Always good to read of a happy conclusion:xxgrinning--00xx3:Southern Pinas seems to be almost overtaking Colombia in the Kidnap stakes,I was down in Zambo a few weeks ago having been invited to a MRDP meeting for sulu&Jolo mayors and the movers and shakers of the area,got a few open invites to visit and had I the time then maybe I would have taken them up on the offer,the area itself is incredible,superb unspoilt beaches,fantastic Robinson Crusoe islands,but is topping up the perma-tan worth starring in my own online video dressed guantanamo style in a rather fetching orange jumpsuit:Help1: :Erm:as some friendly masked guys behind me recite passages from the Koran?Methinks not,ugly as my head is I have grown quite attached to it over the years:xxgrinning--00xx3:I personally knew a guy who was kidnapped in S.E.Asia,for him there wasnt a happy conclusion,I was also in Kashmir shortly after Keith Mangan and Paul Wells were taken by a faction,I guess personal safety cant be taken too lightly,look at the pic,private Bodyguards in Sulu,theres a reason they were packing so much hardware :ARsurrender:
