Testing Filipino Psychic Surgeons
Patrick Hamouy asked:
A Psychic Surgeon enters a person’s body using his / her bare hands and manually removes diseased tissues, tumours, calcium deposits, pus etc… Painlessly from a patient’s body, coming out without leaving any visible marks or scars.
But how can you be sure that a Psychic Surgeon is genuine?
Biased TV reports continuously portray these Psychic Surgeons as cheats. Magicians are hired to (badly) attempt to mimic what genuine Psychic Surgeons do. This is a pitiful imitation of these amazing healers by ignorant people who have never witnessed a genuine Psychic Surgeon at work and have never bothered to research the truth for themselves. These magicians could easily be caught cheating if you used the following testing method on them.
I have worked with over 40 different Psychic Surgeons since 1997 and I have only retained 4. These 4 I believe to be genuine. The others I let go as they were either cheating, not powerful enough or unethical. Be very careful if you go to Philippines on your own. Most people who have tried this came back very disappointed.
How I test the Psychic Surgeons I work with
1- I must be allowed to walk around the couch when he/she is working
2- I must be allowed to check under and around the couch for hidden props
2- He must show me his empty hands before he touches his client and without touching anything, he must start his treatment
3- If a group is present with me, we must all be allowed to film the surgery from front, back, above and sides
If a surgeon can pass these tests, this is a good start but there is more…
It may be possible to feel a tumour in a person’s body with your hand before surgery is performed. If after the surgery you can only feel a hole where the tumour was, then it is certain that the tumour has been removed.
One of the surgeons I take groups to proceeds to energise our hands and then moves the tip of our index finger over our body. Blood appears under our own finger as it is moved. Not when the surgeon’s finger moves, but when our own finger moves. How can this be faked?
Some of the tumours removed by the most gifted surgeon are the size of a fist. How could this be hidden from us as the surgeon has not touched anything but his patient’s body since showing us his hands?
How do Filipino fake Psychic Surgeons work?
First, they will not allow you to check them the way I described above.
They will usually keep you at a safe distance and you may not be allowed to film.
They often have a sheet hanging over the sides of the couch and you will not be allowed to check what is under it.
The great shame about all this cheating by fake surgeons or by the wrong portraying by ignorant magicians is that desperate people in search of life saving healing get coned or mislaid.
It is sad that often people go to Philippines when they are desperate because modern medicine has not helped them. It would be much easier for a genuine Psychic Surgeon to help them at the beginning of their illness as opposed to try to help them at the end of it when their body may be saturated with tumours.
I am often asked by potential visitors to the Philippines if a Psychic Surgeon can heal such or such disease or health condition.
My answer always is that there is no implicit or explicit guarantee that a surgeon can heal any specific condition. But I have seen people coming back from the Philippines cured from all types of disease. But once again, I must reiterate that nobody can guarantee healing by a Psychic Surgeon. If they do, stay away from them.

Cebu; Central Visayan Metropolis – Philippines
Peter Garant asked:
Region 7 in the Philippines is characterized as central Visayas with places such as Dumaguete, Bohol, Siquijor and most importantly Cebu. Cebu is one of the biggest cities in the Visayas and it is the ultimate trade city of the south. Cebu is the oldest city in the Philippines and has the only International Airport in the Visayas which makes Cebu an important metropolis in the Visayas.
The native language of the Philippines is Tagalog, but the native language of Cebu is Cebuano, which is also spoken in other places such as Bohol, Leyte, Negros Oriental and parts of Mindanao. Every city in the Philippines has a patron saint and the patron saint of Cebu happens to be Our Lady of Guadalupe. There are many religious events in Cebu and the saint that is widely used by the natives is Santo Niño de Cebu. A whole festival is dedicated to him, called the Sinulog which is celebrated every January with street shows and dances.
Cebu is the center of economic activity in the central Visayas. The total investments, export and import of Cebu city totals an amount of an estimated 10 Million US dollars, which makes Cebu a powerful metropolis. Cebu has big industries including electronic, computer, food processing and most importantly mining and shipping industries. When you take a bus to Cebu city you will see the big coal mines near the sea and you will even drive underneath a mining company that is situated alongside the highway. Most of the shipping industries are located in Cebu which makes this metropolis the most and easiest accessible city in the Philippines. National and International shipping is going through Cebu and the city earns millions just from the shipping taxes and toll taxes.
Other multimillion business chances can be found in the Mactan International Airport at Mactan City, Cebu. This International Airport gives access to all the trade opportunities in Asia, Europe and the US. Cebu is also the home of the International Convention Center in which the 12th ASEAN summit has been held where world leaders congregated. This shows that Cebu is already the international metropolis that it should be. The education in Cebu is also very international. The first International Academy of Film and Television has been established in Mactan, Cebu in 2004 and is the only international film school in the Central Visayas.
The central Visayas also have a big network of print media and broadcasting media. Cebu itself has three local newspapers that are published daily and several other little tabloids and community newspapers. Broadcasting outlets are also numerous in the queen city of the south. Cebu has three television stations that can be accessed through cable and a total of 23 radio stations with 13 AM radio stations and 20 FM radio stations. This is just another proof that Cebu City is not only the oldest city in the Philippines, but also one of the richest and economically stronger cities in the Philippines.
You can also find many historical monuments in this central Visayan city. One of the most important and often visited monuments is the Magellan’s Cross. Magellan’s Cross can be found in a small chapel that is located next to the Basilica Minore del Santo Niño, which is fronting Cebu’s city hall. Cebu has something for everybody; good food, great malls for shopping, and monuments for your cultural desires. Cebu will be unlike any other city you can visit in the Central Visayas.

Visit Hong Kong – Pearl Of The Orient
Wolfgang Jaegel asked:
Hong Kong, also referred to as the ‘Pearl of the Orient,’ is perhaps the most popular tourist destination in the Southeast Asia. Until the arrival of the British in 1842, it was just a typical small village.
In 1997, Hong Kong was handed over to China, under the policy ‘one country, two systems.’ The city has now become one of the vibrant as well as s sought after destinations not only in Asia but also in the world.
Bordered by the South China Sea and Sea, Hong Kong, al though a part of China, is different from rest of China. With its own government, stamps, and laws and regulations, the city consists of four geographic areas, such as, the New Territories, Hong Kong Island, Kowloon Peninsula, and the Outlying Islands, all of them packed with a plethora of attractions and facilities.
It also consists of more than 200 islands, which consist of both small and tiny islands. In addition, Hong Kong is much famed for its superb deep water harbors. According to the survey conducted by the World Tourism Organization, the city has been ranked among the 15 most preferred tourist destinations in the world.
An incredible city blending the best from the East and West, Hong Kong’s attractions, among many others, are Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre with its unique curved three-tier roof and glass walls; the covered Central-Mid level Escalator, which is the longest in the world; and Hollywood Road, packed with a range of antique and curio shops selling Buddha statues, Japanese specialties like ikebana baskets, Chinese furniture, and snuff and perfume bottles.
Despite these attractions, perhaps the most famed attraction of the city is Victoria Peak, from whose summit you can gaze down to enjoy the wonderful vistas of skyscrapers and Victoria Harbor. During nights, the sights from the peak become more dazzling.
Also, of special significance are the temples of the region. Since Buddhism being the most popular religion of the place, Hong Kong has to its credit more than 400 temples, each of which is regarded as not to be a missed tourist attraction.
One of the most prominent Buddhist shrines is the Chi Lin Nunnery, located in Kowloon. Considered a living museum of the Tang Dynasty, it has been stunningly renovated in the traditional Tang-era architecture with several magnificent Buddhist halls. Another popular Buddhist shrine is Po Lin Monastery, whose focal point is a bronze statue of the Lord Buddha, which is the largest in the world. In addition to Buddhist shrines, the place also consists of several other popular shrines such as St John’s Cathedral, which is considered to be the oldest in the Far East and Shelley Street Mosque, which is noted for its minaret of green and white colors.
A visit to Hong Kong would be incomplete without taking a tour to many of its fascinating museums, showcasing unique art and antiquities representing several aspects of the place such as its history, film industry, space and science, and coastal defense. Some of the most visited museums in the region are Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware, Hong Kong Film Archive, Hong Kong Museum of Medical Sciences, Hong Kong Racing Museum, Hong Kong Planning and Infrastructure Exhibition Gallery, and Hong Kong Visual Arts Centre.
Attractions also include a continuum of beautiful beaches, including Repulse Bay, the most spectacular among the city’s beaches; Deep Water Bay, which is connected by a pathway to the Repulse Bay Beach; Turtle Cove, a tranquil beach; Golden Beach, the first artificial beach in Hong Kong; and Hung Shing Yeh – a marvelous beach on the Lamma Island.
Also, the gastronomy of the place is amazing, with specialized areas for enjoying remarkable delicacies, like, SoHo with a variety of restaurants serving international cuisine; Gage Street, dotted with an array of stalls, from where one can enjoy the best of Hong Kong style cuisines comprising noodles, soups, pastries, and herbal teas; and floating style restaurants found in Aberdeen.
Apart from this, excellent options are available for shopping, with areas like Lyndhurst Terrace packed with shops selling ancient paintings and maps; Stanley Street, considered a paradise for shopping cameras and film accessories; and Li Yuen Streets, dotted with shops selling knick-knacks, leather items, and casual wear.
With these fabulous attractions and options to enjoy a variety of activities, tourists flock to Hong Kong all year round. No matter you want budget or luxury accommodation, the city has options to cater to all types of tourists. Majority of the hotels and resorts are located within the heart of the city, and hence are within easy reach of almost all top tourist attractions.
Nowadays, many of the hotels, both budget and luxury accommodation, have their own sites on the web, which in turn enables the visitors to check price and room as well as make bookings in advance.
