In America and depending on the state, if you walked in on a cheating spouse and killed them on the spot or caught them directly afterwards, things are the same. As long as it's not planned and you are surprised, you can claim temporary insanity. There is a human condition where people may lose control. Some of it is real and some not. But with a lawyer, you can get off.
@@DrsIrHenkJanJansen They're just using hypothetical examples of what could happen. They're not saying this happens all the time. But why would the police ask you if a girl had given her consent unless a girl filed a complaint against you? Unless you saying a woman filed a complaint against you and the police never questioned you.
This video is really making me think twice about even coming too the Philippines. I was considering investing in a filipino friend and retiring there. I was going to build a recording studio and produce a female filipino group to market in the UK and USA. Now I'm concerned that I could end up a target. Thank you Filipina Pea.
No need to worry, Kym, it’s really no worse than anywhere else. Just be polite, don’t fool around with married women, stay out of drunken brawls and you should be fine 😊
@@TheFilipinaPea it sounds like it is actually better there than here in the U.S. a woman can completely fabricate an allegation of rape and the guy will be arrested with no evidence. Then he has to defend himself.
I was surprised that your friend is a lawyer because she looks so young but she definitely answers your questions like a lawyer haha..You asked her some great questions and it is so helpful....I love your channel and you haha
I may have to reconsider the Philippines after watching this video. There are some really scary laws that can have a horrible impact on foreigners. Some of these laws are insane!
Yes! A great many laws in the Philippines are just tragically ridiculous and unfair, and, unfortunately, reflect the religious immaturity of a kind, but (primarily) poorly educated third world population that badly needs to revise laws and thinking that is based upon long-ago discredited sections of the bible, in order to be taken seriously as a respected member of the free world in the 21st century. Can people navigate around this craziness and corruption? Of course they can, and many will prefer it. Money talks, bribery can work, and if they "flip a coin" they may even find out who their next mayor will be. A country where you could be sued for libel and lose in court for telling the truth about a politician"s evil deeds and nasty character...who would have believed it?? I don"t believe that all this does justice to the great majority of fine people who live in the Philippines, so wondering if significant change is on the way?..While I do hope so, I also rather doubt it.
I had my first visit there with my Filipina wife last November I was so comfortable and happy with your beautiful country and the people were so kind and hospitable I love Philippines cannot wait to return when this pandemic is over with 🙏❤️🇵🇭 The police officers were very kind to me I approached an armed soldier in Baguio city and said hello to him and he shook my hand and was very kind ✌️😊
I agree myFilipino wife Visit to Philippines and my 3 kids My wife is From Davao . My philippine wife and my kids we live in Northern California Pass Sacramento. This was the best choice I've ever made getting married to a Filipino woman. I'm married here 2006 she was 29 at the time time I was almost 50. We've been married for 16 years She is Medical assistant I'm retiredFrom my University . I cannot hardly wait to go back to the Philippines Is to visit her family. My wife's family is so nice I love her family .My wife is 44 years old I'm 65.
You're not the only one. Date a girl that's married but lied about it and end up going to jail. She has too much and says yes, then cries rape. Date a girl with kids who steps away for a minute and someone complains and you go to jail. Say something someone doesn't like, go to jail. These law a just absolutely ridiculous.
You guys all need to visit temporarily for six months or so before making your decision. If THIS video is causing you doubt, trust me when I say there are 1000 other things that you haven't even THOUGHT OF yet, any of which could be a deal breakers for some people. There are a LOT of nice country options in the region, so make sure you "date" a few before you "marry" one. Seriously.
@@TheRTM, yeah, that was a little loosely interpreted. Not an exemption, but a acquittal. It's not automatic, all this has to come out in court. But if successful? With a good lawyer, you could pull that off almost anywhere.
Attorney Grace was AMAZING! Quite educational! This video should be REQUIRED VIEWING for all newbie foreigners planning to live here. Thanks Grace & Thanks Pea!!!
They dont mention it. But on tv was said that if you go with a married filipina and her husband files a case under adultery u can get 12 years in prison
Wow 😳! Thanks Pea, for making sure us foreigners know this stuff! This doesn’t stop me from coming to the Philippines one day. It’s just now I know a bit better on do’s and don’ts from a legal aspect.
Watching videos of what is happening in NYC lately, with scooters and crime and wholesale crime happening all time, NYC may be a good place to avoid, particularly with the influx of crimminals from other countries.
Here in the states the saying goes: Come on vacation, stay on probation. Never got into legal trouble on holiday (stateside or abroad) but a reality show called "Locked Up / Banged Up Abroad" is enough reason to stay on the good side of the law.
What a truly illuminating video...knowledge is power......I for one have benefitted from your advice.......and now am engaged in constructive dialogue with my filipina friend who is an unmarried mother....
This video is absolutely worth a million dollars! I very much appreciate all the info in order to protect myself & follow the law when I visit. Many many thanks for taking the time & effort to make this 👍👍
Very informative and the last five minutes had me falling out my chair!!! Thank you! I needed that!!! I've been talking to a lovely lady for about ten days, but if this turns into something really interesting, I think I may spring for a plane ticket and fly her to me. And IF that turns into something permanent then I will go there to visit with her as my tour guide.
Definitely agree with not acting superior or being arrogant. Being respectful and considerate is a big deal in their society. Once was in the province hanging out with my wife's relatives at the front of their house when the local "gangster" showed up wanting to introduce himself to me. I had him sit down with us, we had a few shots of tequila, and chatted for about 30 min. And as he left, I gave him a bottle of tequila. He was so happy, he told me that if anyone around town gave me any trouble, to say that I know him personally....lol So for the price of a $10 bottle of tequila, I made a new "friend". Easier to catch more flies with honey!
THIS LADY HAS SUCH A CHARMING, UPBEAT AND OUTSTANDING PERSONALITY. SHE IS VERY INTELLIGENT AND FUNNY, SO FUNNY THAT AT THE END OF THIS VIDEO I FOUND MYSELF LAUGHING OUT LOUD. THANKS!!
Been all over the Philippines, Manilla, Palawan to Boroci to name a few, on many occasions. Never seen or had any trouble. Great Country and people. Thanks Pea!
This exact thing happened to me a couple years ago. I was picked up at Cebu airport by a cute girl who I'd met on DIA. We spent the next 5 days together and it was great! Well, little did I know that she had a local (expat American) older boyfriend. After I returned to the USA, she filed a criminal affidavit against me for rape and kidnapping (!!). I wouldn't have heard about it except that the old guy (who it turned out was really behind the whole thing) sent me a hostile email pointing out the same. I hired a lawyer on Mactan to run over to the courthouse and see if there was an action against me. Indeed there was. It took me 8 months and $3000 to get the charges dropped. What a ridiculous country!!!
SERIOUSLY? Oh my god! Then let that be a warning to you guys - make sure the girl you’re chatting with has her CENOMAR, and you still must be very very careful!!!!!!! I’m so sorry, Patrick!
Foreign gentlemen, it doesn’t matter you’re not looking for trouble, troubles are seeking you 😇 But keep being positive, a fair skinned and blue eyed Christian is not illegal here. American fellows should not complain of their legal rights in the U.S. - you have at least the right to own a home (a land with a house) and have a job, something generally you don’t have in the Philippines 😎
Hi. I like these videos with the lawyer. I work in a law office, so my interest is professional and personal. All of this video is fascinating. I like the that this attorney help with the police report. I have visited the Philippines. From my experiences, I think Foreign Nationals are treated differently, both good and bad. She is right when she says there is a language barrier and that gives the edge to the native speaker. The police don't seem to go out of their way to harass me and are often pleasant. The most unfriendliest police encounters have been in Cebu. The nicest police were in Bacolod. I think respecting their office and remaining calm is key for a good outcoming. Thank you for all the videos you do! Take care.
yea, i love ya Pea, but from your other videos, you was building up your people as being different from the U.S.A. and almost had me wanting to come your country to find a woman, but this video just told me, it is no different in your country for us American men, so staying SINGLE and in our own COUNTRY, is really the best for us American guys to do, thank you
I am new to your channel and I recently joined a Philippine dating site but I am not a member yet of the site. I decided to check out some utube sites and learn a little about what I'm getting into. My name is Jose but everyone calls me Joe. This is all very informative information. Thank you Pea. I wish you well on your channel and lifes endeavors.
Okay BIG tip guys. stay local in your Barangay parish, get to know the local police, in my cane just outside cebu city the police come around my house and eat and play on my play station somtimes 5 at a time, even I am back in the UK my mahal knows them all , I know some, there great, myself and my mahal are also patched up in a big MOTOR BIKE Filipino club, what I am trying to say keep in with the Filipinos, be humble and kind, do not back-chat them and shout etc, it is 100% who you know in the Philippines please trust me on this, do not take drugs there BIG mistake for you, do not drink and drive there, I say this again learn TAGLOG ..31 + years on and off in the Phils, so I know what I am saying..
All right Miss Pea... I don’t agree with your lack of religious values expressed. But I will subscribe to your channel because of your honesty. I’ve been married 10 years to a Filipina who I adore fully, but your truthfulness has let me know some things I didn’t know. Some of the things you have told me that I have told her , She just smiles because you hit it right on
Hey Pea, thank you for having this Attorney on your video. Very helpful information. I look forward to visiting the Philippines someday after covid is over. What I find ironic about westerner men , especially American men worried about being arrested in the Philippines , is how easy it is to be arrested for domestic violence or a any sexual offense without any evidence. In many states an accusation becomes evidence. A man can be handcuffed, finger printed, mug shot and spend the night in jail. If there was no evidence they release you from jail but the dismissed charge remains on your record. The rationale for this draconian legal action is supposedly to teach the man that domestic violence will not be tolerated. What really is bad is if the woman later admits that she lied. The courts will not punish her because they will think its part of the “battered woman syndrome” American Men worried about arrest in the Philippines should consider they are at much more risk of jail in America. From what I have learned about a Filipinas , most are very honest and would never lie as would many American women do. In summary, an American man can be arrested for “domestic drama”in many American states. Thank you for this video and your attorney friend 🙏🏽
As far as the subject goes for a married filipina being with a new guy, check the dating sites there are a ton of "separated" filipinas. Thanks for the heads up.
These videos are great, I have no idea why they were recommended but I'm legit thinking of moving to the phillipines/going on an extended holiday there. Good work Pea!
Enjoy your videos. I'm learning a lot about Filipino woman. And your country. Always been interested in Filipino woman. Thank you for your time and your videos. Keep it going.
I spoke with many Phillippine women and the majority of those I spoke with told me that they are widows, I am concern but at the same time I love the Phillippine country and the people, why so many widows, am a bit nervous.
@@TheFilipinaPea I've seen both of these, destroy peoples lives. I don't want to sound boring, but I would rather take my partner on a "survival" camp out, and hunt/forage for food, build a primitive shelter, and enjoy a fire, started by primitive means with her, ANY day as opposed to drinking until someone is drunk, or worse. I don't do "threesomes". That is, I'm dating HER, not HER, and Al (cohol). I can't stand the smell of alcohol on my date/wife/etc.
Great info. Really have to worry about all the kurakot diyan. As for family members, learn to cut them off is my strategy. Accountability seems rare today.
I love this country,the law is wonderful there . I wish Trinidad and Tobago can follow in footsteps of these laws. I will really like to visit one day.
Hello. Wow. I was possibly thinking of retiring to the Philippines but after watching this video I'm having second thoughts now. Don't get me wrong. I do respect the people and their culture and it's a beautiful country. However, I'm somewhat discouraged now. Pea, I do enjoy your videos and you provide alot of useful information. Thank you. - James
👍👍👍👍👍 5 thumbs up like 5 stars. This video is fun, very interesting, and informative about the LAWS in the Philippines. Highly recommend everyone watch!
Attorney Gracelyn is very intelligent ,very knowledgeable and very beautiful. Remember guys she is stating the law as she has been trained and of course corruption still goes on like many countries.
Pea I have not had any seizures for many years ago I can’t even remember. And I am a happy person no trouble in my history. Have been in secure facility’s that screen pretty well. On other Islands never heard about the epilepsy being a travel issue as long as you are healthy and safe and take medication with you. I was told that I could wean off mine since I have not had issues for years but I chose not to as long as I drive.
What I find incredibly amazing here is that you seem to know your Bible very well 19:10, you are right, it came from The Bible and this is one of many laws that THE MOST HIGH GOD gave to The Israelites while they were in the Wilderness, during the early days of their Pilgrimage out of Egypt. Now you've really captured and Secured my attention to your channel, and everything you are saying is welcomed information and very entertaining, I am intrigued, I don't know your professional Background or qualification, but you are definitely brilliant and charismatic ! You remind me of my 7th grade and Home Room Science teacher, She was Filipina.
Well am black , am American ..And whenever I go to Manila on business trips ,I noticed that Filipinos kept looking at me as I walked through the streets .. some laughed while looking at me , others seemed frightened especially when I walk by them ... it was weird because many Filipinos do it all the time . They stair at you
Most laws in the Phils are founded in common sense. If you behave well, you won't have a problem. Keep in mind that, if you do have a legal problem there, many incidents can be negotiated with the law enforcement officer. When that can't happen, have your lawyer consult with the family as most often they will accept a reasonable settlement to forgive you (you MUST have them sign off that the issue is settled permanently). Lastly, your lawyer can often negotiate something creative with the judge. Fortunately I have never had a single issue in the Phils however some foreigners "loose their heads" when they get there and think that they are invulnerable. Forget that, you are not and if you don't maintain a humble attitude, you may well become a target. I'm not a lawyer. Attorney Gracelyn is giving excellent advice in this video, thanks to her host.
James ..Not always thats the point and your in a 3rd world country obviously you have not been jailed over there as if you had you would not utter this nonsense , many a INNOCENT foreigner has been screwed to the deck by a little sweet province girl they are educated in how to do this wake up man you may be next !
Thank you for this ladies. Very well done. I haven't been to the PI since the policeman demanded money from my taxi driver because he spotted a white guy in back and flagged him down. The driver spoke great English and helped me understand a few things. I'd love to return after the political stuff calms down.
Maraming salamat dearest Pea always for you wonderful helpful videos sweet beautiful lady,and give thanks again please to the wonderful lawyer lady for her helpful and informative legal advice,ingat palagi din maganda Pea
@@TheFilipinaPea unless your friends with the LTO or the PNP you as a Foreigner will be liberated of your Peso, call it a Donation to your local corruption fund.
I know an American gentleman living in Philippines for 10 yrs. and He say there is for sure no added bias he can tell ! He also say Americans get in troubles here also cz they very hot headed! And don't use common cents some times while speaking with police here in Philippines !!
Yes, I don’t see many foreigners getting in trouble here at all unless they’re Really begging for it, like getting drunk and taking swings at police officers
The laws of every nation are so varied and NOT necessarily based on common sense that it is almost impossible to stay in compliance with them. It therefore becomes almost necessary to consult an attorney when you enter a new country in order to stay out of potential trouble. Even here in the United States the laws of each state can vary tremendously. This opens the door for some people to USE the law for personal benefit. Unfortunately, most laws allow persons to "play the system" in order to extort or achieve personal gain using the power of the State. Everyone (in any country) should be aware that there are those out to entrap the unwary for their own personal benefit. Since I am coming to the Philippines after the pandemic I specifically appreciate your video on the laws of the land there in the Philippines. Like most me I sometimes make assumptions about the law that may not always be true everywhere. Thank you for another very informative video Pea. Hugs and kisses from the United States.
Yeah, due to the many comments I have read here, I am cancelling the purchase of the penthouse condo in Cebu City and I'll be looking at a different place to retire. I just don't need these kinds of shenanigans, people are experiencing, in my life. It is supposed to be 'better' than the US, not worse.
One "situation" comes to my mind. I was NEARLY A VICTIM. Met a young woman on line date site. She said she was 30. I arrived in Manila to meet her. We were ready to go to a hotel and I asked her for her ID so we could register. She had none. We talker about what to do, then from nowhere her Father appeared. He informed Me SHE WAS 17!!! I immediately left the Philippines. This type of thing happens regularly. A Foreigner can be Forced to PAY to keep out of Jail
What about foreign squatters? Are foreigners prosecuted for tent camping on private property?What about public property? Imagine a tourist on a budget, or a survivalist using available resources for food and shelter.In the states,it is legal to do this on public land as long as you only stay for two weeks per year in one location. Many years ago, squatting on private property for seven years without complaint from the owner was legal ground for title to the property.It is still done in some cases if the squatter pays the property taxes and makes his intent to obtain legal title clear. It’s a gray area in the law that probably gets manipulated more than most people think.in my neck of the woods. I’ve heard the numbers are high there for swuatters in the provinces
Anybody that comes to the country with those laws they would have to be out of their mind it seems to me like the moment you step off the plane you can be arrested for just about anything
useful information she has some very good videos. If what does lawyers telling you about the laws of the Philippines doesn't chill your bones and caused you to look elsewhere for a place to retire. I don't know what to say. The Philippines is definitely not for me
Miss p I think the laws in the Philippines about social media liable is better actually then the laws in the United States because I have seen people just slander each other all over Facebook and nothing happens I think that's a good take I'm that law
Thanks you so much for make this video hope all we'll the Philippine i be looking at your video give me inside i want married true women and this channel gives me so much insight the Philippines are so kind warm welcoming

This video should be REQUIRED VIEWING for all newbie foreigners planning to live here.
Thanks Grace & Thanks Pea!!!
They dont mention it. But on tv was said that if you go with a married filipina and her husband files a case under adultery u can get 12 years in prison
Adultery does not apply to men in the Phils. Of course her husband might just choose to invest little more than 100 dollars US and have you killed.
I Have to admit Pea's personality makes her more attractive!
Yes. Pea is very impressive. Knowledgeable and great sense of humor and intelligence shows with her production.
As with anyone, the beauty is inside, with that being said,,, she has nice packaging,, most definitely
Maybe I’m getting old, but her soul is far more than just her looks,,, love you Pea,,,,
Stewardess Pea is the smoothest!
Yes. She may not be what westerners think is beauty, but her charisma, intelligence, humor and femininity makes her very attractive.
Wow 😳! Thanks Pea, for making sure us foreigners know this stuff! This doesn’t stop me from coming to the Philippines one day. It’s just now I know a bit better on do’s and don’ts from a legal aspect.
Wow really good talk! Gracie is awesome! What a great lady
Sounds like a place to avoid after listening to that

You are a sweet heart Pea and you are compassionate. You made me cry when you help that old lady 💝
OK your Attorney is very,very cute. Good information.

She is right when she says there is a language barrier and that gives the edge to the native speaker. The police don't seem to go out of their way to harass me and are often pleasant. The most unfriendliest police encounters have been in Cebu. The nicest police were in Bacolod. I think respecting their office and remaining calm is key for a good outcoming. Thank you for all the videos you do! Take care.
Dear Pea, In other countries like mine in Europe it is also that when you steal from a relation, you can end up in jail. Greetings Roelof.
This information was really necessary. Thanks for the attorney visits.
yea, i love ya Pea, but from your other videos, you was building up your people as being different from the U.S.A. and almost had me wanting to come your country to find a woman, but this video just told me, it is no different in your country for us American men, so staying SINGLE and in our own COUNTRY, is really the best for us American guys to do, thank you
I am new to your channel and I recently joined a Philippine dating site but I am not a member yet of the site. I decided to check out some utube sites and learn a little about what I'm getting into. My name is Jose but everyone calls me Joe. This is all very informative information. Thank you Pea. I wish you well on your channel and lifes endeavors.
Well I’m glad you found me, Joe!!! 😊
Okay BIG tip guys. stay local in your Barangay parish, get to know the local police, in my cane just outside cebu city the police come around my house and eat and play on my play station somtimes 5 at a time, even I am back in the UK my mahal knows them all , I know some, there great, myself and my mahal are also patched up in a big MOTOR BIKE Filipino club, what I am trying to say keep in with the Filipinos, be humble and kind, do not back-chat them and shout etc, it is 100% who you know in the Philippines please trust me on this, do not take drugs there BIG mistake for you, do not drink and drive there, I say this again learn TAGLOG ..31 + years on and off in the Phils, so I know what I am saying..
All right Miss Pea... I don’t agree with your lack of religious values expressed. But I will subscribe to your channel because of your honesty. I’ve been married 10 years to a Filipina who I adore fully, but your truthfulness has let me know some things I didn’t know. Some of the things you have told me that I have told her , She just smiles because you hit it right on
Hey Pea, thank you for having this Attorney on your video. Very helpful information. I look forward to visiting the Philippines someday after covid is over.
What I find ironic about westerner men , especially American men worried about being arrested in the Philippines , is how easy it is to be arrested for domestic violence or a any sexual offense without any evidence. In many states an accusation becomes evidence. A man can be handcuffed, finger printed, mug shot and spend the night in jail. If there was no evidence they release you from jail but the dismissed charge remains on your record. The rationale for this draconian legal action is supposedly to teach the man that domestic violence will not be tolerated.
What really is bad is if the woman later admits that she lied. The courts will not punish her because they will think its part of the “battered woman syndrome”
American Men worried about arrest in the Philippines should consider they are at much more risk of jail in America. From what I have learned about a Filipinas , most are very honest and would never lie as would many American women do.
In summary, an American man can be arrested for “domestic drama”in many American states.
Thank you for this video and your attorney friend 🙏🏽
Complicated subject and you two pulled if off beautifully.
As far as the subject goes for a married filipina being with a new guy, check the dating sites there are a ton of "separated" filipinas. Thanks for the heads up.
YES BEING WITH A MARRIED WOMEN IS DANGEROUS IN ANY COUNTRY. THXS for sharing
Thanks, Philippina Pea !!!
These videos are great, I have no idea why they were recommended but I'm legit thinking of moving to the phillipines/going on an extended holiday there. Good work Pea!
I’m so happy they were recommended - that’s wonderful 👍👍👍
Enjoy your videos. I'm learning a lot about Filipino woman. And your country. Always been interested in Filipino woman. Thank you for your time and your videos. Keep it going.
Great Video. I still love it there.Nice and informative video,Pea and Attorney.
I spoke with many Phillippine women and the majority of those I spoke with told me that they are widows, I am concern but at the same time I love the Phillippine country and the people, why so many widows, am a bit nervous.
Yes, that’s very strange!
Two important points here.
STAY.... OUT.... OF.... BARS!
STAY.... AWAY.... FROM.... ALCOHOL!!!
Good advice for ANY foreigner, regardless of country.
Very true, Dragunov! 😊
@@TheFilipinaPea I've seen both of these, destroy peoples lives. I don't want to sound boring, but I would rather take my partner on a "survival" camp out, and hunt/forage for food, build a primitive shelter, and enjoy a fire, started by primitive means with her, ANY day as opposed to drinking until someone is drunk, or worse. I don't do "threesomes". That is, I'm dating HER, not HER, and Al (cohol).
I can't stand the smell of alcohol on my date/wife/etc.
intelligent women...the world is so full of empty-headed women...listening to these two is refreshing.
Great info. Really have to worry about all the kurakot diyan. As for family members, learn to cut them off is my strategy. Accountability seems rare today.
Great video. As an American attorney I found it interesting and informative.
Omgosh your lawyer is beautiful
OMG! So many laws! My GF has a daughter and I could get in trouble going to Jollibee! Scary
I love this country,the law is wonderful there .
I wish Trinidad and Tobago can follow in footsteps of these laws.
I will really like to visit one day.
Hello.
Wow. I was possibly thinking of retiring to the Philippines but after watching this video I'm having second thoughts now.
Don't get me wrong. I do respect the people and their culture and it's a beautiful country. However, I'm somewhat discouraged now. Pea, I do enjoy your videos and you provide alot of useful information. Thank you. - James
👍👍👍👍👍 5 thumbs up like 5 stars. This video is fun, very interesting, and informative about the LAWS in the Philippines. Highly recommend everyone watch!
Thanks so much, Giorge 👍😊
@@TheFilipinaPea you're welcome 💕 keep up the great work!
Attorney Gracelyn is very intelligent ,very knowledgeable and very beautiful.
Remember guys she is stating the law as she has been trained and of course corruption still goes on like many countries.
Pea I have not had any seizures for many years ago I can’t even remember. And I am a happy person no trouble in my history. Have been in secure facility’s that screen pretty well. On other Islands never heard about the epilepsy being a travel issue as long as you are healthy and safe and take medication with you. I was told that I could wean off mine since I have not had issues for years but I chose not to as long as I drive.
No, it’s not an issue anymore - that’s an old law that’s still on the books, like the arrow thing 😊
The Filipina Pea Thanks Pea because I have promised my friend I would be there in May if I had to come in Manila as a fisherman deckhand.
What I find incredibly amazing here is that you seem to know your Bible very well 19:10, you are right, it came from The Bible and this is one of many laws that THE MOST HIGH GOD gave to The Israelites while they were in the Wilderness, during the early days of their Pilgrimage out of Egypt. Now you've really captured and Secured my attention to your channel, and everything you are saying is welcomed information and very entertaining, I am intrigued, I don't know your professional Background or qualification, but you are definitely brilliant and charismatic ! You remind me of my 7th grade and Home Room Science teacher, She was Filipina.
I learned something today. Thank you.
Well am black , am American ..And whenever I go to Manila on business trips ,I noticed that Filipinos kept looking at me as I walked through the streets .. some laughed while looking at me , others seemed frightened especially when I walk by them ... it was weird because many Filipinos do it all the time . They stair at you
When she says cybersex what does she mean ? How about love scams they should have a law for anyone that was ever taken advantage of
i was wondering the same thing..
Most laws in the Phils are founded in common sense. If you behave well, you won't have a problem. Keep in mind that, if you do have a legal problem there, many incidents can be negotiated with the law enforcement officer. When that can't happen, have your lawyer consult with the family as most often they will accept a reasonable settlement to forgive you (you MUST have them sign off that the issue is settled permanently). Lastly, your lawyer can often negotiate something creative with the judge. Fortunately I have never had a single issue in the Phils however some foreigners "loose their heads" when they get there and think that they are invulnerable. Forget that, you are not and if you don't maintain a humble attitude, you may well become a target. I'm not a lawyer. Attorney Gracelyn is giving excellent advice in this video, thanks to her host.
James ..Not always thats the point and your in a 3rd world country obviously you have not been jailed over there as if you had you would not utter this nonsense , many a INNOCENT foreigner has been screwed to the deck by a little sweet province girl they are educated in how to do this wake up man you may be next !
Pea it's good to hear from Gracie....
Hope you stil pray the Rosary.....
Educational, and made enjoyable with Filipina Pea's touch of humor.
Your videos with Attorney Gracelyn are always very informative. Thank you.
Good to know.😊
Thank you for this ladies. Very well done. I haven't been to the PI since the policeman demanded money from my taxi driver because he spotted a white guy in back and flagged him down. The driver spoke great English and helped me understand a few things. I'd love to return after the political stuff calms down.
Maraming salamat dearest Pea always for you wonderful helpful videos sweet beautiful lady,and give thanks again please to the wonderful lawyer lady for her helpful and informative legal advice,ingat palagi din maganda Pea
Very informative.
Your youtube video are great! Much better understanding of my wife. Hope to get her to watch these.
Your channel is not only informative, but entertaining as well. Good content and variety of topics. Thanks.
Oh VERY IMPORTANT informations about this laws and all. Thank you so much
Omg! That give a Nuisance suit a whole new meaning there!
Very interesting and entertaining too !! Keep producing great content Miss Pea!!
I was planning a trip to PH as soon as Covid restrictions are lifted, but now, PH is officially off my bucket list to visit. Bangkok, here I come.....
Thank you very informative and also entertaining
Glad you liked it, Kevin!
Interesting information. Thank you Pea. As usual you were very funny at the end. Please don’t shoot me with that unregistered arrow.
I make no promises 😂
This attorney is very attractive! I love how she speaks
More excellent content! Thanks again!
Reckless driving? Is that even a crime here? Seems locals cannot be guilty of it
I doubt anyone would get charged with reckless driving unless there was a horrible accident with an obvious cause
@@TheFilipinaPea ..or unless the driver was a foreigner
There are two laws one for Foreigner and a separate for Filipino !
@@TheFilipinaPea unless your friends with the LTO or the PNP you as a Foreigner will be liberated of your Peso, call it a Donation to your local corruption fund.
Real talk. You are right on target
I know an American gentleman living in Philippines for 10 yrs. and He say there is for sure no added bias he can tell ! He also say Americans get in troubles here also cz they very hot headed! And don't use common cents some times while speaking with police here in Philippines !!
Yes, I don’t see many foreigners getting in trouble here at all unless they’re Really begging for it, like getting drunk and taking swings at police officers
You matched the dress with the subject quite well 😊 great content Pea., ❤️
This video has changed my mind about moving to the Philippines. Sounds worse than Scambodia.
The laws of every nation are so varied and NOT necessarily based on common sense that it is almost impossible to stay in compliance with them. It therefore becomes almost necessary to consult an attorney when you enter a new country in order to stay out of potential trouble. Even here in the United States the laws of each state can vary tremendously. This opens the door for some people to USE the law for personal benefit. Unfortunately, most laws allow persons to "play the system" in order to extort or achieve personal gain using the power of the State. Everyone (in any country) should be aware that there are those out to entrap the unwary for their own personal benefit. Since I am coming to the Philippines after the pandemic I specifically appreciate your video on the laws of the land there in the Philippines. Like most me I sometimes make assumptions about the law that may not always be true everywhere. Thank you for another very informative video Pea. Hugs and kisses from the United States.
Very good advice, Buddy! 😊
Yeah, due to the many comments I have read here, I am cancelling the purchase of the penthouse condo in Cebu City and I'll be looking at a different place to retire. I just don't need these kinds of shenanigans, people are experiencing, in my life. It is supposed to be 'better' than the US, not worse.
I have been watching U Tube for 3 years 53 paso’s to the US dollar. Great video.
One "situation" comes to my mind. I was NEARLY A VICTIM.
Met a young woman on line date site. She said she was 30. I arrived in Manila to meet her. We were ready to go to a hotel and I asked her for her ID so we could register. She had none. We talker about what to do, then from nowhere her Father appeared. He informed Me SHE WAS 17!!!
I immediately left the Philippines. This type of thing happens regularly. A Foreigner can be Forced to PAY to keep out of Jail
What about foreign squatters? Are foreigners prosecuted for tent camping on private property?What about public property? Imagine a tourist on a budget, or a survivalist using available resources for food and shelter.In the states,it is legal to do this on public land as long as you only stay for two weeks per year in one location. Many years ago, squatting on private property for seven years without complaint from the owner was legal ground for title to the property.It is still done in some cases if the squatter pays the property taxes and makes his intent to obtain legal title clear. It’s a gray area in the law that probably gets manipulated more than most people think.in my neck of the woods. I’ve heard the numbers are high there for swuatters in the provinces
Interesting question, Keith! I’ve never encountered that situation
It appears to me that the best way to avoid violating any law in the Philippines as a foreigner is to avoid the Philippines.
Anybody that comes to the country with those laws they would have to be out of their mind it seems to me like the moment you step off the plane you can be arrested for just about anything
useful information she has some very good videos. If what does lawyers telling you about the laws of the Philippines doesn't chill your bones and caused you to look elsewhere for a place to retire. I don't know what to say. The Philippines is definitely not for me
Miss p I think the laws in the Philippines about social media liable is better actually then the laws in the United States because I have seen people just slander each other all over Facebook and nothing happens I think that's a good take I'm that law
Well it’s best not to do that here, no! Apparently it’s not like the west .....
(I never speak badly of anyone)
Pea, you are a wonderful young lady. I enjoy your content immensely
Great video, very informative. Your ending was very funny, looking forward to more.
Thanks Jim! I appreciate that you’re watching a lot of my videos!! 😊
Thanks Pea & Gracelyn. Great information. Congrats Pea, on reaching 30k subscribers...you're rocketing along!!
Thanks you so much for make this video hope all we'll the Philippine i be looking at your video give me inside i want married true women and this channel gives me so much insight the Philippines are so kind warm welcoming
Here in Sweden you would also get a libel charge for speaking the truth. Whether what you say is true or not actually does not matter.
