		<description>Cebu is the best to outsource. CEBU is already an emerged BPO destination according to THOLONS compared to DAVAO as emerging. LOL!

Cebu talents also has a high English literacy rate compared to Davao pipz.. Most people from Davao go to CEBU CITY to find a JOB. An indication that CEBU is the preferred working environment for most people in Central and Southern Philippnes.</description>

		<description>Cebu is not that booming a few years back (1995). I started investing in Cebu in 2009 and I have no regrets. My company is expanding. Cebu is the next boom town in Asia.</description>

		<description>I was one of the first Americans to open a PH corp devoted solely to outsourcing work from Cebu-- 1995-- ClickStream Marketing, Inc.  Looking to go back there and hire people on contract basis.  The good is that a lot more people have skills that were non exhistent, and the bad is that I do think there may be a  bit too much competition specifically for people doing webwork.

Davao seems like a cool city to visit.  Any insites as to how up to speed designers, web marketers, and devo people are?  Maybe it&#039;s like Cebu was 4 years ago (and same super cheap prices).</description>
