most courteous immigration officer

[K.I.L.L.]

I was recently in HK and saw that the immigration area at the airport was holding a poll as to who is their most courteous immigration officer. If a poll were to be held in Manila, it would be as to who is the most disrespectful and impolite immigration officer. They're quite rude especially the ones I see who transact with people leaving the Philippines.

Dapat lang na mag-poll sila ng ganyan sa HongKong,- balasvb*s ang kanilang mga Immigration Officers.

B*stos pa,- may naiwanan lang na matchbox na kotse ang anak kong maliit sa bulsa ng pants niya,- akala mo may malaking issue na sila,- e di kapkapan nila ulit???... Tumigil lang ang talak ng bruhang Immigration Officer (hawak pa ang passports namin), nang sumabat na ako kung ano ang problema nila....

T*ngn* ninyo,- sobrang baba ang tingin ninyo sa mga Pinoy....

I have not encountered any rude immigration officer. I don't travel often though. The Filipino immigration officers are nice naman. Although in my most recent travel there was one person that they were interrogating and she had to show a consularized document. I dunno what that was all about.

Pero sa HK madaming bastos, hindi lang sa immigration

I've encountered ruder immigration officers in KL and Singapore.
In the mid 90's I was sent to KL, the officer asked for my, "Ritatiki".
I said, "i'm sorry, what's a ritatiki?"
Then the officer went ballistic -- RITATIKI! RITATIKI! A security officer approached me and whispered, "Where is your return ticket to Manila. Please give it to him."
Then I gave him my "ritatiki". Then he held the ritatiki to my face like you would a 100$ bill. And he said, "This is RITATIKI. Next time remember! "

dito naman sa Africa madalas ang tingin sa pinoy ay intsik. pag-abot mo ng passport ang tanong agad, "Hey, Chinaman! no English? pagsagot mo ng No! i'm from the Philippines...sunod na tanong naman ay..."what did you bring for me?"

based on my experience Australia is the most courteous. Bastos naman ang taga HK grrrrrr

In HK, pick the line with the female immigration officer. They are usually more pleasant.

In general, expect French, korean and Singaporeans to be rude

It's gonna be tough to judge who will it be as HK is not noted for their courtesy. So goes to the majority of the immigration officers in this country or else where. However, there's always some exception to the majority thus a handfull i can say i've encountered in here and 1 time in SF.

Pag walang pila sa counter, maLayo ka pa, kumakaway na.....nakangiti pa.

di na uso yang ipit-ipit na yan.

immigration officer sa naia di naman rude, strict lang sila pag mukhang dh o papuntang middles east. at meron din naman kasi magtu-tourist daw sa singapore e halata naman sa orchard towers o peoples' park ang punta.

pinakabastos na nakita ko sa malaysian side sa johor bahru (yung in between singapore and malaysia). talaga naman pag pilipina at indonesiana ang baba ng tingin kahit na totoong professional yung tao at magcro-cross border lang para ma-extend ang visa habang di pa nakakakuha ng working visa either sa singapore or malaysia. meron ako nakita minsan pinay nagwala at gustong sapukin ng kanyang prc ID yung imigration officer kasi sabi ng officer pahipo ng puday bago stamp ng visa. lumapit yung visor at yun ang nag-stamp, pero tatawa-tawa lang naman di man lang pinagalitan yung nasa counter.

Kinasuhan ang isang IO dahil sa pagiging arogante



"Nang makarating sila sa mesa ng nakatalagang opisyal, isang lalaking nakasuot ng black jacket ang lumapit sa kanila at sinigawan sila ng “Hoy! For interview ka ba? Bakit nandito ka? Dun ka, dun ka! Doon ka sa dulo umupo! At huwag kang humarap dito!”
Gayonman, nagtimpi aniya siya at magalang na sinunod ang utos at naupo sa silyang malayo sa mesa. Naghintay aniya tawagin siya habang nag-oobserba at nakikinig kung paano tratuhin ng lalaki ang kanyang misis. Makaraan ang 15 minutong interview ay nakita niyang umiiyak ang kanyang misis kaya nilapitan niya ang opisyal at tinanong.”Bakit po sir? Ano po ba ang problema?”"

gago talaga mga HK immigration, I've been going to HK since I was in grade school, every year 2-3X a year. bastos talaga mga yan, although never experienced it myself pero nakikita ko mga ibang pinoy na halos kainin ng buhay lalo na pag babae yun pasahero.

in OZ, US wala pa rin ako na experienced na bastos na IO

Never pa rin naman ako nabastos pero discriminated talaga PH passport compared to other passports from 1st world countries.

The trick is scan for the friendly, smiling immigration officer, usually pretty younger female, before lining up. They are probably thinking about their boyfriend rather than giving you a hard time, haha.

Check also how fast they process each traveller. There are some who do a quick 3-second look at the passport before stamping it.
