On The Flipside Of Davao City

For over twenty-something years of existence, I barely see myself living in another place except Davao. It seems that the city has got it all covered for me: Beautiful beaches, mouthwatering cuisines, sophisticated musical bars, eye-gawking sights, etc. This is not to mention the hospitable Davaoeños who’ll embrace you with smiles and loveliness. Indeed, Davao city is an exceptional one–there’s no doubt about it. However, I can’t help, but notice some disturbing truths within the city–something that I became aware of since the past few years.  I guess these are just inconvenient realities we need to chance upon.
