I copy/paste onto spreadsheet it shows Phillipines is 20 out of 35 countries compared and the average price is 18.86 usc per kw
so Phillipines price is below average.
My comparison with my daughter cost of electricity in Aust bears this out, she pays average $200AU per month, we here pay average
$100Au per month average, same size household

I will go to CDO in October. I would like to know if you know a budget inn for me. I wil go to Camiguin for a few days of vacation. I hope you can help me. Thanks

i know one within the city. I thing its victory inn something i forgot the exact name of the place. But its at the back of Malberry suites. Near Limketkai Mall

Hi Heinrich:

I saw your post here although I realize it was some time ago so I don't know if you're in a position to comment
on CDO now.  I'm considering moving there and would be looking for a basic studio apt (with cooking facilities).  Or a small one bedroom would do.

I work online so I'd be looking for the availability of a decent internet connection too.

Can you give me any ideas on the approximate price range of something like that?

Also, everybody seems to like like the place but doesn't CDO get some bad storms sometimes?

Thanks much,
Art Williams
