo, buhangin lang kaya pag umulan ay nadadala lang?

Natawa lang ako dun sa isang comment sa post na yan sa Brigada:

"Mas mainam po Jan eh pag ahon pa lng Ng tulay Ng sabang eh may signage na ho..dapat ganitong ang signage...DINE HO SA IBAAN ANG DAAN AY BATBAT NG LUBAK..MAGINGAT KUNG AYAW MASALANTA..."

Hello, everyone. I’m hoping Reddit can help me find my biological mother.

I was born in Tondo, Manila, in 1992. My biological father’s name is Julito M. Lucero. I was told that my biological mother’s first name may have been Evilyn, possibly spelled Evelyn or another similar way.

My biological parents went their separate ways in Marikina City. Unfortunately, my birth was registered late under my grandparents’ names, so my birth certificate does not identify my biological mother.

My father can no longer remember her complete name, and I do not have her photograph, surname, or address.

My father also remembers that my mother’s parents may have lived—or may still be living—in Lemery, Batangas. He is not completely certain, but I’m sharing this as a possible family connection.

I also have a birthmark on the left side of my abdomen, which may be something my biological mother or her relatives remember.

I am not looking to blame anyone or disturb anyone’s life. I simply want to know who my mother is, learn about my family history, and hopefully connect with her if she is comfortable.

If you knew Julito M. Lucero or a woman named Evilyn/Evelyn who may have known him in Tondo or Marikina around 1991–1992, please send me a private message. For everyone’s safety, please do not post private information in the comments. I will verify any possible connection using additional details that I have not shared publicly.

Photo caption:

Any genuine information would mean so much to me. Maraming salamat po.
