Why our Dive Industry does not get too much exposure in North America?

[pakman]

and still a few american companies give "Hardship" to the employees being posted in Singapore!!!????

how about hardship pay to work in Tokyo? LOL... Yes Mr. Big Boss in NY, I really need that $5-10K monthly housing allowance to survive in that rough and tumble world of Tokyo, go shopping at western supermarkets like Nat'l Azabu and... oh of course, please don't forget the American Club membership

PPD'ers - See what I mean.....we are not doing a good of selling our product

DennisS - "Oceanographic tech" and you didn't know we had the best diving in the world!?!? Well, we do. Catch the next thing smoking to Manila and we'll hook you up!!

I can pretty much find my way anywhere around the world. I've never dove or travelled the Philippines, it's on my list of things to do with an accompanied guide.

My point is that there are a lot of people that don't even know that it exists as a dive destination.

Pak, back in the day when you were just a measly worker, not the king pin mail boy, you started off with 2 weeks holiday, everyone does until they are a job for at least 2 or 3 years. 2 weeks = 10 working days off.... Canada and US

Now you get about 45 weeks off i think.. plus SB time...

45 weeks? hmmm... is that what you get now in Bali? I thought it was 52 weeks :mooner:
