HI Gilaine! Glad to hear from you again! The issue about getting appointment from DFA has been escalated. Hopefully, things will get better soon. By the way, I just found out that when you have a family member working for government or you yourself is a govt. employee, you need not to have an appointment in DFA. You can process your passport right there and then. Well, Dumaguete is a great place. Happy you enjoyed it somehow! :D
Glad to hear that it has been escalated however got mine processed already. =)
Sadly I don't have any relatives working in the Government but that's okay thank you for your comment. =)
