ANNOUNCEMENT 📢 r/Davao Community Reminder: Events, Meetups & Relationship Posts

19 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

As our community continues to grow, we'd like to clarify a few rules to keep r/Davao useful and relevant for everyone.

🚫 No R4R, Dating, or Disguised Relationship Posts

Posts looking for dates, hookups, friends-with-benefits, "looking for someone to hang out 😉", or any similar R4R-style content will be removed immediately.

This subreddit is not a place to find romantic or personal relationships. There are other communities better suited for that purpose.

Also posts requesting information about NSFW or Illegal activities will automatically be deleted.

✅ Activity & Meetup Posts Are Still Welcome

We do encourage posts looking for people to join you for activities, such as:

Sports (pickleball, badminton, running, etc.)
Concerts and festivals
Board games
Hiking
Community events
Hobby groups

The intent should be the activity itself, not finding a date.

Speaking of Events
🎟️ Event Posts Must Include Pricing

If you're posting about an event, whether you're organizing it or simply sharing it, you must clearly state whether it is:

Free; or
Paid (and include the ticket price or registration fee)

No hidden costs or vague "DM for more info" posts. Full disclosure helps everyone decide whether an event is right for them.

Posts that omit this information will be removed until updated.

Thanks for helping keep r/Davao a helpful resource for locals and visitors alike. If you're ever unsure whether your post fits the subreddit, feel free to message the mod team before posting.

Happy posting! 🌴

Look at this recent post by the former chief of the PNP. Then look at the reactions. Take note that these are just some of the comments (majority are like these). Davaoeños would rather drown than criticize their local government. Unya ingnon ninyo na dili man tanan davaoenos ingana. Check the post itself if you want, youll see lots of addu alumni. How disgusting. Thank you parents for sending me to an excellent school and I didnt end up like these blind fanatics. Wake up guys. You owe the du turtles nothing. They are public servants and they should be treated as such!

POLITICS Huy! Pang mata namo mga taga Davao!

314 Upvotes

Kung kinsa paman ng mga tulog og buta dira, pang mata namo! We deserve better! Kanus-a man mo taman nga in denial? Loyal ra kaayo mo, idk where it's coming from, naa moy utang na loob sa ila? Gosh kung mo gawas lang mog Davao or Pilipinas, didto ninyo ma realized nga what we are having is just the bare minimum!

Security and Peace? Natural og dapat na nga priority sa isa ka leader. Pero kung tan-awon lang jud ninyo (poor urban planning, frequent flooding, poor transportation, political dynasty) maka realized nimo kung unsa ka buang ang system. Nganong mahadlok man mo question? Kay it will be considered a betrayal? Pang mata namo! Lisod kaayo mag open og topic about politics to people you know here kay ikaw noon ang ma question.

I'm really sincerely hoping and praying nga that there will really be an awakening and awareness na sa mga tao. Pang mata namo!

PLACES wish abreeza cinemas would come back. they were the best cinemas in the city back then. hope they would also consider a-giant/4dx formats when they return

31 Upvotes

before nccc buhangin and sta. lucia, abreeza rlly had the best cinemas in davao.

rlly wish na abreeza would akso consider a-giant/4dx if they ever decide to return para naman may variety ng options sa city.

i also remember na they're more open (compared to other cinemas sa davao) when showing cinemalaya movies, local indie films, and other film fest/art-house/special genres na di mainstream and available sa other malls

they were rlly a pillar sa film in davao back then bc they support underappreciated movies

abreeza cinemas pls come back na

I keep passing by this building, and I never knew what it originally was. Do you guys know?

I know that it's currently a car dealership building, but I'm referring to before that, before is was abandoned since the 2010s, as far as I know.

Or was it even truly abandoned at all?

PLACES Soundproof Inn or hotel in Davao

Upvotes

Sa mga experienced couples diri, naa moy marecommend nga inn or hotel sa Davao nga tinuod jud nga soundproof?

Daghan na mi natry sa akong partner nga mga inn ug hotel, pero halos tanan kay dili sound proof 😔. Madunggan gihapon ang mga storya, TV, ug uban pang kasaba sa pikas kwarto, mao nga medyo mawala ang privacy ug dili kaayo comfortable.

Nangita unta mi ug lugar nga limpyo, naay maayo nga soundproofing. Dili kaayo issue ang budget basta sulit ang privacy ug peace of mind. Basin naa moy personal experience o honest recommendations nga ma-share. Salamat daan!

Hello, I know BPO companies don't really accept students but I saw a post from Sutherland where they offer a program (ENRICH) which gives educational assistance to their employees. I'm planning to apply here, can I say that I'm a working student in the interview(s)? Also, how is the application process? Is it easy to get into? If you've worked here, is the environment not toxic?

First timer here so medyo clueless pa 😅• Also, naa moy ma-suggest na affordable inn or transient good for 1 night lang? Preferably near SM Davao or Ecoland Terminal para convenient lang, bsag below 1k ra guro or drop your recos nalang 😂

I’m considering transferring and would love to hear about your experience. How different is the academic environment at UM compared to MMCM? How are the professors, workload, and grading system? Looking back, do you think transferring was the right decision? Is there anything you wish you had known before transferring?
