Hey, off topic but are you based in Manilla? I'm headed there soon, would love to chat! (no contact info in your hn profile)

  If you find out where engineers can work remote in the RP with acceptable up/down speeds, I'd be interested in hearing about it.

    There are a few co-working spaces around Makati in Metro Manila and a few in Cebu. These are probably also the only areas where you will be able to find decent internet connection speeds. Also OT: I'm a student from Germany who studied in the Philippines for a while. I'm always interested to go back for a few months. If you have an office in PH and looking for motivated developers, don't hesitate to contact me.

      Thanks; there's also "Negros First CyberCentre" in Bacolod City, Negros Occidental: http://www.negros-occ.gov.ph/current-events/press-release/photo-release/inauguration-of-negros-first-cybercentre.html http://www.negros-occ.gov.ph/current-events/press-release/ph... It would be great if it were possible to rent office space there, assuming you could get decent up/down speeds. Bacolod City is a nice jumping-off spot for the rest of the Visayas (and things like island-hopping and scuba diving).

        If you are looking for a jumping-off spot for the Visayas, Metro Cebu is the place to go. It is a hub for the Philippine Nautical Highway and has the 2nd largest airport in the country, with cheap flights to everywhere in the Philippines and Southeast Asia.

          Cebu is also good. Easy to get from there to Palawan, Dumaguete City, Bohol, Negros, Guimaras, etc.
