“If the incoming OFWs report they were hassled by Customs personnel upon their arrival, action will be done within 24 hours,” Macabeo said.

According to the Customs District Collector, luggage brought by OFWs or balikbayans shall be excluded from inspection, unless if they are bringing illegal items like drugs, and guns. OFW luggages will still be subjected to x-ray if they are bringing commercial quantities of goods.

American geophysicist based in the Philippines who lives in Makati: "You know, I love this country, but you have the worst airport in the world. The last thing arriving passengers want is to get hassled. And they won't allow Uber here."

From stolen or lost belongings to tanim-bala and other modus from the people surrounding the NAIA airport, even the porters and the baggage boys, and now the taxi's.

"The authorities should look into the alleged overcharging by airport taxis at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) as this can drive away tourists and give the country a bad image, there are a lot of dreadful stories circulating online about airport taxis notoriously overcharging and duping passengers -- whether they are local tourists, overseas Filipino workers, or foreigners visiting our country.
