⌛ Crime and Dumaguete

There are persistant rumors that Antulang Resort is financed with drug money.

Riding a pedicab to see friends in Alegria (sp) over on southwestern Cebu Island after getting off the bus from Santander area and seeing a rather nice beachhouse with a high wall around it, I asked my fellow passenger who owned that nice place..

He made a motion towards his nose-something I didn't understand, then said, "Drug dealers".

Neighbors from my old subdivision in Candau-ay complain of more break ins.

In fact one guy was chased down, shot off his scooter, and then executed in front of El Pueblo subd when we lived in the area.

Like I said, the drug problem is real, and worse, there's only a few cities on all of Negros that an addict looking to fund his habit would go to.

Addicts know no fear.

 

Crime in Dgte pops up in the online Sun Star Times now & then. One I remember is that a girl walking out of OK Pension had her laptop computer snatched from her by thieves on a scooter who zoomed by and yanked it from her.

Also the foreigner who was robbed immediately after withdrawing P100,000 from the bank near Quezon Park.

Keep an eye on what's going on around you while you're in town..

 

Yes, it is true, I have also this information and when you visit the place it does not change that view.

 

It seems like everyone knows about this place but the famous Dumaguete vigilantes...Or could it be that they only have enough balls to go after small time dealers

 

The big time dealers might be paying the authorities off... Or the maybe the big time dealers took advantage of the vigilante craze and decided to eradicate the competition

Last time I was at Antulang was way back in 2001 or so..

 

Interesting observation....That could likely be the case between the authorities and the big dealers. However, it wouldn't suprise me if the so called "vigilantes" are on their payroll as well.

 

It is no news that the big criminals are pretty safe, they have power in society. Anyway, better stay away at night from those spots, wrong time/wrong place easyly can occur.
Dumaguete is very safe, but the places which are considered safe are mostly the most risky, as for example late at night around Why Not. You fish where the fish can be found easy right? And often easy to catch as many are drunk.
No fear needed, but use general precautions.

 

I heard of this Antulang 'lee' connections with drugs thingy in early 90's.If the rumours spread to this day,there must be some something in it ... it's impossible to grip a smoke by hand.

 

Drug dealers in dumaguete

Boy Li is a big time drug dealer in Dumaguete. Everybody knows that but the authorities have no balls to arrest this mother_f$%32!

Another big suspect is Herminio Teves. Both these personalities I heard get protection from a retired military general named Montano of Amlan.

 

Isn't Miniong Teves in politics? or was? So anyway the shabu is still strong in Duma then? That's a shame because a man-made drug like that will turn people into dried-out losers who don't deserve a place in our city.
