Philippines: Extortion from the hills?:

As a whole the police and army have very little to do with the NPA. The NPA has little to do with expats but they do love to shot and kill the police and army so stay away from those groups. You might get caught in a cross fire.

Philippines: How Long can I stay/Visa Renewal Limit:

To TonyC: Everything you posted is out of date. Please post the correct info.

Sweden: learning Islam and Arabic Language by Skype:

I love God too much to do this...

Philippines: Looking for a nice rural province:

I live in Tagum City just 55 kms northeast of Davao City. Very nice place to live and very safe. The last place I lived in back in the States had only 600 souls in it and I lived 2 miles away. Tagum City has about 240,000 folks. Nice malls. Good farm land just north of here. Cebu is not in Mindanao.

Philippines: Retirement / Immigration to the Philippines:

Sorry but I just now read your message. Just show up and live here on a tourist visa. Try this web site. http://www.liveinthephilppines.com

Philippines: Mindinao:

I live in Tagum City. Great place to live. Matanao is way too small for an expat to live.

Philippines: Cat Food & Supplies:

Good luck on that. Most people just let their cats run wild. Your best bet would be to find a vet. They should have what you need.

Philippines: Need advice on moving to the Phillipines please:

A 45 cal.handgun doesn't care how tall you are. In fact the taller you are the more you will stick out with your white skin. $1,000.00 may be too little for you to live on. In fact you can forget it if you want to live in a big city like Cebu or Manila. Davao City in Mandanao is better than both those cities and much safer. I live in Tagum City just 55 kms northeast of Davao City and find it to be a great place to live and if I need a day in the city then it is only a bus ride away. Internet is fast, very fast so don't let others tell you how slow it is. Cable TV is good and cheap. So how long will this $1,000.00 last? That is your number one question. If it is not forever then you will run into trouble later. Some things are cheaper here in the Philippines but others cost more, much more. What type of lifestyle do you wish to live? At 33 years old the ladies will find you and they are great. Enjoy your life here.

Philippines: marrying a separated filipina:

She is a married woman. You are nuts!

Philippines: Expats Only: Looking for partners:

I really don't believe this. He doesn't need help but does want your money. He will cut and run as soon as he gets your money. What I am saying is this...BEWARE of expats looking for investors. 99.99% it is a scam!
