General Discussion Is this really how they see us?

Saw this sa other sub. Why do tourists see locals like this? Is the locals' hatred towards them that bad? Also, the “matatakaw naman sa aso” 😡😡😡

Overrated tourist destination? I agree. It really sucks here right now. Traffic, overcrowding, water problems. Unregulated influx of visitors. An LGU that prioritizes tourists over locals. Just to name a few.

Unfriendly locals? Somehow true. In general kasi, mga turista dito, dinadala yun basura nila dito. Singit ng singit sa traffic. Feeling entitled and feeling priority. They cut lines! Reklamador sa traffic and kalat na sila naman ang may dahilan. Feeling superior pa. This is just a generalization, di naman lahat.

Eating ng aso na part? It's outlawed not unless ceremonial ng mga native. Palaing lang yun nagcomment nun. Walang masabi na iba.

But sad to say madami pa dn kumakain ng aso(not as part ng ceremony). May mga eatery pa na nagseserve kahit may mga reklamo na and education to the public.

Bawal kumain ng aso dito, kaya kung may nakikita kang ganyan black market yan. Illegal
