Daher ist es auch bescheuert, die CDU/CSU auf CSDs und ähnlichen Veranstaltungen zu dulden.

Leechiu Property Consultants Sees Lower Foreign Tourist Arrivals to the Philippines this Year

During its recent media briefing, property consultancy firm Leechiu Property Consultants Inc. (LPC) says it expects foreign tourist arrivals to the Philippines to be lower this year compared to what was achieved in 2025 due to factors like higher fuel prices and other factors, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.

To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of the Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…

Leechiu Property Consultants Inc. (LPC) expects foreign tourist arrivals to the Philippines to be lower this year compared with 2025 due to higher fuel costs and more expensive travel.

The number of tourists to the Philippines was flat at 4.4 million in the first eight months of 2026 compared with the same period last year after arrivals started to decline from May to August.

During LPC’s third-quarter media briefing last week, LPC senior manager of hotels, tourism, and leisure Adam Domingo said arrivals grew steadily in the first quarter, peaking at 12-percent growth in February, before momentum stalled in April and turned negative year-on-year from May onward.

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz amid the Iran conflict doubled jet fuel prices, pushing up airfares and prompting flight cuts. Full-year arrivals are now expected to fall below 2025 levels.

“Unless we change how we do tourism at a basic level, foreign arrivals are likely to stay near today’s levels into next year,” noted Domingo.

He added, “The clearest evidence for what works comes from China and India. Where the Philippines made travel easier, through visa-free entry and additional direct flights, arrivals from both markets grew by more than 50 percent in the first quarter, and China has sustained that pace since February. Reducing travel friction produces results.”

The same logic shows up in the hotel pipeline, with about 70 percent of planned hotel rooms located in areas with direct international flights, which shows that private developers are building where access is strongest.

However, there is a gap as some destinations with strong private-sector commitment, such as Puerto Princesa City in Palawan province, are served by international airports that sit underused because they have no direct international routes.

“Developers are betting on these places, but travelers cannot yet fly to them directly. Government can match that commitment quickly by introducing direct international routes to these destinations. Compared with building or expanding airports, new routes can be put in place sooner and can lift arrivals faster,” said Domingo.

On domestic tourism, which earns four times what foreign travelers bring in, Domingo said, “we also need a closer look at the relocation of turboprop flights from Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) to Clark. Island destinations that depend on turboprops report that business is down.”

Let me end this post by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this recent development? Do you think the Philippines will end up having lower foreign tourist arrivals this year compared to last year? Do you think the national government neglected the tourism industry this year due to its hosting of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit and meetings at the United Nations (UN)?

FREE AT HEART – Bonn-Premiere mit Hauptdarsteller (Linus Moog)

Woki, Sonntag, 1. November um 19:30 MEZ

FREE AT HEART (59. Internationale Hofer Filmtage, Morelia International Filmfestival, Oslo/Fusion, MIX Méxiko, OutShine Miami, Filmfest Bremen, FilmOut SanDiego, Koahsiung Vietnam, Filmfest Emden)

Bonn-Premiere in Anwesenheit des Bonner Hauptdarstellers Linus Moog und Produzenten Jan Philip Lange.

Worum geht's:
Der sechzehnjährige Sebastian genießt sein Teenagerleben umgeben von Wald, Feldern und den Landstraßen einer kleinen Stadt: Tagsüber lernt er, nachts lässt er die schwülen Sommertage mit am See bei Bier und Gras ausklingen, gerne auch mit seiner Freundin. Dann kommt plötzlich der gleichaltrige Kolja in seine Familie, angeblich der Sohn einer gerade verstorbenen Freundin des Vaters. Der Junge schlägt alle sofort in seinen Bann. Jedoch niemanden so sehr wie Sebastian.

Es folgt eine Achterbahnfahrt der Gefühle, die Sebastian, aber auch seine Familie, mit maximaler Kraft aus dem Kleinstadt-Alltag schleudert. „Free at Heart“ von der Regie-Entdeckung Max Hegewald ist ein intensives Coming-of-Age-Drama über eine Liebe, die alle Regeln bricht – und über die Gefühle, die niemand wahrhaben möchte und die sich trotzdem niemals abschalten lassen. Ein mutiger Debütfilm, von dem noch lange gesprochen werden wird.

Regie & Drehbuch: Max Hegewald

Besetzung: Linus Moog, Aurel Klug, Oli Bigalke, Annika Kuhl, Marlena Strawe

Produktion: D 2025

Länge: 115 Min

$1.5 Billion Obamacare Waste Targeted by Trump Administration

Remember back in 2009 when then US President Barack Obama and his fellow Democrats made a lot of promises that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) – AKA Obamacare – would be very helpful to many Americans in a variety of ways? Believe it or not, Obamacare itself has fraudulent transactions and it cost taxpayers a lot of money that went to waste. That said, the Trump administration eliminated a lot of subsidies for multiple dead or duplicate enrollees which resulted in saving taxpayers roughly $1.5 billion, according to a news report by Newsmax. This development is the latest in the administration’s ongoing efforts to fight fraud, waste and federal program abuses.

To put things in perspective, posted below is the excerpt from the Newsmax report. Some parts in boldface…

The Trump administration has eliminated Obamacare subsidies for 189,000 duplicate or deceased enrollees, a crackdown on improper government healthcare payments projected to save taxpayers approximately $1.5 billion over the next year, federal officials announced Wednesday.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services said the action follows the discovery of people receiving taxpayer-subsidized Affordable Care Act coverage despite already having Medicare, Medicaid, or Children’s Health Insurance Program coverage, as well as individuals listed as deceased.

The latest findings are part of President Donald Trump’s broader effort to combat fraud, waste, and abuse in federal health care programs after the Biden administration suspended routine eligibility checks for four years.

“When it comes to program integrity, the Biden Administration was sleeping on the job,” CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz said in a CMS release.

“They paused looking for duplicate Medicaid and Obamacare coverage for four years, creating a backlog of hundreds of thousands of duplicate enrollments.“

According to CMS, the Biden administration halted periodic Medicaid and Obamacare enrollment checks between 2021 and 2024, allowing hundreds of thousands of potentially improper duplicate enrollments to accumulate.

Trump restored the verification process in 2025, when CMS ended duplicate Obamacare subsidies for approximately 551,000 people already covered by Medicaid.

The administration saved nearly $4.4 billion through those efforts last year, according to the Daily Wire.

“We’ve already saved nearly $6 billion, and we will continue to work hard to restore taxpayers’ confidence that the programs they fund are spending their hard-earned dollars wisely and efficiently,” Oz said.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. emphasized that protecting taxpayer resources helps preserve healthcare coverage for Americans who genuinely need assistance.

“Americans overwhelmingly support protecting access to healthcare for vulnerable Americans, but taxpayers shouldn’t pay twice for the same coverage,” Kennedy said.

CMS said individuals flagged for duplicate coverage receive notice and have 30 days to dispute the findings before their Obamacare subsidies are terminated.

Those affected may also appeal afterward or demonstrate that their Medicaid or CHIP coverage is ending to regain eligibility for subsidies. Similar safeguards apply when federal records incorrectly identify someone as deceased.

The Daily Wire reported that improper enrollments sometimes involve applicants misrepresenting their income or unscrupulous insurance brokers enrolling Americans without their knowledge.

Let me end this piece by asking you readers: What is your reaction to this development? Are you feeling glad that the US President Donald Trump and his administration are actively fighting fraud and taxpayers’ funds waste? What do you hope would be changed within Obamacare itself while Trump is still in office? Do you think there are illegal immigrants who could be receiving Obamacare benefits?

money is running extremely tight once again.

TL DR: I'm incapable of working a normal job because of mental disabilities, the little income I had got destroyed because of an incorrect flagging done on my account with no human intervention.

I'm asking for support with groceries and medication, right now I have food for like.. maybe 2 days.

I try to be positive and see life not as a burden, but it's been so hard..

any amount helps, and I'll be extremely grateful for your generosity 💛🫶
