To everyone sharing the false news and spreading lies trying to gain sympathy for the wrong cause. Let's set the facts straight:

1. The 2 victims were in different grade levels. According to classmates, they didn't know each other nor interact. Dylan Wee was liked by his peers. He was NOT a bully in any way, shape, or form.

2. Dylan did not play Roblox. So it's impossible they had a fight there either.

3. There was no bullying (as already mentioned by SILG Remulla) at all. And for the sake of argument, wouldn't the proper response be to tell the parents or proper authorities instead? Nael Jalani's dad is a high ranking official in the Customs Police. I'm sure they have the proper connections and means. You cannot say otherwise. For further argument, he was a member of a fraternity, and we all know it's a tough road getting into any fraternity. The fact that his response was to bring guns speaks volumes about him and how he was raised.

4. The membership to a fraternity also speaks against him being weak and also unlikely being autistic as many keep sharing.

Hi Zamboanga! 👋

I’m helping with a Buwan ng Wika activity for a preschool class from Bacolod, and we’d like to introduce the kids to something that represents Zamboanga and Mindanao.

We’re looking for something kid-friendly, easy to bring to Bacolod, and preferably individually wrapped or shelf-stable. Something they can taste, see, or take home.

I’m considering things likedurian candy, local sweets, banana chips, cacao/tableya, etc., but I’d love to hear from locals:

What food, snack, candy, or small local product would you recommend that really represents Zamboanga/Mindanao?

Ideally:

▪ 👧 Preschool-friendly

▪ 🎒 Easy to transport

▪ 🌡️ Doesn't require refrigeration

▪ 🇵🇭 Has some cultural significance

▪ 🤔 Something kids from Bacolod may find interesting or different

Would appreciate any suggestions from locals! What would you give a preschooler visiting Zamboanga to let them experience a little bit of Mindanao?

Hello guys! I plan to purchase a window-type inverter air conditioner this week and would appreciate recommendations for affordable, high-quality stores located within the City proper.

Hi my sister visited Zamboanga few years ago and bought a powder (orange color) we used it to marinate the meats. She was able to buy it in barter. Hope someone can help me find that powder.

Edit she bought it in barter/its in a clear plastic ... Like a breading mix for chicken or all types of meat

Pls share your experience sa mga clinic na namention. Gusto ko na po maayos yung teeth and bite ko huhuhu

Thank you si much!!

Funny how BARMM politicians are appointed or elected na d ila respective government positions (usually in Islands) pero staying full time in Zamboanga. Take note, these are rich individuals pa ako who is conducting business and almost most of the time spending here or residing in Zamboanga.

I mean, how can they see the real situation of their province/municipality if they are here living full time? How they can do their day to day jobs if most of them made their homes here as their extension offices. Conducting meetings here in the city instead of helping their own place for there man establish businesses or conduct meetings to improve their economy, employment, etc.

What are your thoughts in this? This kinda cringes me as usually sila pa matapang aki kanatun.

i think I have caught sti and it's very uncomfortable down there, gusto ko mag pa check but I don't know where to go or which clinic/hospital to go huhu badly needed now mapa public or private hospital man please where can I get screening/check ups for sti?? Huhubu nakakahiya at the same time pag ask huhu

Hi po, my phone is Samsung A53 5G, pumunta ako kahapon sa repair shop for battery replacement and the cost was ₱2,500 and I thought it would solve the sudden powering off kasi I thought the battery was the issue and nag nonotify din ang phone na the battery is deteriorating. Then I tried using it and same pa rin ang issue na when I play videos on TikTok nag susudden power off siya. So binalik ko yung phone sa kanila and sabi nila na iiwan ko daw para ma-monitor nila and today, sabi ng technician is "yung charging IC daw ang may problema due to overcharging and the cost of repair will be ₱1,500". Worth it ba?

We tried asking our old surveyor and he is charging 12k for about 50sqm lot only. I was a bit shock sa charging nya kasi ang liit ng lot, while he just charged us 20k for a 2000sqm lot last time. May minimum charge ba mga surveyors kahit sa maliit na lot? Can you reco another surveyor for us? Kung meron sana phone number na din, salamat.

Hi. Who among you here nakapag-try mag-avail ng Gfiber prepaid. Usually how many days hanggang sa makapunta talaga sila for installation. Nag-schedule kasi ako for installation nung Friday pa. Puro sila reschedule without prior notice. Nakakapagod mag-wait if pupunta ba sila or hindi.
