it seems that the killings in Davao City are now transferred to other areas in Mindanao. it seems nobody knows what these killings are all about but actually all know what is happenning. people tried to be blinded because as much as possible tried to live a peaceful life. everything just continued, until when? nobody knows..nobody cares. Davao
City has the 911 but see how rampant the killings in that area? what the use of these vehicles then when you can't traced these killers? notice that nobody makes a move checking 2 wheeled motorcyles w/ no plate number, wherein the residents know that these vehicles are used for the killings. want to check out, where can we find these vehicles? take a look at police stations...
