I am getting ready to travel to Ozamiz in March, I may stay for some time or may come to Davao afterwards. I have heard that area has some activity of extremist and I am a little bit concerned for my safety for there if I stay for a while. I am ex-military and I know that of course being stupid is not a good idea when visiting overseas (as well as any where). I will be careful as much as possible, but the activity of extremist worries me a little. I know foreigners visit the area for short periods of time and they seem very happy to have made the trip, but if I stay there for any lengthy amount of time then do I need to be more concerned?
