 The address resolved is in '''Masbate''' area. This is is more than
 '''140km''' away.

 The address also resolved to '''county:Carles''', which is part of
 '''Iloilo''' Province, of the Panay island.

 The northern part of islands Negros and Panay, PH ... seem to resolve to
 Masbate (an island and a province/region away).

 Various zoom levels yield the same result.


 Thanks and regards,

 Dex
