Is The Filipino Channel Still No. 1?

Since The Filipino Channel (TFC) has partnered with Direct TV Satellite, it has received some positive and negative reviews. Now you have to subscribe first to Direct TV before you can avail of The Filipino TV Channel to get a glimpse of ABS-CBN Channel 2 and/or GMA Pinoy broadcasts.

But over one million Filipinos overseas view The Filipino Channel globally each day, and TFC continues to dominate North America's all-Filipino programming.

And what do you see on TFC? Well, I can't say it's at par with American television programming, but the joy it brings to our Pinoy hearts when we see fellow Filipinos having simple (most of the time, corny) entertainment still keeps us coming back for more.

Medical Tourism in the Philippines

What is Medical Tourism?

Did you know that many people are discovering that a medical procedure or cosmetic and plastic surgery in the Philippines is six to eight times cheaper than in the US? As an example, an $8000 medical procedure in the US only costs about $1200 in the Philippines equivalent to a savings of 85%. Better yet, if you have a $4000 budget, your air travel, tropical vacation, relaxing spa and extra shopping expenses are all covered to still save 50%!

Sssshhh.. and it can be done in complete anonymity.

Medical tourism therefore is a medical / cosmetic procedure coupled with the travel and vacation package in one. It is becoming popular among Filipino Americans, Americans and foreigners alike. Most avail of three or more procedures to save even more. And there is no doubt that our medical facilities and doctor expertise are parallel to foreign counterparts.

Health, wellness, and beauty are top and primary concerns of individuals. Wouldn't you want to enjoy the luxury of an exotic vacation, and return home feeling good inside and out with a higher self-esteem and more money in your pocket?
