I thought TARA started filming mid may, about the same time TAR13 finished filming :duno: Am I confused?

Peach: I stand corrected(and have done that to the original version of my post). I had this in my head wrong, but the timeline is quite clear on which month it started.
Thank you for getting it right.

Puddin says: For sure Mrs Shrek! they are the Mactors, Geoff Rodriguez and Tisha Silang.
Yes, there is no doubt that the lady in the picture is Tisha Silang and the man is her boyfriend, Geoff. This is confirmed by some people who know the models.
Great find Mrs. Shrek.
So, after Hong Kong, they went to Cochin, India via Singapore.
apskip:
The prior post states that ARA3 teams go from HongKong to Cochin India via Singapore. There are more direct ways of getting to Cochin(now known as Kochi after the non-British naming convention was restored in India). Those include HKG BLR and BLR COK connecting in Bangalore and HKG BOM and BOM COK connecting in Mumbai. However, in spite of being a longer route the shorter layover makes this connection through Singapore the preferred one:
SQ863 HKG SIN 1330 1710 connecting with SQ5368 2020 2210
That would have given Allan Wu less than 3 hours in Singapore airport with his family.

Here is some more info:
Camp John Hay (CJH) is Baguio's most popular destination. A beautiful resort in the mountains it features a golf course, hotels, shopping & a convention center, among other attractions.
This former rest and recreation facility of the U.S. Armed Forces is older than the city itself. For almost the whole of the 20th century it is what made Baguio City in the Philippines "Little America."
In 1903 Camp John Hay was designed as the rest & recreational facility for the US Military and Department of Defense in the Far East.
The facility, which was named after U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt's Secretary of State, was used by the Japanese as a concentration camp for American and British soldiers during WWII. It was also used as their military head-quarters when General Yama****a moved up north from Manila towards the end of the Japanese Occupation of the Philippines.
This 690-hectare property was finally turned over to the Philippines 1991 upon the expiration of the R.P.-U.S. Bases Agreement. From 1991 to 1997 Filipinos ran the former U.S. Air Force recreational facility for the first time as a resort, operating all the popular and familiar spots as close to the originals as possible: 19th Tee, Halfway House, Mile-Hi, Lone Star, Main Club.
Since 1997 it has been in the hands of a private developer on a long term lease. It boasts of private vacation houses, hotels and lodging facilities, including the most popular Baguio hotel, Camp John Hay Manor, a shopping center called Mile-Hi Center with numerous restaurants and stores, and a newly-built convention center. Jack Niclaus redesigned what is literally the coolest golf course in the Philippines into a competition golf course that continues to host the annual Fil-Am Golf Tournament.
The Philippine government has retained a portion of the property and maintains the Historical Core featuring a museum at the Commander's Cottage, Bell Ampitheater, a Butterfly Sanctuary. And the Asian Institute of Management (AIM) runs Igorot Lodge.
Recreational activities include an EcoTrail, Picnic Grounds, Mini Golf, Pony Rentals, Paintball & Wall Climbing.
