No Wang-Wang in the Airport

The Philippines continues to surprise me daily. This sign at the airport was a nice reminder that I probably only understand about 45% of what is going on around me. According to this article, "wang-wang" is a term for sirens used by rich people to get through traffic. At the airport, it basically means that no one is too important to wait in line. The website, "The Guide to Sleeping in Airports" rated Manila's  Terminal 1 as the worst airport in the world in 2011, and the worst airport in Asia in 2012. Honestly, I was so excited to go home that I didn't think it was that bad. Maybe in the past it was worse with all that wang-wang.
