These are from the big pool party at ABC Hotel a few weeks ago.  Despite all the other bullshit going on in town with the bars and whatnot, these pool parties are always a great time you can count on.

July 7th, 2011

I’ve been getting flooded with emails asking about the raids and if this means the end of AC as we know it.   Calm down guys, AC isn’t going anywhere yet.  You have to realize the crazy, corrupt political climate there has always been delicate and there is always an ebb & flow to these things.  Sure, there’s been a flurry of raids in the past week or so, more girls carted off (umm, rescued?) to Manila and the like.  But what does it all mean?  Especially for the likes of us, the sporadic-visit mongers who come anywhere between 1 and 20 times a year?

I’m going to share with you a post from the AC2 Message Forum, by long-time AC resident Norman (with his permission of course), which puts things in a well-informed perspective.  He sums it all up better than I ever could, but do remember this is very much a “non-bar owner” point of view.   If you’re in the bar owner camp, things may be different, but not many bar owners visit my little site here as it’s mainly for us tourist mongers.

(Originally posted on AC2 by Norman)

“Lets not call it “AC” or “Angeles City” in these matters, as we can all understand that the City itself has little or nothing to do with the issues and concerns with the little dirty street of Fields and Perimeter Road and their bars.

The local residents in Angeles City have a shit-all concern about the bars on Fields or the foreign visitors it attracts. Most of the power-brokers in AC hold court in places like; Pink Lady, Juliana’s, Engrande, DunkShot, Tycoon, Sideline, Sakai, Models, and the various other KTV/GRO styled joints around AC that cater to the Pinoy upper class. The middle-class converge on the joints on Aniceto Gueco St, passing through Bonifacio on the way to Marquee Mall and the NLEX.

The dregs used to hang out on “Crossing” which used to be mid-town AC, on
Rizal St, between Henson St. and P.Deguzman St. parallel to the rail-tracks. That crown has now set up shop, ironically on that service road running parallel to Lower Fields Avenue.

San Fernando has its share of hangouts to cater to all social classes as well, as does Dau/Mabalacat. For most of those folks, if Fields and it’s bars picked up and blew away bukas, they wouldn’t give a shit.

Look at all the construction and RenoVirus that has hit many places in Angeles city in the last 2 years. Do you think that has any reason to do with the mongers on Fields? Nothing whatsoever and doesn’t even cater to them. There are many Fil-Ams retiring now and moving back to settle in AC, and THAT’S what the explosion of building is all about. Look no farther than Marquee Mall on any evening and especially on the weekend. You will hear more “Americano” spoken by more Filipinos that you can imagine.

AC is slowly becoming like a mini Alabang-wanaabe. The San Fernando Crowd that is now tired of the aging “scene” in San Fernando is hopping on the NLEX with their EC-Tags to leisure in AC. The Fontana Resort is fully booked on a regular basis. Koreans are flooding to play golf and gamble in the Casinos on Clark and in AC.

These groups don’t give a flying fuck about either the entertainment district or the expats in AC.
So, getting that issue out of the way…..to whom do the bars matter?

Well, of course to the bargirls all stranded in AC from the Probince, and of course to the employees of the hotels and restaurants (who by the way, aren’t really NOT overemployed in the pig picture) but the folks who would suffer most from the demise of the bars are…..

a. City Hall – with all it’s licenses, permits, fees, hygiene fees, ID fees….the bars are one massive tit from which to milk fees from. That vast number of different bars with so many employees confined in such a small area of AC, is a gold-nest of FEES for them.
b. The Trikes – yes, our biggest foes are actually are biggest fans. If the bars closed, the Trike Driver association would rain terror on City Hall. This isn’t like the National Government closing Clark. This is City Hall directly cutting off their daily bread!
c. The vendors & beggar syndicates are more powerful than you imagine. Drying up their income base will piss them off mighty bad.

City Hall would be committing a PR suicide if they closed all the bars on Fields/Perimeter. They are the only ones with the legal authority to do it via a City Ordinance. The PNP, NBI, CIDG, DSWD simply cannot legally either convict or close the bars. That fact has been repeatedly proven through the various raids and circumstances over the recent years.

Yes, they can be blind to “justice” and hold some folks for undetermined times, but they cannot do shit all. I think that R.Kelly and his cohorts….like him or not….is actually the first bar-guy to actually put his foot down and not take their shit any more. He is not paying off the cops to get his release, but is FINALLY holding his ground and telling them to go and fuck themselves and charge him, which they are not, cause they have no legal grounds to.

Legally, they cannot charge anyone having to do with any girlie bar for trafficking….when the fucking bar has permits and licenses up to the hilt issued by the local City Hall! There is an entire legal and official “system” set up for those bars on Fields. City Hall treats them like a legitimate, legal and official business establishment with documented, licensed, permit-clad employees, so legally they cannot be latched with any trafficking charge, and neither can their customers. Period. No argument. No contest. The Supreme Court of the Philippines itself couldn’t do anything about it.

Lim closed the bars in Ermita without any cops, NBI, PNP, CIDG, DSWD hoodlums. He did it through his City Hall. He drafted an ordinance which ids-allowed girlie-bars, and that was it. He tried pulling in off again with LA Café, and look what happened…..a little while later…it back in business again. Do you think for a moment that those NGO Groups are THAT stupid not to notice that after any establishment is “raided” and its “victims” rescued…that it soon reopens with the same “victims” back at work again? Do you think that they don’t follow up with those supposedly “rescued” and quickly discover that the entire raid and rescue was a sham?

Notice how it is often some “new” or “different” NGO name that is crying for Raid & Rescue missions. How quickly are they disillusioned, give up and disappear.

The “authorities” do the raids for PR and for payouts. The PR trail is running kinda dry as folks are more aware of the truth of what is going on than ever before. The payouts…well….let’s hope R.Kelly and anyone else stick to their guns.

Just because the CIDG goons don’t have any legal grounds, it doesn’t mean that they cannot try to give someone a hard time. Its all a matter of who blinks first. I hope for R.Kelleys sake that he has someone on the outside who is yanking he goons legally and publicly. Someone is gonna cave, and my bets are it is going to be the authorities.

On a similar note, do you thing the authorities can impress anyone by raiding three bars under seemingly the same ownership while ignoring all the rest? Give me a fucking break. Those NGO and the public sure as heck ain’t THAT stupid. It is obvious to EVERYONE that is a sheer setup/shakedown/extortion.

The USA took the PI off its list for Trafficking concerns……why?…..because of the goons raiding 4 bars and almost immediately releasing everyone? Bullshit!

Sure the raids will stop for a few months until everyone forgets about the recent embarrassing fiasco, ad then they will hit one or several bars again and again and again…until they fuck with the wrong barowner/s and someone rams ENOUGH! up their asses. The Thais don’t even fuck with most bars the majority of time for a reason. They fear retribution and know when to lay still. They have been taught the hard way. The PI folks are due for such a lesson.

If you don’t want the fucking foreigner bars, then fucking close them. Stop barking around and biting their toes. Formally charge someone, convict them in a court of law and jail them, or fucking shut up. Angeles City will NEVER become a “wholesome family tourist destination” so wake up and accept the fact. You can’t even handle your garbage problem, the highest electricity charge in the entire Asean region, and even the trike-fares!

Close all the bars for good or leave them alone. Let them commit their own suicide with their 300php LDs and 3000/4000php Barfines and their ping-pong balls and poppers. The Cell-Sneakout is already the prime currency in AC. The girls don’t give a fuck anymore and the customers are reaping the benefit.

You wanna build mega-bars? You get Mega-Problems. Way to go Richard!”

So true.

Summer is in full swing and so is the hustle and bustle on Fields and Perimeter.  Plenty of fun to be had if you know how and where to look.  Sure prices are higher than ever, but so are prices with everything everywhere.   Like the ABC Hotel slogan says, “You only live once!”   So true.  Stay horny, my friends.
