Dear jobelle,
The nerve to tell me not to visit iloilo. Who are you? The mayor? Girl of informal settler mentality.
My suggestions are not idiotic, in fact some of them are being considered. I am wishing iloilo to become progressive and economically stable so that people like us need not go placesto look for work and instead go back to iloilo and get the same opportunity in the place we were born, raised and got our education. Learn to respect the comments of others that were posted in positive ways. You remind me of my days in iloilo that their are people of mentality.. The nerve of you!
this is one of the best website i’ve seen so far. so much details on iloilo tourism. Is it possible to share your website and its contents to my facebook group named Hiligaynon. Thanks.
truly, iloilo is on its way of becoming a premiere city…however, we should not content ourselves in bringing out the best for iloilo. its always a partnership between the government and the people…if we want to make our city the best that we could ever have, then, we have to take good care of what the government have started already. this is our city…and its our responsibility!
ay…kanami lng sang view sans bucari leon ah…ay sobra ka ramig gid yah…kung mapuli ko sa amon ga kodog ko ka ramig mum…mayad lang kng summer medyo ramig lang pay kung tag ulan gni ay abaw ramig gid…daw sa baguio lng bala,,..
@Jobelle , I get your point about preservation of Iloilo Cultural heritage and its ethnic identity that which gives Iloilo Tourist Place its substance . We should not be docile from the dictates of other people especially not coming from Iloilo , we are better left without those Shangrila , Piers , Mansions , Giant Statue of Aquino and then worship those places … thanks jobelle

Dear Jo,
Your detailed plan sucks, history speaks itself (Iloilo has its own identity)– why will they transform the simple way of living here according to your crab mentality and idiot idea? Don’t visit to Iloilo instead, stay in Metro Manila! You want Shangri-la and Megaworld right?
Dear jobelle,
W
Hahahahahahaha a year ago i posted those wish list. A year after, most of my wish list are being considered. Who is more idiotic or of crab mentality, mine or yours? Dont stay on that mind, youll end up somewhere depressing. Look who’s talking? Hahahahaha
By the way, who that hell are you to tell me, not to visit iloilo, are you the mayor? Pakita ka sa akon pag nagpauli ko da sa april, kay basi masermonan ta ka
