It's just crazy that the government agency in charge of promoting SCUBA in the Philippines doesn't maintain a comprehensive up to date list of the local recompression chambers. (I didn't find on online either.)
It’s a government agency of a non-affluent Asian country - what do you expect? Maybe a few years down the line a retiring government employee will notice and decide to do good on the last day of his job… :rofl3:

In my country (also known as an IT “superpower”), government websites are some of the worst (beginning with UI/UX design) and look like something from the 80s but written by a high school kid still struggling with coding and a brain that doesn’t comprehend the larger picture - So much that navigating them make me want to throw up in disgust. The only exceptions being a few notable globally renowned successes like the digital payments infrastructure.

Reading all the recent posts about bad experiences with insurance and bent divers, I am glad I finally got a credit card after years of never possessing one. I feel really lucky now that I never got bent in the first 10 years of my diving without a credit card. I think a CC should be on the default top of the list of any SCUBA gear recommendation discussions.

PS: Primary Insurer only means you don’t need (in legal speak) an existing Insurance cover from another agency. Not to be confused with words like primacy or superior or whatever…
