What is the color of your passport?
If you're a Filipino/Filipina, you might answer green. That is right.
But there is another correct answer too. It is maroon.
DFA has started issuing this new one since July of 2007. But I only knew about it about a month ago when I went to process some documents at Philippines Embassy here in KL.
The new passport is machine readable. And according to them it is designed with new security features to prevent tampering and enhance its integrity.
Sounds good.
However I am not about to get a new one. Mine expires on 2011. It is still a long time from now. I can still use the old one until it expires.
It's just nice to know we have a new passport color and features. If somebody asks what color is my passport, I know how to answer. :)

Nice site you got here. When I read ur profile, gahd! I feel like your my "elder" sister I never had. I also have an expat hubby and now I am a first time preggy mom. And we are also of the same age (sorry na sa "elder" wehehe). I hope I can have a free seminar with you sa pagiging mom. wehehe.
Re the passport: Feeling ko obsolete yung akin kasi green pa ung sa akin ;)
ahem... you're so creative... :)
that means, our passport's color will be the same like that of malaysian passport? kasi maroon din sa kanila.
btw - sunday afternoon coffee good for you?
@Duskfading - Thank you :) Free seminar? Hahaha, I have a lot to learn pa din. Everyday is a challenge.
Janet - Yeah, maroon na. Are you still using a Philippine passport?
re sunday coffee: not too sure about sunday, i'll u know soon though :)
whenever i go to indonesia, i always get mistaken for an indonesian with my green passport.
perhaps when i get the new maroon one, i could get mistaken for an indian national? haha!
janet: malaysian passports are bright red. the new maroon colour is a bit on the brownish side.
