pre-TAR 24 speculation

There's possibly zero to no chance of Philippines, they just had an earthquake two weeks ago and now the typhoon is really bad.

It's almost over now.. moving onwards to Vietnam.. although I really want them to visit and pay tribute to all the lives lost in this typhoon in Philippines. :(

Manila wasn't affected by the recent Typhoon, only the city of Tacloban (in the island of Leyte) in the Central part of the Country was hit by a powerful typhoon and the island of Bohol was affected by last month's earthquake. I guess Manila is a safe place to visit teams for TAR24 after numerous visits in Indonesia in the last three seasons (with the upcoming Indonesian leg coming up on the current season of TAR).
Tacloban and Bohol (both in Visayan archipelago) are now dangerous and zero tolerance to visit there. Manila is likely and the weather during the months of November and December are much warmer with mild temperatures by night.

I think that's even more reason they'd go to the Philippines now if it was already on the itinerary.
If the Philippines was already on the route, I don't see them changing it since I doubt they would've gone to the Visayas region anyway (they had gone to Puerto Princesa for TAR5).
If it wasn't on the list already, then I don't think they'd change the route just to make a stop in the Philippines, but definitely for TAR25.
Phil has always retweeted/replied to fans who mention the Philippines to them, plus I'm sure Survivor's good 2-year experience in the Philippines will have encouraged CBS to support a Leg or two.

I know Manila is generally safe.. but I'm not pinning my hopes high. :(
