You've raised an interesting topic - one that has no doubt been discussed here before about leaving this country in search of simple happiness...
Is it possible to live in the Phils and find that?
Excuse my ignorance I mean no harm by that but I'm already wondering what I'll do when I hit retirement and by then all my pension will go on gas and ellecie forget food!
Gated community always get me interested!!
But that's the real point isn't it - community nowadays virtual communities like this one on here are about as close as we get to that sort of thing now..

Great idea
Being a builder......You will need a modernized out rigger to be used as a ferry to bring all the building products and food supplies over to our island.....Our ferry could be used on snorkeling and dive adventures......As so it woud be great for our fishing trips.....
Just a thought

I must admit that I raised this initially as a reaction to the thread but the more I think about it the more it could actually work with the right planning and committed participants.

Wow
25,000,000!
If it was big enough I'd imagine a small boutique hotel -15/20 rooms type luxury hotel!
That way there's a constant income as well, or run a B&B
That's certainly food for thought...

It seems that we will need to find another paradise. The owners of the nearby Dos Palmas resort island have apparently bought Starfish Island (pending the final payments). They are the Lim family and are related to Mayor Lim of Manila and one of Puerto Princesa`s most influential families. Actually they are a nice bunch, their kids come down to the local sailing club (ex pats watering hole) for lessons and the old man used to enjoy playing dominioes with my dad !!!!. HEY HO need to find another island.

Ah well, nice to know that the wealthy aren't missing out.

indeed Graham, the saying the that rich get richer and the poor get poorer is perfect for the Phils. In Mr Lims (the Puerto one) he is very philanthropic, supports many good causes on Palawan and if you saw him he looks like the caretaker or the driver not the boss. Down to earth guy who enjoys making turned wood products in his workshop at his hacienda. I think the family hide him away on Palawan LOL cos he is bit of a hippy hehehehehe complete with Pony tail

it is and I will follow the various property sites in the Phils I know to see if another opportunity presents itself. It stands to reason that if have one pool , one tennis court, one well, one generator/ one solar array etc between 10 homes it will be cheaper, one set of architects, builders, materials, planning/rating bribes to pay (lol). Now getting 10 couples to get on ...ther is another challenge. any UN negotiators in the forum hehehehehe
