    **Latest update: Summary – on 9 May 2017, the US Embassy in Manila advised its citizens it had received “credible information that terrorist groups may be planning to conduct kidnapping operations targeting foreign nationals in the areas of Palawan Province, Philippines, to include Puerto Princesa City, and the areas surrounding Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park”; you should carefully consider travel plans, and exercise heightened vigilance in these areas**
    Let's be careful out there G & G's

    Those guys are not exceptionally bright they might not even be exceptionally average.
    Recently the NPA have become more active. I was told there usual funding (aka keep quite and don't make waves allowance) which came from politicians has been cut off.
    Maybe these folks just need money or in the worst case a job.
