  Is that easy to get a Mechanical Engineer job in the Philippines for someone like me considering the fact that i am an indian? Anyone have any ideas??? Please help me😕😔

  What happened man, is India creating any problems for you or could not find any opportunities here. India also need few mechanical engineers I guess. 😀 Don't go for Philippines man.
  
  PS: Nice signature of yours 😉

  Hi JIJO,
  
  The Philippines exports a big percentage of its graduates every year because our economy could not create enough jobs. Depending on your academic qualifications, you may be able to get a job in the academe; I observe a bias for foreigners in the higher education system. If you want to stay in industry, I would like to caution you that although it is not impossible, it is quite difficult.
  
  I hope this helps.

  Yes, I'm residing at Cebu City, in Central Visayas. Davao City is to the south, in Mindanao. It's the third largest metropolitan area in the Philippines, after Metro Manila and Cebu.
  
  There are a lot of pilot training academies in Manila; there are even at least two here in Cebu.
  
  If you pass by Cebu drop me a note 😀

  Ya know, I was actually born in Makati, Manila, when my dad was posted there 😛
  
  No memories of the place though. Family moved back to Malaysia after I was two years old. Would love to visit the place again one day.

  Would that be during Marcos' time? Little has changed in the Philippines though...

  I have one more doubt.. Hows the people there? I mean their attitude towards foreigners. Especially to Indians?

  There had been growing racism against Koreans in Cebu in the last few months, but basically we talk about it among ourselves. We don't go hurt them physically or even try to stop their business permits from being released 😛. We just tell ourselves how our economic control over the city is slowly dissipating to foreigners 😔
  
  Filipinos are know for their hospitality. We did not even fight the Spaniards when they came, we just let them take the land. 😀

  Yeah, my family was there during his time. My parents told me about his tanks rolling down the highway near the end of his reign, though I didn't believe it at first 😛

  That would be during the People Power Revolution. Too young to remember much of it; all I know was that my mother transferred to a public school (from teaching in a private school) - everybody was enthusiastic about the new regime. 20 years later, we're back to square one. Sigh. 😔

  Ah ok as u wish.. and ha i would like to know.. how many hours will take to reach Davao from Manila via plane
•

  I've never gone from Davao to Manila straight or vice-versa. But from Cebu to Manila is about 50 min.; from Cebu to Davao is slightly less (about 45 min.). So from Manila to Davao should not take more than 2 hours.
