Yes it's going to take time, but to build a house, the first brick has to be laid. 

 Well from a few of the answers here and the inability at times for the LGO to achieve the desired result, maybe, the President is right and Negros needs Martial Law to bring back or instill Civil/ public Order, Then we can all Moan at the Extra Checkpoints and excessive  Enforcing of the Laws  but Who am I and who are we?

Yes Jack, sometimes we forget we are only visitors and everything should be as how we envisioned our own countries should be, maybe a good optometrist would make a good living back home, there plenty of s---- Barack home to wing about.

Reminds me that it may be time to remind ourselves of this old story.

Quote

Saint Monica and her son, Saint Augustine, found out that Saturday was observed as a fast day in Rome, where they planned to visit. However, it was not a fast day where they lived in Milan. They consulted Saint Ambrose who said "When I am here (in Milan) I do not fast on Saturday, when in Rome I do fast on Saturday." That reply is said to have brought about the saying "When in Rome, do as the Romans do."

Wonder how long the enforcement will last Jack.

Depends on if they are serious or not. It can be done if everyone believes that it's a permanent thing. If not it'll be back to the same.

They are serious, try and park legally in Dumaguete it's like winning the lottery for parking your car and finding a place that's legal to park Got my first parking ticket 2017 when they first enforced it.
