Worst Cities in the World?

[civil_servant]

not sure about taichung

but kaohsung and kenting area were quite nice places in taiwan, very comparable to taipei, apart from the bizarre koisk that sells only betlenuts and cigarette, nothing that much bad about these places, the cleanliness is also much much better than some parts of shenzhen or bangkok, as well as the fact there don't seem to many shady/dodgy areas in these places unlike shenzhen or bangkok

Lots of dodgy places in Taiwan too. Gangsters everywhere. Nonetheless, one of the most underrated places to visit. Beautiful country with plenty to see and good affordable food everywhere. Kenting is indeed nice. However, cities, they don't do well.

well, taiwan is a bit backwards, well, out of the other asian tigers countries, taiwan has been left out compared to others

yes, there are taiwanese triads, but like hk, how many triad related deaths per annum? 2-3 per a year, there is more child gun deaths in the states on weekly basis than triad related deaths per year in hk or taiwan

Caracas, Cape Town, Mogadishu for me.

Caracas, . . .

Venezuela is getting worse by the minute. Sadly has nothing to do with natural disaster or conflicts . . . just misguided and economy-destroying Chavez-ism.

I can't believe Manila is not on the list. Hellhole. There were plans to shift the capital up to the new city being built in Clark before Manila collapses.

I thought that Puerto gallera was set up to be the summer capital?

Baguio is the official summer presidential residence.

The capital seems to be shifting to Davao anyway as the new president (who wants to be called Mayor not president) is making everyone foreign or domestic travel there to see him.

Does that mean that the mayor is now obliged to take calls from Cy? Sorry for the tangent.

I love a tangent as you know. Not until July 1st. It would have to be at night, Duterte works at night. If the hijacking had happened under Duterte then action would have been taken much quicker with a better outcome I expect - though if CY had called he would probably have been told "fuck off I'm busy sorting it".
