    I am in UAE and have seen so many Philipino People here. Out of curiosity I explore few article about them and it was saying they are very very good in hospitality. They are very soft spoken, humble people. After 10 hr and sometimes 12 hr of work at shopping center, i could not find a single mark of stress on their face. I do have too much love and respect to Philipino friends.

      "After 10 hr and sometimes 12 hr of work at shopping center, i could not find a single mark of stress on their face." They have no choice! They are not superhuman. They desperately need jobs to support their families back home. If they demand shorter hours or better pay, they'd be sent back home in the next plane! There's always someone from The Philippines, Bangladesh, Pakistan or india to take their place.

      Grateful for what exactly? Europeans, Chinese, Japanese and so on, would have already built entire towns if they had to live like those people, no matter how poor they are... I don't feel sad or sorry for these people. They have SO MANY resources there, with hard work and time, they could build entire civilization and town... Back in 2013 or 2014, in Japan 3 whole towns were completely flattened with ground, there was not a single building left standing for hundreds of miles, the whole thing looked like a movie, there were over a 100,000 buildings destroyed - BUT GUESS WHAT?! - all the people there, over 95,000 people, including over 20,000 people from other towns around, got together and IN JUST TWO YEARS, they completely cleared out hundreds of miles of ground to build new foundations for new buildings and houses and by the end of 2017, in just 3-4 years, they have completely rebuilt over 98,000 buildings and homes, roads, walkways, stores and so on and so forth... ALL from nothing! Yeah... Same story with earthquakes and other natural disasters that happened over the past 400 years in China, Japan, Greece, Italy, Spain, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia and many, many other countries... Back when there was no media, internet or outside help... All these countries, all these different people rebuilt ENTIRE CITIES AND CIVILIZATIONS down from quite literally nothing!
      Meanwhile you have people like these in Philippines, India or Africa... Watching these people is like watching those people in Africa, sitting on so many resources they could easily build entire towns, entire civilizations... And yet they live worse than Europeans did during bronze age in 3,000 BC and are waiting for someone else (usually Europeans) to help them because they are too lazy and too stupid to help themselves.

    Historically there has always been communities living on the water in the Philippines for centuries. Before, such villages were made entirely of bamboo, but in modern times scraps of plastic,metal , plywood, concrete, and other modern man-made materials make up the construction giving the ambience that of a discord of architecture and a look of poverty. Here is a close thriving , caring community, no one looks starved and no one looks miserable or unhealthy . It is a simple fishing life of families of friends and colleagues. Wealth and hapiness is a very relative thing. Something the West cannot understand.

      its not insane at all.... luxuries dont buy happiness... not when you have no family.. no community.. no healthy relationships or human connections. plus they are stressed working shitty jobs behind a computer all day 5 days a week...
      everyone is brain washed into working making money and spending it and buying things that dont actually make them happy..... They don't know how to live in the moment and enjoy the things that do matter.

BTW, Philippines is now a newly industrialized country along with Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Mexico, Brazil, India, South Africa, and more. The Philippines became an Industrialized country two years ago, went from a developing country. Even first world countries like USA in L.A. CA, Seattle, Pennsylvania, Chicago, Canada, England, in Europe, Germany, Spain, Italy and many more share the same poverty situation. Here in the US it's worse, hundreds of homeless live in hundreds of tents and lack of sanitation, under the bridge, bushes, with many beggars and addicts, mentally disabled you name it. In the Philippines it's just poverty nothing similar to what I've mentioned and they live in slam areas like squatters at least not in tents without electricity.
      The Philippines' build3 program started by former Pres, Duterte is still on going. The Subway underground transportation ( costing at $4.5B )in metro Manila will be opened to the public in the year 2028 only soft opening and the new International airport in Bulacan of which the completion date is 2025 is much bigger than NAIA. The skyway is done (overhead freeways) Those poor countries I've mentioned don't have Underground transportation, etc. etc.
      The reclamation project in which a new city will be built soon across the Manila Bay Area is a very expensive project and monorail will also be built near BGC, Eastwood City and Alabang near Taguig. WOW Philippines, it's gonna be something big to look froward! I could hardly wait to visit again.

      Yes you are right, even though they are slam dwellers, but they are into high tech, like computer, TVs, cellphones, etc. The slam dwellers are not really from Manila they come from different provinces in Luzon, some of them are farmers, they have homes and lands, but probably got bored of living in the province so they tried their luck in the big city hoping to find jobs, but ended up living in the slam as they cant afford the high rent of apartments in Manila. They are very resourceful, they sell all kinds of recycling items they could find in commercial dumpsters and garbage cans, this is according to what I've watched in videos or UA-cams. They also buy leftovers from restaurants and recook them to sell. I've read this in the Philippine TV news.

      Sadly, poverty is widespread throughout the country. One minute you're walking around in a modern, well-kept neighborhood, and the next you're in a slum, surrounded by poverty. As a Filipino, I don't suggest the Philippines for tourism. Before anything else, things must improve.

    The sad thing about poverty in the Philippines. You ask each family in a poverty area on how many children do they have. You will notice on each family. They do have more children compared to a middle well off family. My point is. Poor people should control having more children as they knew to themselves that life is hard and so not to pass on poverty to their children. JMHO....

      Making babies is the most pleasurable thing anyone can do in life. Yet, you want to take this away from them, strip them of their one free pleasure in life. It's a religious and cultural issue, not one due to lack of money and poverty. Obtaining birth control is not something that is all that easy in the Philippines. Something as simple as a condom can only be found in certain stores. And the negative stigma of using one runs deep in their culture.

      I grew up and used to reside in Malate, which is next to Ermita, and the poverty level was nothing like as awful as it appears in the film. I have since left the nation and moved abroad. Things haven't improved at all and appear to have gotten worse. Dilapidated buildings and roads in disrepair, with waste strewn around. And to think that Ermita was once a popular tourist destination (particularly for Australians) due to its pubs and nightclubs.

    People complaining about the video, but this is the harsh reality of the Philippines. The poverty there is atrocious worse than any other south Asian country. There are good and bad things about the Philippines . Maybe the Philippines Government officials should be cleaning up the rubbish off the streets and helping homeless families , instead of having lavish parties at their mansions.

    Because the government cannot just evict them, some residents have stayed here for generations. They have become eligible voters. Local politicians bring them by the bus load for voter registrations. One resident told me she knew the politicians are corrupt but they give the residents assistance during elections and she will still vote for them.
