A shocking news came to the citizens of Bunawan town in Agusan del Sur. Their town's most popular resident died on January 10, 2013 at 8 in the evening.

Nylon Cord is the Culprit

According to Rowena Elorde, special spokeperson of Bunawan Municipal Government, Lolong swallowed a nylon cord. This caused chronic diarrhea and made the crocodiles stomach to swell.

It was not said where Lolong got the nylon cord or who is responsible for negligence.

It was expected that “animal rights” group will protest the death of Lolong.

Lolong was captured on September 2011 and was named after the crocodile hunter Ernesto “Lolong” Coñate. Lolong was declared by Guiness Book of World Records as the longest crocodile in captivity last 2012. He dethroned Australia's Cassius.

Cassius Regained Throne

The death of Lolong, the giant buwaya, means that Australia's Cassius will regain his spot as the biggest saltwater crocodile in captivity.

How to Get Discount News from TigerAirways

I flew via Cebu Pacific, AirPhil Express, ZestAir and Philippine Airlines so much that I thought they are the only airlines that fly to the different destinations in the Philippines. I was surprised that my boss booked a flight at TigerAirways for our trip to Subic.

TigerAirways is one of the many budget airlines that are popping out like mushrooms in the airline industry. The competition between budget airlines is so fierce that they are topping one another in offering discount flights to travelers.

One night, my Beloved discovered a one (1)-peso discount fare from TigerAirways. After booking a flight, we discovered that TigerAirway's 1-peso discount fare cost less (after adding the taxes and surcharges) that the 1-peso discount fare of Cebu Pacific that we booked in the past.

Because of this, I decided that I should subscribe to notifications of discount fares from TigerAirways.

Step 1: I went to the TigerAirways website and clicked on the “e-deals sign up” button encircled red on the image below:

Step 2: Since I am cheapskate, I just clicked on the “Sign me up just to receive your regular e-newsletters” link. See the pop-up window on the image below.

.

You can also opt to join the Stripes but you should have a $29.95 to pay the yearly subscription fee. Joining the stripes is recommended for those who travel very frequently.

Step 3: I then fill-up my name, e-mail address, mobile number and other contact number on the form. I then clicked the “Request for subscription” buttong after I filled-up the form.

Step 4: I then go to my e-mail and checked my inbox for the confirmation message sent by TigerAirways. I clicked on the link found in the confirmation message to finally verify my subscription to TigerAirways e-deals.

.

I know that confirmation is  successful because I read this on the the TigerAirways website:
