Worst Embassy in the whole world answer Philippine Embassy here in Qatar

@ garnet, I'm also waiting for the reason/s.

Because my experiences in dealing with Phil. Embassy (about 4 times) were normal ones. Normal means: you have to be there 30 minutes or earlier before it opens to get into the line, you have to wait for your turn, you have to fill up the form/s required, you have to bring all the requirements and supporting documents. The only thing that pisses me is the Charge per Document.

I don't want the blah blah blah of the person in-charge affects me as long as i get what i came for. Because, at the end of the day you will deal with them again sooner or later with no other way.

As Garnet says "WHY".

Its your personal opinion alright... we have our own ipinion as well right? besides we are in a forum... all we are trying to ask you is "WHY" labelling such as

"Worst Embassy in the whole world" there must be a reason right?

It is not good to point a certain person or people and dragged their organization or nationality as a whole. We all are unique just like you and me. The only way to change their outlook is to affirm these people in every way or another. "We cannot control other people but We can control ourselves".

it's not fair to simply say that and then hide on the cloak of freedom of expression.

in the first place, there was no mention or explanation of why say it is (phil embassy) worst.

so why say that?

what everyone complaint about the OP is labeling our embassy as worst in the whole world? We all agree that our embassy has bad service and no one contradict that. What we question is labeling it as compared to ALL embassies, precisely the question if he has gone to ALL? Good afternoon, cutie!

As compared to which embassies in the world Einsteincult? They may not have the best customer service but to label them as the worst embassy "in the whole world" would not be fair especially when you have not given specifications regarding your experience and if you haven't been to most of other countries' embassies as well.

Based on my personal experience, 5 times in a row, they were very efficient and professional. I applied for visa 5 times, and there were no delays or any other issues. My wife had to change her passport, and she got it within 30 days as promised. Perhaps the staff has changed, or the influx of people, or may be just the situation which wasn't dealt appropriately. But naming them in one of the worst embassies, I wouldn't support it. Wish good luck to the OP and hope similar issues will not be faced by fellow citizens.

So to the OP would you please tell us the reason you said that the Philippine Embassy in Doha is the worst in the whole universe?

WTG johnnkarl & garnet..we all know that Phil Embassy is not much of a help for us OFWs, whether here in Doha or in any other place. i lived in UAE for almost 10 years and I know how it feels being ignored at our embassy there but there are times that they do help, I had some experiences that I really get an assistance from our embassy. I guess it depends on the person/staff working on your case, some staff (government or not) are lazy and rude we have to admit that but there are also helpful & approachable staff working at the embassy.

maybe instead of whining about our embassy why not write them a letter stating your concerns and make some suggestions how they can improve their services, in that way not only you will benefit from the changes but also your other kababayans :)

chillax!

Did you see how many Filipinos goes to the Philippine embassy Doha everyday?

Do you know how the civil servants try their best to accommodate everybody?

Please explain how you came to judge as the worst embassy? Was it because they did not accept your bribe to get the job done faster? or were your documents rejected because you did not comply with all the requirements?

You cannot come to a conclusion without a basis.

I guess being here for 19 years have caused you to loose your values and respect for others. Shame on you.. return your passport and seek another citizenship coz we are not proud to have you as fellow Filipino.

All I can say most government employee specially who are in front of customer care services whether in Phil. Emabssy or in any other government offices here in Qatar - should all go to customer service workshop so they can learnt of how to be polite and pleasant in assisting distress overseas workers. We are just tag 'worst airport' please see below link http://www.sleepinginairports.net/worst-airports.htm

your freedom of expression should be exercised in the right venue where the 'worst embassy' can hear you. badmouthing our own in the presence of other nationalities is certainly NOT the first step in solving this problem.

Friend , Its true that it will bounce back to us the thing that you wrote Mr. Einsteincult. But in realty majority of the personnels of our embassy are not giving a good service to those people who needs help!!!!

yeah right, btw have you been to the whole world? have you asked those people you saw in the souq to look at the mirror first, before they blame the Philippine Embassy?

looks like another crab mentality moron harharharharharharhar

Let us just understand his feeling, maybe einsteincult suffered a distressing experience dealing with our embassy here in doha reason why he called it the "worst embassy in the world". I agree with another QLer's Bondying to share your so-called "nightmarish" experience so we may learn from it. I have never been in the Phil.Embassy in my more than 6 yrs of stay here, no plan or dream to transact with them as much as possible since i personally heard some sad stories of our kabayans who sought help or refuge form our so-called "honorable diplomatic personnel" stationed here.

That sucks! To label an embassy as the worst would be very offensive indeed not just for that particular agency but also for the people it caters to. And talk about freedom of expression, why not reserve your god-given talent of expression to suggesting a solution to the problem instead of being part of the problem itself.

"Worst Embassy in the whole world" for you to say this.. you should have some comparison to other embassies... have you been to other embassies? and for you to stay here for 19years? still surprised?

By einsteincult• 1 Nov 2011 02:42

I DONT HAVE ANY RELATIVE, FRIEND OR EVEN NEIGHBOUR WORKING IN THE PHILIPPINE EMBASSY. BEFORE YOU COMMENT THAT THE PHILIPPINE EMBASSY IS THE WORST EMBASSY IN WHOLE WORLD, I WOULD LIKE TO ASK YOU SOMETHING, HAVE YOU TRIED TO GO TO ALL THE EMBASSY HERE IN QATAR? HAVE YOU TRIED THEIR SERVICES? THE ANSWER IS "NO" RIGHT!. MAYBE ONLY THE PHILIPPINE EMBASSY IS THE ONLY ONE YOU TRIED. AM I CORRECT. JUST A SUGGESTION, YOU HAVE TO TRY FIRST ALL THE SERVICES OF DIFFERENT EMBASSY HERE IN QATAR THEN COMPARE IT WITH THE SERVICE OF PHILIPPINE EMBASSY. IF IT IS STILL THE WORST, THEN YOUR PART OF IT. IF THERE IS WORST, THERE SHOULD ALSO BE GREAT EMBASSY, BUT AS I HAVE SAID, YOU ONLY TRIED THE SERVICES OF ONE EMBASSY WHICH IS THE PHILIPPINE EMBASSY. TRY THE OTHER EMBASSY THEN COMPARE THEIR SERVICES....THATS THE TIME YOU WILL SAY THAT THE PHILIPPINE EMBASSY IS THE WORST EMBASSY IN THE WHOLE WORLD...

any link or is it just your own opinion? well at least for me,i've been only in south-african embassy and phil.embassy,and if i will compare these two,south-african embassy is far better especially when it comes to service,they are very approachable and accommodating unlike in phil. embassy..but i don't believe that phil.embassy here in qatar is the worst embassy in the whole world coz i have never been to any other embassies except Phils and SA..
