Padami daw ng padami ang bilang ng mga namamatay dahil sa mga pag-aatake ng mga terorista, ayun sa ranking report na isinagawa ng Maplecroft.

Ang mga bansa na extreme risk ayun sa kanila ay ang mga sumusunod:Iraq

Maplecroft's Terrorism and Security Dashboard found:

• Twelve countries are classed as "extreme risk"; Iraq topped the list, followed by Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Yemen, Syria, Lebanon and Libya.
• It also includes the growth economies of Nigeria, the Philippines, Colombia and Kenya.
• Iraq, rated as the highest risk country, recorded more than three times as many acts of terrorism as Pakistan with 3,158 attacks resulting in 5,929 deaths - an increase of 2,188 on the previous year.
• In Nigeria, the campaign of violence by Islamic militant group Boko Haram saw the country record the highest number of fatalities per attack, resulting in 3,477 killed - an average of 24 people killed per attack, compared to two deaths per attack in Iraq.

“Investor confidence in key sectors, including tourism and oil and gas, has been hurt,” Jordan Perry, a political risk analyst at Maplecroft, said in a statement, referring to turmoil in Libya, Kenya and Egypt. “When faced with rising security costs and decreasing safety for their personnel, companies can, and do, reconsider their country-level commitments.”

The report says investors may also want to monitor activity in Nigeria, the Philippines, Colombia and Kenya, all high-growth economies that fall into the “extreme risk” category.

Mayor Rodrigo Duterte: You Will Regret it if I Become President of the Philippines

Mayor Rodrigo Duterte is saying that the people will regret it if he decided to run and win as Philippine president.

MAYOR DUTERTE: MAGSISISI KAYO KUNG AKO ANG MAGIGING PRESIDENTE! 

Anchorwoman: Now because of the Senate Hearing, lumakas na ang panawagan na ikaw ay tatakbong pagkapangulo ngayong 2016 na election?

Mayor Duterte: Kayong mga taga Davao at kayong mga Pilipino, makinig kayo ha. Sinabi ko na dati, at sinasabi ko ulit for the nth time dito: Hindi ako interesado na maging Presidente, hindi ako qualified, di ko gusto, wala akong makukuha dyan. Ngayon, mananatili akong mayor,o  kung ayaw na ninyo sa akin, bababa ako, o kung hindi na kaya ng aking katawan, bababa ako sa pagkamayor.

Wala akong interes sa pagiging presidente. Hindi ako qualified, hindi rin ako interesado. So i hope that, you know, yang mga naglalaro ng pangalan ko dyan sa pagiging presidente, Stop it! I'm pleading to you to stop it. 

Anchorwoman: Aside sa mga lumabas na mga grupo na nananawagan na ikaw ay tumakbo, meron na bang lumapit sayo na mga influential people for you, or convincing you na tatakbo lalo na ang mga politiko.

Mayor Duterte: (Ayan na naman) Wala! Di rin naman ako mageentertain ng mga kwento kwento. Sasabihin ko naman na *******. I just treat it nonchalant. Hindi bagay sa atin yan. 

Hindi naman talaga bagay, bakit ako magiging presidente? Bakit ako magiging presidente, magtratrabaho ako? tapos ipapakulong ninyo ako? Saan man yan sila papunta, di ba sa kulungan?

Dalawang pangulo na ang nakulong. Gagawin ninyo akong ex convict?

Pagkatapos, kung ako ang inyong magiging pangulo... Kung! Kung may milagro na ako ang inyong magiging pangulo, magsisisi kayong lahat!

Anchorwoman: Bakit naman?

Mayor Duterte: Ah sus ginoo.

Anchorwoman: Papatayin mo lahat?

Mayor Duterte: Basta magsisisi kayong lahat!

Sasabihin niyo pang: buti pa sanang di **************

>>> Yang Custom, ipapasara ko yan! Sasabihin nila, sir madami ng barko, sasabihin ko, ah ang laki ng dagat, parking kayo dyan lahat!
