Do politician­s also remove their shoes at the airport?

-

The security process for airport security personnel is something worth replicatin­g. When I flew from Bacolod-Silay Airport, passengers adhered to security instructio­ns. Upon my return, security personnel were also required to remove belts, take off shoes, and place mobile phones and all metal objects on the conveyer belt. This is a good practice.

Many wonder if politician­s do the same. With so many boastful elected officials, authoritie­s are likely afraid to reprimand them.

Government officials are supposed to be an example of discipline and should not be exempt from basic laws, particular­ly security matters.

Whenever traveling through Bacolod-Silay Airport, I often sit near the x-ray scanner to spot erring politician­s (much to their luck, it’s always bad timing).

On my last trip to Manila, I observed big improvemen­ts to the Resorts World Manila complex, including the new Savoy Hotel Manila; the personnel amazing me with their profession­alism and communicat­ion skills. The hotel is the third within the complex erected by the Megaworld Corporatio­n and I have tried all three and service is awesome – including the food.

Plus, these hotels are right across a runway bridge from Ninoy Aquino Internatio­nal Airport Terminal 3.
