Exploring Tawi-Tawi Philippines (IS IT SAFE?)

Tawi-Tawi hasn't gotten the best press for the past few decades. But coming to this island and exploring its culture, I saw Tawi-Tawi for what it really is: a breathtakingly natural paradise.

[@divaslive6953]

We used to live there way back in 1988-89 because my father was a religious teacher called (ustadz), he teaches Qur'an, all the memories that I had with that place is still fresh in my memory, like it was just yesterday, we lived in SIBUTO island then afterward's moved to a smaller island called SIPANGKOT. During a full moon, the sea is so beautiful because it's like a mirror reflecting to the sea. At night it's so peaceful and so Silent. all you can see is the big full moon and all the stars that twinkling all over the sky. you still can see the big, medium and even small fishes swimming under your house because the water is so clear like a crystal. Those were a memory that will always be in my heart. And every time I saw the moon especially full moon it brings me back to that memory. I hope these beautiful parts of the island in the Php can be famous and get a good press report, not the bad one. Tawi-Tawi deserves more exposure because of its beauty that even to this very day some were still untouched by a human. 💗💖💓🌟🌙

I’ve always wanted to visit Tawi-Tawi but safety issues were a little bit concerning. You gave me the courage and open mind to visit this enchanting island!

[@NanayDivine]

I was pretty emotional while watching this. Yup, I can attest that it's really safe to visit Tawi-Tawi as we experienced it last 2016. The current mayor during that time gave us a free Panampangan Island tour. My gas, I wish we could go back and catch up with the people we met back then. Good job, Erwan! 😘

Tawi-Tawi the hidden paradise of Philippines, that world deserve to be seen!

[@menkmik]

but unfortunately it‘s unsafe as fuck..

[@nekomancer7319]

Speaking as a half Samal. Tawi-Tawi is a fucking shithole, I lived there with my relatives for a while, makes me so grateful that I was raised in Manila. If you have a large family and resides in a community island with a population of hundreds or whatnot, you'll be perfectly fine. However, if you are in the capital Bongao or atleast close to the main island, it's a VERY dangerous place. You're basically residing with illiterate and desperate people along with most of the country's terrorists squandering around the islands.

[@LarryfromPH]

@@nekomancer7319 So what do you think is the solution? That place begs to be a tourist destination!

[@mikolocolocomikolocoloco7555]

This guy deserves more subs! 🔥 content bro!

[@adrimab.9665]

exactly!

[@dormitorychef4454]

I'm from Simunul and documentaries like this one makes me happy. Tawi-Tawi is still fighting over the misconception of being a dangerous place, which is not the case btw. I've been to Manila and Zamboanga City but whenever people hear that I'm from Tawi-Tawi they immediately thought that the reason I was in Manila or ZC was because I was fleeing instead of travelling for vacation. I do hope people will appreciate how people in Tawi-Tawi cherished peace more than anything else. Also, the Sangay Siapo, the island between Bongao and Simunul, has been renovated and made to cater tourist. You can also rent the place and have your wedding in the island. Hopefully you can all visit after the pandemic. Stay safe and healthy everyone!

[@AizaJournals]

Amazing!! Erwan thank you for this episode. You correct the misconception that Muslim areas are not safe. It is wrong and we have our own culture, we have our own way of life. We love peace. Our religion is peace, it's just some people put an insult in it, and represent it in a wrong way. 😊👏👏 Great! Thank you!

[@fitrinuriandinisayidi564]

Indonesia has Raja Ampat as beautiful tourism destination. The government and local people run the place with good manajemen and some set rules. If you can do it the same for Tawi2 then it can benefit to economies for the local people. Preserve the local religion, culture, food and enviromant.

[@jasmineromano5554]

Same as my countryside and people are making the sea and suba very dirty

[@SuperMoekey]

Hi, I was born and raised in Tawi-Tawi, although I am not staying there anymore, I can truly agree with you. I've been to other places and most of them are already destroyed by tourists and also by the negligence of the government and the people. I just hope Tawi-Tawi remains untouched but a part of me wants Tawi-Tawi to be a tourist spot as well. It could generate more businesses and jobs for the people there. I just hope that if that day comes, The tourists would respect the place and the people, the culture and the local religion. I also hope that when that happens, the people and the government could maintain what Tawi-Tawi has always been... ...a paradise. :)

Hi Erwan, you may or may not read this comment, but if you do, "thank you" alone is not enough of how grateful the people of tawi-tawai are. This video will deflect the overly-wronged perception of how unsafe the Southern Philippines is and that includes tawi-tawi. I'm glad that you had a great time in Tawi tawi and the locals treated you nicely. Tawi-tawi is abundant with seafood products, mouthwatering cuisines and of couse, the breathtaking views. Hope this video will be seen by more than 106millions Filipinos worldwide and serve as an-eyeopener for all. let's hit 1M views #itissafeintawitawi Merci Monsieur.

I've seen this video before when it first came out. It just came to my mind those island in our country like Tawi-Tawi. You're very lucky to explore that beautiful island not all people had a chance to enjoy it like that. And to Ms. Gina, who had made an impact to our country, our environment . Her memory lives on.
