Help buying SN in the philippines

[princexhhn]

um I just need help, I don't think my country has regulations for buying SN but is there anything I should do so it's not suspicious?? It was surprisingly not even hard to find a source here but I don't know how to go about it… I'm terrified of anything going wrong. It will be harder for me to get SN again if I fail to get it the first time I think, because either authorities can be suspicious of me or my family/friends will know which means I can't move under their radar anymore. I really don't know, I've just never done this before and I'm scared of messing up. I'm really paranoid that I end up doing something that will make things worse… I just need this to go smoothly without alerting anyone or any authorities

Fellow Filipino here.

I have possession of SN right now, purchased it last year from a local source as well, and so far, I wasn't informed of a shipping restriction. I don't think our government right now have strict regulations since they don't even focus on preventing CTB rates that much, unlike UK and other countries. You don't even have to explain why you're buying it.

If you have to explain it in your household, you can just say it's a preservative or a curing salt (because it literally is one). I didn't have to explain it since I'm very distant from my parents and never once I touched the packaging of SN until now (it's still in the full black plastic). Had it stored in my cabinet as a storage protocol.

Thank you T-T they wouldn't be suspicious if I only bought SN and nothing else? I saw a different filipino here yesterday that said the delivery became suspicious of them, but didn't elaborate further than that. I asked but they haven't answered. I can maybe get away with it in my house if I buy something the same size outside and say it's that… I'll figure that part out. I just wanted to be sure I could fly under the authorities' radar, thank you again :)

I think suspicion arises if you got a history of an attempt and have logs on a clinical institution, or if you're a repeat buyer with no background related to a scientific field (a matter of luck if the supplier unfortunately notices you). If you have to explain to the seller, you can pull up the reason of preservative, but the lack of regulation or public attention of SN makes them not care on where would you use it. Hoping this goes under the radar of GMA or other local broadcasting agencies lol.

I sent a private convo btw since I'm looking for other Filipinos here as well, we could chat in there if you want : )

제 생각에는 과거 투약 시도 이력이 있거나 임상 기관에 기록이 있는 경우, 또는 과학 분야와 관련 없는 배경 지식이 있는 반복 구매자인 경우 의심을 살 것 같습니다 (공급업체가 불행하게도 당신을 알아차리는 건 순전히 운일 뿐이죠). 판매자에게 설명해야 한다면 방부제 사용 이유를 제시할 수 있겠지만, SN(천연 의약품)은 규제가 미비하고 대중의 관심이 적어서 어디에 사용하는지는 신경 쓰지 않는 것 같습니다. 이 일이 GMA나 다른 지역 방송사들의 눈에 띄지 않기를 바랍니다.

참고로, 저도 여기 계신 다른 필리핀 분들을 찾고 있어서 개인 메시지를 보냈어요. 원하시면 거기서 대화해요 :)
