sorry, i cant understand nor speak cebuano.anyway re: your queries;
1. basically food here (some pinoy food are available at pinoy shops) is the same but only pork is not allowed.
2. even if it is really hot during summer, nobody is expected to work outside in the harshest time of the day.
3. you dont expect people to respect you just like that when you arrive here, you have to earn it.
4. yes, i know gama company (it's quite big) and in fact one of their company doctor is a pinoy friend.
