Cebu City - A Must-Visit Place in the Philippines Known as the “Queen City of the South”

Filipinos are among of the bravest races in the world and the proof to that is the fact that Philippines was once ruled by mighty and intelligent Datu, Rajah, Lakan, and Sultan – brave warriors of our times. During the 16th century, a warrior named Lapu-Lapu defended his town Mactan against the colonizers Spaniards. It was the “Battle of Mactan” that made Cebu famous up to these days.

What About That Culture of Corruption in the Philippines?

Corruption! Yes. What about this terrifying culture of the Filipinos? In 2013, I wrote this post “ Corruption Kills Filipino People - Let's End Corruption in the Beautiful Country Philippines ”. I think it is a good time to remind people about it once again. If you’re one of the millions of Filipinos who wants good changes for the Philippines, our beloved country, then this post is for you.

Traveling to the Philippines is a One of a Kind Life Experience
