Australia issues travel alert against Philippines due to security concerns

[freelancermaria]

The government of Australia has issued a warning for its citizens planning to travel to the Philippines. They advise travelers to be very cautious due to risks associated with violent crime and potential terrorist activities. The warning states that such attacks could happen anywhere in the country, including in hotels, public transport, airports, and places of worship. In addition, travelers are strongly discouraged from visiting western and central Mindanao, as well as parts of the Sulu Sea, Sulu Archipelago, and Zamboanga Peninsula, due to a heightened risk of kidnapping and terrorism in those areas.

They advise travelers to be very cautious due to risks associated with violent crime and potential terrorist activities. I hope people heed to this

I have not heard about this kind of news. There is no chaos in my place and I haven't read about such kind of crimes. In case, those crimes exist, blame it on Marcos. Our country was peaceful when it was led by President Duterte. Our country is now under fire.

@Starmix if your constant location is very safe, then you are lucky. Why do you think it's cause of the president though?
