So I just got my <b>NBI Clearance</b> renewed the other day and of course I wanted to share the whole experience with you guys. <span class="_Tgc">The <b>NBI Clearance</b> is a clearance
 issued by the National Bureau of Investigation, which is a staple requirement for employment in the Philippines. </span>Here's how easy it went:</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Simply go to <a href="http://www.nbi-clearance.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">www.nbi-clearance.com</a> and sign up for an account by filling out a form, for those who haven't yet. For people who have already registered online, just enter your previously registered email address and password. Only one valid email account per user/applicant is allowed.</div>

Mine was for renewal. After clicking the Apply For Clearance button, a small window asking for confirmation that I was to present my driver's license for verification popped out. I double checked if the driver's license number on the screen matched mine before I clicked on the I Agree button.</div>

I chose Pick Up (they're still working on the Delivery option in the future, which I think would be amazing once implemented), the nearest NBI branch, clicked on an afternoon slot for the day (yes, you have to schedule an appointment to make a personal appearance at one of their centers), chose local for purpose, local employment for purpose detail, after which the amount that I needed to pay appeared. I then clicked Bank Over The Counter as my chosen mode of payment and took a photo of the reference number that was provided once I finalized the online renewal application.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Methods of Payment include:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<ul>
<li>Bank Over-The-Counter (BDO, BPI, Union Bank, please check the NBI website for updates)</li>
<li>Online Banking</li>
<li>Mobile Payment</li>
<li>Bayad Center</li>
<li>MultiPay</li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
By the way, the status of clearance applications can be verfied by clicking on the 
Transaction button found at the left side of the pane.  </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I went to the bank and paid the amount of 115 pesos using the reference number of course, then straight to the NBI branch that I chose with receipt in hand. I arrived at the branch at around 1:30pm and there was like 300 applicants in front of me, waiting in line. Once it was my turn, I gave them the receipt which had the reference number I got from the NBI website and my driver's license. I had my picture and finger print biometrics taken next and got my clearance in a matter of seconds. The whole process just took less than 5 minutes. </div>

The NBI branch (Robinson's Metro East) that I went to only had 2 windows to serve applicants, so even though the process was fast there is always a long line all throughout the day. I think more windows would do the trick. Other than that, getting an NBI clearance is pretty easy.</div>
<b><br /></b>
<b>Reminders & Tips:</b><br />
<ul>
<li>Scheduling of appointments for clearance applications are done online </li>
<li>Walk-in applicants without scheduled appointments will not be entertained</li>
<li>You <b>ONLY</b> need a government ID and proof of payment as requirements (local employment - purpose)</li>
<li>Make sure to write down the Reference Number for payment, you don't have to print the whole transaction statement.</li>
<li>Settle payment before going to the NBI center.</li>
<li>Don't leave the line except for a toilet break. Even if you ask the person next to you to save your space, you might just find it gone if you leave it to have a meal.</li>
<li>Eat before you go to the NBI center, bring some snacks and water too. I was in line for 3 hours...</li>
</ul>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Philippines is visited by an average of 24 typhoons on an annual basis, one super typhoon and sometimes the August monsoon brings too much rain that raging floods devastate us locals. It pays to be ready for these disasters before they come down on us. Dave and I love to plan, but being parents made us realize that preparedness for calamities or even just power outages that might last for hours in a household with an infant and toddlers is of great importance. Hence, the reason for having an emergency kit that can help us get through such ordeals. It consists of items which allow you to navigate your 
house and begin acting on further protocols, depending on the situation. Here's our top 7 essential items that should be in a Filipino family's emergency or survival kit:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<b><a href="http://bit.ly/2cevxh2" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Powerbanks</a></b>. Staying connected through our mobile phones or other gadgets is important when disasters strike or even when it's just a power outage. You'll never know when you'll need to call for help or assistance, so powerbanks can be quite handy in keeping our gadgets alive and ready when needed. This one is a Romoss Sense 6, which can charge an iPad mini full, up to 4 times or an iPhone up to 8 times. We also have a small Romoss Solo, which charges an iPhone 6 times and they both work great.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><a href="http://bit.ly/2ci48tu/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Rechargeable LED lights with fan</a>.</b> Gone are the days when we need to look blindly for candles and matches when the power suddenly goes out. These rechargeable LED lights are brighter, more convenient, economical and far safer to use during brownouts especially if like us, there are kids in the house. I can't count the number of times my parents would tell us not to play with lit candles, the obvious risk of the house catching fire was always drilled in our heads but the temptation was always there at the back of our heads. I personally hate getting sweaty, so I love the fact that this model has its own fan. I purchased 3 for us.</div>

<b><a href="http://bit.ly/2c5Cuws" rel="nofollow">Headlamp</a></b>. This can come pretty handy in difficult situations.

Also, here are 2 items that I would love to have for my own survival kit (at home, since I rarely leave the house): <br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://bit.ly/2cECiti" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>12" Rechargeable Desk Fan</b></a>.
 This one is perfect for when it's time to sleep and the power still 
hasn't come back. I remember those times when I thought my arms would 
fall out from fanning the kids, all the while I was sweating like a pig.
 You're arms can only take so much, 8 hours of none stop fanning can 
really take its toll on you. A 12" desk fan can help a great deal in 
those kinds of situations, thinking of getting one for each of our kids 
so Dave and I only need to fan ourselves haha.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://bit.ly/2cEG7hQ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><img alt="bit.ly/2cEG7hQ" border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhV1ZtLDCiwRrB76bXStMaZLS-l9A5G6O3f4bJNkC9XvBjX9KeOZ31zDhxNEM57OvBG3HcIjo2Z0oyfvmttdJ0AsR6IrPEnUPM-bWJWAe0Li-6HT4aHTuw4aWRT7GTXyOtFJARf5KfA6_VG/s320/tough-mama-ntmrsf-8716-rechargeable-stand-fan-white-4971-6866453-1-zoom.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://bit.ly/2cEG7hQ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>Rechargeable stand fan</b></a>. Do I have to express how much I hate sweating? Having this stand fan during brownouts would be a dream! I am so saving up for this!<br />
<br />
We only have one Emergency Kit right now but ideally we would have to set up 6 more and place them in strategic positions 
all around the house. Keeping in mind that we’ll most likely not know when 
the power is going to go out and will need quick access to a kit, I recommend these suggestions when deciding where to place them:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Have an Emergency Kit on each level of your house</li>
<li>Have a Emergency Kit in each bedroom</li>
<li>Have a Emergency Kit in each room that is regularly used</li>
</ul>
<br />
With these guidelines in mind, Emergency Kits should be in the following locations:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Our Bedroom</li>
<li>The Kids’ Bedroom</li>
<li>Under the sink in the Kitchen</li>
<li>In the entertainment center in the Living Room</li>
<li>Upstairs</li>
<li>In our Helper's room </li>
<li>In the Garage</li>
</ul>
<br />
Note: A Medical Kit is different, and that's going to be for a separate article<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So that's it! How about you, what's in your emergency kit? Are you ready for when disaster strikes?</div>

We should all take a leaf out of Henry Sy's book, the man who tops the Forbes Philippines' rich list for nine years in a row. Not just him, but those who are among the top 10 richest in the country. Here's the list released by Forbes Philippines just last month:<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><b>Henry Sy and family</b><br />$13.7B<br />The richest person in the Philippines until this day who owns retailers and real estate throughout the country. Mostly known for SM malls and their partnership with Singaporean e-commerce company Lazada that was announced this year.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>John Gokongwei, Jr.</b><br />$6.8B<br />The founder of JG Summit, one of the biggest conglomerates in the country with interests in banking, food, hotel, air transportation, real estate, chemicals and telecommunications. When you hear the name Gokongwei, Robinson's and Universal Robina Corp isn't far behind.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Aboitiz family</b><br />$5B<br />The Aboitiz family controls the Aboitiz Equity Ventures and has major stakes in operations of LaFarge in the Philippines.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Lucio Tan and family</b><br />$4.9B<br />Lucio Tan's LT Group is in banking, tobacco, property development and spirits.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>George Ty and family</b><br />$4.6B<br />George Ty of GT Capital Holdings is more famous for Metrobank, Grand Hyatt and the Marco Polo hotels.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Tony Tan Caktiong and family</b><br />$4.3B<br />Tony Tan Caktiong and his family own the empire that is Jollibee.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Jaime Zobel de Ayala and family</b><br />$4.1B<br />Ayala Corp<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Enrique Razon, Jr.</b><br />$3.5B<br />Chairs the International Container Terminal Services, the Philippines' largest port operator.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>David Consunji</b><br />$3.1B<br />The founder of the construction company DMCI.<br /><br /></li>
<li><b>Andrew Tan</b><br />$3B<br />Alliance Global, McDonald's and Emperador Brandy</li>
</ol>
<br /><br />
These men and their family's accomplishments are truly admirable, when we're talking finance, that is. You know you want to be any of them, I'm no hypocrite, so I admit that I do as well! When you dream, dream big is what they say! So be inspired by them, these rich Pinoys! Who knows, you might just be one to top the Forbes list in the future!<br /><br />Hint: These men are all entrepreneurs, so we better get rid of the employee mindset we've been conditioned in since our school days to achieve this dream!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Heads up motorists! Today, September 1, the odd-even traffic scheme will take effect in some streets in Pasig City.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The affected streets include:</div>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Elisco Road westbound</li>
<li>R. Jabson St. nortbound</li>
<li>Intersection of Elisco Road, M. Concepcion St., and R. Jabson St.</li>
<li>San Guillermo St. eastbound</li>
<li>Sandoval Avenue eastbound</li>
</ul>
<div class="copy-paste-block" style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Under this scheme, all vehicles with 
plate numbers ending in 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 are barred from passing 
through the affected streets during Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.<br />
<br />

Meanwhile, vehicles with plate numbers that end in 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 are prohibited from passing through those roads on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays 
and Sundays.<br />
<br />

Affected motorists are advised to take alternate routes.<br />
<br />

Prior to this, Pasig City has been implementing the MMDA’s Unified 
Vehicular Volume Reduction Program (UVVRP) also known as the ‘number 
coding’ scheme, with window hours from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.<br />
<br />

The UVVRP is a traffic decongestion measure which bans both private 
and public utility vehicles from plying Metro Manila’s roads on weekday 
peak hours.<br />
