>I would agree with you on Zambales, beautiful and clean. Now, applying that to Subic and Olongapo would be another matter - unless things have changed somewhat. Can't beat Olongapo for the night life, however! My wife and I enjoyed our years there immensely, and still recall our experiences there from time to time. Good luck to you and yours.

Subic and Olongapo is longer the same since the first was converted into a Free Port Zone. Night life has been subsided drastically. The bad thing that happened in Subic was that the present government replaced Dick Gordon as the SBMA Chairman by a seemingly corrupt official. God save the Philippines...
