In this situation, the most economical and scientific way is to quickly find someone to find connections to save the situation.
Industry insiders call it "rescuing people" within one hour. If it takes more than one hour and a repatriation order has been issued, it's another kind of business called "fishing for people." Don't underestimate this name change, the cost is huge.
6. Visa on arrival to enter the Philippines
