  • This truly happened!
    The questions raised by the Lucy Lui look-alike were as follows:
    Where are the jeepney stops? How do you get on a jeepney? How do you get off a jeepney? How do you know in which direction is the jeepney going? East or west? How does one know how much the fare will be? If the driver collects then who drives while he collects? How does he keep track of who gets on and who gets off? What if you don't pay? Why do Filipino inside a jeepney sit so close to each other? Do they KNOW each other?
    Yes, they do! In fact not only do they KNOW each other, they LOVE each other!

    I remember one time I went to New York, I just had this gut feeling telling me to scream/shout and so I said, "Kapwa Kabayan!" (Fellow Countrymen!" and out of nowhere several heads turned towards me and they raise their fist before saying, "Mabuhay!!" Just so you know, those people were total strangers to one another. And well, because of what I did, it actually brought us together like we're a bunch of old friends having a reunion. This happened 8 years ago and it was hilarious!

    Am just remember my flight back to the Philippines from Hongkong. I'm in the middle sit in business class. My left side is Filipino guy and in my right side is American guy. We didn't Know each other. But when a Filipino guy try to talk to me in Tagalog, we started chatting and laughing as if we're close relative. And the American guy in my right who's tring to sleep was Disturbed. Then he asked me if we've known each other and I said no, Just now. That time, he start chatting us. And told us why he is coming to Philippines. He said that it's his first time, but because his wife who happened to be Filipina, he has to know the country. Although he is not confident of going alone.

    my guess why filipinos know each other is because maybe we think we are a minority. so we always have this thought/principle which is "the only person that can help you besides yourself is your neighbor". it's all about being neighbors that we know each other. i may not know you, but if my neighbor knows you, then i know you, too, maybe not personally but i trust my neighbor, so, then i know you. 😁

    I am here in the US and whenever I meet Filipinos around I greet them Kabayan :) I will never ever forget where I came from. I cried when I was taking the oath of US citizenship. I feel like I was betraying my country when I did that. I really choked up. Others may mistake it as some kind of happiness being a US citizen, but no. Even if I took that oath, deep inside me I will still be a Filipino. I am staying here only until my husband dies and my son will be grown and be able to take care of himself. Hopefully, introducing him to our culture will make him change his mind and decide to stay in PI as well. I am praying for that. Most of all, I want to come back so I can help other Filipinos in their poverty. Somehow, someway I will be able to do that.

      Who am I to judge how you feel,
      You know better amongst us what/how you judge your act regardless of emotion.
      When I was young, everytime I see white(westeners) person, my impression to them is they are above me in everything., and when I turned 23, i went in middle east to work w/o educational degree & experience(9th grader), I just bring myself w/ bravery&sense of respect, after 6 yrs, my friend told me to apply in Canada, same thought, I will just bring the same person there but I doubt to make it,
      Then Canadian embassy in Riyadh sent an email to provide my transcript & it should at least 21units, at that moment, I turned it down and told my friend that I will not meet the requirements even I can find ways for financial with this application.
      Then I went back In the Philippines, my sister told me I have to try in USA, I said no, I will not even think of that because of 1 pc of requirement, but still she beg me to try so we can have a better life, I told her ok I'll try it but I'll never expect, I went to US embassy in manila and failed the last round of the interview, I saw most of there are eager to go in that country a lot of them are begging and crying just to have a visa, but not me, when the last interviewer told me that I wasn't eligible with it, I said well that's fine, can I have my passport and left the building.
      Then this old man pop out saying you(filipinos) should be proud to be one, should be a patriotic, should have dignity, should have pride though lot of you doesn't have a choice but to work overseas for the meantime, I'll do my best to lift up our nation.
      Dyan ko naramdaman na tama ako na karamihan sa atin ay my inferiority complex towards westeners.
      Masaya ako na may pangulong tulad ni duterte,
      Kaya last time sa smart office s my SM merong kano na sunod sa pila ko para kumuha ng ticket at sinabi nya na dalian ko, lumingon ako sa kanya tinignan ko lang cya from foot to head then down to his foot again w/o any word. That moment dun ako nakaramdam ng inis sa puti, dun ko naalala yung pagpunta ko sa us embassy.

    I was skeptical, do we really _know_ each other? But then, it is true, in a sense, that the Filipino's camaraderie as a nation is so powerful. Sometimes scarcity do cloud us, otherwise, we treat each other as family. How we see our neighbors' house as our own and ours, them; how OFWs meeting for the first time yet, it looks like they've known each other for long; how we empathize with victims reported on tv; how we pitch in singers/artists to every single youtube reactor; how we crushed internet/text polls to support beauty queens; how we raise views of international talent shows to support full, half-, 1/4, tad-blood Filipino contestants; how everyone, in one mind, watch in anticipation of a win of a boxing pride; how people come together in non-violence, disregarding their own safety, for democracy. All for one, one for all. Now that's family.

    ha ha ha strangest community - yeah, we don't know each other - but I had an experience when we went to Korea with my sister last May without any tour guide just an address - we met a Filipino family at the airport going to Jeonum Province and we went with them. When we met their relative, they introduced us and we asked the direction going to Naju City. She brought us in the ticket booth and paid our transportation and directed us in the bus. You see we just met and as if we knew each other ha ha ha. Thanks for that person.

      What's nice and happy is, when in another country, a kababayan you chanced upon always have that warm smile and ready eagerness to help out when you are lost or confused... although total strangers, they feel like 'family'. Thanks God for the close knit family culture of the Philippines that we still enjoy beyond our shores.

  • @darthbiker2311
    @darthbiker2311 6 років тому +157

    It's funny and a bit sad. When Filipinos meet each other overseas, it's all heartwarming and glad smiles to be with a kabayan in a foreign land. But when we get home, the labels that kept us divided - wealth, social status, regionalism, religion, even race - all kick in. Metro Manilans feel superior, Cebuanos despise the "taga-Luzon" in general, everybody hates Chinoys because they're rich and refuse to "integrate," Indians are perceived as loan sharks, Africans don't get the same treatment as Caucasians (and recently, Koreans), the Iglesia ni Kristo are seen as a religious mafia of sorts, Muslims are believed to adhere to some passage in the Quran that says they can take advantage of Christians without consequence... Sure, there's largely no pain or suffering as a direct consequence, but these divisions (to be fair, some may be justified) have kept important legislation from being enacted and have held back policies that should have moved the country forwards.

    • @rdc1431
      @rdc1431 6 років тому +25

      I learned at a young age to respect people of all ages; whatever their status in life was. I learned that the hard way. We had a "katulong" in our house when I was 12 years old and did not really appreciate how she made our life better by doing everything for us. But, by its very word and meaning, "katulong" means somebody helping you out. Not a slave. When we had to move house from the province to the city, I had to do EVERYTHING. Clean the small house we moved into, go to the market with my mother, help my mother out in preparing the meals, IRON my own clothes (I hated that the most out of all the household chores I had to do :), and do my own LAUNDRY. Then, I remembered how tirelessly she worked by herself when most of us just do nothing. My mom helps her out though. But not me. I did not have the opportunity to say sorry to her and thank her for helping us (even though she gets paid to do it) when we got back to visit my grandmother in the province and that really made me sad. From then on I resolved to give respect to people who have jobs that others may think is too lowly. I thank them wherever I may find them: in the CR's working to clean it for us to use, the man or woman sweeping the streets for us to traverse without stumbling over trash that PEOPLE throw haphazardly (litterbugs), greeting the guards, salespeople, and vendors. Bottomline: RESPECT ALL PEOPLE WHATEVER THEIR STATUS IN LIFE.

Since I didn't have any furniture, they gave me all their their old furniture and everything that I didn't need to buy anything for the apartment except for food. Several years after I got settled in, I made friends with another Filipino who was going thru some hard times and I allowed him to move in with me while he was looking for another job and another place to stay.

    what you said is 100% true. we do know each other. i was in hong kong last month and i got lost going to stanley, what i did was to look around, spot a filipino, and viola, i have a "sister" who took me to the bus station, gave me the right instructions as to where i should get off and i reached stanley. going back to the hotel, i did the same thing.

    That's really true but so your so funny while saying it hahaha me I like to commute in Jeepney it's cheaper 7 pesos coins only then you can go farther not like taxi it's more costly but inside Jeepney a lot Filipinos do chitchat immediately to Filipino they just meet become instant friends then help each other to pass the coins to the driver... How we know the destination we use our Filipino instincts its like even we fall asleep in Jeepney automatically wake up if it feels like got to right destination then use the coin knock the small metal tube above so the driver will know it's like signal . Here in some parts of Mindanao many people inside the Jeepney use the coin to make a noise so the driver will automatically stop Hahahahaha

    THIS IS MY TESTIMONY OF HOW GOD HAS SAVED ME FROM THESE EVIL PEOPLE AND SPIRITS WHO CONTROL THIS WICKED WORLD.
    HOW THEY DECEIVE, IS THE SAME METHOD ON HOW THEY PERSECUTE. THEY HIDE THAT BY CALLING MENTAL ILLNESSES RATHER THAT MENTAL (SPIRITUAL) PERSECUTION. WE ARE IN ARMAGEDDON, WHICH IS MENTAL BATTLE.
    The Holy Bible is God's words. God reveals His words through His servants the prophets. The prophets who wrote the Holy Bible and saw visions were inspired by the power of the Holy Spirit. The works of the Holy Spirit will bring your mind to the Holy Bible, convict that you are a sinner and need a Savior and most of all does not pretend, lies and force you to do things. God created us with freedom. Most of the people in our society today are being control by these evil spirits (counterfeit holy spirits) through this mind control game. The counterfeit holy spirits will dictate your mind outside the Holy Bible, giving you thoughts that is not in harmony with God's word and can manipulate human thoughts and feelings to do satan's will. Beware that this counterfeit holy spirit uses both some truths and errors when they tempt you to do something. It is very important that you pray to Our Lord Jesus Christ without ceasing to protect your mind from these counterfeit holy spirits that can give you thoughts of doubts and confusion and the spirit of fear. Only through the words of God, prayers and the power of the Holy Spirit we can defeat these evil spirits, demons, and devils's temptation, not in our own strength. Make sure that everything you do, you are edifying God not yourself. Think about God and His words wherever you are - that is praying without ceasing and do not depend on human protection but solely depend on God and His Holy Angels through His words in Holy Bible. The only weapons we have against these supernatural powers are God's word. No demon-possessed persons nor evil spirits would succeed when they tempt you and attack your mind through this hypnosis or mind control that satan and his fallen angels use to harass, abuse and scare God's people and then call "mentally ill". Always remember God's people do not involve in this mind control game. They are innocent in these tactics that satan uses to scare innocent person and then put in the hospital and called this so-called "mentally ill" or even called you this so-called "terrorist" if you do not obey this secret system that are in our society. My brother and sister were victims of these demonic harassment and abused and killed afterwards. The worst part was, satan had used my own family to achieve their goals. My own sister was raped by my own father who is a demon-possessed. I myself was also a victim of these demonic harassment that is in our society today. I was harassed by almost every person i have encountered whether at work or in the street and even in my own place including my friends. But i ignored what i heard and seen from them and other mediums that satan uses to control my thoughts and feelings to harass and abuse me. In 2011, as i was watching video in my computer, the demons used the program that i was watching as they often do to communicate with me, harassed and called me terrorist and all sorts of things to scare me. As i stand up from the couch to ignore them again, all of the sudden i fell on the floor and i felt someone holding my head to protect me as my body was touching the floor and heard worried voices like "oohhh!". God already protecting me against these supernatural powers in high places or demons at that time without my knowledge. I knew that was the work of the evil spirit why i was almost passed out. So i went out from my apartment, got outside went to one of my friend's house nearby but he did not open the door for me so i just stayed outside to pass the time pretending like i was not afraid, for i know at that time that was satan's primary objective to scare me. While i was outside i tried to buy something at the store, but the guy in the store did not sell anything to me and did not even look at my face, so i decided not to question him because i knew his being controlled by these evil spirits. I stayed outside for about 40 minutes and i remembered that my wife was in the room, and i started to worry about what these demons would do to her. I decided to go back to my place and checked if she was okay. As i opened the door, i saw her in the living room and told me that she was feeling dizzy and I notice she was slurred in speech. So i knew at that time the reasons why she felt sick because of these demons controlling her mind, but i was not fully aware at that time that my wife is also a demon-possessed like my family. So, i put her back in the room and worried about her situation more than mine. Thinking what to do, i decided to open my mouth and talked to these evil spirits for i know they are listening and watching and waiting for you to make mistakes in the words that you speak and not being consistent of what you are saying. So, i told them that you can take me and do whatever you want, just do not hurt my wife. After i said that, i pretended to hurt my wife to create a scene just to get their attentions and reasons to get me. After a while the police officers came to my place without anybody physically called them on the phone and handcuffed me. That means satan is controlling the mind of these police officers, i knew they will come and arrested me, not because i replied of what they have done to me or did something wrong to anyone, but because of every time i step outside they threaten me not only the police but by almost everyone. I was thinking that they will bring me to some kind of special investigation knowing during that time, the evil spirits were using the media (t.v., internet, radio, etc.) and people as a medium to communicate and harassed me and called me a "terrorist" and all sorts of things.

    Great speech! I agree with this observation. Filipinos form a bond of sorts. Once we were in an airport lounge in Schiphol and the duty manager was a Filipina. When she saw our group she brought an entire cart of snacks for us!
    I also experienced something similar aboard a cruise ship with my friend’s family. We got treated to all the Filipino dishes during meal times. They were so happy to see their kabayans on board.
    And this is why I encourage my friends to teach their kids and grandkids how to speak Tagalog. It is the key that unlocks this privilege club.

      The whole thing roots from our ancient past where these beautiful islands nourished us abundantly. We did not have to grab, scam, or hoard stuff. We shared, cared for, and respected each other.
      We still, consciously and unconsciously, live out values like 'kapwa tao', and 'bayanihan.'
      I am not a native, but I have learned through osmosis:)
