I was waiting for a friend at near Abellana High School to get my press pass for Sinulog when I saw a boy dropping a coin in one of this machine.
I got curious I looked at it really cracked me up when I saw ATM!!!!

I agree jakbkk What the country needs is an ACDs Automated Condom Dispenser (tingi) in every corner if not in every school & offices comfort rooms urban & rural areas . Privatized or can also be sponsored by the Goverment & Phamaceutical Companies. We have to think of the next GENERATION. It is a pity to see kids running around naked in flea markets and who knows if they can even afford a clean water to drink or have a clean bath. ATM (tingi) …should have been free especially for kids.

“ATootM’s”? that’s very original, MM!!! nice insight on this post, by the way – especially on (dirty) hands touching the spouts, garbage problems, etc… i think this is the new generation’s, “water in a sachet” a.k.a. your friendly sari-sari store’s “iced water”… hahaha…

hey, ATMs? they’re quite popular in the poor communities here in the metro, I’ve been seeing a lot of these contraptions for the past 3 years I think.

i first saw this in leveriza st. near the corner of buendia, a few years back. i always found it funny, as we filipinos have a penchant for puns in business names.

I think our gov’t agencies should have these ATMs for standard gov’t transactions both locally and nationally. They stand to earn millions yet would cut costs on gov’t salaries or graft. On a national level, the DTI business name or on the local level, business clearances. Even for POEA or police or NBI clearances. Just something to ponder on.
