    [quote=cye_x_plode;951521]Dear Readers

    I would like to share to you my traumatic experiences in Greenhills, Me and my fiancee went to National Bookstore (besides western at the back of promenade )to gift wrap our gifts for upcoming wedding , There are only 3 slots for customer parking and all of them are occupied, my wife said lets inquire about the rates for the giftwrapping , My fiancee is 2 months pregnant so I have to accompany her inside and park my car diagonally, we went inside inform the guard please watch our car and we will just inquire inside, while inside the store , after 5 mins the customer service announce that to the owner of plate number XXX-XXX Please attend to your car immediately , when im about to go back outside , the guard told that my car was clamp already, I said to the guard did I told that im inside , But the guard replied the Clampers (I called them Ugok!!) already clamped my rims. They are too fast, when I attend to my car that I received a neon red card said call this number (The Barangay Greenhills) to Pay 1,000 pesos, My so shock what happen it took about 5 mins to register my mind , I took my wallet and I saw I have only one hundred pesos my God, so I went back to the store call that barangay and that guy (I think his an Kagawad , no english speaker what so ever that said they will send the guy to deliver me a receipt, I was trying to explain that i was there not less that 5 mins, but They have ONLY HAVE A SCRIPT saying "sIR...wala tayo magagawa" what a waste of Saliva..

    Come on Guys! Give the TS' a break. He maybe wrong in what he did, but at least it will serve as a warning to those of us who are not familiar with the way traffic enforcers do their job in that area.

    You may not agree with me, but I believe, the TS' tried his best to convey what he experienced. English is not our mother tongue, so please dont be too hard on somebody who is not so well versed in using the language. At least he tried....:peace:

    true... pero ang lakas niya manlait ng iba "no english what so ever."

    pot calling the kettle black?

    ako, sobra na akong traumatized sa towing in makati (i've never been towed, but i've seen it happen to so many people) that i am extremely, extremely paranoid and law-abiding.

    isn't that what we want? people are law-abiders?

    pasalamat nga tayo the fines here aren't like in Singapore... S$500 for eating or bringing durian on the subway. Or Hong Kong... HK$5000 for smoking in public.

    Kung ganun yung mga fines natin dito,

    1) everybody would instantly become law-abiders
    2) the huge fines could be used to upgrade the salaries of enforcers so that they don't need to resort to corruption

    And just because you committed a violation, it doesn't mean whoever is enforcing the rules can just treat you with no respect or they do not have to do their job well (stalling, being inefficient, etc.).

    In LA, the parking enforcers are quite polite when dealing with motorists. Even in the downtown area near skidrow (the bad neighborhoods).

    No question there.. enforcers here in the PH are teh suck!

    I don't like the TS' sense of outrage and entitlement, though.

    It's given that you will have a bad experience if you run afoul of local enforcement. And I would definitely not give in kung pineperahan lang ako with invented violations.

    But in this case? the TS was parked illegally! while it's true that 5 minutes lang yun, any amount of time is still illegally parked.

    Tayo kasi, enforcers are normally a bit lenient, kaya hindi tayo natututo. Pero just because they are lenient most of the time, doesn't allow us to yell bloody murder if they suddenly decide to be strict.

    That said, like in Makati for example, takaw talaga sa violations. So you have to be extra-careful and law-abiding.
