Opportunity screening - be wary of many "opportunities" - they could be fraught with risks too

New ideas create better quality of life and wealth

                                           Hahaha when I searched Google on Opportunity screening,
                                           many  of the images and  work were from me... Wow

I could be taken in by KFR gang if some body would invite me for a land tripping or a business plan presentation

Yesterday, I got urgent phone calls from a branch that said somebody is going to buy cash  4 block of plots amounting to no less than P50 million pesos.  Allegedly, a retired colonel would meet me at a southern Luzon province/city because he will buy in cash the said number of plots for a group of Jews who would want to have their own cemetery. They want to bury their dead in 24 hours without embalming (just like the Muslims who want to be buried before sundown)



While I asked a number of questions, they were not enough to screen the proposal.  I met with the colonel and he looked very pleasant. We showed him the site.

It turned out that he will not be buying but will broker the  deal with the Jews who will be arriving on the  10th of November.  They will see the site on November 16


There are about 18,000 Jews residing in the Philippines.  Many were saved in theVisayas, about 1,300 of them in l940s were accepted as refugees.  Now during typhoon Yolanda, many sent in relief as sign of gratitude to a place that saved them way back.  The Jews are grateful because they believe that saving a thousand lives is just like saving the  whole nation

The rescue was planned by Pres Manuel Quezon, High Commissioner Paul MacNutt, Dwight Eishenhower, and tobacco maker Friedler over a poker game.   Quezon planned to save 10,000 more but the war overtook the Philippines

There was a movie made, Rescue in the Philippines, maybe just like the Oscar Awardee Schindlers List

I burned two deals with two ex military officials.   Hindi na natuto
