Wrong. The amount is the same all over the Philippines.</blockquote> I'm not sure about this one. The minimum jeepney fare here in Cebu is P6.00. When I went to Metro Manila last May year and January this year, the minimum fare was P7.50 or P7.00 (I can't remember the exact figure). Taxi fare is less expensive in the recent places I've been to recently - Bacolod, Davao, and Baguio. But I think it's the same here in Cebu (base figure is P30.00 and the meter increases by P2.50.)

Taga asa ka brad sa Mindanao? Yes, all of your infos are indeed true. Well, food is really relatively higher here in Makati compared to my place, Davao City. I mean definitely way different. Posh restaurants here would cost you a minimum of 1k for two persons. While in Davao, a buffet for two will only cost you less than P200 already. Hehehe… Taga asa ka brad sa Mindanao?
