I hear ya on the current state of the Phillipines, my God daughter is "Pinoy" and some close friends also.\
But it's the internet buddy, everybody's anonymous. Unless you have your friend's real name, tel# or address, it's unlikely that you'll have any luck finding him unless he's still using the same alias somewhere and you happen to bump into him on the net. A lot of the time people just get wrapped up in their lives and stray away from the internet "alternate universe", usually when reality takes over... Good luck man.
