| The answer to most of this is yes. The last par is a NO, doing business in CDO is done without that. During the middle of 2010 i received a lot of unwanted attention from Manila based operatives who found they made a very big mistake and now face charges with the office of the ombudsman. the office of the Mayor and Vice mayor were very supportive as was Herbie at the Goldstar. The type of support missing in other places. The city even has adopted its own by laws that state that CIDG are not allowed to conduct activity in the city unless approved in writing and in cooperation with the City, ie no cowboying. The City poice are not allowed to enter bars unless on official duty ie called in on emergency etc. Only Anti Vice have free passage and are the only individuals allowed to be armed. CDO is for me a good place to do business. I am sure there ae many other business people bars or not who feel the same. Now you know why when walking ino some bars in other places it is well over 100 pesos for the humble SMB!!. You are all paying for the cost of additional expenses!!
