Fun, fun, if it isn't fun, forget it. For me, Phils has been fun (ST, no residency).

Everyone is organised into some gangster run collective. The street vendors, beggar kids, stall holders. I'm sure the stall holders need to pay extortion money each month to the local mafia don. No different to any other developing country.
A 1 week monger in AC is unlikely to get into trouble if he keeps a low profile, doesn’t get into arguments at bars or with girls and leaves his valuables in the hotel safe. At night, best not to walk along the perimeter road. Take a trike.

Posts: 16046Since we are on the subject. I was sitting around the other day talking to some buddies in Thailand. They live part time in AC and part time in Pattaya. One said that he was doing some kind of job in Kokomos. He got tired of the vendors harassing people in front so he ran them off. He is a big enough guy. He said they did not come around for a couple of days.
Then some guy showed up needing to see him. The lady would not tell him who it was. She just kept saying you need to come now. He went out and it was a Muslim guy. He only said a few words, "Don't fuck with my vendors. " My buddy said this guy is some well known killer. He told the guy yes sir and never saw him again. Evidently all of that stuff that the vendors sell comes from China through the port in Mindanao. And they don't work for themselves as I always thought. They sell that shit for some type of Muslim cartel. All I know is one thing. You won't catch me fucking with those vendors!

Foreigners who live in small in communities IMHO stand out like a sore thumb and if they then start to get 'involved' with local families or clans then the situation can't be good for the person.
As a few posters have said here before you keep your head down and out of politics. One foreigner who had a business in Visayas asked some questions at a meeting about the council's use of the budget funds etc (IE where was it going hence pointing to corruption) and suddenly he was charged with [CodeWord123]. Took him 11 months to get of jail when police 'finally realised' she was still a virgin and he had been set up. Luckily he is still alive.

Regarding the New Zealander killed, reading in a little further suggests that foreigners are well-advised not to settle on Biliran. Didn't AV report buying an outrigger banca and fishing nets on Biliran a couple years ago? Anybody heard from him recently?

While not AC this is another and no one really charged. IE the person who paid the gunmen (who were arrested fairly quickly) never been found. Too many get away with murder literally.

Posts: 451Not that it really matters, but I agree with you as opposed the wolf criers. There was probably some history there and probably a previous altercation of sorts.

These kind of hits happen to people living in Philippines. Not casual tourists unless they are at the wrong place at the wrong time. Even then murders are rare. Most likely getting beat up. One time a moto guy in AC told me he can take me to a casa to find real pretty girls. I told him to bring to my hotel. Even in ermita I went to a casa couple of times picked a girl and took her to my hotel. Still looking back it was a risky thing to do.
