CANYON WOODS RESORT CLUBHOUSE REVIEW

We bought 2 voucher from ENSOGO.
This is 2Days / 1Night stay at CANYON WOODS CLUBHOUSE located in Batangas.
The voucher costs P2400. It comes with Breakfast for 2.






We arrived at the place after travelling 1 hour & 45 minutes from Manila.
Hmm, the whole area is just so big, and we saw a lot of infracsructure going on.
The receptionist was accomodating and welcoming.
She gave us our key for CASITA 1.


The rooms are spacious. But is a bit of what I expected.
The furniture requires re-upholstery, if not a replacement perhaps.

The room walls are cemented blast, one side is  made out of glass,
so its really cold at night.
The restrooms are clean enough.
Too bad, they dont have sprayer for the water closet. Or bidet perhaps.
The Aircon needs a cleaning.

The breakfast is a tyical Filipino Meal.
We chose Tapsilog (combination of Beef Tapa, Fried Rice & egg)
served with a glass of Orange/Mango Juice.

We had our breakfast facing the man-made lagoon.
My husband got mesmerized with this area.
He said, "honey, I can live here... " :)




I set my camera to 5x zoom to be able to take a shot for these busy geese...
Hmm, i guess they are having a lil conference... :) hehehee
FACILITIES   - ok
SERVICE - best
VALUE FOR MONEY - ok

We urge the public to make it a habit to ask for your RECEIPT.

Section 264 of Philippine Republic Act 8424

Section 264. "Failure or Refusal to issue Official, or sales, or commercial invoices,
violations to the printing of such receipts, or invoices or other violations."

a) any person who are being required under section 237 to issue receipts or sales or
 commercial invoices fails or refuses to issue such receipts
or invoices that do not truly reflect and/or contain
all the information requied to be shown therein or uses multiple of
double receipt shall upon convicion of each act of omission,
be punished by a FINE of not less than (1000) One thousand pesos
 but not more than (50,000) Fifty Thousand Pesos 
AND 
suffer IMPRISONMENT of not less than (2) Two years but not more than (5) Five years.


I've encountered a lot of establishment/merchant that do not issue
 OFFICIAL RECEIPT or SALES INVOICE.

According to Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) -
It is a MANDATORY to issue these proof of purchase.
This reminder MUST be posted in any establishment that is VISIBLE to the public.

When you dont receive one, it means your purchase was not counted,
and the TAX on your purchases were not remitted to the Government accordingly.

I am so fed up with these type of dirty tactics by some merchant.
I've noticed that these people have different styles on how to reduce their taxes.

Common Techniques on how to avoid Tax on Purchases.

1. NON issuance of Official Receipts.
2. Using a SEPARATE Sales Invoice WITHOUT serial numbers.
3. Using a receipt with NO TIN number of the Proprietor.
4. Using a receipt from an ELECTRONIC CALCULATOR.
5. Using a fake invoice. meaning the serial numbers are NOT registered in BIR.
6. Using multiple receipts.
7. Issuance of receipt that do not truly reflect the amount sold.

We would like to urge the public to ALWAYS ask for your receipt.
This is to ensure that taxes on your purchases 
go to the development of our country.

NO JAYWALKING in MARIKINA CITY...

I havent seen any place that most of the people within the are follows the ordinance that is implemented for the sake of many...

Marikina City...

Many years passed, and Marikina continues to grow each time. Citizens knows how to follow their leaders. Most are NOT STUBBORN, well-disciplined and with high morale.

JAYWALKING is not allowed in Marikina. The fine is 100 pesos, or if you dont wanna pay or you dont have P100. You will be force to render a community service.



This photo was taken just today. Marikina Bayan. As you can see,
all the people use the PEDESTRIAN LANE. Very disciplined. Truly impressive.


Shown on the photo are the steel barricade to prevent the people from sneaking.
For some reason its color YELLOW, so its visible even during at night.

So they have no choice but to use the pedestrian lanes intended for the people.

Who among you guys- never dreamed of having a sweet vacation like this?
Just seeing this photo of HONDA BAY-PALAWAN would mesmerize us all. isnt it?

You dont just enjoy but help our fellow Palawenos to have a decent living...

LOUIS VUITTON CARE KIT

I came to passed by recently to a website that sells a cleanser kit specially formulated for LOUIS VUITTON BAGS. I had a problem with my Speedy's Handles. Due to frequent use, it became darker. Well, they say, its normal for genuine leathers. This darkening is called "patina". And i searched for some ways on how to get rid of it. Other than this problem, the zip pull and the whole vachette leather becomes dry as times go by...

Below is a LOUIS VUITTON CARE KIT. It is manufactured and imported from USA.
It has NO detergent. And proven to get rid of stubborn dirt, dust, fingerprints of your LV Bags.
LV Bags like Speedy (Mini, 25, 30, 35, 40, duffle bag, keep all) are all VACHETTA LEATHER. Meaning, these are UNFINISHED LEATHER. Therfore, it requires a cleaner that is intended only for unfinished leather.

LV Care Kit is already available in the Philippines.



IMPORTANT REMINDER:
  1. Never attempt to clean your LV Bag using a baby oil, furniture leather cleaner as this might worsen the status of your LV Bags.
  2. Never use any type of cloth to clean your LV, we recommend the use of microfiber.
  3. If your LV Bag is vachetta, use only cleaner intended for vachetta, remember that every type of leather requires a different type of cleaner.
  4. Do not try to wash your LV Bag using detergent, if you are unsure of what you're doin, you better go to the nearest BAG SPA or LV Boutique to have your LV Bags cleaned by professionals.
