    Some neighborhood friends advise me that these are fishing boats, repairing their nets while waiting out the unsettled weather.

    shutup about this "confession" comment. As a foreinger you can own assets such as houses/condos/etc.. you need a wife to own land but most of the beach/seafront property is owned by the govt anyways so yes you would need a lease but if you do it properly and have it properly surveyed by the city hall geo-engineer and mapped out on paper/with sqM and a topical diagram map filed with the city hall with a tax ID and lot number, paying taxes for that lot number/area on file at the city hall, And declare a value if the city decides to procede with a eminant domain filing they can and will take it from you but they will pay you for the declared value from the city assesor mapped out by the surveyor. And yes you are right you need to be with a filipina wife for all that to take place as a foreigner cant own land/property.. hope that answers your questions. Now on a more serious note that kinda pissed me off what is this comment about " a confession" ? talk nice plz or dont talk at all. just helping out fellow members with experience that ive had to deal with..it was a headache and yes a lot of hoops to jump through and work around im not saying its easy, but anyways have a good night

    ha this post kind of makes me laugh.. no offensive to birdwatch or anyone. But, ive owned beachfront property for years with none of the above mentioned safeguards in place, and I have never had a problem. Its about how you react.. stern and straight but no rudeness..they will get the hint. i dont want to go into too much detail here but you should be getting my point..

    I dont know if it is pissing someone (foreigners?) off but the green slime growing on that beach says there is a lot of e-coli in the water.. someone is pissing (among other things) somewhere for sure.. check up that stream if you want to know who, where and what..

    Oh dear, this looks like it's shaping up to be a "handbags at 5 paces" sort of a deal.
    If you want to know more about Foreshore here is the following link: - http://pdf.usaid.gov/pdf_docs/PNADB807.pdf
    Unusually, (for the government) it's actually quite interesting.
    Another link which is also quite good for Foreshore lease application is here: - Foreshore Lease And Application - Philippines | (Wish I'd seen this when I applied for my first lease, long ago).
