I hope my merchant doesn't see this topic. I can guess his response, "It looks to difficult and risky, I'll stick with cash only".

I have a meeting with his later next week.

Philippines is not ready for Bitcoin transaction, the Philippine Government should work on the very slow internet service first before Philippine merchants can start using them. I know there are a few merchats out there who accepts bitcoin but still internet will play a big role in accepting this service.

Fast internet isn't required to accept Bitcoin at all. A slowish internet is fine for using POS systems like Bitpay with minimal delay. Transaction wise, it takes less than 3kb on average to send a transaction, no need for fast internet at all.
