Annoyances – Part 1: Incredibly loud PA systems.

Whenever announcements are made or music is played it is always done really loudly. So loud that often the words or music are distorted by the volume. During our time here we have been to several parties and the volume of music being played is a negative they have all had in common. It becomes impossible to talk or hear anyone else speak. These very loud PA systems can spring into action at any given moment, we have occasionally been woken up very early by screaming Karaoke from the local neighbourhood.   The  Filipinos just don't seem to be able to use volume controls responsibly!
