    pre, pag summer sobra init dito. umaabot ng 45deg. celcius. pag winter naman malamig din, katulad ngayon nagsisimula ng lumamig pero walang snow dito...malamig lang ang hangin. up to feb siguro ang winter dito. di ako sure kasi saglit pa lang ako dito sa saudi (almost 4 months). pero tama kayo matitindi ang tsikot dito karaniwan ang bmw 7 series, chevrolet lumina, ford lincoln. mura lang kasi ang tsikot dito. at mura din ang gaso :D

    Kita mo nga naman ang buhay! Ang dami na pa lang made in saudi na college na. Sabagay yung iba nga ay graduate na working na rin dito. Pasalamat na lang tayo sa Diyos at may mga trabaho pa kami dito. Ngunit hinde na rin tatagal at mag uuwian na kami. Marami na ang mababa ang sahod at sinisimulan na alisin ang lahat ng expats dito. Saudization at tax ang malaking bagay na magpapatalsik sa atin dito.

    Sa mga sadik, konting tipid at iwasan na muna ang sugal at babae. Gastos na malaki yan dito. Sa Pinas na lang tayo maging magarbo at least bayan natin yan.

    Sa mga anak, i treasure nyo ang pinaghirapan ng magulang ninyo at magpasalamat sa narating ninyo. Hinde namin ninais na manatili dito bagkus kailangan itaguyod ang pamilya at matustusan ang lahat ng pangangailangan ninyo.

    [SIZE="4"]Clark-Saudi flights to start next month[/SIZE]
    By Ding Cervantes
    The Philippine Star 12/06/2006

    [SIZE="4"]CLARK FIELD, Pampanga [/SIZE]— Saudi Arabia-based Tair Airlines will begin its Clark-Riyadh-Jeddah service by mid-January next year, a development that is expected to ease travel for some 1.4 million Filipino workers in Saudi whose families live in provinces north of Manila.

    Clark International Airport Corp. (CIAC) president Jose Victor Luciano said yesterday that the Philippine and Saudi governments have issued the necessary permits and other requirements for Tair Airlines to serve the route.

    "The flights will definitely start on the second week of January," Luciano said.

    The government has estimated that the majority of Filipino workers in Saudi are from northern Luzon provinces.

    Luciano said some 30,000 Filipinos in Saudi wanted to go home for Christmas but could not do so as all flights to the Philippines had already been booked.

    "The new flights of Tair will, although belatedly, afford them the chance to go home. In the next Christmas season, the flights will ease up shortages," he said. Tair will fly four times a week to Diosdado Macapagal International Airport. The Boeing 747 aircraft to be deployed for the service can accommodate 460 passengers.

    Luciano said the new service will not be covered by limitations under Executive Order 500-A since the airlines will fly only between Clark and Saudi Arabia. EO 500-A bars foreign airlines from flying to the Philippines and to another foreign destination.

    Luciano also announced that the P148 million expansion of the DMIA will go full blast in January and will be completed by June.

    "The expansion will enable the airport terminal to accommodate another one million passengers per year in addition to its 1.5 million capacity now," he added.

    "P68 million of the total cost will be for civil works and the remaining P80 million for equipment," Luciano said. The new equipment will include an additional luggage conveyor and an X-ray machine.

    In addition to the new Tair flights, Malaysia-based Air Asia airlines will also fly between Clark and Bangkok by January and February next year, Luciano said.

    Hong Kong Airways will also launch Hong Kong-Clark flights four times a day starting Dec. 10, using Boeing 737 aircraft that can carry 145 passengers.

    DMIA accommodates 77 passenger and cargo flights per week. If EO 500-A is scrapped as urged by some groups in Central Luzon, the number is expected to reach 80 by yearend.

    United Parcels Service, Pacific East Asia Cargo Airlines, and Yangtze River Express are among the cargo airlines operating at the airport.

    As of last August, cargo volume at Clark already reached 11,800 tons, he said

    CIAC vice president Romeo Dyoco reported that the DMIA terminal processed 302,939 passengers from January to August, or an average of 37,867 passengers per month. He noted that in 2005, the average number was only 23,067 passengers per month.

    GOOD NEWS ITO!

    Madi-decongest na yung mga flights to Manila. Iisa lang kasi ang final destination ng Saudi-Manila flights, NAIA lang. Ngayong binuksan na itong DMIA/Clark, mababawasan na ng konti yung passenger load nung Manila flights. Sana magkaroon din ng flights na destination, Cebu and Davao.

    Sang ayon ako sa sinabi mo Bro... dapat pahalagan muna natin ang work natin lalo na bagsak pa rin ang ekonomiya natin... dito sa Saudi, unang una na kailangan mong gawin malalim ang pasensya mo, pangalawa lang ang skills... ang pikon dito, talo... dapat talaga na pahalagahan natin ang kinikita natin...
