Asa nindot puy-an sa Mindanao?

davao city is a dangerous place for criminals and big cheaters who victimises poor people. they are not ordinary law offenders. minor law offenders enjoys peace and security like anyone who finds davao city a home. a place with high criminalty rate is more dangerous and unsafe. criminals destroy life and property of innocent victims. they can take away the life of anyone in your family or friends for not giving up mobile phones or school bags

No offense Farirah ha but if Davao is a dangerous place for criminals and big cheaters i guess matatamaan ang Mayor nyan. A lot of humors na kaliwa kaliwa daw babae nya, hehehehe.. I dont know if its true din but walang usok if walang apoy. I know iba yung ibig mong sabihin sa cheater, but if he wanted to be a role model sa lahat he shouldnt be doing that. I know we all have flaws and i am interfering ones privacy tapos OT pa ako, hehehehe.... just my opinion lang po...

PEACE !!!

The tax contribution of Region 10/NorMin cannot be ignored. But it's the same scenario. NorMin generates a lot of income from industries. But NorMin gets little from the Manila Gov't. This has been like this since Phividec started and that was a long time ago.

And the fact is, Hanjin is making Phividec earn more. And if the Rail system goes ahead, then CIC will be earning more. Because Rail system is far more efficient than hundreds of trucks. In effect, keeping the NorMin Highway last longer.

To me, per capita indicator is far more important than how big the region is making. The higher the per capita, the better the living standard of the people. And when the living standard is higher, that would mean equal distribution of wealth and a happier people. No stingy employers who take advantage of cheap labor.

you quoted my last post, and i'm trying to comprehend the relevance of your reply, maybe because i mentioned the 3 billion tax contribution of davao city as an example of how mindanao is affected with the current too "centralized system" of the phil. islands. i guess you'll agree with me if i'll say that mindanao is not getting the just share of the pie with the current government system. and if it hurts northern mindanao not getting its just share, how painful is it for davao city alone (not the davao region) contributing 3 billion annually to the national coffers and being denied of the 3 year IRA it should be getting? that is why mindanao regions should not compete with each other, should stand as one and battle it out with the rest of the country instead.

so how many % of the people of Mindanao can afford to live in Luxury? Is hearing humping like a beaver above you a luxury? Do you put-up or shut-up with that problem?
As I said, builders have "really" good marketing dept. I rather spend my money on a free-standing house than living/investing in a highrise.

debating which is more luxurios, posh condo living or posh village living can be comparable to the question, which is better a mountain resort or a beach resort? depends really on who's interpreting the luxury. negatives and positives can be cancelled out whichever option you choose. condo unit basically is a necessity specially for cities with huge urban core. i live in a village here in davao city (matina), and i travel 12 km from my house to my business in lanang.

SM City ecoland/matina to Damosa Gateway Center/SM City Lanang Business Park


it's like traveling daily from glorietta makati up to trinoma in quezon city. it would be a luxury for me if i can own a condo somewhere in lanang area because owning a standing house inside the urban core is very expensive. new subdivisions here in davao are 15 to 20 kilometers away from any of the urban centers (matina, downtown, bajada, chinatown or lanang). once you are inside the 8 kilometer radius urban core, pahirapan na makakuha ng presentabling house and lot dyan less than 2 million. thus the need for condos IMO.

cheating women? hahaha. if am doing it to consenting beautiful hottie, i probably violated social acceptability but difinitely i am entitled of privacy and personal happiness. as long as i dont harass and violates the rights of my playmate, i wouldnt feel quilty of any laws. so like me the mayor is human. and i didnt know there ever were complaints against him from any of his flings

I know iba yung ibig mong sabihin sa cheater, but if he wanted to be a role model sa lahat he shouldnt be doing that. I know we all have flaws and i am interfering ones privacy tapos OT pa ako, hehehehe.... just my opinion lang po...

PEACE !!!

cheaters i meant big fishes in swindling activities, human trafficking industry, etc

actually, in the US, a married coupled with a family would usually prefer to live in a suburd/subdivision because they can have their own privacy. condos/apartments are most of the time occupied by single working people. when they get married, they would then buy a house and live in a suburb because that is their trend there and a single standing house is more expensive compared to an apartment/condo.

wait, wait. for all we care if a government official is doing monkey business with his/her personal life as long as he performs his duty as an elected official. if we are talking here of moral issues, role modelling is for the priests. but even priests can be shameful we all know that, that brings us back to the word HUMAN. i would gladly choose a drunkard, womanizer ERAP than having a religious, role model ARROYO anytime of the day. of course that's only an opinion from a disappointed arroyo voter, not that i am saying ERAP is the better option hehehe.

there can only be one premier city, because if you will insist, it would defeat the true meaning of the word. it's like saying 3 prime ministers in one country. if the present dictates that davao is the de facto capital of mindanao, let us accept that with open heart because data, statistics, figures, pictures, media, surveys, etc suggest so. and if ever any city will take away that accolade in the future, expect that city to be bigger than davao in terms of economy, urban agglomeration, population, fame, cleanliness, tourist attraction, media mileage and many other aspects one city needs to get the tag "premier" before its name.

the best thing we can do as mindanaoan is present our cities to the world in its present status. there are many good things in cdo, gensan, zamboanga, etc. that we can promote and bank on. i can not understand the essence of saying "try cdo, we will have so many highrises there in the year 2010 or we will be a great city in the next 3 years or so". why not, "come here in cdo because it is a progressive city in its own capacity now and one of the major cities in mindanao." does it need to topple davao by adding values only future can bring just to make a good statement? there's really no need to capitalize too much on the future because every city has its own future. we will never know few weeks from now zamboanga will announce it will build a 25 storey highrise, or HANJIN will move to gensan, or butuan will host a new SM mall, or worst, all project proposals in davao and cdo will be terminated because the investors are all bankrupt due to the oil crisis.

if davao will become stagnant, it will be a bad sign. just like if cebu will slow down and overtaken by iloilo or bacolod. let us be proud of these cities (davao and cebu) instead of trying to beat the hell out of them (i'm addressing to the midsize cities). afterall, they are not "imperial cities". would you believe up to now, the IRA or internal revenue allotment of davao for 3 years is not yet released by the national government? davao city's tax contribution to the national government is a whooping 3 billion annually. but look at what it is getting in return. yet it thrives locally alongside with other major cities here in mindanao in showcasing the might of the island amidst imperialism and commandered atrocities.

if only mindanao will support davao instead of trying to dismantle her. afterall, there can only be one premier city in this island. if CDO, zamboanga or gensan will be 3x greater in 2010, will it come into our mind that davao, looking at the current economy boom it is enjoying now, will also be 3x greater then? lastly, why wait for years to come when we can eat the fruits of our labor now?

you want to know what i think? i think youre so selfish that you only care about davao and not thinking of other cities to prosper. cdeo is the most strategic town in the island. yes, davao is huge but cdeo is catching up.

regarding your so called condos, theyre only mid rises. davao has a hard time going beyond 20 storeys because of one thing. i wont tell you that because if i do, i know youll only argue with me untill dawn.

that explains why most condo owners also own a house somewhere in a posh village. kris aquino lives in a condo, but of course she owns a nice house somewhere in the metro, not to mention the haciendas and all that. ask a condo owner, chances are, he/she also owns a standing house somewhere.

oh my oh my...

i don't know if this is just a case of reading comprehension or what. can you highlight any sentence from my post above (i included it for other readers to comprehend) that would support your accusation that i am selfish and only cared about davao? did is say something like, CDO is not progressing or catching up as you coined it? or are you suggesting that only CDO is growing and davao should not?. sheesh.

and the condos, did i ever boast of the condominiums in davao city that made your nose bleed, enough for you to mock it as mid-rises only, as if highrises are a sign of might. i only posted those pictures because somebody queried for it and pictures are better proof than BLAH BLAHS. my goodness, even paris with scarce highrises can make singapore bow down anytime of the day. you know what? regionalistic attitude is only a virtue if it would not get inside your logical thinking.
