Wow Philippines! Leah Beach, Batangas

The picture above was taken in March 2003, the one below in August 2006. Both pictures show Leah Beach, Batangas (110km south of Manila) the 'hub' for getting bancas to Puerto Galera (Mindoro Island). The difference of both pictures is quite striking. It’s surely not what is intended under WOW PHILIPPINES, the official tourist website of the Philippines which tries to lure more vistors into the country.
However, getting a banca these days on Leah Beach gives you an unforgettable impression about governance and the rule of common sense.

Hi Anonym: Who is teaching the people?
Rules and regulations do exist in a country 'where everything goes'...
