Also I found out, that it is not a good idea to mention, that Marcos also did some bad things back in the day. They are getting pissed.
I got it from this thread. And I asked people what they thought about the matter.I don't know where you're getting this thing regarding Marcos.
"I see the bloodied body of Archimedes Trajano—the 22 year old Mapua student who had the temerity to ask Imee Marcos in an open forum “Must the Kabataang Barangay (National Youth Council) be headed by the president’s daughter?” And this so angered the plastic-surgeried one that Archimedes Trajano was picked up right there and then by Imee’s bodyguards and tortured and killed."
why would the people kick out the best president the Philippines ever had?
just remember the foreign debt of the Philippines before Marcos was $1 billion , when he got kicked out during People Power it was $28 billion

Ilocos is Marcos territory. He's considered almost a god there. If your relatives are from there, that might be the reason why they act the way they do.
I just know, that if you mention any of those things, you will be shit on, and people will shake their heads.
lol true, but I have history and facts behind me, they just have rose tinted glasses
Hey guys, the iOS game I worked on has soft-launched in the Philippines. I would appreciate it if any of you could download it (it's FREE) and let me know if there are any major technical issues.
App Store link
If you're not into free-to-play games, don't feel obligated to play through it. This is mostly a sanity check to see if people can actually run the game. We're a small studio based in Canada so we don't have many resources to check this kind of thing. Thanks!
Some of these posts make me a bit on edge letting my son visit the Phillipines.
Can you tell why? People here are talking about the past. The current state of the country with regards to tourism is still good (despite the bullet scam incidents months ago).
Nothing really to worry about, The Philippines like most countries has good parts and bad parts and as long as your son is aware of his surroundings and belongings he will be fine.
This might be worth a read but also read the comments as well. Also check on your own governments travel advice page because depending on where in the Philippines he is going SOME travel insurers will not pay out if something happens in an area your government has advised to avoid so double check with the insurance as well.

mfw Xian (the one-time EVO champ, not the ABS-CBN celebrity) will be attending casuals tomorrow night after the SFV event
Nothing to worry about as long as he's alert and with family) Just the usual reminder not to pay for tours to random people because they might scam him. I once encountered a foreigner near my university who asked me where the bus station was since the guy who he paid for a tour told him that they'll be meeting at a bus station near my uni. There's no bus station near my uni. So yeah... asking for directions is okay, people are friendly here but if your son wants a tour, he might as well go for the expensive travel agencies.

I think these articles are becoming popular now because of 1) a presidential candidate (Duterte) is known to have an iron fist and actually has a high chance of winning and 2) son of Marcos is running to be VP and also has a high chance of winning since people think that his father was the best president the Philippines ever had.
Hello mga Pinoys and Pinays. Kamusta?
Question, Bioman o Maskman?
Okay lang, pagod lang at gusto nang matulog.
Wondering if any of you can recommend me any recent underground filipino bands.
Been on a binge lately ever since I went back to the Philippines in January and ever since I've been craving for new things Filipino especially music.

ew no that's not true) but don't try the burgers in Jollibee, they're not good lol. Try Jolly Hotdog, spaghetti, peach mango pie, and chicken joy. Those 4 are my favorites and I can vouch for their deliciousness hahaha
You have to try the Champ. So good. Also try the Burger Steak Supreme.

Halo Halo is the best!The halo halo looks kind of interesting.
That came from his wife. Still a terrible commentActually, I changed my mind about Mar Roxas lol. I remembered recently that he was the one who said that if Japan can handle natural disasters, then let all the natural disasters go to them instead of the Philippines which is a pretty nasty thing to say. Good thing the relations between Philippines and Japan are good.
Hey I am having fun with your app.
However there seems to be a gamebreaking bug in the game.
During my first game, I reached up to level 7 but monsters started to not appear. So there is no way to make money or progress. This happened after getting the detective to work (the Moscow thing) - it was delayed until I was level 6 or so.
So I tried numerous times to restart the game, uninstalled multiple times and even deleted it on iPhone's game center. Keeps going back to the save file of my game center (level 7) until I stopped syncing the game to game center.
However it happened again. I am level 2 when the detective thing occurred and again, hiatus on monsters. The screen is totally empty of any monsters/guests.
