Come to Philippines Before World War 3

WWIII appears to be fast approaching.

Filipinos will fight for Freedom!

Does it look like World War III is coming?

As an American expat and a permanent resident of the Philippines, I am beginning to get an uneasy feeling. I met my Filipina wife in 2007. We now have a home in an upscale American style subdivision, about two hours' drive from Manila, where we live with our three children and one of my wife's cousins who is our live-in housekeeper. We have armed guards at our entrance gates and roaming guards throughout the neighborhood.

Should we stay or should we fly back to the USA? We all have US citizenship. Our children are all Phil Am kids. They and my wife have dual citizenship.

If you are thinking about coming to meet a Filipino now is a perfect time to do it. It can take a while to file the paperwork to apply for your future spouse's travel to your country. We thought about hiring an attorney to help us through the process but finally did it ourselves and saved a lot of money.

Recently it was announced that citizens may now apply to get semi-automatic weapons. Until now gun ownership has been restricted. See my article about self-defense in the Philippines.

See my articles about Philippine military and conflicts in the Philippines.

As a Vietnam vet I am somewhat knowledgeable about living in war zones. There are always safe places to be in a country even while conflict is raging. When I met my wife, she agreed to travel with me to the island of Mindanao. Her friends and relatives advised her not to go there. The US State department advised not to go or if one must go to use "extreme caution" and "do not stay in one place for too long." Well, we flew there and had a good time for almost a month before flying back to Manila.

Ladies of the Philippines.
You may not marry one if you have not met her,
in person, in the Philippines!

How long have you been communicating with a Filipina? Do you really want to meet her in person, take her out to dinner, get to know her better? Have the two of you talked about marriage? Are you going to wait until war breaks out? 

Come to the Philippines while it is still peaceful.

Update March 23, 2024: China boat attacks again.
