But perhaps the call of showbiz was just too irresistible and before TA knew it, she was already swamped with television and movie projects. Among today's celebrities, TA stands out not only for her beauty and exceptional talents, but also for her professionalism and charm. Fellow stars who have worked with TA have only good words for her as she is friendly, soft spoken and sweet - a rarity in today's celebrities.
But for the movie that she was part of, TA was pissed that she and fellow-actor were required to promote the movie in all media - television, radio, print - apart from promoting it on their social media accounts. She found it so tiring that they had to promote all day, every single day in almost all the major shows. TA was quite displeased because she almost did not make it to her scheduled vacation because of the overwhelming post-movie work. What made it more frustrating was that for all the strenuous work for the movie, she had yet to get paid! How bad is that?

Below are two updates and official statements from the Philippines Bureau of Immigration

BI to file assault charges against unruly tourist
Manila, Philippines — The Bureau of Immigration is mulling on filing direct assault charges against a lady Chinese tourist after she reportedly slapped an employee of the Bureau in an incident at the Ninoy Aquino International airport last May 5.
Maan Pedro, spokesperson of the Bureau of Immigration identified the tourist as Ms. Jiang Huixiang, 38 years old and a resident of China.
In a report submitted by Nelson Valdez, duty immigration supervisor, Ms. Huixiang arrived in the country via a Cebu Pacific flight 5J672 from Beijing China. Ms. Huixiang appeared before the immigration counter and submitted her passport.
When the Immigration Officer at the counter noticed that she has multiple extensions since 2012, she was referred for secondary inspection. After establishing that Huixiang is in violation of immigration laws by working without permit, the officer calmly and respectfully informed her that she cannot be allowed entry into the country. According to reports, Huixiang immediately shouted in front of the Filipino immigration official.
At this instance, Rashid Rangiris, an on-duty confidential agent of the Bureau, approached her and asked her to calm down, but instead of doing so, Ms. Huixiang reportedly screamed and hurled invectives against the bureau employee.
Huixiang was causing so much commotion that airline personnel and other immigration intelligence employees got near her and asked her to go back to the exclusion room. However, Huixiang adamantly refused and shouted back at the astonished immigration agents. Then, she lay down flatly to the floor, and stopped breathing. Witnesses say, Ms. Huixiang appeared as if she was trying to kill herself.
Before reaching the door of the BI exclusion room, the Chinese national again got wild and started to kick Rangiris causing some contusion to his body, prompting him to retaliate.
Rangiris appeared to use reasonable force to drive her towards the nearby rest room where she eventually calmed down.
This developed as an on-duty lady security guard Delisia Yap disclosed that Huixiang became unruly that early morning when she suddenly pushed her red hard case from the exclusion room to the airport’s transfer lobby.
Yap attested that the Chinese national suddenly became hysterical and even threw her bag at her.
Yap added that when a colleague grasped Huixiang’s hands, the latter suddenly bit the right hand of the guard.
Huixiang claimed that she has been working as a teacher on a tourist visa since 2012, thus she was considered improperly documented at the point of entry by Immigration Officers. She added that her travel document has admission and multiple extensions and she is working as mandarin language teacher.
The Bureau has committed to the Chinese Consul General Qiu Jian that the Bureau will conduct a thorough investigation of the incident in view of possible administrative charges against concerned involved.
When Huixiang was escorted to board another flight the next day, she again caused disturbance, prompting airline authorities to deny her boarding. She was then boarded the following day back to Beijing.

BI EMPLOYEE ON PREVENTIVE SUSPENSION
Pending the results of an ongoing investigation, a Bureau of Immigration employee was relieved from his post and advised not to report to work for the meantime after being involved in an incident with an excluded Chinese national at NAIA Terminal 3 last 05 May 2014.
Rashid Rangiris, a contractual employee of the Bureau assigned at the Intelligence Division, retaliated when Jiang Huixiang, an excluded Chinese national hit and kicked him after he tried to escort her back to the exclusion room in Terminal 3. Prior to this, the Chinese national also bit the right hand of another security personnel who tried to restrain her from making any more aggression.
While the foreigner was clearly directly assaulting persons in authority and has committed immigration violations, the concerned BI employee may be facing administrative charges for not following standard operating procedure and code of conduct.
