as an indonesian i hope they can put more emphasis on the younger generation and fix some rules, i have a filipino friend whose family has been damaged by poverty and makes them no longer cared for. I wish the best for the philippines
Thank you👊
Saya suka hal-hal yang baik! Love from Colombia 🇨🇴 ♥️🇮🇩&🇵🇭
Thanks. I googled - from the vid i thought they were the only two - i see there's are several. Your summary was informative thanks
thank you. the poor ones have been the most neglected ones since I was born. the problem is not really with every president that lead the country, but the system of politicking. it’s hard to eradicate it
Terimakase . Coming from you it means something. Our countries are victims of a shady government.
That one young man had it right. The primary issue in the Philippines is that corruption has almost become a part of their culture. It is not only a systemic issue, but also a moral one. The reason why Filipino politicians are corrupt is because the catamaran operator is also corrupt. The corruption permeates all of society. One thing he didn't quite address is that the Filipino people learned this from the Spanish colonists. It's also a big thing in Chinese culture, (bribes) both of which have had tremendous impact on the Filipino people.
Unfortunately, this won't end well for ordinary Filipinos. They are an industrious, hardworking people, but, as a people, there needs to be a paradigm shift in how society in the Philippines operates, not just their political systems.
Wtf seriously??? 🤨 Corruption in the PH is connected to Spanish colonialism???
All countries that were colonized by Spain are still corrupt even this present day 🥶🫣🤑👎😤
Submissive and cowards, that's what we are :))
How can we change the society? This is an important question, and the key to at least weaken the corrupt systems. But, how can we do it?
@@la-kv2jr
Maybe change needs to start in the individual scale. Filipinos seem to think that the country's fate solely depends on the leaders in power, and expect them to turn things around by themselves. It seems enough people have no concept of self-improvement, let alone self-criticism, thinking that they can't be part of the problem too.
But that's just my opinion. I always hope for the better.
Take note: These are the opinions of the people in Metro Manila. It would be nice to get the perspective of the people in the other provinces.
agree. But it doesn't matter coz the people have already chosen the next President of the Philippines. And I'm glad I voted for the person. Mabuhay ang Pilipinas.
True. Puro war on drugs comment nila. Nakaka irita. Punta sila dito down south and this Asian Boss will hear a different answer
@@inyourdreams7754 feel ko talaga jaded tayo sa south...😅
I mean, he said it's gonna be bloody..so I really expected it to be bloody. Though, mas ok nga naman rehabilitation and redemption, pero feel ko kasi ang pinoy di na sumusunod sa batas because wala na silang takot sa batas.
@@jacquesdaniels2435 matagal kasi silang nasanay na hindi sila nadidisiplina. Kaya nung naupo si Digong, andaming nangamba.
@@inyourdreams7754 Hindi naman sa nangamba sila dahil ayaw nila sa disiplina, the point of their protest is just to stop the police from killing innocent people. Because of Duterte’s campaign on War on Drugs, Police were given the authority to lead it and take it as advantage to kill their innocent enemies and just random people and labeled them as a drug user who resisted to them which is very unjust. Families of those victims didn’t get the justice that they wanted as their enemies are the police which hiding behind the our President’s back.
Pls don’t be too close minded. Hindi pagiging npa/communist ang pagprotesta sa kamalian ng gobyerno. May demokrasya tayo para gawin yun kaya dapat nating gamitin yun at wag magpakabingi at magpapaniwala sa mga fake news
As I Filipino-Taiwanese, I found similarities between Taiwan and the Philippines in this election.
We're both young democracies that got true democracy within a few decades (Lee Teng-Hui in Taiwan, and EDSA in the Philippines), we're both under the shadow between the US and China, and we share a martial law period (except that Taiwan had a longer one).
I hope the Philippines the best... Whether if Marcos or Roberdo will be the president, hope that Filipinos make a decision that no one regrets.
Yeah, hoping that the elected leaders are real public servants , and not just thinking about themselves having power
I should start researching Taiwanese history because everything you said is interesting!! 🤔👍🏼
I also heard the martial law era of Taiwan
Marcos and Leni aren't the only candidates. Isko has accomplishments to prove he is capable of becoming President.
That's nice, did you know that one of the most recent ethnic Chinese migration to the Philippines came from the Kuomintang supporters, they even proudly raise the flag in their homes when they came, and we welcomed them. I hope to have a stronger Taiwan-Philippines partnership in the future.
I like their language. I like that you will often hear Spanish and English words pop out making you understand tiny bits of it. And its a wonderfully beautiful country as well. I had the most wonderful time on holiday there.
There's alot of "pero"😄
Interesting! Some people found it to be annoying 😅...I can see why though! 😂 After hearing Lebanese people speak (they mix Arabic, English and French) now I know how people feel when they hear us Filipinos talk! 😂
Soon you will hear chunks of mandarin sprinkled in
How well do u understand?
@@anonymous-one gago hahaha
As a Filipino who grew up abroad, I can see things that Filipinos who lived their entire lives in the Phillippines can't see. The entertainment industry and politics are entertwined. There's no boundaries celebrities think they know best and they think they know enough to work in politics. But honestly the reason why they're getting into politics is because they LOVE fame and money. They don't love to genuinely help people. They ingeniounly help because they love the attention they get. The people who vote for them are fanatics its really like a cult. This goes the same for the beauty pageant industry, but thats another topic for another time. *And this is just my opinion only I'm not saying I'm right by no means.*
How could you know all these things? Do you even visit the country?
I see the same. and nobody addresses the cause of the problems.
1. poverty
2. education (lack of)
3.overpopulation
4. Church (not really helping the poor, only keeps them making more babies)
5. corruption (plundering money (amnd Marcos son will stop the investigation into his father)
6. selling out the country to other nations (we know to who) NOTHING has happened, only promises and still selling out the islands BongBong will do the same.
and so on.
its not the drug problem. its education, corrupton and international money damaging the Ph. (fueled by low level of education)
@@crackerloverboy U dont need get bitten by King Cobra to say venomous. The point is ppl read facts the past & current events thru net
@@crackerloverboy Yes I do lol. Thats how I was able to closely observe my home country.
Absolutely correct. They go into politics just to stay relevant and famous after their acting career has past its peak.
Also you’ll see most artistas all politically swing one way in this election because their fame depends on it (in their minds at least) and will try and influence their fan following to vote their way.
Things need to be better and that young man in the video is correct, more needs to be invested in education. That way in future elections the Filipinos are well educated to see through the BS and vote wisely through what they can calculate is in the country’s best interest.
I think it would be nice if they would interview people from different classes. I think it would clear out the difference and similarities of our thoughts on issues.
Different classes, ages and dialects would be nice
Right?
As a neighbor from the south, I hope that whoever is elected as president is someone who has qualities and is dedicated to making the Philippines a better place.
🌷🌷🌷
Isko is like Joko Widodo or even better.
@@cruzergo glad to hear that 🙏🏼
@@ahmadin5681
Depends on the individual.
Lol, it's like we elected a child of Suharto. Ugh.
This was an interesting one for me. The level of cynicism, and clear understanding of what politicians should be doing for their citizens was incredibly high. Higher than I would expect in my own country.
In hindsight, these are just few individuals... Doesnt exactly represent the majority, but we got a taste of the situation at least.
If you think a lot of Filipinos understand what really is going on in the country, then you are sorely mistaken.
No, not at all. Like really really really not at all. The people interviewed would be considered far smarter than average.
You're right in saying most of them have a clear understanding of what politicians should be doing...UNTIL they say the name of the politician they support. They spoke of battling corruption and the issue of Philippine sovereignty, particularly of the West Philippine Sea, then claims that the current administration is doing a great job. There's a huge disconnect. Truth is, the current administration is one of the most corrupt in PH history, not to mention that some of them were done at the expense of a proper pandemic response. The current president has done nothing to protect the sovereignty of the PH. In fact, he did the opposite--he has shown favor to the Chinese government A LOT MORE THAN the Filipino people. Disinformation is the biggest problem in the Philippines right now.
@@winzyl9546 except for the guy with the beige mask who said "that's how politics work in our country" as an answer to why famous people run for office. this is a below to average response mostly given by people especially in social media because they don't understand that: we live in a democracy, people don't like typical politicians and those famous people have altruistic intentions. it's not just the assumption that "those people are just taking advantage of people and those said people are dumb for voting them"
As a minor who isn't registered yet, I'm hoping that those who have the privilege to vote should choose the right and most appropriate candidate to win the election. It is our future that is on the line.
dont worry. millions of poor people will elect a former dictators son who will stop the investigation into his fathers plunder.
LEARN from this and when you are allowed to vote look beyond star status and celebrity and check their agenda.
selling out the country to a nation in the north. islands, fishing right, same as Duterte has done.
BongBong is worse. you will see.
@@jpjay1584 Don't generalize the million of impoverished Filipino people, just because of their status it does not mean that all of them supports Bongbong Marcos. And you're talking about halting the investigation of his father's plunder? No way. Thousands of Filipino have been killed, tórtured, prisoned and disappeared during the Martial Law era, justice should be served for the victims who only wanted freedom and peace. The Marcoses should be held accountable by their dehumanizing act and bring back what they stole from the people. This is not disinformation, this is TRUTH and telling the TRUTH is not character assassination. Don't turn a blind eye.
@@kleshie I love the Philippines, thats why I am careful with "hopes and wishes". I want you to be right, but so far I see the same patterns all over the world. "normal people" tend to forget. I wish you are right and I wish Ph will not be sold out to "foreign investors" what happened under Duterte and still people love him and say he did good things. your islands near your shore will fall into hands of an other country. Duterte said boldly he will go there with a speed boat, bla bla, and when it all happened he did nothing .he said that was a joke and sold out more of your country into the hands of...
good luck with losing more of your territorial waters. people still think Duterte was doing good things but he didnt. and Bongbong will be worse.
lets hope you are right, but its looking very dark. I have not much hope. sorry
You are just a kpop lover influenced easily and swayed easily. I saw Reveluvs (which I am) voting Leni just caus she held a Reveluv Lightstick. Disgusting...
both of ya'll technically on the same side why ya'll arguing
As a Filipino diaspora, it’s good to see news from the homeland being covered, It’d be interesting to hear the opinions from those who speak the different languages like Ilocano, Waray-waray, Cebuano, Hiligaynon, or people not just in Manila though.
True... especially here in Waray Land..
True...
Nakakainis puro manila lang 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Every vote counts. That is how the Filipino mind works. We see the election as a means to show our love, passion, anger, or disgust towards politicians. It is a voice for the voiceless.
....which is unfortunately really, really bad.
Making an informed choice as of who is at its fittest to lead the nation shouldn't be solely based on emotions and general subjectivity .... as this often gets in the way of making proper judgement.
Not really, because that is just how democracy works. Whether you think you made a wiser choice is actually irrelevant. Real democracy is about individual choice with little to no regard about other people's feelings. And that is a fact. So dont be upset and just live with the result.
@@mr.balawis9948
My point wasn't about being concerned about someone else's subjective thoughts / feelings. Making wise choices that impact our lives requires putting what's more important / relevant to the situation over what one feels about it.
Guy in a white shirt and blue surgical mask is making some good points, actually most of them are making good points. I hope the next president and government officials would listen to their people and help them.

"What do you think are the biggest social issues in the Philippines right now?"
It's the GOVERNMENT CORRUPTION. If there is no corruption the education, overpopulation, teenage pregnancies, poverty and even health issues, etc. here in the Philippines are not problem. CORRUPTION is the main issues here in the Philippines.
What do you think are the root causes for the existence of corruption in the government??
@@MrTask141 corrupt politicians that aren't being held accountable for the crimes they did. They don't fear stealing from us because we keep electing them even though they are already convicted of a crime.
@@redrouge8418 corrupt politicians don't appear out of nowhere. Just like you said, they are not afraid to do something bad. Yet what caused them to do this rather than the opposite? Do we really have to solely depend on the person's personality to have a good government??
@@MrTask141 the people are corrupt too and dont actually want to change
Some of the issues you listed here such as overpopulation and teenage pregnancies has nothing to do with government corruption but more related to the fact that the state and the church have no separation in the philippines. The catholic church has a huge say in policies especially when it comes reproductive health.
Those are smart common Filipinos. Thank you for interviewing them!
WE WANT PUBLIC SERVANTS WITH COMPETENCE AND CHARACTER! GO PH! PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭
Filipino people are the best in world . They are most warm hearted people. Love you from India
Love from india to all people Philippines, indonesia, vietnam
Hoping for this election, we get to see a President who's someone we could be proud of-literate, with good track record, and someone who has done enough even before and after entering politics.
🌷🌷🌷
Hope is useless without action. Vote wisely. Do your own deligent research and look past all the misinformation, disinformation, lies and false promises. Don't believe what you constantly see in social media. Use your intelligence wisely. If you do this Then hope will have a chance.
You are describing Isko.

Need a president that will address the Philippines problem of single mothers and absent fathers and why it's a never ending cycle of generational poverty, you don't see this big a problem in Taiwan, Indonesia ,Malaysia and Vietnam. plus a rich few own everything, a country needs more factory workers not street vendors selling produce on the street for a it to be successful
exactly. and all this is sponsored by the church and the corrupt elites.
hard to kick them out
Yep. The age of consent should be 18 years old, educate the youth(especially the poor) about sex education, and decriminalize abortion.
Because you use Christian idea in a poor countries lol
Idolizing Western Far Right Conservatism/Trumpism is the problem.
@@twt000 agreed. Trust me you guys know how to govern your nation. You know your own people and problem better. Never follow that western toxic political culture.

How is this unbiased when the opinion was only gathered in metro manila.
Manila only interview? Unbiased? Nakakatawa… Eh yong mas madaming problema nasa Mindanao, ang mas madaming corrupt nasa sentro, ang umaangat lang pero walang modo nasa sentro din
the boy with pink masked is biased. Hes basically a Kakampink lmao
As a Filipino, I don't support either candidate but I just hope whoever wins actually goes through w/ their promises
There are more than two candidates and Isko has the accomplishments to prove he's worthy of becoming President.
finally a filipino i can agree with :')
Isko for me.
I have no firm confidence on ANY of the candidates, so I also dont have any preferences during this election...
I just hope that, even if the country is going to a parading clown fiesta, it wont be as hurtful or mournful as the previous ones.
isko is not going to win, he was even up voted by manny pacquiao, ( in the unofficial tally). but i do believe in Leni as she's the most competent of them all, it's also shown in her track records. she's the running ovp & her teleconsult Bayanihan e-consulta program as one of her pandemic response, truly benefitted me when i was sick & was experiencing covid symptoms
When he mentioned "blind sided" i was like "yo i think you're one of them ngl"
Same ! That guy already have colors 😂
pinklawan po siya HAHAHA
@@marcosxxx842 halata nmn dun sa Pink na mask 😂😂😂
Antanga nga eh ejk lang daw ambag ni duterte tapos negative pa daw amp
It’s all a matter of perspective, the habit of calling everyone else “PeNkLaWAn”(even when they didn’t vote Leni) from the other camp is a sign that none of the folks there are exempt.
Filipinos critical thinking and critical decision is the most important to select the President who will lead the nation. Platform that answers the future of the nation and give solution to the worst system of society that people wants to expect and achieve. That's what we need to be our President. Hello Philippines ! Thanks and God bless 🙏🙏🙏
Thank u so much Asian Boss for having this topic, we Filipinos are praying for a peaceful election. I really appreciate the opinions of the people shared their views on politics on your interview. 👍👍👍
to be honest, this year's election is the most toxic since the day i start voting...
this is my fourth times to vote but i feel this is the most toxic one
people hate each other for the sake of their candidates, families and religion got seperated,
every one insult each other for their candidates, pride take them over...
Pride comes before the fall..or something like that
Though if youre not like them then just ignore them if possible

Most Filipinos are loyal or fanatics and will be biased for their idols (politicians). Choose whom will be more capable to handle the duties of higher position. Good education background, good track record and have a platform that will benefit all classes in the Philippines not just rich.
non-filipino don't even know how toxic and biased the media is. It's top roof level. All you can hear is hate the negative Champaigng is so bad
even the mainstream media itself is biased 🤦🏻
Bruh the media is literally bought. What I know is that if they start slandering to hell and back someone. That means they're scared of the potential that person can do. I know my Wag the Dog crap and how media and social media can instantly make a good person look bad and a bad person look good. I'm surprised not a lot of people can see that. Hence I stopped watching propaganda. 🙄
When it comes to these political issues it would be better if Asian Boss could interview people not just in Manila (or even beyond Luzon for the matter).
There’s a bigger population beyond that area and likely most of the views and opinions are mostly on the contrary.
Pero karamihan ng mga dayo rito ay mula sa vismin kaya kung tutuusin puro mga bisaya na rito at oonti nalang talaga ang taga luzon dito mismo diyo sa luzon dahil dito kayo lumilipat at naninirahan na at pansinin nyo walang taga luzon ang lumilipat sa vismin. It's always you from vismin who goes here.
@@hulshoop2668 good point, I guess Metro Manila/Luzon has more of a mix of the country and not so much the other way around in cites around VisMin
If you know Asian Boss, they barely survived during the pandemic. They had to let go of some of their people. Resources are important. You can volunteer instead without pay so you can cover interviews outside Manila.
@@_WhiteW0lf_ yep, the international volunteers are mainly the ones doing the interviews... They arent really directly hired by AsianBoss, but still precious resources.
It would be expensive to jump from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao just to gather interviews. Since Metro Manila is a melting pot with people coming from the provinces, interviews are held there. Am I right, Asian Boss?
To all Foreigners watching: The interview is only occuring in Manila.. So please, don't generalize that this is the different thinking of Filipinos in regards related to election..
There are lots of provinces, ethnic backgrounds and age gaps that have different views. Also Manila have internal disagreement with other provinces and vice versa.. Also people from different province views the running candidates in a different light, like Leyte and Ilocos, also Mindanao.. We have a lot of internal strifes that whether the results of election may be... It is the majority of what the Filipinos feel
Yeah they should do interviews in Calabarzon too, they're just as reasonable.
@@yumeriamoegi I agree, also from Mindanao...
@@yachishairclips2250 I mean my comment to support pink btw. I know in Mindanao most of them are red/green so...
@@yumeriamoegi So you're bias too? okay

Education is the highest budgeted sector in the Philippines, that's mandatory based on the provision of the 1987 Constitution. Uso talaga yung research char 😂
This interview is eye opener to all of us who is gonna right to vote for. We should always be open our minds and hearts to the others political opinions.
Filipinos are smart not dumb. Just trust them.
Hayy... Sad seeing this after the election. 😅
Me when I lie
The election will officially take place on a Monday. In all honesty, it’s gonna be the most nerve-wracking yet exciting day for all Filipino citizens. Whoever will be the next president of the Philippines shall get to carry on the duties and responsibilities of a national leader. It kinda feels like yesterday when all those presidential candidates were crazy with all the campaigning left and right. I’m also relieved that the whole election campaign thing will finally be put to an end. To all voters, I wish y’all the best of luck. I may or might get thrown a lot of excessive hate, but I won’t be voting this election period. That being said, the Philippines might be infamous for its poverty and corruption and possibly overpopulation, but that doesn’t mean it can’t gradually transform into a much more extraordinary nation. May the next president win the favor of many!
5:00 best comment so far. politician and actor/actress is almost same kase they are a public figures, pero role ng actor/actress and politician is vastly different.

As long as Presidential/Gubernatorial/Strong Mayor-Council System will not be replaced with Parliamentary/Council-Manager System, politics in the Philippines will remain toxic and hopeless

Love these series where local people express their views!
Regular folks telling truth, albeit from their own perspectives. What I found common is the desire for education and change.
Mainstream media will always have a big impact to the Filipinos. If the citizens trust them, they will believe them, but once the trust lost, no matter what they say, whether it's true or not, people will stop believing them. And I agree that the media is too bias and too focus on two candidates, which ended with our situation now. Citizens started to think that they only have two choices (and always the same controversy), when in fact, there's more (and unfortunately majority of the Filipinos doesn't even know the other candidates names).
Filipinos already lost trust in mainstream media, especially ABS-CBN and Western media like CNN, FOX, ABC, etc as they all do nothing but criticize the Duterte government.
Unfortunately this is becoming a problem in a lot of democratic countries as they slowly start to resemble the US' awful two-party duopoly
Agree ako kay tatay! Sobrang bias ang media. Dapat neutral lang ang media if they want people to believe them.
Yess and the media should side with the truth
@@abivibiiii9797 But... Truth will not generate money... Scandals and Drama does...

Please imagine being on their shoes and without due process, you’re just being accused of something you didn’t do and its hard to argue because people won’t believe you.

Idc if the reds or the pinks won the election, I just want the next leader to do his/her best for our country and not for their self interest.
Well, we can see already who's the good one, who has a clean track record, good credentials, a lawyer, an economist, and who have done a lot of things for the Filipinos. The other one is just running for president just because his mom wants to, and for their self-interest.

I think another (lesser) issue that isn’t addressed here is the fact that many Filipinos are sexist at best and misogynistic at worst. Even women oppress other women and think lowly of themselves that we willingly allow the same “type” of politicians and their family members, enter into the realm of politics.
its not, whether woman or man.. its always competency .. we elected two women in a presidency both did not make a good job.. this already a evidence that we dont care about gender vs other countries like U.S did not elect a woman
Thanks for this, Asian Boss!
misinformation is a big thing that already conditioned the minds of a lot of Filipinos
Tbh I lost hope about the politics in the country. No matter whose candidate it is all I see is people who wants to be in power and have their own personal interest. It feels like a pick your poison scenario.

there are really lots of things that needs to be addressed in my country Philippines. the list goes endless. the election is already done (today is May 19,2022), whether we like the results or not, we have to live with it and keep on hoping that our country veers and steers towards progress. let's all keep crossing our fingers that in 6 years term of the new president, he can accomplish a lot.
such an insightful video with well-spoken participants! thank you so much for interviewing them.
I'm hoping that the next President will continue the fight against drug trafficking in our country, and to punish them that are responsible.
To continue the building progress of the roads and infrastructures. To strengthen the security and defense of our country against China's territorial threats. A greater management and support for the local farmers. To prevent further illegal land grabbing by the wealthy.
To promote a better health programs for the poor and middle class.
To promote an equal hiring opportunity for all Filipinos.
And end all conflicts by bringing all guerrillas and other militias back into our society.
I'm afraid the problem on illegal drugs specifically shabu might not get prioritized by the next administration since i haven't heard anyone of the presidential candidates speaking of continuing the good improvements of peace and order brought by diminishing the problems of selling and using shabu
There are a lot more problems in our country than just selling drugs. Selling drugs is just an effect of a bigger problem. You won't get rid of it if you won't change the essentials.We need total reform in education, healthcare, employment, and rehabilitation centers. If a president can focus on reforming the essentials, selling drugs will gradually diminish.
@@georgiebennett3336 unfortunately those things that you mentioned are just an old tunes and were being promised to solved by gazillions of politicians. I am a realest, just peace and order will do for me at the moment.
@@asmirkfrequency777 Realist? Name me one country that solved its already present drug problem through a War on Drugs? Mexico? Failed. US? Failed. Pretty much every Latin American country that has this problem? Failed. And I'm just talking about the countries that openly declared war on drugs in their respective countries. It only led to more death, more destruction, more corruption.
Paolo Duterte relieved of drug charges based on hearsay but Leila de Lima whose accusations could also be attested to hearsay is still a prisoner? Galing. Those governments that tried to wage "war" against their drug problem often are connected to the drugs themselves. And that's a fact. Wag sana ma-offend.

Those are already been done though...
Education reform - Free Tertiary Education

Employment - PSA Amendments
Rehabilitation Centers - Done but too far away
Yes, one of the things I constantly think is that issue. I just hope that kung sino man ang susunod na presidente ay ma aaddress pa rin nila ang illegal drugs pati na rin ang krimen. Sana’y maging determinado pa rin sila na sugpuin ang mga gumagamit, nagbebenta ng illegal drugs at sa mga gumagawa ng krimen, para hindi na ito maging rampant ulit in the next 6 years.
God speed to the Philippines during this very important election. 🍺🙂
I just hope that country will improve itself from its problems like corruption and poverty no matter who president will win. There's so many things the country has to fix for its people. Even if it might be hard, there should be improvements.
If only leaders that talk about the "war on drugs" could take their fight to drug cartels themselves, rather than their victims
Without people buying the drugs the cartel itself would die off. You cannot destroy the supplier without destroying the demand.

I didn’t watch the news about the election nor scrolled through social medias, so the toxicity of this election was news to me. Although I saw some memes that my friends shared I never really read comments, because I know that it will be full of nonsense, but I didn’t expect that it would be very serious that people would even threaten to kill and rape. I know it was trashtalks, but men, those people should be taught a lesson. Just because they’re on the internet they think they are held unaccountable for their words.
Thank you Asian Boss. Wonderful interviews
In 1986, the authoritarian dictatorship was replaced by liberal democratic republic.
However, the new liberal government was inefficient, ineffective and elitist.
The standards of living of the people did not improve, despite what was promised by the liberals.
This drove the people to a point of desperation to vote for authoritarian brutes.
This is wrong! You don't understand the situation at that time. You can't expect magic after the peaceful revolution. You need to understand that there's a need for transition and it was not easy.
The Philippines at that time is under heavy debt from the World Bank due to the previous administration's corruption. There was a moratorium from the WB to pay and restructure debts. How can the Aquino government at that time be able to develop the country and pay obligations when there was no money? You need to sell some of the government assets that are difficult to maintain and you need to borrow again from the World Bank to continue to fund the basic services for the people and pay the government's obligations.
Unfortunately, borrowing again from WB could mean more conditions. In short, at that time the country is under a "debt trap" brought by the previous administration of Ferdi Marcos. Also, the regime of Cory Aquino suffered two coup attempts that made the country unattractive to foreign investors.
It was only during the time of Ramos that the economy stabilized and slowly improve. The Philippines was then called the "Tiger Cub of Asia". Unfortunately, that did not sustain as well when it was hit by Global Financial Crisis. Not only the Philippines suffer but many Asian countries as well.
Then, it was followed by the regime of Gloria Arroyo which is more colorful and controversial. GMA's party is PDP-Laban which is also the party of President Duterte. Now, why do you blame those leaders when they're not all coming from the same party?
LOUDER! We cannot blame some people who chooses to vote for the son's dictator because the politicians that were behind the EDSA Revolution, who also promised the filipino people a good life, which isn't evident in this time. Our democracy in today's time is EXCLUSIVELY for the elite.
Your comment has a point; many, and I mean MANY, just dont care about the things like injustices, not only because they arent directly affected, but a handful receives benefits from them, even the common folk....
As long as there is a direction provided for their nation, many just wont care, being mindful of their own lives...
But there are paths that just needs maintenance sometimes....
@@xiuxoio Well, if you think that BBM is the right guy for you, then, it is up to your conscience. No politician is perfect anyway. But, let me try to correct some things.
The goal of Edsa is not to give a good life to all Filipino people. That's impossible! A good life is a result of your hard work and sometimes, luck. Not that someone is going to give that to you. The goal of Edsa is to topple the dictatorship and bring back democracy to the people without external restraint or threat.
The second goal is to lessen the effect of inflation which is brought by corruption, high foreign debt, and economic instability. The famous slogan of Cory Aquino at that time during her campaign was, "Mahal na presyo ng galunggong", "Tama na, sobra na!". In her slogan, you can sense that she wants to save the poor from bearing all the hardships brought by the high inflation. "Galunggong" or "blue mackerel scud" at that time was the only cheap fish that can be afforded by the poor. So, she never promised about good life but hoped for everyone to have a better country and tomorrow.
A good life for everyone is every individual's dream and this can only be achieved when the country and the people work together for the common good and to make a difference. Unfortunately, this may probably not happen anymore, for a lot of Filipinos nowadays become more fanatics of iconic people and idols rather than loving the country. I just hope that the President you voted for could make a dramatic change in your country.

When most people think of The Philippines, the first thing that comes to mind is poverty, corruption, and lack of development in almost all areas outside the major centres. The brain drain is a big issue, where the best and brightest professionals leave the country as soon as they can for a better life and take their talents somewhere else. Are the best candidates that can be brought forward to run a country of over 100 million people, boxers, celebrities and the son of a former dictator ?
Feeling sad for The Philippines, a country with so much potential, that will most likely continue being the poor man of Asia.
The country will continue on its current path of poverty and corruption. Even if a president that is elected is not corrupt, there are plenty more corrupt politicians, judges, the military and the police that will prevent the country's economic and social progress. It's your ordinary Filipino that is the most corrupt. They willingly sell their votes every election and then complain that they stay poor because of corruption. They rationalize their wrong doings all the time. So this is a vicious cycle that will be hard to break and the Philippines will continue to be the poor man of Asia.
Its because after EDSA revolution there was no change. We were promised of a better future, yet we were disappointed. Terrorists, drugs,rebels were so rampant after 1986.. tragedies were not properly responded especially during typhoon Haiyan. It was during President Duterte's time where we can freely go outside at night without having fears of being attacked by drug addicts or communist rebels in the countryside. We have freedom of information, but sometimes some mainstream media focused more on negative documentaries about the Philippines rather than the good side of the country. That is why foreigners mostly heard about our country as poor, dirty, chaos when in fact there is more good things to see here in the Philippines. Now, most of our provinces are almost free from communist rebels unlike before. So people nowadays don't easily believed the mainstream media, because they can also be a source of disinformation especially if they are against the leader/politician. Now I can see progress here in our province, with more employment opportunities rather than going to manila, it's because of increase in investors who are not anymore afraid of communist rebels being harrased just to pay revolutionary tax.
When I think of the Philippines as an outsider, I don't think of any of those terms you named.
That's why we're not already doing that again, we're legislating actual economic reforms, spending in infrastructure, bolstering our R&D and Innovation, boostering our manufacturing and agriculture sector, attracting more FDI Net Inflows, and creating more jobs within the private sector, within the Duterte administration, because the people are fed up continuing such system.
We're already reaping the rewards from this, poverty rate went down from 26% in 2015, to 21% in 2018, FDI Net Inflows peaked in 2017 and 2021, our semiconductor manufacturing industry has been growing 10% year-on-year since 2017, there are ADB and IMF trajectories that we could surpass other country's economies, like Thailand, if we keep this momentum. That's why we need to sustain legislative momentum on reforms, and the Liberal Party and Leni won't be the harbinger to it, because they're center-left and only focused on subsidies, than actual systematic reforms, it would be the Libertarian Right of PH Politics, such as PDP-Laban and figures like Duterte.
@@bingblingsalazar419 Freedom of information? Tell that to ABS-CBN
also Duterte leaves us 4.9% inflation rate 💀
Bruh that inflation is heavily caused by external factors, not just internal. U know war in Europe, pandemic??? Even if other Admin is in the presidency this will still happen. Only if this global crisis didn't exist I'm pretty sure the inflation is not like this..
Thank fuel prices as we import fuel
Ang the US 8% inflation rate buti nga mas mababa sa ating hahaha.
Not only the Philippines, look at some countries too. And know the reason why there's an increase in inflation this is globally and no one wants it too.
how about going to other parts of the Philippines. they are all just speaking filipino (TAGALOG) which means they are from mostly likely from metro manila.. THIS IS NOT, I tell you! Not the majority!
I think the high voter turn-out is also cause of vote-buying. I've heard it can range between 1,000-6,000 PHP (roughly $20-$300) depending on the province, but can be as little as 500PHP ($10) in the more populous cities.
rampant na ang vote buying dati pa.. mas matalino lang ang mga tao(sa lugar namin) ngayon kasi tinatanggap nila ang pera pero binoboto nila kung sino talaga ang gusto nila
Oh maybe you heard was purely a gossip because here in our entire city, I never experienced even a single cent given by a political candidate especially those who are running for a national elections. And I'm not a 1st time voter!
Vote-buying exists even long time ago, this is not new and almost all politicians use this tactic....
It is a factor but not the total reason for high voter turn out, this strategy only works for undecided people and people with little knowledge of all candidates running..
People are smarter these days... They accept the money but still voted for whom they liked..
This is misleading. This is what other judiciary peeps are against. The argument from "an anonymous source told me" used as evidence when making an accusation.
This is hallow. We know vote-buying is rampant, but we have to have a nationwide study or survey if every city or municipality experience such.
This is true. I am one of those living in the province where one candidate gives 3,600 PHP and the other candidate (incumbent) gives 1,200 PHP. There are some people who are smart enough to accept both money and vote the candidate they truly want, but there are some people (I PERSONALLY know those people) who will vote for the candidate that gave them the bigger money.
Remember, a candidate for a Congressman may need more than 100k votes in a big city to win, but a candidate running in a province may only need ~50k votes or less to win. That's why the candidates from small provinces can afford those outrageous amounts of money to buy a vote.
direct to the question....I think this is the time to exercise your right to suffrage to see who will continue and improve our nation as a whole..and have a unity to the leaders who will lead us..
Let us respect whoever wins and let us work hand in hand for the betterment of our children's future. God bless the Philippines! 🙏

@@Bryane430 Thank you, Bryane. This helps.
Unlike the US, Government positions in the Philippines from top to bottom are decided by popularity vote.
The biggest problem in the Philippines is corruption. It's ingrained into Filipino society that I doubt they will ever get rid of corruption because most people are either nonchalant or complacent toward it. And those who do point it out end up getting punished.
For real~~~ even tho our Government priorities the Education in our country over other sectors, still the level of our learners keeps dropping each year. imo..

In my province money works as a factor who wins, especially people are not well educated about how politics work. Since I was a child the seat of our governor still doesn't change the same family is still holding it until the latest election results because they have the money to pay the people to vote for them.
We must get rid of them to be honest.
The fact that the boy in the pink mask speaks so furious about Bongbong Marcos clearly opposed him.
I think Peru don't will be better with a president that listens to the people I peru and helping them with them struggles and solves other problems.
They are looking into the past, feeling nostalgic but can you really blame them? More than 30 years after the fall of Ferdinand Marcos, the many successive goverments have failed to improve their living. their biggest "commodity" is still workers, barely improvement on infrastructure, and pagpag is still a thing.
I think it's about time the Filipino people realize that their attitude also needs to change. It seems there's no saving them from poverty no matter which politician they put in power.
We need a leader that to develop our economy and we need also a leader that have a long experience in public service.

To an extent, I agree. But it falls apart when the government itself will make you an outlaw and punish you for taking the initiative when they fail. And the politicians here do it a lot, I’ve seen volunteers go missing just because they weren’t voting for someone else and a mayor try to cut the power of a rally that threatened to do his job better. Filipinos are industrious, but it means nothing when they are punished for trying to succeed at all.

Most are voting for Bongbong Marcos and Leni Robredo (these is what one of the interviewee meant when he/she said the media only focused on 2 presidential candidates). Isko Moreno, Ping Lacson, and Manny Pacquiao are also among those who have significant number of voters for the presidential race.
