It's all about money!!! Truthfully, the F@king government of the Philippines is "inutil" (worthless) when dealing with Expat's problems abroad, to hide their incompetence, what do they do??? prevent people from going abroad simple as that. But hunger drives people out of the country. Bill of Rights, Philippine constitution, you are only barred from getting out of the country if you are a convicted criminal or there's a hold departure order.
WHO IS VIOLATING THE LAW NOW???
Those procedures and requirements ask from the OP are not even laws, you can't find them posted in any government offices especially BI. If you are rich, politician or famous no problem going out. If you are an ordinary Juan this happens to you.
