Why are Rentals so expensive in Manila?

If you are a foreigner, almost always dual pricing in a developing country. Developed Asian countries like ROK and Singapore don't do that, but they are expensive as hell.

Yet Manila compared to HCM or vientiane or Bangkok is overpriced. Probably due to lack of good transportation infrastructure. If that's what the market will bear.
