If you want to find out more about Damosa Land and their projects, check out https://damosaland.com/ Is the Philippine economy facing a massive structural shift, and what is the ultimate economic "Plan B"? In this episode, I sit down with Ricardo "Cary" Lagdameo, CEO of Damosa Land, to uncover the hidden macroeconomic and real estate arbitrage happening right now in Mindanao. With inflation previously hitting 7.2% and GDP slowing down, smart institutional capital is quietly making moves outside of Manila. We discuss the severe logistical nightmares plaguing the country, including why shipping from Metro Manila to Davao can inexplicably cost more than shipping from the Philippines to China. Lagdameo breaks down how the media-driven "Mindanao stigma" is creating a steep valuation discount for real estate investors, and why multi-generational developers are forced to build their own sovereign infrastructure—including international ports located just 300 meters from their industrial parks. Discover why Mindanao, holding massive reserves of critical minerals and offering power rates up to 35% cheaper than Manila, is perfectly positioned to capture global manufacturing away from China.
