MANILA, Philippines - Warning: Bomb jokes remain strictly prohibited inside airports.

A Filipina learned this the hard way after she was arrested at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1 for telling airport screeners that she was carrying a bomb in her luggage.

Screener Lubis Tarcilla said passenger Zenaida Sangalang of Santa Rita, Batangas joked several times that she was carrying a bomb. The suspect was immediately detained and placed under investigation by the Philippine National Police Aviation Security Group as part of the airport's standard operations procedure.

Sangalang was set to board a Royal Dutch Airline KLM Flight 804 to Italy via Amsterdam. She said she was unaware that joking about explosives inside the airport was against the law.

Col. Manny Pintado said Sangalang's daughter will be allowed to board her flight.

Sangalang will be charged with violating Presidential Decree 1727, which penalizes all persons who issue false bomb threats.

Gagetz fud ning vayhana... hivalong vawal.... hahaha... kalooy fud... nauntsa baja fud... Na hala katawa na sa imo joke 

Arogante nga Pinay. I'm not surprised. People who joke about bombs at airports are usually arrogant. Good for her.

In addition to Mike, she is not only arrogant but so stupid to make such a joke with today's strict airport securities.

"Ignorance of the law excuses no one," being stupid is not an excuse either.

You're right, Wolfpack. Dugay na kaayo nang law prohibiting people from making bomb jokes at airports. That law is posted in conspicuous corners in airports.

basin first time pa to niyang naka give out ug joke unya ang bomb scare ang iyang napilian.

Hahaha      tawa ko tawa... pa-effect pud ning bayhana...hehehe... effective ha... she got the attention of the authorities     

Good to see that the Philippines is enforcing its laws , especially taking terrorist threats seriously. If this woman was in the United States and said that in American Soil in American airport premises, she would not only have been surrounded by American security, and anti-terrorist task squads within the airports. And subject to heavy punishment. This country is intolerant of terrorist threats.

How very unbecoming. She would joke like that in front of her countrymen and in front of her child. Does she not know the psychological processes of observational learning? Stupidity!

You reap what you sow. And she sowed idiocy, she reaps the justice of Philippine Law! Good!

gibuhian ra jud tawn siya after 4 hours. nitagam ang kanahan.

it was indeed idiocy, and its consequence, according to this statement, is that she got the idiocy of philippine law in equal measure.  in which case, a filipino some years back was also slapped with the idiocy of american law.  when the plane he was on was approaching a u.s. airport, he joked through his mobile phone to someone meeting him at the airport about the bomb he was carrying.  well, all calls were being monitored in the u.s. (bush era; i don't know now), so he never got past the airport's door.
