Phillipines?

Assalaamu alaykum

I'm looking for a holiday destination and was thinking phillipines? Can anyone tell me a it about the following places?

No, no and no.

Remember that the Philippines is not like Malaysia dear Khaled, it is not designed for Muslims.

If you want to see nice places where you won't be surrounded by alcohol, transsexuals, bars and crime in the Philippines you have to head down to the Muslim areas that are near Malaysia. Most of them will be hard to get to as there is not a large tourist industry set up, so unless you know people there it would be difficult to access. One place that has a small Muslim population and is clean and respectable is Puerto Princesa in Palawan. It is one of the nicest places you will ever see, and quiet too.

Why u don't try a diff city like we are khaled, we are going to sabah Inshaallah.

I'm also looking at going on a holiday during the mid-semester break. At the moment Malaysia is at the top of the list as I've never been there and I've read some good feedback from the people that have gone.

I'd recommend Sabah too - when we go insha'Allah next time that's where I want to try. Already been Langkawi, penang and KL. i'd still go KL for shopping but for outside i'd try sabah next time
