i've been to maguindanao....didn't stay just passed by.
anyway, as what my colleagues told me...it's INDIAN COUNTRY.
i really have no idea about it, until i knew how their local politics....damn.
it's like their local leaders acts as if they were feudal lords(exagerated na ang warlord)...people do disapear in those areas...just a norm.
if you've seen the news lately, their leaders have their very own barracks for their bodygurad/goons/private army....guess whose side finance them...ate GLOW.
come to think of it, its like the Bratislavia from the movie "HOSTEL".
