  1. Paki imbestigahan po ang ginawa ng SBMA Government sa Subic na nag approved ng LUMPSUM RENT/LEASE SCHEME sa karamihan ng mga Locators nila. Sa biglaang bayad na renta na katumbas lang ng 4 or 5 taon (at Current Lease Rate) eh bayad na agad ng 50 YRS NA RENTA ang isang Locator. Sobrang Lugi po ang estado ng Pilipinas sa ginawa nilang deal na ito last year or bago mag National Elections. Nagtitiwala po na bubusisiin ito ng National Gov't.

Resigning? SSS Will Deduct Your Loan Balance from Your Last Pay

I just learned about this a few months ago when my company announced a workforce reduction program. Among the sad discussions is about this policy of SSS regarding loans in cases of resignation or retrenchment. Section G-2 of the SSS Loan Terms and Conditions (at the back of the loan application form) explicitly says the following: "The employer shall deduct the total balance of the loan from any benefit/s due to the employee and shall remit the same in full to SSS, in case the member-borrower is separated voluntarily (e.g., retirement or resignation) or involuntarily (e.g., termination of employment or cessation of operations of the company)." In other words, y ou will be required to pay the rest of your loan (including the interest) when you change employer or employment statu

How Much Does a MRI Scan Costs in the Philippines?

My dad needs a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan for his prostate problem. I did a little research on how much does it cost to have one. Well, it depends on many factors, such as which body part is to be scanned. There's also this technique called "MRI with contrast," wherein the patient will be injected with a chemical to make the scan clearer. For your information, this technique of adding contrast is known as  Gadolinium Contrast Medium . It adds cost to the procedure, but with more clarity, the more you can trust the diagnosis.

We got it in  i-Scan Healthcare Inc.  here in Quezon City. The cost is  13000 Pesos . Please take note that the amount was just for the scan, and a separate professional will read the result.
