Mortgage loans: Singapore and elsewhere

Posted by Culture Shiok! Singapore OFW on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 10:48 pm in Personal - International.

You'll have to agree that anywhere in the world, especially in Singapore, buying a home is probably the single largest investment most people make in a lifetime.

Here in Singapore, financial institutions are permitted to lend up to 80% of the value of a private residential property. Of the balance, 10% must be paid in cash with the other 10% either in cash or through the Central Provident Fund (CPF). A valuation of the property-in-question by an independent surveyor is normally required.

In addition, financial institutions also require that monthly repayments on all loans including housing loans should not be more than 40% of the borrower’s monthly gross income.

Housing loans comes in different forms, some with fixed rates while others are based on floating rates that are pegged to the bank's board rates.

When choosing the right housing loan, you may wish to ask more about:

- match duration
- monthly payment projections
- interest rate comparison
- fees and penalties

By preparing yourself and your credit before a home purchase or refinance, you can ensure a smooth finance process and can potentially save thousands on your loan. Improve your financial profile now so you can take advantage of the low interest rates before they disappear.

Basic knowledge on mortgage loans and refinancing preparations will prove very helpful as rates are always on the rise. Always be a smart borrower and save thousands by preparing your credit before you apply for a loan.

Mooncake in Singapore

Posted by Culture Shiok! Singapore OFW on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 10:17 pm in Personal - International.

It's the time of the year when Singapore is flooded with mooncakes. The Mid-Autumn Festival or Mooncake Festival in Singapore is also a time when some of the fanciest hotels in town seem to be competing for accolades in producing the best mooncake, or rather, best-selling mooncake.

The mooncake is
the traditional food of the festival, of which there are many different varieties. Typical mooncakes are round or rectangular pastries, measuring about 10 cm in diameter and 4-5 cm thick. A thick filling usually made from lotus paste is surrounded by a relatively thin (2-3 mm) crust and may contain yolks from salted duck eggs. They are usually eaten in small wedges accompanied by Chinese tea.

Modern mooncakes differ mainly from traditional types most vividly in the type of fillings that are offered. You can have coffee, chocolate, different types of nuts, fruits and vegetables.

What would you want inside your mooncake?

Kalasag deadline is Today!

Posted by Batang Yagit on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 9:57 pm in Personal - Philippines.

A lot of people were sending sms to me since last night. They were asking for deadline extensions. The subscription deadline was scheduled today. Unlike in other universities, Kalasag, the official yearbook of Ateneo de Davao University, implements a March-release policy in the yearbook-making process. Also, unlike with other schools, Kalasag requires students to pay the subscription fee before their profile gets published in the yearbook. Most schools publish the students profile regardless if they pay or not. Also, payment in other schools are from solicitations. Since Ateneans are not religious in soliciting for advertisers, Kalasag make it to a point that solicitations are optional.

Since the policy that only those students who have subscribed are the ones to be included in the yearbook, a lot of students who have not paid are cramming their way to the finance office today. These students are afraid that they won't get published in this year's yearbook. Thus, they are asking for a deadline.

Kalasag, for the past years, has been implementing strict rules on the graduates. In return, we have provided them a quality yearbook incomparable to the yearbooks produced by other rival schools and universities.

And for the deadline matter, we still have not decided if we will extend it or not. As of now, there are no announcements made by Kalasag. I'm just hoping that no San Diego tax lawyer would come to our office and interrogate us with our policies. Anyway, it has nothing to do with any of his affairs.

The Filipina Paris Hilton: Tamara Falco

Posted by Filipino Cultured - Art Entertainment Culture & Inspiration, Celebrities Movies Music Blog on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 9:34 pm in Entertainment.

Young Filipina fashion designer, Tamara Falco, the 26-year-old second youngest daughter of Isabel Preysler, is recently being hailed as the Paris Hilton of Spain by the media due to her recent TV appearances in which she appears speaking in ... well a rather ditzy voice, which I think is adorable because she reminds me of my own friends from high school, however the media loves to make fun of her accent in Spanish with her problems in diction and the fact that she was born with the silver spoon handed over to her.

Tamara Falco recently released her own line of clothing called Second Skin, and has designed a few dresses for her mother Isabel Preysler and sisters Chabeli and Ana.


-What did you guys think about Hormigas Blancas, the recent TV documentary about your mother? Did you like it Tamara?

Tamara: I watched it for a little while, and then changed the channel.
(laughs)

-So you didn't like it at all?

Julio: Well the life of our mother, we already know it.


-You designed that dress?

Tamara: Well, my company designed it.

-Ah okay. Well, you look very beautiful.

Tamara: Thank you very much!

-Have a good time. Where's your boyfriend?

Tamara: In Madrid.

-Is he studying? Is he working?

Tamara: Today he had a job interview, so let's see if they choose him to start training.

-Are you gonna get married soon Tamara?

Tamara: No not for now. No it's not that I'm scared, it's just that I think I'm still too young. So...I don't know, I'll think about it, I dream about it, it's not something I would rule out all together.

-How long have you two been together?

Tamara: It's gonna be about a year.

But if I had to name a Paris Hilton of the Philippines, it'd probably be Kris Aquino.



It seems that problems in diction run in the family, as Julio Iglesias, Jr. has the same problem as his younger sister Tamara, which makes for extremely entertaining TV viewing. They're so cute.

Gusto ko sanang kumanta ng kantang masaya
Masigla, maligaya, makulay
Ipakita ang diwa ng pagmamahalan
Ngunit iba ang aking nararamdaman kasi

May patayan sa kalye
May naglolokohan sa palengke
Mga batang sabog, mga pulis na tulog
At sari-saring sangkatutak na pulubi

Gusto ko sanang kumanta ng kanta ng pag-ibig
Kasi sa puso ng Pilipino, talagang yan ang himig
Gusto ko sanang kumanta ng kantang malambing
Ngunit sa tuwing sisimulan ako'y naiiling sa

Amoy ng tambak ng basura
Sa kababuyan ng mga kongresista
Mga taong may sakit, mga tiyang namimilipit
Kumakalam walang lamang mga sikmura

Hindi ko kayang kumanta
Ng kanta na pang-crush at pang-syota
Hindi ko kayang pagbigyan ang inyong hinihiling
Mga kantang pampagaan ng inyong feelings

Naiinggit ako kay Ariel
Naiinggit ako kay Regine
Kay Janno't Roselle
Kay Ogie, kay Dingdong
Kay April Boy at kay Martin

Tayo nyo ang kabaong ko ayoko ng selyado
Bigyan nyo ako ng baso at saksakan nyo ng sigarilyo ang aking bibig
Ayaw ko ng mga humahagulgol ayaw ko ng mga hinihimatay
Gusto ko kayo ay masaya at buhay dapat sa party ko ako lang ang patay

Sa aking puntod
Sa gitna ng hardin
San sariwa ang hangin
Haping-happy ang feeling

Suot ko dapat ang aking shades at yung nuclear smiley tshirt ko
Uupa tayo ng magandang lugar at sa tugtugan ang gusto na banda, Parokya ni Edgar

At ang aking huling hiling madaling araw nyo ako ilibing
Habang ibinibaba ang aking kabaong patugtugin nyo ang praning

Sa aking puntod
Sa gitna ng hardin
San sariwa ang hanging
Haping-happy ang feeling

Pagdaan ng ilang taon akong hukayin buksan ang kabaong at tayo'y magpicture taking
Pwede rin tayo mag-picnic di na lang ako kakain
Ilayo nyo 'yang bandehado baka ako humalo sa giniling
Iniwan ko na ang mundo wala na akong problema

Iniwanan ko na ang mundo Wala na akong problema

Bad Start

Posted by A Matter of Perspective on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 6:18 pm in Personal - International.

I woke up with a headache today. I did not get enough sleep last night (as usual) because Erin was keeping us all up. For some reason, she has been having difficulty staying asleep. This continues to puzzle both J and I.

What I do not like about being sleep-deprived is that I get bad headaches during the day. I have had a history with these headaches and have even had terrible migraines when I was still a student. I wish there was a headache treatment for these types of problems. They can be very debilitating at times and I am left helpless.

Shocking news

Posted by HyukTa.net on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 2:57 pm in Personal - Philippines.

One of my Titas (Aunt), Tita Jeanette, was murdered. She was missing for 3 days then her body was found in a hotel. There’s also mysterious phone number found. I don’t know if her family tried calling it. I hope we’ll find out more news on this. I asked Tita Pricilla if she knows what hotel, but she doesn’t. She said that it could have been a 4-5 star hotel.

*sighs* I was supposed to sleep, but now I can’t. This really shocked me. I haven’t seen her in a long time then I hear this. (

Filipino mestizos: A quick thought

Posted by Filipino Cultured - Art Entertainment Culture Celebrities Movies Music & Inspiration Blog on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 5:23 am in Entertainment.

This is just a quick thought that came to me while watching the new Angel Locsin and Richard Gutierrez movie, The Promise. Eloquent sentences always come to me at the most inconvenient times, and it's hard to explain the mestizo filipino in a way that is logical and easy to understand as this thought that came to me, so I thought I'd post this here before I forget it.

Many Filipinos are mestizos and have Spanish blood, most times even without realizing that they're mestizo because the thing is that some Filipinos have more European blood than others, and often, only those Filipinos are referred to as mestizos, although in traditional Spanish speaking society, they would be referred to as castizos or criollos, while those with less European blood, although are mestizos, but are never perceived as mestizos by Filipinos because of that social perception that equates being mestizo with having strong European looks, which is never always the case as most mestizos, just by looking at historic pictures of the first mestizos in the Philippines, real mestizos look like today's normal Filipino, meaning that many Filipinos are mestizos without even realizing it because of the social perception, and also because of the historical stigma associated with having Spanish blood out of marriage (las queridas), which happened a lot in Spanish colonies, and also in the Philippines, which would've urged many Filipinos to hide their Spanish ancestry in the past to avoid the social stigma of being a querida (mistress). It's usually only the officially recognized marriages between Spanish and Malay women that are officially recognized as mestizos, because the difference is, the official marriages had the wedding documents historically to prove it, the out of wedlock mestizos born from queridas didn't, although the Spanish blood in their future children and grandchildren are just as valid and real in those Filipinos.

I know what some Filipino kids here in America who might be reading this must be thinking because as a Filipino kid who grew up here who was always mistakened as a Latino or accused of not being a real Filipino because of the prominence of Spanish ancestry in my face and for not looking "Filipino enough" and from hearing "You don't look Filipino" my entire life, I understand us very well, and I'm personally tired of hearing my fellow Fil-Am kids immediately accuse other Filipinos who engage in a discussion about this aspect of our culture as having colonial mentality. It's not colonial mentality to discuss aspects of your culture with other Filipinos so that you may better understand your own Filipino culture and enlighten yourself.

I personally don't even believe in that term "colonial mentality", because a culture is the result of it's history, period. If a people are influenced to certain beliefs and social influences, whether positive or negative, it's because of the culture they grew up in, but it doesn't mean that they're "infected" with colonial mentality and need to be cured, like many Filipinos often preach about and show in their sentiments. The funny thing about other Filipinos is that they're quick to point fingers at one another and label each other and put each other down as having colonial mentality and all that stuff, but does that actually do any good for our people as a whole? Of course not, it only spreads negativity among Filipinos, and I believe in positivity, enlightenment, and education.

To be ilustrado to me is not to hail your social status at others, but to be iluminated from within, to illustrate yourself as a positive role model for other Filipinos, and that was why I created my webpage 3 years ago in 2004: Ilustrado Filipino Magazine, to counter that negativity I saw among Filipinos and to spread positivity and enlightenment about one's own Filipino culture, which seemed to me the biggest problem among Filipino youth growing up overseas, is that they're not educated enough about their own Filipino culture, so of course that would explain the lack of pride in being Filipino. And we should educate the youth, not only overseas but in the Philippines too, to be proud of their culture and to know as much about it as possible so that they're secure and confident in their beings when they present themselves to the world's society.

Boy, I was always a writer, a quick thought for me always ends up to be multiple paragraphs, but you get my drift my friends. Love you all, Mabuhay!

Boracay as the Next World-Class Destination Hot Spot

Posted by "Travel blogging? Is that thing still around?" on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 4:35 am in Personal - Philippines.


Got this very good news from the website of the Wall Street Journal as the undisputed no. 1 beach destination here in the Philippines, Boracay, is included in the perceived travel hot spots that the worldwide travel industry hopes will become hits to tourists in the coming years. The island is being pitched as a regional vacation spot reinvented for luxury seekers.

Potential visitors are encouraged to go windsurfing or hunt for native puka shells on white-sand beaches. One drawback according to a travel reviewer is travel fatigue after a long flight from Los Angeles, California with a stopover in Manila and a boat ride to the island. For adventurers I know that they don't mind the long travel as to them "half of the fun of travel is getting there."

I believe that various market forces shape a potential travel hot spot. Marketing is a great tool for the national government to promote any part of our beautiful islands. Even after several terrorist attacks in Bali, Indonesia and the tsunami devastation in Phuket, Thailand tourists still flock those beaches as the marketing campaign of their national governments instill that they are still safe and the natural beauty of a particular place haven't been affected by man-made and natural disasters.

There's no terrorism nor catastrophic natural disasters afecting most of our beaches in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao except for seasonal typhoons so there's no reason for Boracay and a number of other great beach destinations in our country not to be known to the rest of the world. With a meager marketing budget of the Department of Tourism the only way now is to fellow Filipinos to promote our country through word of mouth... blogging is a perfect venue for this. Agree?

Post Script: Cebu Pacific and Air Philippines will be commencing their Manila-Caticlan (Boracay)-Manila route by late 2007 or early 2008... More supply = lower price... YEHEY!!!!!

Pinoy Robert Sunga in Live the Dream

Posted by Culture Shiok! Singapore OFW on Friday, September 28th, 2007 @ 1:57 am in Personal - International.

It's back to the office for 30-year-old Filipino landscape designer Robert Sunga. He was eliminated in the Singapore talent search Live the Dream.

Entered in the soloist division, Robert performed the song Superstar by the Carpenters. He was dazzling onstage, in an all white suit, and the audience was clearly captivated by his moving and silky vocals. Though he impressed judge Dick Lee who tagged him the ‘office worker turned superstar’, the votes weren’t impressive enough to save the from elimination.

After the show Robert said, “I still feel great, still on high spirits. I think I lack supporters’ votes, but I still feel grateful to all my fans and supporters.”

“I think I’ll get back to my normal life, get back to the office and do work. For me, it’s been a great experience. If I were in the Philippines, I wouldn’t be in the spotlight like this.”

Unfortunately, I did not have my umbrella with me at that time. And alam nyo naman sa Manila, konteng ulan lang, baha na. I ran for cover and the only place I could find was under a big umbrella owned by one of the vendors. I couldn't get a ride as well because all the jeepneys were full. In short, I was stuck, not to mention I was also soaked to the skin! Di lang yun, when I finally managed to get a ride, super traffic naman. Igot home at around 9pm already and I left my place of work at 4:30 pm pa. My mom was worried sick! Buti di ako nagkasakit after nun. Since then, I have vowed never to leave the house without my umbrella.

Ah yes, what I would give to go on holidays right this instant! Sometimes, we all need to step back, take a break and relax to reenergize ourselves. For me, that time should be anytime soon.

Our trip back home is nearing and going on beach holidays with the entire family is definitely in our agenda. We'll make sure to also consider spa holidays to get ourselves some well-deserved massage! But before we can make all that a reality, we'd need to book us cheap flights first lest we forget. I am so looking forward to this much awaited trip!
