Manila International Book Fair goes to SMX
The 29th Manila International Book Fair (MIBF), the biggest and longest-running book fair in the Philippines gets even bigger as it moves to the SMX Convention Center, the country’s newest and largest exhibition and convention center.

This is to inform everybody that applicants for USA as housekeepers mostly do not have sufficient work experience and their certificate of employment are mostly faked. they only used this as a scapegoat to enter US and leave their employers to work for another jobs. their respective recruitment agencies are also encouraging them to have faked documents and the stupid consuls approved mostly the faked applicants instead of the more qualified a lot of maybe its time for US embassy to please invistigate this practice. they should ask the applicant a copy of SSS records from the SSS and not from their company represents because some hotels sell also their certificate of employment with the connivance of applicants.
