I’m a Filipino and I’ve been to different countries before. You know what I realized? That Filipinos deserve better. We have the most beautiful sceneries, abundant natural resources, and most hardworking people. But since politicians don’t care about the citizens, good governance is rare. Can’t expect people from poverty to be disciplined and to follow all the rules when there are people in power who can’t even do their jobs.

Did this vlogger say thank you for the gifts? I don’t remember ( hope I’m wrong) . I remember him saying thank you to the people that helped him “ you know who you are” 😂😂😂.

I changed the title back and forth. I'm just keeping the original for right now. I'm trying to find the most accurate title for what I'm presenting, which I find a bit tough since I'm still working on my second video. I have a lot to say and I it was very eye opening for me to travel to a developing country for the first time. I've lived in two very wealthy G7 countries my entire life, so I guess I could say I had some "culture shock" getting a brief glimpse into the lives of those who weren't as fortunate as my family. Probably my biggest takeaway is that I think there are so many things that I take for granted while living in Canada and Japan. Like we complain about our corrupt government, and I think we should always push our politicians to do better, but I think we may not realize how well our governments run. Infrastructure, safety, a clean environment; these are examples of things the average person doesn't worry about, allowing us to focus on higher level wants. I wish I could have taken my kids along with me so that they could realize how lucky they have it. But I also feel guilty for saying that, because it sounds so condescending. Since my trip, I've been contemplating on what I could do to help people in situations less fortunate than my own. I honestly feel a bit helpless, since I think what's most needed is some big infrastructure projects that I could never help with like sanitation and transportation. For example, I was thinking about doing some more Kiva loans, but in the big picture, what will be the effect of helping someone fix up their Jeepney be? I have no doubt it'd be good on an individual level, but I feel like the real solution to transportation issues around Metro Manila requires government involvement. I'm not saying the government has to control the whole space, but someone needs to have a better plan and be able to arrange for the financing needed to transform the current situation. However, having read several news stories and studies, I also know it's just not that easy. The agency in charge not only doesn't have the funds, but they also face strong opposition from anyone who could be hurt from changing the status quo. The poor family relying on the tiny income they get from driving a Jeepney doesn't want to see anything happen that jeopardizes their family's well being. I'll say one thing though, which was the heartwarming part of the trip: the families. It was really nice to see how close the families were and how supportive they were of each other. The sacrifices being made, whether it's a parent who goes off working overseas to support the family, or the older sister that's now paying for the education of her younger siblings. Or even just the small things, like the father and daughter showing me their gardens or another father and daughter shopping together. I could really feel the closeness. And they were close, because in both instances they lived a minute away from their parents. If there's one stereotype that I think is true, it's that Filipinos are really quite friendly and hospitable. I have a feeling that despite wanting my next video to be in the 20-30 minute range, I might just make it longer so that I can take the time to really get through all the stories I heard and what my whole thought process was. That was my first time trying to tell a few stories from another country, so I'm still learning how to best make videos about my experiences. All the best, Greg

Poverty must have been a by-gone issue if only corrupt leaders are not elected. Filipinos have long been fully developed if not these leaders putting premium on politicking and blame-throwing and not on development research and innovation. Lots of local products go on waste due to influx of imoprted goods eventually killing the local industry. Instead, the government, in cohort with saboteur/peddlers of illegal traders, not only condone but also become an an accomplice. It's been vicious and cyclical phils was left behind by korea and taiwan. While research and inquiry set aside, it was not a remote past when countries send their student's to study here and get a degree. Right now, phils regresses to a record high slump in literacy.

But most Filipinos I've met are the happiest people I've met. I hope that all Filipinos will have more opportunities to excel in life than the small opportunities they are given. Mahal na mahal ko po kayo!

You should move there even for just a few months. My folks brought us there to live with them when they worked in Asia. We were exposed to the poverty up close. It was confusing as a child but definitely eye opening. When I came back to the US for high school, I was disgusted by the over consumption and superficiality of western countries. The lack of appreciation of the most basic things is really disheartening.

Grew up and born in Tondo. Passed Tondo church daily on my walk from Sande back and forth to Divisoria to take the jeep to Quiapo to attend school. Did enjoyed my first 24 years there. Ate at carinderia near the old FEU. You would not appreciate Tondo unless you grew up there. Still missed the old days. Unfortunately I was denied re-entry back to Philippines by the government due to my Taiwan visa at that time(never been to Taiwan). It looks like I am destined to grow old in USA. I have been inside the Tondo Church a lot of times when it was abandoned and not yet renovated.

This is the most unbiased promotional video of my country I've ever seen even though it's outdated this deserves an award

I have stayed in three different AIRBNB's in Manila and none of them were "dirty". The one I stay at in Mandaluyong is attached to a mall and has two beautiful swimming pools. Of course, I always read the reviews . I have also never had any problem with crime and I ride the MRT all over. Yes, the country is emerging and Manila can really get in your face sometimes, but I truly love the people and their positive attitude. I come back to the U.S. and I start to miss them right away. P.S. The cabs from the airport are much cheaper if you take the regular cabs and not the ones reserved for tourists. They are white, not yellow.

I can’t believe how similar the Philippines is with Indonesian culture. Filipino culture is Asian, our cuisine- like most Asian countries rice is the staple food , languages, folklore, way of life, and people are majority genetically Asian. Language is the most basic and most important element in a culture. The Languages of the Philippines are all Austronesian languages and a close cousin of both Malay varieties in Malaysia, Brunei and Indonesia. Spanish loan words make up only a small proportion and many have been converted into Filipino versions. Hispanic influences are Christianity, surnames, etc Even “Filipino Catholicism” is actually “Folk catholicsm “ a combination of the religion the Spanish brought and the local animist and traditional beliefs.. many traditions from indigenous Philippine folk religions have been integrated into the local practice of Catholicism and Islam, resulting in "Folk Catholicism. The conservative traditionalist superstitious culture are all products of an Asian culture. Consider it like Britain's relationship to India. There are just numerous bubbles of resistance and self-preservation that prevented a complete takeover unlike most of Latin America. Filipino cuisine bears undeniable similarities to the cooking styles of its neighbouring countries,

A life style adapted to anything goes, whatever, low self esteem, undisciplined lowest standard of living. I can just go on and on listing the negative things I know.

All are competetive to the point of crab mentality culture at work tsk tsk good manners and and personal development of character must be thought from a young age. Japan is a good example and a model for that.

To those Filipinos who say that the video only shows Manila and not the whole of the Philippines have to remember that people residing and working in Manila are from the provinces.
