Id stay out of the philipinnes my brother at the time was Recon, he was there not too long ago, tons of terrorist camps. He brought me back a sword from one of the guys they dispersed of... He said the locals were great people and the marines built them a school before they left
Sure Phils has bad sections...just like any country does. The terrorists are in the mountainous sections of the southern most island of Mindanao. I was FAR from there...I was up north on the same island of Manila. Many Americans & Europeans retired there and been living there for decades. Keep in mind theres 7,000 islands there. I didn't just go there on a whim...been researching Phils for the past year...I know where NOT to go there.![]()
