Good day David and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Its never to early to start planning your retirement abroad as is apparent you are doing. Recommend searching on FB for rentals in the locale you are interested in and join some property links that will send you regular updates that match your property desires. I’ve recently done that for the Antipolo market and have found it quite useful. If you have not already visited either the Philippines or Italy, recommend doing so to get a better feel of your prospective future home. I’m a four-season guy and miss the winter months so I'm planning a trip to Hokkaidō Japan in February for some winter sports. One thing I like about living in the Philippines is not only the beauty of the country and the warmth of her people, but you can fly to many destinations in less than four hours. If you have not already done so, please subscribe to ATP to receive future information like this. Your viewership and time is very much appreciated and I wish you a great day. May your future retirement plans become a reality! Enjoy. 🙂🙂

@ATPAllThingsPhilippines-jb2050 well I'm not much of a winter kind of person lived in Maine a few years and had enough snow to last a lifetime. Lol I grew up in Las Vegas so the heat doesn't bother me and been living in Knoxville tn for more then 17 years. Love the greenery and rain. Humidity sucks but I can live with it . Been to Japan 3 times and Germany 1 time.

Well David, from your information it sounds like you just might enjoy the Philippines with all its lush vegetation and jungles and rainy season. I was recently up in Ilocos Norte exploring a cave and walking through the jungle and thought I was going to die from the heat and humidity. 😆😆Maybe you should consider an exploratory Philippine vacation then. Stay safe. 🙂🙂

Good day Hesam and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and inquiring. Firstly, I am not a mechanic but have knowledge of mechanics. Since the battery voltage meter shares the same section with the air temperature meter, confirm if the battery voltage meter shows a reading. If it does, this isolates the issue to the air temperature meter. Possibly a loose connection in the wire harness to sensor. Long shot here, but confirm all your fuses are good.

Good day Edward and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Yes, I would agree with your numbers as I budget 100,000 monthly ($1,700 USD) and live comfortably. Electric is certainly one cost that is more expensive than other locations but still manageable in the overall scheme of things. I’m currently renting a 70+ sqm townhome for 12,000 peso in Visayas and will soon be moving to Antipolo Luzon where I’ve signed a lease for a 90+ sqm two story house for 25,000 peso ($427 USD) that I still consider a bargain as it would cost me at least $2,000+ in the states. A bump up in the finances but as the old saying goes, “we can’t take it with us”. 🙂 And it is certainly wise planning to have an emergency rainy day fund for the unexpected.

Good day 点一滴学英文 and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and raising this question. Investors do not have to have an account with Vanguard to buy and sell its mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Vanguard maintains agreements with other brokers to give their clients access to Vanguard funds. Similar arrangements with online brokerages and investment houses allow the purchase and sale of mutual funds and ETFs managed by other investment companies including Fidelity, Charles Schwab, and BlackRock. There can be a catch. All brokers, even online discount brokers, charge some fees and commissions. Some allow certain Vanguard funds and other funds to be bought and sold commission-free, and others don't. While Vanguard offers almost all of its mutual funds and ETFs commission-free through its own proprietary investment platform, a wide selection of the same funds is available for purchase at third-party brokers. So you will want to consult with your third party brokerage firm to see what fees if any they may charge.

Good day Mitchiesnts and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. I would agree with you that the Philippines does have much potential to build out the solar, wind, and hydro assets in the future. Last month, (June) while flying into Caticlan to visit Boracay, I was able to see the Nabas Wind Farm which has 18 wind turbines that supply 36 MW of power to the Visayas grid. Wednesday this week I was on a road trip up north in Luzon and saw the Bangui Wind Farm that has 25 wind turbines generating 33 MW and 50% of the power needs for the Ilocos Norte Province. And down in the area of Teresa near Antipolo, Luzon there are three contractors building tunnels for the future hydro dam. As an outsider and guest in this country, I would say the Philippine government is certainly committed to the future of renewable energy.

Good day Leah and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Lots going on in the Philippines regarding Renewable Energy. Question #1: In August 2017, “Solar Philippines” opened the country’s first photovoltaic (PV) panel factory located in Santo Tomas, Batangas, a province south of Manila. The 8,429 square meter facility has the capacity to produce 2.5 million solar panels a year, making it one of Asia’s biggest solar factories. Question #2: Philippines imports most of its Solar panels from China, United States and Hong Kong. Question #3: One of the Philippines wind turbine suppliers is Siemens Gamesa whose manufacturing facility is in Le Havre, France. In August 2022, Siemens Gamesa secured a new deal with ACEN CORPORATION (ACEN), a leading renewables developer in Southeast Asia, to supply 14 units of the SG 5.0-145 turbines in the Philippines following the country’s first round of renewable energy auctions. Flying in and around the Philippines, one might see these Wind Turbine farms perched atop the mountains as I recently did going to Boracay.

Good day Dylan and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. A 63 MWp solar project has been completed in the Philippines by Modern Energy Management (MEM) for AC Energy. This 63 MWp solar project is located in the Luzon region of the Philippines and has been exporting power to the grid since April 25, 2021. MEM provided engineering, design, and construction services, alongside its Filipino partner, Sidcore Consulting. Philippines conglomerate JG Summit Holdings announced that its renewables arm has completed work on one of the largest rooftop solar installations in the Philippines, a 13.8-MWp array at its petrochemical complex in the city of Batangas. The installation, which spans nine buildings, is expected to eliminate 17 kilotonnes of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions annually. It was built by JG Summit’s Merbau Corporation in partnership with Upgrade Energy Philippines (UGEP). Construction works started in August 2022, with the project realised in two phases of 5.8 MW and 8.0 MW, respectively. Wind energy in Philippines: six potential wind power projects in Luzon. Energy Development Corp., a renewable power producer led by the Lopez Group, plans to build six more power projects that will add 1,500 megawatts. EDC owns the existing 150-MW Burgos wind project in Ilocos Norte which was successfully commissioned in November 2014 and is now considered the country’s largest wind power project. EDC also received an approval to conduct the grid impact study for the 262-MW Negros wind project in Manapla and Cadiz. Change does not happen overnight, but it is happening and the Philippines is leading the way in S.E. Asia.

Will Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific, and AirAsia passengers and crew will surprise United Airlines to arrive into Cebu for the first time? They might have a opening ceremony event to welcome our plane from Tokyo Narita and the USA!

Nice to hear from you again Joshua and thank you for making this inquiry. With only a few months left before the maiden voyage of United Airlines direct flight from Tokyo to Cebu, I’m sure there are many things happening behind the scenes to make this a successful venture. Not sure if the other airlines and staff will be on hand to welcome this maiden voyage, but I would certainly think that the Mactan Cebu International Airport Authority (MCIAA) would welcome this new arrival with much fanfare and hopefully a dual fire truck waterfall baptism as it arrives in Cebu.

Hi Didier: Nice to hear from you and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Over the years it seems the “talk” of making business transactions simpler and easier for the consumer has actually become more convoluted and difficult. Where there use to be an ounce of trust and friendship with your banking institution, today’s business transactions have taken on a more “cold and unfriendly” atmosphere. The U.S. government doesn’t formally track how many Americans leave the U.S. but the most recent estimate puts the figure at nearly nine million. This figure represents a doubling of the 1999 figure, placed at 4.1 million. The number of expats has more than doubled in the last fifteen years - a number growing faster than the rate of the U.S. population itself. I agree that we do live in crazy times but we must stay focused to protect the assets we have and prevent this sort of corporate theft by the financial consortiums. Where ever you are, take care, and safe travels. Have a great day!

@@ATPAllThingsPhilippines-jb2050 Well said. The reason I comment here is... I left the Philippines 25 days ago but I'm still hopelessly there in thought 😅 Missing the taste of good papaya and mango 😋 Take care 🙏

Good day Aerovias and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Many corporate decisions to be made when choosing a jet engine or turbo prop aircraft based on the flight distances and operational needs. In general, jet engines allow an aircraft to fly higher and faster. On longer journeys, this makes them more fuel-efficient. The more time spent at ‘cruising altitude,’ the more pronounced this becomes. However, turboprops can be more desirable for lighter aircraft on shorter flights. The engines are lighter and more efficient at low altitudes as well as during take-off and landing. The choice comes down to airlines’ planned operations and the airports where they will operate. For shorter, low-capacity regional flights, turboprops remain very popular. However, jets are preferable for longer flights or to allow higher capacity.

Good day Muhjm and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Your point is well taken but I am informing the expat community of the rental rates in this video. And though Filipinos view RU-vid, your argument might apply in Thailand but I believe not here. Most Filipino land lords are logical common-sense individuals. If the rent goes up and I am not satisfied, I do not “COMPLAIN”, I move to another rental of my liking and the Filipino landlords know this. The 3-bedroom townhome next door is priced at 15,000 peso monthly and has only been occupied four months in my 13 months living here. Why? Because he’s trying to price gouge and the prospective tenants aren’t having it. If you have not already done so, please subscribe to ATP to receive future information like this.

Good day Phil and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and raising consumer awareness about the ATTO 3’s rust issues. I updated the video description with a link to a good article from New Zealand speaking to this issue and what one ATTO 3 consumer has dealt with. Interestingly, I found this note on the internet: “The rust issue is not widespread, and most Atto 3 cars are not affected. The issue seems to be more prevalent in areas with high humidity or exposure to salt”. Having said that, many of the locations that sell the BYD ATTO 3 are in countries with “high humidity or exposure to salt”. Many of the international auto companies and especially in the United States use a galvanization rust proofing process. This process coats steel with a layer of zinc, most typically by “hot dipping” components in a molten vat of the metal while painted components see a thinner layer deposited via electroplating.

Good day “M” and thanks for subscribing. With so many beautiful locations here, it’s not an easy decision to find a “home base”. Maybe think about an exploratory trip before your final decision to look at the three or four most ideal selections from your list and then spend two or three weeks looking at your selected locations that will guide you to that final decision.

Good day Solitude and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Many would agree with you but there are those whose desire a new vehicle for many reasons and why not buy new if it does not break the bank or put you in a financial bind.

Good day B Sway and thank you for looking at ATP and viewing this video. You pose a question many ask and a decision many have had to make. If you become uninsurable while living abroad, one option is to self-insure if you have the financial resources. If you have limited resources, it could take only one major medical illness or accident to potentially exhaust those resources. Another option is to return to your home country and seek assistance there. In America, you might be covered by Medicare/Medicaid. If a veteran, you could also seek assistance from the Veterans Administration (VA) for medical care and possibly housing. For many living abroad, this topic should be planned for.

Hi Jenny and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Driving this section of road every day I would certainly agree with you that traffic flow is now much better. The workers poured cement in the north bound lane last night and are moving along rapidly in this section. Your viewership and time is very much appreciated and I wish you a great day. 🙂🙂

Is this north or south of Cebu City?

Good day Neil and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and inquiring. The San Fernando community is about 30 km south of Cebu on the main north south road. The San Fernando road project is one of many as you travel south to Oslob so give yourself extra time and pack a little extra patience. 🙂 In my first year here, I’ve seen many road sections completed and it is certainly making a good difference for travelers on this road.

@ATPAllThingsPhilippines-jb2050 thanks. I just subscribed.

Good day Negative Zero and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. Much of the news that is presented gives this impression yes. America certainly has its issues and the open southern border is high on the list. In February of this year, New York launched a pilot program that will provide migrants with prepaid debit cards to buy only food and baby supplies. Participants will be allowed to shop with the cards at bodegas, grocery stores, supermarkets and convenience stores. And while the homeless population is staggering, migrants are being put up in hotels and shelters. Mind boggling.

Good day Coco and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and inquiring. The beef cuts at S&R are noticeably nicer and thicker cuts of meat and come from Australia, New Zealand, and America. I believe there is a noticeable difference from the S&R brand meats compared to the big name chain supermarkets.

Good day Michael and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and providing this information. Very nice to have contact with a butcher that offers you exactly what you are looking for while money is secondary to satisfied taste buds. 🙂 Enjoy!

Good day Jose and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and commenting. The established Philippine real estate rules and guidelines established for foreigners are very much like many other Asian countries which do not allow home ownership or the purchase of land. Having owned two condos in Thailand, I agree with you that in general, condo real estate will not appreciate in value like many think. The local governments allow the large builders to over build condo capacity which drives the prices down setting foreign condo owners up for losses. I, fortunately broke even on both of my units because they were rented out for better than 90% of the time. But to your point about the Philippines not being an ideal country for foreigners to retire, I respectfully disagree. Though real estate is one aspect of why an expat lives abroad, it is not the main reason. As I have expressed and presented in ATP videos, the Philippines is a nation rich in history offering a wonderful climate, the opportunity to meet many amazing Filipino people, and opportunities to enjoy amazing scenery and attractions. After five years in Thailand and one year in the Philippines, I now consider the Philippines home. If you have not already done so, please subscribe to ATP to receive future information like this.

Your wrong on the condos , you buy in Angeles City , they all go up in value . Flipped 2 so far made $40,000

Hi Michael and thank you for looking at ATP, viewing this video and providing your positive real estate experience. Seems you have found the right properties in the right location. Could you provide our viewers the names of some developments in Angeles City that have done well over time should they be looking in that area. My lady may soon be transferring to that area and it would be nice to have a look. Your information is refreshing and encouraging to know its not just the developer’s making money. Your viewership and time is very much appreciated and I wish you a great day. Continued success in your real estate investing! 🙂🙂
