After just three months, I returned to Palawan Philippines with the aim of exploring a potential business opportunity. Balabac, nestled in southern Palawan, has recently garnered significant attention from tourists, earning the moniker "the Maldives of the Philippines." However, its rapid rise in popularity has posed challenges, with Balabac struggling to keep up with the demands of tourism. Accommodations often run scarce, and tour boats for island-hopping adventures are in high demand.
Following my recent trip to Palawan, a friend proposed that we investigate Balabac as a potential venture in the tourism sector. Thus begins the first chapter of this journey. Join me as I reconnect with familiar faces from my initial visit to the Philippines, sample delectable street food at the Baywalk night market, and ultimately embark on my first impressions of Balabac.

I'm a little protective about the southern part of Palawan, because I'm from that part. I don't want it to be tourist crazy place... Palawan we call it "The Last Frontier!"

When opportunity knocks in go for it. We know that require lots of time, planning,and feasible studies before jumping into a business ventures. My own opinion Barabac has a great potentials for businesses. It looks like in need of improvements to cater the tourism’s demand. Good luck on your venture. Definitely I’ll visit Barabac when I visit my home province/Leyte.

I think he's trying to show you the egg embryo when he's put it in under the lightbulb. I think you got a 14 days old below of Balut that's why the embryo is not really visible. The size of the embryo will vary depending on days old they cooked the Balut Most balut vendor mark the eggs with the days old. 16-18 days old have more visible duck embryo. While 15 days and below still has medium to small or tiny pinch of embryo, Those with 18 days old, you can see the duck embryo, its head, eyes, beak, sometimes tiny feathers developed.

Other Western vloggers would have maliciously filmed that evacuation center and embarked on a fallacious white-savior show... In the '70s and early '80s, Palawan was rarely visited, known as an unspoiled jungle with primitive tribes and as a leper's colony, with only the then newly built Amanpulo available for the super-rich. Time quickly changes. Balabac, the last undeveloped area, is now being prepared for a major build-up by major corporate hotels with a planned airport unless the Ch-Ph war ignites. You are lucky to experience its still virginal state.
