		<description>Congratulations!

I just read this today and my best goodluck to you. 

Sounds like a very good plan for the money. In case you don&#039;t return, DOST gets the money. But If you are alive and have a decent job US side, you can return all the money you raised to your benefactors in no time at all. Circumstances may change along the way and many factors can change your mind not to go back and stay in the Philippines for good. I hope you also have an adequate life insurance in case you die before all your plans can come through. All the best.</description>

		<description>@Ai: I&#039;m not paying the amount. That&#039;s why I have a money back guarantee. They are only holding the money in case I try to run. If I do, they get all the money (i.e. I&#039;m dead, because it&#039;s not my money). When I get back, I get the money 1 month after my arrival. After that, my plan is to contact everyone who gave their money and return it with the interest it gained. Paraang coop!</description>

		<description>Pau, may tanong lang ako.  How come DOST is telling you that you can &quot;defer&quot; your service obligation provided that you pay them an amount equivalent sa itinulong nila sayo?  Di ba since nireimburse mo na lahat ng ginastos nila, dapat lang na di ka na nila i-require ng service obligation afterwards? :P  I&#039;m not saying na you shouldn&#039;t go back to serve our country.  Parang ang unfair lang na they&#039;re making you pay the full amount eh you&#039;re just asking na i-postpone muna yung obligation.</description>

		<description>Hi Mr. Urriza,

My sister told me you&#039;re currently teaching at UPD. Why don&#039;t you ask endorsement from UP? I had a similar problem last year 2006. Naka study leave ako for Ph.D. until 2012 and I&#039;m a DOST scholar-graduate like you.

Just write a request of endorsement, have it approved by your dept chair and college dean (c/o Mam Gev), then Chancellor. They should then write an endorsement letter, you bring it to DOST-SEI, and you should get your travel clearance endorsement within 3 days.
