Hi Big J,
my father in law who is German and his friends spend 6months a year here in Cagayan de Oro City in Mindanao. I can't say it for other cities in Mindanao, but here, I've never heard of a foreigner being in a dangerous situation (ie. kidnapped). My father-in-law even walk going to his favorite bar (about 2km) from their house.
