    Funeral Mass today at 10:00am at the Catholic Church in Dauin. Cremation to follow (I think in Dumaguete).

    Pros vs cons of the investment visa.

    Pro: you don't have to keep renewing a tourist visa.
    Con: You might get shot tangling with real estate.

    Real estate is one of a very few things which a typical local might own which is worth decent money. Cash poor, property rich. That could put people in desperate situations where they are easy prey seeking money. You then get predatory people in the space who are able to roll over the locals. Take a case to court, run through every trick in the book against a weak defense and win the case.

    Of course a foreigner is going to be an even easier target, right? They may have more money, but they aren't from the Philippines.

    But the foreigner ends up picking up a solid defense. All these tricks aren't so easy to pull off because the foreigner's legal representation picks up on them. Over the course of long and dragged out case, the corrupt local gets stuck in a web of so many lies it's difficult to keep them straight. As the foreigner starts piling up wins in court, then the local resorts to the last trick in the corruption handbook. Foreigner gets shot.

    I don't know if this is what happened in this case, but it has happened to at least a couple of friends here.

    Nice of the police to give out the name of the only potential witness to the murder.

    There is a post on Facebook on the HEADZ UP Negor.
    He was just a young fellow.
    Very sad.

    Those two men seem to be "guns/killers for hire"----it wasn't a random act they did----it was obviously premeditated. The question is, who would have hired them?

    In my experience here most of these cases are especially where a foreigner is involved
