Bar with dance floor and DJs, good prices. Guilly's is where many locals go, few farangs and not packed with hookers like Embassy and Rep.
I personally go there on Thursdays since Fri/Sat usually gets overcrowded.

the correct term in phils seems to be "poreigner." that of course means white guy who speaks at least decent english. black guys are "negros" or worse and then the others are talked about via nationality.

on d5 of my 14 day vacation I got bronchitis and the worst flu i've ever had. tomorrow is d13 and i'm just now getting back to like 60%. the hotel was so worried about me that the owner offered to drive me to the emergency room. he didn't know i'd already had two girls take me three days earlier. haha. awful luck. won't deter me from returning though.

White guys are 'kano' even if they'er not americano.

Black guys are 'itim' or 'egoy'. (offensive connotation)

Dayuhan or banyaga is the formal term for a foreigner.

White is 'puti'

I've heard black guys referred to as 'uling' (this is very racist, it means charcoal).

Maybe it the swastika carries other meanings, and connotations and conjures up different images, ideas in Asia cultures then it does in our western cultures. (hint : It Does.)

Therefor she can wear it in her own culture, without being thought of as racist.

Yes, it's a big culture shock for westerners though, to be sure.

I have had that happen few times, it does not deduct the money from your account, so your card should work at another machine.
