we came via hongkong, from phils me and my 4 yrs old son because of this st*&%&* people in qatar embassy in phils about rules and regulation they don't even know how to handle it. anyway, to cut the long story short. i leave them alone. i took a 3 days tour to hongkong and the time we arrive we just waited for out flight to qatar no question ask. you might be having problems in phils not hongkong. you have to armed yourself with a show money, accomdation vouchers, and all other kaikikan. i advice fly from subic airport more cheap. good luck. sorry to say these people making the rules, they don't even goes trial and error. for they are all waste of space and waste of time. why i say that because imagine telling me that we will go to qatar to work. while on my visa stated "HOUSEWIFE" and my son is "CHILD". imaging how st£$%%% they are???? hinanapan ba naman ng profession yun 4 yrs old. Nakakaloka.....
