Duterte: Two Samal kidnappers identified, one of them arrested
I saw this on TV last night.
I'm not sure he should have said anything really.

Theres a video circulating showing the kidnap victims in front of an ISIS flag surrounded by armed men,rumour is one of them has been beheaded but thats unverified.
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.
Sounds similar to the AS kidnapping in Honda Bay in Palawan over a decade ago. High end resorts with wealthy individuals being the target again.
The canadian hostage has been murdered.

If you want your dreams to come true ...... first you have to wake up
R.i.p
I too was very much saddened to learn about his murder.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
I still live in the hope the remaining hostages will be released.
Pretty crap result, unfortunately things like this make me wonder about visiting some places in Ph...
Rose constanty thinks I'm going to get kidnapped, and of course I think I'd be a cross between Macgyver and the A team, but in reality it would be a bit .... to put it mildly.
Meanwhile many people are thinking of voting for the same old same old...
Not good R.I.P
My personal experience after 18 months living here in Davao City is that Davao City itself is very safe. I'm easily able and comfortable to move around the city alone day or night without any uncomfortable feelings or issues at all.
If I'm going to be honest, it's a different world beyond the check-points of the city limits.
I have many family members and friends in ComVal and I've enjoyed my many visits to some fantastic places, but even a friend who is a high ranking police officer has advised to stay with family groups and not travel around outside their protection.
Even a solo fishing outing to the beach in the town of my family is not advised.
Sad really. Such restrictions can become a real pain and have developed into one of the reasons we have decided to relocate out of Mindanao.
Make no mistake, there are some places of magnificent beauty in Mindanao but in all honesty the feeling of personal safety outside Davao City limits is always in mind.
I've visited family in Cotabato, Zamboanga and Surigao and whenever we go I can sense their feeling of heightened security.
We will leave our current house on Saturday and have a flight booked to Manila the week after.
I love Davao Life and so much will be missed but I need to experience much more of my new home in the Philippines than is practically possible with a freedom of mind than here in Mindanao
I have been goingnto Davao for around 25 years,lived there for a while,it used to be pretty bad,nowadays it has a safe vibe far greater than manila,odd that abu sayaf came all the way to samal to snatch spme hostages,sad it ended how it did fornthe canuck.

His head was dumped in a carrier bag in jolo,the randsom for him was a totally unrealistic $8,000,000.Best thing to do with these people is to wipe their bloodline off the face of the planet,their mum,their dad,their brothers and sisters,its harsh but on the same level as kidnapping some old guy and hacking into his neck with a blunt machete.

The Canadian getting his head cut off has appeared on Facebook as expected .feckin animals .
Pretty sure it wasn't Abu that got them initially.. Just a Filipino gang that sold them to them.
I agree... If one of mine was topped in that fashion,I would pay BIG money to hunt down the families that raised them and have them all slaughtered.
Karma needs a bit of a push sometimes IMO.
Maybe fred,its a long way from samal to jolo,reminds me of the banged up abroad fictional account and book greg williams made cash from saying he was snatched from cebu harbour and whisked off to sulu by speedboatthe producers should have done a little research before giving him cash for his fairy story.

Without a shadow of a doubt,if a terrorist knows his family line will be null and void once he commits an atrocity he would think once,twice,thrice before shouting allah akhbar and slaughtering an innocent once he realises the same will be happening to his parents once henis identified.

With the way we feel about this Tawi..I`m surprised we have not yet seen this type of retaliation reported..
The first victim was a mining executive....Plenty of cash available to take revenge..Problem is the R.P Government will not agree to such measures.. I say "stuff them"...Go private..
To me it would create a very lucrative industry for the right kind of locals.
Hi Guys, not been on here in a long time. Was truly saddened with the outcome of John Ridsdel and I sincerely hope there is a happier ending for the remaining hostages.
We made a trip down near Kalilangan, in Bukidnon Province (Mindanao) in January for the family fiesta and I have to say, this was the first time I felt nervous about travelling down there. All was fine and relaxed in the end and we had a great time.
It's kind of making me nervous, thinking of the outcome back here in the UK though?
Firstly i could not live in Manila, spent just 2 days there, and couldnt get out quick enough.
Your points about Davao are spot on, as for the rest of Mindanao well up towards the North Eastern side it appears there are NPA up there, i never felt threatened but i know for a fact that my GFs mother was worried for my safety, and an American guy who was on vacation, never drove around without some form of weapon under his drivers seat. So yes it may be a wise decision on your part, but i will be surprised if you stay in Manila, Panglao and Palawan are worth looking at to settle. Good luck Peter.
Hey stranger,long time no see,hows life sim?Hows Mrs Sim settled in?Her aunty still nurse in St Peters toril?

Hi Tawi, we're good thanks Ladybug has settled in well and has made lots of friends, we've finished shelling out money as well, as she has citizenship now. All good! She recently sent a balikbayan box down to Davao, so I expect her Aunty benefitted.How are you? still having your adventures we hope?
Like Fred said, I understood it was a criminal gang who snatched them from Samal and sold them to the Abu Sayaf.
And Terpe, I'm sorry you've had to leave Mindanao, can't have been an easy decision?
Just looked at his house on this link, it's awful I couldn't live in it
Gutted about this
Just been reading of Robert Hall his wife and another mans death and viewed the video on MSN of the demands for money before killing them, makes one feel very bitter towards these killers. RIP to those that died.Gutted about this
Pinay hostage released in Sulu. Great news!
http://www.update.ph/2016/06/abu-say...d-in-sulu/6726
That is very good news, there were reports she had been released about a week ago, but they were unfounded. so this is good. I hope the Norwegian man is released soon? Can't imagine what they've been through?
Norwegian hostage freed.
