    I live 4 years in Bohol, 3 of them in Panglao. I moved to Dumaguete last year in juli. People are different, thanks god, some like city other countryside. Couple of reasons I move here to Negros. Panglao is a touristplace, now international airport will open december 2017, at least that the plan. Much more tourist on the way, and there already a lot, more and more koreans to, prices goes up, already not a cheap place to live, when you compere to other areas in Philippines. All tourist areas attrac scammers/criminels, its here the money are. I started out living in Tawala, few hundred meters from Alona beach, restaurants, bars and diving shops side by side, nice place for party, thats for sure. After playing tourist 8 months, rent hotel appartment, I moved to north of Panglao, near Mommo beach, more peaceful, and still only 10-15 min on bike to Alona. I need malls like you Billybob, not to hang around, but for shopping, want some imported stuff, cinema, bank, postoffice, maybe hospital, dentist with out travelling far away each time. I had good time in Panglao, but main reason lo leave, I don't want live in really crowed tourist area, With all the negativ sides it brings. Why Negros/Dumaguete ? I visit here many times and find people here more friendly, same say my friens from Bohol who visit here.From Dumaguete, like Tagbilaran, easy to reach other places in Philippines by plane or ferry. Important to me is optiens to do what I like to do, hobbys. I like go around on bike see new places, meet locals, yes you can do that every where, but Negros are new to me and bigger than Bohol, with a big city Bacolod near by. After 1 month in hotel appartment in Dumaguete and nearly 2 months in resort south of Dumaguete, roming around to find permanent place, I feel lucky find appartment in Bacong 20-30 meter from sea, water here is clean.Fishing is one of my hobbys, bought small boat of a member in this site, design for fishing, fishfinder, steeringwheel, 10 hp Kohler engine, really nice playtoy, if any members have same interest, your welcome to contact me and we can go fishing togheter. Already visit Panglao in boat even its only 5 meter/15 feets long, exciting trip.
    Sorry for my lack of english, sure there are some grammer and spelling mistake, Im danish, hope you bear over with me

    Which just shows, its not about saving a child or getting a low life off the street. Its about money. They couldn't care less about the kids. Not really justice or law enforcement, just a joke.

    Cerne and DaveL, I fully understand and agree with the contents of the article refered to. I general I dare say that the so-called civilised world is governed and/or run by a great number of brain-dead morons that can only recognise Dollar or Euro signs. The only credo they (and their sheep-like followers) believe in is money, the more the better and if you have to ruin your planet in the process to obtain your goals for another 10 million, that's irrelevant. Stupidity rules...

    When I was a single man and met my Wife for the first time, she made me about a weeks worth of adobo and pansit. Ate that all through the week and by the end of that week I knew this was my soul mate. I do believe that one way to a mans heart is through his stomach. Been married for 19 years plus. Love her till death do us part.

    Well Jack... I am building a new "Sit Your Bum Down Resto"' on the beach, Km 10.9 in Bacong. Will open in April. 80 seats covered or open air. With the same concept as my pizza place 2 years ago. This time I own the property so I am pulling out all the stops. Stay tuned as I will have a sponsor page soon and all can see pics and updates on construction. Or add me on FB...Gerry duma

    I read his dribble and feel he would not be happy even if he won the powerball loto, got an IRS exempt and woke up each morning with a supermodel.
    Dumaguete can be as good or as bad as you choose to make it, don't let the negativity of 1 stop anyone from visiting the city we call home!!!!
