It took our team in the Philippines over 5 hours to get 10 people for this street interview. And out of those 10 people, 4 were in favor of legalizing divorce, and 6 were against it. We go through all these efforts because our vision is to give ordinary people a voice, to connect people's opinions and to encourage critical thinking. We understand that this is not enough of a sample size and want to hear from more people on this issue. So, why don't you share your opinions with the world - just make a video of yourself and upload it to UA-cam with the title, "Filipino Divorce Law #AsianBossOpinions.” You don’t need to be Asian or live in Asia. We will feature the best responses in one of our future videos.
The Church will give an annulment to couples in the extreme cases that they are talking about. Marriage is considered a merging of the souls into one so as to procreate with God to produce children. If a couple can show that they never actually became one then the marriage contract can be nullified. In other words, treated as it never happened. This can get very complicated if their are children involved. I used to believe the Church was wrong about their stance on divorce but the last 30 years has showed the world what happens when divorce becomes too easy. The older I get the more I see and understand the wisdom of the Church.
ChiChi Appio-- I have seen it destroy the family and the influence it used to have on our offspring. There is other factors of course like welfare that made it more profitable to be a single mother rather than being married. When children grow up without a loving mother and father, that actually love their children enough to say no to them and discipline them when necessary, they grow up with no respect for authority and many stay locked in that childish mind set for the rest of their lives. I am 76 years old now but by the time I was 12 years old, I knew how to drive a car, ride a horse, shoot a gun and respect authority and it was all because my Mom and Dad love me enough to make it happen . The same went for my brother and sister. Of course I thought they were just being mean at the time but by the time I got out of college I was ready to deal with the world. When they say that families that pray together stay together, it is very true. It is also true that if you live your life according to the teaching of the Church you will be much more likely to have a happy and productive life. The Bible is not a rule book that God gave us to make us live a miserable life. It is a book of wisdom that is trying to tell us how to be truly happy and avoid the pitfalls that so many people make. I was lucky enough to find a wife that already knew this the first time because it took me a while to understand it. God bless!
Constantin Klose-- The Catholic Church has a marriage tribunal made up of 3 priests that interview people and many of their family and acquaintances.They make the final decision as to whether or not you can get an annulment. It could take up to 3 years. If you are not Catholic this may not make sense to you but the Bible says that what God has joined together let no man put asunder. This takes the pressure off the person getting a divorce because the Church is taking responsibly for the divorce and call it an annulment. If they determine that the two of you were never really compatible and never had a meeting of the minds or souls. They take the part about " till death do us part" pretty serious as it should be.
mochi's butt - actually the correct translation for that is "courting" not "flirting" 😊 though somehow it has the same context but still the word "flirt" is too vulgar haha
I guess we should be more aware of the difference between 'flirt' and "courtship" Careful with your translation. It will change the opinion of the speaker to the Native who might be watching it.
Dovilė Tavus love your profile pic! But we speak like that because we were taught English as well as Tagalog or Bisaya and it’s just the culture to speak that way, it’s hard to explain but as a Filipino it’s just always been a part of the way we speak that makes us unique.
Yeah in Malaysia too. We go by which language feels most comfortable at the moment. Some thoughts are best expressed in one language or another. It's also how we're used to talking.
Some words which are easier to say in English is said in English, some Tagalog words are just long, repetitive and outdated and sounds old to use, so we code-switch
Dovilė Ta I dunno how to express it but it is like ur brain found the word u are looking for but it is in a different language from ur initial sentence but u just go with it bcuz u know the person u are talking to can understand it... I do that automatically without thinking when i am with my friends who can speak the same amount of language as i am.... like from korean to english to chinese and sometimes to malay as well... It is mostly bcuz some words are better being said in a certain language.
Dovilė Ta, both languages are native to both the speaker and the listener, nothing disrespectful. Some expressions are just more natural or accurate or more commonly said in one of the languages than the other. If they were talking to a foreigner who speaks only one of them, I'm pretty sure they would say everything in that one language.
Seeing people being confused about the fact that they switch between Tagalog,English,and Spanish strangely amuses me edit: y'all... im literally filipino i know💀
erico1098 I thought there was something wrong with the audio. Like the original tagalog voice of the people was not completely dubbed by the english translater 😂
We Filipinos are exposed to both Filipino (usually Tagalog) and English in our entire lives, so it just makes sense that we code-switch A LOT, especially the younger generation.
Spanish colonization. Theres a place here where they speak broken spanish as their dialect. People were forced to learn español under the spanish colonization period.
As an English speaker who doesn't understand any Filipino languages, it's really mind-blowing to listen. It seems like at random every 4-5 words the speakers switch to English and then to a different language and then back again. All languages have loan words, but it almost feels like the language the interviewees are speaking has "loan sentences." I've listened to people speak many different languages, but this is a first for me.
@@Forlfir Don't worry because it's starting to change. The government ordered for schools start teaching children in their "Mother tongue" or dialect in most subjects in order to preserve the Filipino language.
@@Forlfir We have tagalog reading materials and a filipino subject in our schools, but for the other subjects, we mainly use english like for math and science (especially because they have a lot of difficult terms) But in class discussions, we speak tagalog and in the process, english words/phrases/terms get mixed in the lecture. English is being used a lot to the point that it gets mixed up in our day-to-day tagalog conversations and it just became more comfortable for us to use, thus taglish uwu But when we do code switching, it's not that we totally forgot the translation of the word in tagalog (well, most of the time), it's just that we got used to using the english term more than the tagalog one so it became more comfortable to use them. owo
our national language is FILIPINO and not tagalog...tagalog is a dialect from luzon that people use...ma'am, our teacher kepts on repeating and correcting us about our language *face palms* omg
Yeah. I don't consider it something amazing tho, until I read comments about people saying how cool our language switch from Filipino to English. Now that I read that, I'm ashtonished too. It was something like magic 😂
Kasalanan kase yun kapatid nakasulat ss bibliya kahit hiniwalayan mo na yung babae kapag nangbabae ka yung kasama mo ngayon ay nagkasala at pati na rin ikaw...walang batas batas na gawa ng tao ang makatatalo sa salita ng diyos.
Filipinos can literally learn any language at this rate.😂😂 Just like here in Japan, Japanese people are very surprised at how Filipinos can learn Japanese quickly.
Abs0lute_ K-pop actually they love k-pop now to the point where they were going to remove filipino and replacing it with korean language although I’m not sure
美絵流ーちゃん [Mieru-Chan] I'm a Filipino and I love anime and Japanese culture so much. So I decided to learn Japanese language through self study. I was able to take a good grasp of it and is eventually able to understand words without subtitles. I just keep on listening to Japanese music and watch anime or movie then jot down words and sentences and try to translate it. Then I use Japanese dictionary app and books as well. It really helped me a lot even tho my accent is not like a native speaker yet. I also do monologues and speak Japanese to my Filipino friends even tho only 1 out of a hundred understands me😊
Because some are interested how Filipinos switch from one language to another and how they hear different languages mixed in like Spanish, Hindi and mostly English.
I can just imagine how Philippine Language sounds really strange to Western countries. It’s actually more difficult for us to communicate with only our own language.
Yeah, true… But it kind of makes it difficult to advocate for the standardization and intellectualization of the local languages, right? Like I think it's good we can speak English, but it's not really a two-way system. I think it's kind of showing in the country's scientific and technological literacy… Or-I don't know, I'm just buzzing off or something…
Actually its because some of the terms/words are much easier in English than in Filipino. I think it is due to Filipino terms are probably forgotten or rarely used.
When they started to speaking English and I was like 'ooh I understand what they were saying' and then they switched back to their language...Seems like I understand but actually no. My mind is blowing.
I can understand both sides. As a christian myself, I do uphold the marriage as very sacred. But for a person who have to deal with domestic violence or any other type of abuse such as child abuse, there should be an option to be able to leave without getting punished for it.
I have no idea what actually goes on within the actual country, and therefor only goes by the actual residents there from this interview, and from my understanding it costs a lot of money, and what happens to those people who are suffering from that and can't fork up the money? That is giving a message that too bad, you are not rich enough to have a good life and be deserving of happiness.
Wtf? Those people who are for banning divorce accept that some people will live in abusive relationship. This is cruel unfair and disgusting. You cant be at both sides you either agree for people to have right to choose if they want to get divorce or youre against it. Thats it.
"Don't marry people who wont keep their vows." You never know how a person turns out to be after 5, 10, 15 years of marriage. They might turn into a cheater or abuser or perhaps you drift apart. People change, people make mistakes. That's why marriage without the option of getting divorce is too rigid of a concept in reality.
English is filled with Spanish French German Italian Latin and 100's of native american words just like Tagalog. Both languages absorb other languages. It has nothing to do with colonization. What makes English so prevalent in the world is because it has so many subtle meanings of so many ideas and thoughts just like Tagalog. Both languages have words that can't be described in other languages. They are dynamic and alive.
Divorce is illegal in the Philippines because the Church said so. Sad. The Church is encouraging couples to live in sin to avoid the wrath of divorce. I wonder if the Church realizes that.
The filipines are an asian country that was colonized by the spanish and then remained in the USA sphere of influence for a long time so I believe this had an influence in their language
They are switching language mid-sentence which very common in the Philippines. Most Filipinos speaks 2 to 3 languages. Specially those people who lives outside the capital have to speak 3 or more languages/dialects.
We use both English or Tagalog (or other mother tongue like Bisaya, Ilocano, Bicolano, depending on the region) when conversing with other people. Also, it's part of the educational system here to use English as well.
This language is absolutely amazing, they are speaking pieces of multiple languages, of course you can hear the English but you can also occasionally hear the Spanish (trabajo or pasa for example) Its amazing how far colonisation reached and affected cultures deeply.
This is why I love Asian boss. I have so many filipino friends n coworkers yet I know so little about their country and culture. Never knew they were a catholic country or divorce was illegal. Shocking. I feel so ignorant everyday tbh.
Starlight in my Universe Well, we can’t be knowledgeable on all things- unless you’re someone/something omnipotent. 😂 That’s where the joy of learning comes in! we might feel ignorant everyday but it’s an opportunity to learn something new every single day.
Came here to read the comments on the video but got distracted with all the “are they switching languages mid-sentence” replies. Maybe this should be the next Philippines video, Asian Boss.
Oh and I see people confused about the language. The language is a mix of native languages, malay, Chinese, Spanish and English. Plus some Arab words here and there.
Yuri The Knaifu I just replied in your way. Also, I sent some sources go check that out. You don't hear it, cause it's single words that we've adapted over 800 years that the Chinese have been in the country. We made it our own. The Chinese language has influenced loads of Asian languages. And since we are Austronesian, our language is related to Bahasa Malayu and Bahasa Indonesia. Plus when the Arabs came and brought Islam to our country, we also adapted a few of those words.
Prin Ren TS I agree, especially back then. There were a lot more of malay words used in tagalog, especially in kapampangan, ilokano and bisaya till now.
@@lalalyn2380 sabihin mo yan sa rice tarrification law na bago lang naipasa na very anti poor. Kawawa naman ang mga farmers. Talo na nga natin ang china bilang importer of rice which is ironic kasi tayo ang tinuringang agricultural country at maraming bigas. Our agriculture sector is dying tapos naipasa pa ang rice tarrification law na yan na 5 pesos lang per kilo? Nasaan ang hustisya? Porket nagsasabi lang ng katotohanan sa ating lipunan. Komunista na kaagad? Mas gugustuhin ko nalang maging komunista kaysa magbulag bulagan sa katotohanan.
you are really right..annulment fot rich only.. hindi ko gusto ang batas sa pinas sobrang selfish...hindi nli iniintindi ang ibang pilipino ..mag asawa na matagal ng nagjiwalay at may iisang pamilya na sa iba
Some Filipinos from the Provinces had to learn 3 languages. 1. Local Language (Bisaya, Ilonggo, Kapampangan, Pangasinense, Ilokano, Maranao, Surigaonon, Waray, etc.) 2. Filipino Language 3. English Language Dile man siya lisud pero parang hard lang :)
"If divorce does become legal the percentage of cheaters might rise." This doesn't make sense in my eyes. It would be the other way around. The percentage of cheaters would go down because there's no need to secretly cheat on your partner behind their back if you can get divorced.
+Yutaa Mendoza Marriage is not divine sacrosanct. It's merely a social contract for two individuals to engage in a usually monogamous romantic and sexual relationship, usually with the goal of raising progeny. If you feel that your partner has violated the social contract, you absolutely should have the right to break it off. Simple.
Yutaa Mendoza it is just simple.. If you are just going to cheat don't get married. Or don't marry a cheater.. No marriage No Divorce and use contraceptives so there will be no kids involved..
This is the most insightful channel. Thank you so much for your efforts. I learn so much everyday about other countries from ordinary people not news and tabloid propaganda.
This language is so fascinating to me. It's Tagalog Spanish and English all at once I love hearing them talk🥺I understand every other word ahah I would love to learn it one day
as a filipino, i believe that our country being very dependent on the church is one of the hindrances why our country never got out of the "3rd world/developing countries." we could never entertain new ideas easily because we always have to agree to the church and the older generation aka elderly who has very different beliefs and opinions from the newer generation.
Very true. Our dependency on the church stems back all the way to the Spanish Colonization era where religion is used to actually manipulate people. Which sadly, is still effective up to this date. What I want for us to learn is to question things. The simple reason of "Because we're Catholic" is not enough, it's an excuse. Most of the Filipinos don't even understand the religion itself and the history behind it. Sad🤐
@Francisco Gamus Just want to make it clear that in my reply I did not state my agreement or disagreement with divorce. All I'm saying is that the "religious" ideology is what actually prevents most Filipinos to be critical in this situation. Honestly, I don't think divorce will work here. It will just be taken advantage of (in that I actually strongly agree with you). We can agree that even without divorce, and adultery actually illegal, it didn't stop Filipinos to cheat, separate, or annul. And it is true that the people who want to pass it wants a piece of it. Marriage will become more convenient if there will be divorce here because there is an "easy way out". Ironically, I also am thinking that maybe by creating more grounds and making it less expensive, annulment is still a better option than divorce. And please don't just assume my side because clearly my reply didn't state my opinion on the matter at hand directly.
Nahh, hinaharangan lang ng mga mismong lawyers yang Divorce bill dahil mawawalan nga naman sila ng kita kung maipapasa yan. Sa annulment kasi kumikita sila(dahil nga sa tagal ng proseso). Business kasi ang annulment para sa kanila.
I came from a broken family here in the Philippines and my parents are currently on the process of annulment for 14 years now, it branch from one case to another and then another. The judges alr changed a hanful of times and we're still not close to actually seeing the end of it. Money spent and all. It affected me so much having to deal with it at a young age and having to speak infront when I turned 18 and choose one to defend. I feel like it would've been much better for me if there was a divorce. Not legalizing the divorce won't make my dad love my mom again nor will it prevent my dad from cheating. It only distances your feelings to your parents and that's the worst of all, ending up with none of them. I hope it gets legalized, having a broken family here is the new norm. I wish they realize that soooner rather than later.
Thank you for sharing your story and opinion. Cause your story is the finest proof that children need to be raised in love, not in hatred or cheating. Everyone makes mistakes, and marriage could also be a mistake. And divorce is a way to show children, future adults, the healthy relationship when people do not turn each other lifes into a nightmare, but respect each others freedom and will.
I'm sorry for what happened to your family. I do hope you have become a different person, far from the picture of your father that you presented here. Children do really need to be raised in love. So before one enters marriage, one must be prepared that it could all go wrong, because it's a lifetime commitment and that should have been a deterrent for all of us. Your mother need not stay in such a bad relationship, she can always leave her husband. But she did take the vow with full consent...
I'm married to a Filipino here in the UK. My wife has many friend with new partners here who can't get devorced from people in the Philippines who they haven't seen for 10 years+.
Mapang apak pa yung iba, mga palasimba nga pero mapangmata. Yung ex wife ng partner ko nilait pa ung family ko at ng partner ko ngayon na husband nmn nia dati dahil lang broken family kmi parehas. Kung sino pa palasimba masama ang nalabas sa bibig.😢 sino ba nmn my gustong maging broken family kung un naman ang mas nagpaayos sa pagsasama sa family nmin kaysa nmn hindi pwede maghiwalay pero laging magulo nkkastress malaki epekto .iba na tlga ngayon ang pag gamit nila sa salita ng diyos. Dapat maipasa na yan para malaman nilang hindi sila powerful as they are now. New norm na yung broken family hindi nagwork ganon talaga.
I don’t get the “percentage of cheaters might rise” as if cheating is only present in countries where there are divorce rates. I think divorce should be legal specifically because of cheating and how easily it’s swept under the rug just because you “don’t want to upset the family”.
Exactly - it’s sad because as a filipino i feel like you’re not allowed to complain about filipino society even when it’s toxic and harmful and you’re just stating the truth, but everyone wants to ignore it and put smiles on and not rock the boat. That means though that if you keep the status quo people will continue to suffer and nothing will change for the better - it feels a lot like society is still in the colonial era and there’s a pining for it
@@lizasplaylist Divorce is not needed here, you can file an adultery case for men and concubinage for women who cheats, how about abusive husbands? They will be charged with the VAWC law or anti violence against women and their children law, minor to serious physical injury, serious illegal detention and the list goes on. We also have annulment you can also file for legal separation.
It feels so good how they keep switching the language. It's very similar to India. People use English terms so casually while speaking in native language.
This is why the separation of church and state is so important. Many of these people are so indoctrinated by religion that they can't even rationally assess the issue.
Razear actually, the way we treat marraige is more in line with the idea of seperation of church and state. Marraige is a private affair mediated by the church. If one wishes to remove oneself from that marraige it needs to undergo a process that the church instated (annulment). We also apply this rationale with our muslims citizenry who marries under the islamic tradition. The state doesn't oversee the marraige of couples. That is done by the church.
kwazooplayingguardsman nope. Our laws treat it as a special contract. That’s Art. 1 of the Family Code of the Philippines.. The state has a say on what a valid marriage is and our laws provide strict grounds on annulment and legal separation. It is not entirely a private and religious.
kwazooplayingguardsman marriage is not made from your church honey. Stop mixing your biblical flat earth society in the reality. You’re not helping people.
The Philippine government is secular in nature, but the Philippines also has a huge Christian/Catholic population which has a lot of influence on government decision-making.
Everybody is either talking about how impressed they are with the language or how baffling it is that people can’t get divorced in some parts of the world - I’m really impressed at the intelligence displayed in the interview though! For random people polled on the streets, the answers were well informed and generally pretty thoughtful. That’s awesome
Hediyeh B The Philippines was under the Spanish rule for 400 years, thus the influence in its language. PH's national language is called "Filipino" (same word to mean its citizens) but there are 100+ dialects in the country. Zamboanga City found in the southern part of the archipelago is known for the dialect "Chavacano" which largely resembles Spanish language.
eggs Why? Did it bother you? Any quantitative definition for "spam"? I posted it as a response to comments on the language because I assumed not all who were wondering about the matter (and therefore posted their thought as a comment) would not seek for answers in other comment threads. If the action "offended" you (though I would be wondering why), then, sorry... not sorry. Have a great day!
As a Filipino who has taught low income college kids for years, I can say that divorce would be a godsend for a lot of those families. You don't know the trauma of a dyafunctional and toxic family who still keeps staying together. I've had kids who constantly cry and suffer while they were studying because their home life was terrible, with usually an abusive dad that they can't legally get away from.
The subtitles are straight to the point of what the interviews are trying to say. I'd probably be like them where I will likely gonna go through several hoops for what I wanna say before reaching the point of what I'm saying. :D
If the simple thought of legalizing divorce threatens your marriage, then you should rethink how strong your relationship with your spouse is. If you're against divorce, then don't practice it. Furthermore, do not deny the rights of other individuals to choose who they want to be with or not. I'm a Filipino and I agree with divorce.
That's not a good argument. You could make the same argument in support of legalizing pedophilia. If you're against pedophilia, then don't practice it. -- One thing that has become obscured in the modern age is the fact that life necessarily and beneficially involves struggle and unpleasantness. You don't learn much in school if you don't put aside your desire to go out and play for a while. You don't succeed in business without putting in a lot of hours of hard work. Lots of life's lessons are learned the hard way. Subjective desires are not reliable indicators of the path to long-term happiness. Divorce should perhaps be allowed, in order to allow the worst cases to dissolve, but made fairly difficult, in order to motivate people in temporary difficulty to work things out. Virtually no one ever finds a perfect partner, and no one will learn how to work the difficulties out without tolerating some hard times. -- The longer explanation of these things involves the scientific attitude. Science objectifies and mathematizes the things it studies, and science gives us a lot of power to manipulate things in our material environment. When science is applied to people, though, what we're objectifying, mathematizing, and manipulating are other people. This may seem OK when you're the one applying the science, but less so when you are the person who is being objectified, turned into a number, and manipulated, like livestock. Yet the social sciences are very influential in modern thinking, with very little awareness of how the social sciences degrade human dignity. -- One irony of our scientific times is the way we ignore the Darwinian survival of human customs. Traditions change slowly, but a look at the 5,000 years of human civilization shows huge changes and a wide variety of customs and traditions. The traditions that survive and the traditions that are found to be held in common among the majority of human cultures have withstood a lot of tests of trial and error and challenges from alternative ways of doing things. But despite this evolutionary history of customs and traditions, we like to think that we can figure everything out ourselves. The result is, among other things, a set of social sciences that has little constancy, and is subject to intellectual fads and fashions, some of them dangerous.
@@grizzlygrizzle It's a good argument if you add the word "harm". Everybody should have the right to lead their individual lives as they see fit, without external interference, as long as they don't harm others (or other's prospects to lead happy prosperous lives). In the case of "practicing pedophilia" children are harmed. Divorce doesn't harm anybody - in fact, forcing people to be together against their will creates a nightmarish cycle of endless lying and psychological abuse. Arguments against divorce aren't based on any evidence or nuanced understanding of human history and psychology. Religious principles are themselves a matter of personal preference and should be strictly limited to people's inner lives and spiritual guidance. Wouldn't it be better if religious people actually read holy texts and aspired to be faithful to them in their individual lives instead of shifting responsibility to external force (their government)?
@@KalinaRotten -- I didn't mention religion, though religion can, aside from its specifically religious aspects, serve as a vehicle for conveying the trial-and-error findings of a culture from one century to another. You should be aware that there are many social scientists who argue that often there's no harm done in pedophilia. What I was arguing against was the form of the original argument, which is a more sophisticated version of, "If you don't like X, then don't do X." This argument has been used again and again in the U.S. to justify abortion, and more recently, in the state of New York, abortion right up to the last moments of delivery, which is essentially infanticide. (Feminists cheered when this law was passed.) -- One of the problems with the "If you don't like X, then don't do X" approach is that it seems to assume that human beings magically turn into morally mature adults at age 18, and that there are no common character disorders that persist into adulthood, and no moral guidance is required in adulthood. Programs for the reform of alcoholics, addicts, and prisoners would seem to contradict this, as well as even more common programs for broader behavioral guidance in churches, self-help movements, and psychotherapy. The extreme libertarian assumptions in "If you don't like X, then don't do X" don't really fit the moral landscape of humanity. -- And it is ironic that with regard to abortion, such a libertarian argument is offered by people on the far left who in other areas are notorious control freaks with regard to other behaviors like so-called "hate speech," gun ownership, medical insurance, taxation and wealth accumulation, business regulations, and so on. -- At the other end of the spectrum from libertarianism is totalitarianism, and though libertarians take too much for granted about humans' natural inclinations toward good behavior, totalitarians seem to ignore the importance of liberty in the development of a moral compass. You don't learn to do the right thing when no one is looking, if you never have any circumstances when no one is looking or no one is regulating your behavior. -- There are some behaviors like murder, robbery, rape, and kidnapping that need to be outlawed, but there are lots of others for which discouragement is required, but for which harsh penalties would be disproportionate. Human life has lots of weak moments and moments of duress that tempt people to take easy ways out that later prove harmful to themselves or others. A lot of people do a lot of stupid things. But any "expert" is also subject to doing stupid things, even if he does them at a higher level. Totalitarian "utopias" like Nazism and communism are high-level stupid things, and have ended up killing millions and millions of people. There's no perfect system, given human imperfections. The best we can do is to punish the worst behaviors while discouraging the merely stupid.
we Filipinos have different beliefs with you... marriage is sacred to us... most of us don't want to legalize divorce, for me annulment is enough.. by the way I'm a product of broken family but still I don't want to legalize divorce..
Legalising divorce leads people to have more freedom to become unfaithful and not further workout their marriage to make it work because divorce allows them to separate at will. I think thats what the man was trying to say....I think.
Very very true. I wish they had people speak up from dysfunctional Filipino families - especially those who have been abused - as this law impacts them the most.
it is already separated unlike in Muslim area like Saudi Arabia - state and religion as one _ but in the Philippines - the Gov't stands alone , the same with the Church - The Church only bat in when she sees that there is something wrong that is going on or rather she is exercising her own PROPHETIC role because the people in the gov't are the people in the Church. how can you survive as person if you don't nourish your spiritual life? If you nourish only your physical life then you don't love at all. God is Love. Love is being preached by the Church and we are the church people. God did not talk in a loud speaker for us to hear but rather through the Church.
it's such a bad idea to seperate religion with politics. Kailangan nilang magkaisa kasi magkakaroon tayo ng parang barrier na naghahati sa mga mamamayan. We should be united as a nation. Ang religion natin ang naguunite sa atin and ang politics ang syang namamahala at pumoprotekta sa atin.
@@randomperson4161 no religion does not define us. There are many Catholic nations in the world and they do not care about the politics of their respective countries at all. Examples of which are the European countries. Catholicism is long gone from their constitution, and look at them. They are much more successful without the meddling of the church.
Law of God? Baket, bumaba ba ang diyos sa langit para magsulat jan sa bibliya na yan? Saan deductive reasoning niyo? Logic? Critical thinking? I mean we’re asking baket di tayo ummunlad. Are we really this ignorant? Or are we just dumb?
@Jil Y Acknowledge God from where? If the Bible said kainin mo tae mo, kakainin mo rin ba kasi "law of God" iyon? You think a bunch of people that had no form of government back then, that had to think of a way to control the masses, had to write something to reign them all in, is law of God? I was always taught that the people that wrote the Bible was "inspired by God" to write it. Well, in that case, if JK Rowling would claim that she is inspired by God to write Harry Potter, then should we start treating it as gospel as well?

I'm Filipino, and with us it is very common to mix English and Filipino in one sentence. When I watch UA-cam videos of Filipino's being interviewed, a lot of foreigners comment on how we can speak English, Filipino and Spanish words in one sentences and how it looks so natural for us to mix them. The thing is, we learn both Filipino and English at school starting in kindergarten. With English, you speak it fully when you have to, like in formal setting, school setting, but with everyday conversations, there are a lot of times where there are words you can't say in Filipino because there are no direct translations, so we use the English words. Then also, some Filipino words can be too long so we just substitute the most convenient English word. It's not accidental for us but rather it's the norm to speak with mixed Filipino and English. It's not that easy to speak in pure Filipino in long conversations. We might stumble on trying to find or remember Filipino words seldom used. It's even harder to speak pure Tagalog which is the language that is the basis of Filipino. Although I myself don't speak in English in casual conversations. There might be English words, but the base of the sentence is in Filipino grammar. When I am speaking in English, I don't mix Filipino words, unless I forget the word or there is no English for that word. Returning to a previous info I mentioned, unlike what foreigners think on how we also speak Spanish, we don't. It's just that Spanish words have been integrated in Filipino deeply. So we're not switching to Spanish, we're still speaking Filipino. Those Spanish words heard are really the words we use to refer to certain things, because we prefer them over more native Tagalog words. The Filipino language is basically Tagalog with Spanish and English words integrated, and some from Chinese, Indian, Malay etc. Spanish words are the most because of the 300 plus years of colonization that's why those who speak Spanish think we know Spanish when they listen to interviews. Example sentences: Kuhanin mo yung towel sa loob ng banyo. Get the towel inside the bathroom. Towel is an English word and banyo is from Spanish. But the base of the sentence lies in Filipino grammar. We wouldn't speak with English as the base like Get the twalya inside the banyo. That sounds cringe, and as they call it here, conyo.
Banyo is actually baño. I am so sad you have to mix so many things together. I only know Spanish and English to a certainly degree. Never had the chance to learn French though studied for a while, or Japanese, Korean or Chinese but for very few words.
What's funny is conservative daw pero we also have the highest rate of live-in relationships because of this sacredness of marriage. People prefer to have a live-in relationship than marry because it's not easy to marry
It shows how weak Filipino morales are today if that is the trend which should not be allowed to proliferate. It does reflect the disintegrated and lowering standard of the values and morales of the modern Filipino society. With all the media bombarding us nowadays, it is no wonder. That is why we need to reeducate ourselves on the importance of the sacredness of marriage.
Haha (since you're using English, I might as well..) That would be hard because it just flows out of you and mixes with Filipino naturally. To do that you have to be aware of the words in your mind before letting it out of your mouth. And sometimes I forget the equivalent tagalog word of the English word.
As a cebuano speaker and from Mindanao, it's hard for me to speak the 'pure' Cebuano language (no spanish influence, etc). I don't know with others but if I speak or write "proper/formal" Cebuano (the ones you hear on the radios, or public announcements - they use words w/c are not used in daily conversations), I tend to think in English and try my best on how to translate it. The challenge for me always is talking in Tagalog...I sometimes think in Cebuano then process it in English in my mind on what's the equivalent Tagalog term. Nosebleed haha
But at the bottom line, we are having difficulties because of having multiple dialects and sooner or later our native language might be erase to our native tounges.
@@chrono-glitchwaterlily8776 I dont really know about portugal language and indonesian language but i have a malaysian friend and tagalog and malay language both have similar words
Most Filipinos don't understand the difference between a divorce and an annulment. The reason annulments are so expensive is because they will spend so much time in court proving that the marriage was fruitless, that there was never a real marriage in the first place. In a divorce, you pretty much just cancel the marriage contract. This is why prenuptial agreements are almost always a must have.
I live in Italy and most of my Filipinos friends have parents that aren't together anymore, making illegal doesn't keep ppl from doing it. I'm Christian and divorce is allowed in certain places in the Bible.
Im not really that religious but I dont think Divorce is in the bible tho, and as they promised when they were in their marriage "Till death do as part" i think it must be changed to "till death or divorce or annulment do as part" if it is
I don't define myself religious, I do practice my faith and read my Bible. God hates divorced, but Moses allowed it because of people hearts, also Jesus condemns divorced but there are narrow cases, such as adultery , in which is allowed. Check Deuteronomy 24 and Matthew 5.
Yes, some few Spanish adopted words. A Spanish creole also exists in the PH called Chabacano. Although, the one you heard was Tagalog, the mostly spoken dialect , same as to Mandarin in Chinese. English has been the language of instruction in the country, hence it's not alienating to speak it often in public.
Are they speaking english spanish and their native language mixed, im hearing some spanish in there as well not to mention some similarities to malay/indo type bahasa likeWut lol
They are speaking their own language and English. The Spanish are loan words that really are part of the native language while the English ones are just that, English.
PLEASE do one on homosexuality in the Philippines, discussing LGBTQ+ rights & etc. With how divorce legalization ties in heavily to religious beliefs, I want to see their insights on this issue as well. I'm Filipino, a Christian, in support of divorce legalization & LGBTQ+ rights. I want to know my fellow Filipinos' thoughts as well.
Obviously the majority would be super against it. For the most part it is a backwards country concerning human rights/personal freedom due to it's high religiosity........
1988kcmo The youth is actually more open to LGBTQ+. I think it's because divorce is only an issue here & the Vatican City and it's legal everywhere else in the world, that it isn't talked about as often, and there are barely discussions on it by youth so it is more swayed by old traditions. On the other hand, the pro-LGBTQ+ here are proactive in support, even organizing an LGBTQ+ march. I think the influence comes mainly from media & from LGBTQ+ rights being supported around the world in each country, one by one, with legalizing marriage. I was at the airport last week and saw that there was an LGBTQ+ restroom which was very surprising for me. It was my first time seeing one.
I know man, just saying it would be interensing to communicate in spanish with an Asian country. But you have a total different language nowadays so it's imposible
Víctor We used to have Spanish lessons. Why we slowly drifted away from that now is because learning Mandarin is a huge asset for anyone wanting to deal with Chinese businessmen. More opportunity, they said
A few of them are concerned about how filipinos will abuse divorce if it is legalized, one even said that cheating will escalate. What's interesting is that, since this is a predominantly-Catholic country, why should that be a concern? If we follow the values of marriage via the Bible, then why not follow the values of being a husband and of being a wife?
Right. If the teachings are so sacred, there shouldn't be a concern. That is just an ideal, it's not reality. The reality is a lot of people cheat and separate from their partners. You can't force someone to stay with you. The consequences of trying to do so can be worse than getting an actual divorce. And honestly separating and starting new families while still being married to your ex is way more disrespectful imo. And there are a lot of young single mothers too!. So the whole "marriage is sacred" thing is a very weak argument. They need to make divorce accessible.
Look at america, about 50% of couples get divorced and cheating is so common that no one is even surprised anymore when someone says they are cheating. More and more men are choosing not to get married because of how fucked up the system is now. The Philippines should stay the way it is now. Unless there is a legitimate reason such as physical abuse, divorce shouldnt be legal. I dont like him/her anymore is not a valid reason and people should be more responsible about marriage
Men are not marrying because they don't want to be taken to the cleaners and pay off the divorced wife. Most Filipinos don't have the assets like Americans do they got nothing to lose if they divorce.
Cheating would go down. Look at the guy in this very video who left his wife (who he's still married to) and started a family with another woman. Textbook cheating. That's very common in the Philippines, as is just vanishing and never coming back to your spouse, who can't get divorced from you. When you're this hostile to the concept of divorce and consider it a sin, a lot of people also don't see any difference between the sin of getting a divorce and the sin of having their spouse killed so they can marry again (which is also common in the Philippines). There is absolutely no downside from legalizing divorce.
I'm a filipino, but I am strongly against not allowing divorce. The fact that Philippines still doesn't allow divorce in the 21st century is kinda stupid. Like yes, its a catholic country, but its never a good idea to mix religion with law. Those saying that not allowing divorce keeps a family structured are also ridiculous. To think that some people only keep with their spouse, even if they don't get along, even if they fight 24/7 - just because they want to uphold some piece of paper they signed... its beyond me. And anyway, what is your marriage even worth when your children know that you and your spouse have no love for each other? That is just teaching them such a bad lesson for life. Teaching them to just settle; stay with a person you don't love, for the rest of your life, even if you are unhappy. It is a waste of living. You only have one life. You should strive to be happy - not conform to something that makes you unhappy - especially when its ultimately just documents.
This is the problem with most marriages. Rather than allow the legalisation of divorce, why don’t all couples just always plan their relationships well and always choose wisely? Everyone should understand their partner inside and out to see if they’re truly compatible with each other. Same thing with abortion. If you don’t want to have a child, don’t have sex to begin with.
@Noypinoy C. It all depends on the person you spend time with. Sometimes, we don't know that they have done something bad despite knowing them for years, you know what I mean? But yeah, I agree with what you said there.
losang yolmo My grandma is Filipina. Hearing her order at a restaurant in the Philippines was amazing ^_^ /Tagalog Tagalog Tagalog/ Pancakes /Tagalog Tagalog/...
Some speak three languages and some are polyglots speaking several. One of my friends is from Pangasinan where they got their own language. She also speaks Tagalog and English. And one day one of her former classmates posted something on Facebook in another language she told me she does not understand. There are over 100 languages in the Philippines.
I'm a Filipino and a practicing Catholic, and I'm fervently FOR the passing of the divorce bill. It's about time that this is legalized. It's unfair for those in abusive marriages or unhappy marriages to stay together even on paper just because it's illegal to divorce. I mean, marriage is a beautiful and sacred thing, and one should consider himself or herself blessed to be in a happy marriage. What about those who weren't lucky to have such a marriage? Why not let those in bad marriages end it when they could legally. There is legal separation but it prohibits either spouse to remarry. Then there's annulment, which takes up so much money and time going through lawyers, priests, and psychologists to prove that your spouse was ~psychologically unstable~ at the time of marriage. I don't understand why people keep bringing up the Catholic faith when newsflash: not everyone in the Philippines is Catholic, and even most of those Catholic really don't give a shit about Catholic teachings and are only Catholics on paper. It's so frustrating how there cannot be a separation of Church and State as it really should be.
kwazooplayingguardsman but legally speaking, annulment has very strict grounds and hence applicable to only very few instances. (Please read Art. 45 of the Family Code for reference) Annulment does not cover cases of domestic abuse, infidelity, abandonment etc that’s why we need a divorce law to address these cases.
connie grace rafol infidelity is actually covered and one can agrue that if a marraige is retained only due to physical duress (ie abuse), it is also covered.
kwazooplayingguardsman marriage under duress is totally different from domestic abuse during the marriage. Also, Art. 45 of the family code has only 6 grounds and does not include infidelity nor abandonment as one of the grounds for annulment.
Because it's actually English. We do that because it's easier for us. We learn both Filipino and English at the same time, yearly for about 20 years of our lives. We know both languages equally, when we forgot the Filipino term, we switch to English.
For those non Filipinos heres some clarification on the language. The Philippines was colonized by the Spanish (and the US for a little bit). It stayed in the US sphere of influence for quite a while as well. In result this just mishmashed the language with Spanish, English and Filipino. Turning it into this combo
@mm waha anong big deal dun? tsaka nasa history na natin yan malaki ang mga impluwensya ng mga puti sa atin at tsaka kilala rin naman sa Mexico at Germany ang history ng mga Pilipino sa Kastila, kasi may nakasulat silang libro tungkol dun kasama nadin yung mga manuscripts na isinulat ni Rizal, una niya yung ipi-nablish sa Germany. karamihan sa mga Filipino walang kaalam alam sa history ng Pilipinas, mga basic facts lang ang alam nila at wala akong pake kung maiinis sila. wala naman tayong kasalanan, mismong mga puti nang colonized satin.

Weve Been colonized by spaniard for 3 decades thats why our native language which is tagalog are mixed or have a spanish word . We Use TAGLISH "Tagalog & English" to easily express our opinion 👌
It was seriously hard for my brain to keep switching between reading subs, hearing english, then some spanish, thinking I could stop reading (cuz subs and words were diff), then getting punch with more tagalog... Very interesting, quite hard, incredibly weird.
I have a Philippine friend her husband cheated on her and are treating her badly. They even have a son together and the women are pregnant now. Divorce is necessary so I hope for her sake she gets a divorce!
come on your friend can separate anytime and file complain to barangay and if it true then she have a right to separate. but you cant marry anymore because that is a law of religion almost all religion and law of our government .. sorry for my english.
An annulment might be better although much harder to undergo than divorce because it has to satisfy other requirements before it can be granted. Divorce is like granting polygamy, you might be divorced from your legal spouse but will be regarded as previously married in the public records but allowed by law to marry again and again after a divorce and another divorce, etc. Annulment means to be entirely severed from marriage from such a partner and all records be erased tying you to such a marriage. And, as the injured party here, she could file a suit against her husband for adultery. It is still there in the Philippine Constitution. Her husband can be imprisoned for such an offense. 😎

It took our team in the Philippines over 5 hours to get 10 people for this street interview. And out of those 10 people, 4 were in favor of legalizing divorce, and 6 were against it. We go through all these efforts because our vision is to give ordinary people a voice, to connect people's opinions and to encourage critical thinking. We understand that this is not enough of a sample size and want to hear from more people on this issue. So, why don't you share your opinions with the world - just make a video of yourself and upload it to UA-cam with the title, "Filipino Divorce Law #AsianBossOpinions.” You don’t need to be Asian or live in Asia. We will feature the best responses in one of our future videos.
The Church will give an annulment to couples in the extreme cases that they are talking about. Marriage is considered a merging of the souls into one so as to procreate with God to produce children. If a couple can show that they never actually became one then the marriage contract can be nullified. In other words, treated as it never happened. This can get very complicated if their are children involved. I used to believe the Church was wrong about their stance on divorce but the last 30 years has showed the world what happens when divorce becomes too easy. The older I get the more I see and understand the wisdom of the Church.
wow Jack, thanks for your insight. What exactly have you seen in the last 30 years that makes you reconsider divorce laws? thanks
Jack Mann how is a couple supposed to show that they never "became one"?
ChiChi Appio-- I have seen it destroy the family and the influence it used to have on our offspring. There is other factors of course like welfare that made it more profitable to be a single mother rather than being married. When children grow up without a loving mother and father, that actually love their children enough to say no to them and discipline them when necessary, they grow up with no respect for authority and many stay locked in that childish mind set for the rest of their lives. I am 76 years old now but by the time I was 12 years old, I knew how to drive a car, ride a horse, shoot a gun and respect authority and it was all because my Mom and Dad love me enough to make it happen . The same went for my brother and sister. Of course I thought they were just being mean at the time but by the time I got out of college I was ready to deal with the world. When they say that families that pray together stay together, it is very true. It is also true that if you live your life according to the teaching of the Church you will be much more likely to have a happy and productive life. The Bible is not a rule book that God gave us to make us live a miserable life. It is a book of wisdom that is trying to tell us how to be truly happy and avoid the pitfalls that so many people make. I was lucky enough to find a wife that already knew this the first time because it took me a while to understand it. God bless!
Constantin Klose-- The Catholic Church has a marriage tribunal made up of 3 priests that interview people and many of their family and acquaintances.They make the final decision as to whether or not you can get an annulment. It could take up to 3 years. If you are not Catholic this may not make sense to you but the Bible says that what God has joined together let no man put asunder. This takes the pressure off the person getting a divorce because the Church is taking responsibly for the divorce and call it an annulment. If they determine that the two of you were never really compatible and never had a meeting of the minds or souls. They take the part about " till death do us part" pretty serious as it should be.

Janice Pimentel I agree.

I'm surprised at so many people's discomfort at the interviewees swtiching languages. This is common in multilingual countries.
Dovilė Tavus love your profile pic! But we speak like that because we were taught English as well as Tagalog or Bisaya and it’s just the culture to speak that way, it’s hard to explain but as a Filipino it’s just always been a part of the way we speak that makes us unique.
Yeah in Malaysia too. We go by which language feels most comfortable at the moment. Some thoughts are best expressed in one language or another. It's also how we're used to talking.
Some words which are easier to say in English is said in English, some Tagalog words are just long, repetitive and outdated and sounds old to use, so we code-switch
Dovilė Ta I dunno how to express it but it is like ur brain found the word u are looking for but it is in a different language from ur initial sentence but u just go with it bcuz u know the person u are talking to can understand it...
I do that automatically without thinking when i am with my friends who can speak the same amount of language as i am.... like from korean to english to chinese and sometimes to malay as well...
It is mostly bcuz some words are better being said in a certain language.
Dovilė Ta, both languages are native to both the speaker and the listener, nothing disrespectful. Some expressions are just more natural or accurate or more commonly said in one of the languages than the other. If they were talking to a foreigner who speaks only one of them, I'm pretty sure they would say everything in that one language.
Seeing people being confused about the fact that they switch between Tagalog,English,and Spanish strangely amuses me

As an English speaker who doesn't understand any Filipino languages, it's really mind-blowing to listen. It seems like at random every 4-5 words the speakers switch to English and then to a different language and then back again. All languages have loan words, but it almost feels like the language the interviewees are speaking has "loan sentences." I've listened to people speak many different languages, but this is a first for me.

English is being used a lot to the point that it gets mixed up in our day-to-day tagalog conversations and it just became more comfortable for us to use, thus taglish uwu But when we do code switching, it's not that we totally forgot the translation of the word in tagalog (well, most of the time), it's just that we got used to using the english term more than the tagalog one so it became more comfortable to use them. owo

That is giving a message that too bad, you are not rich enough to have a good life and be deserving of happiness.
Wtf? Those people who are for banning divorce accept that some people will live in abusive relationship. This is cruel unfair and disgusting. You cant be at both sides you either agree for people to have right to choose if they want to get divorce or youre against it. Thats it.
"Don't marry people who wont keep their vows." You never know how a person turns out to be after 5, 10, 15 years of marriage. They might turn into a cheater or abuser or perhaps you drift apart. People change, people make mistakes. That's why marriage without the option of getting divorce is too rigid of a concept in reality.
i wish i could replace the word sacred with spiritual
Comments about language all over this section: one word- COLONIZATION
Not just language, religion, too! The Romans colonised Britain for nearly 400 years and left behind tons of their language that we all use today.
Every country on Earth has been colonised at some point. It's part of human history!
English is filled with Spanish French German Italian Latin and 100's of native american words just like Tagalog. Both languages absorb other languages. It has nothing to do with colonization. What makes English so prevalent in the world is because it has so many subtle meanings of so many ideas and thoughts just like Tagalog. Both languages have words that can't be described in other languages. They are dynamic and alive.

ME: How can divorce be illegal in Philippine? and how many languages on earth can a Filipino speak in just one sentence?
Filipino (tagalog) and English are the primary language of our country. So Taglish was born.
Divorce is illegal in the Philippines because the Church said so. Sad. The Church is encouraging couples to live in sin to avoid the wrath of divorce. I wonder if the Church realizes that.
@@PUPPETNETTES then why marrying a persom if u think both of u wont work out? Pathetic

Emmanuel Obinwanor code-switching is the term.
The filipines are an asian country that was colonized by the spanish and then remained in the USA sphere of influence for a long time so I believe this had an influence in their language
They are switching language mid-sentence which very common in the Philippines. Most Filipinos speaks 2 to 3 languages. Specially those people who lives outside the capital have to speak 3 or more languages/dialects.
WE ARE BILINGUALS
It's called taglish - tagalog and english

I love speaking two languages at once like that. That's what makes it fun when I am learning a new language.
We use both English or Tagalog (or other mother tongue like Bisaya, Ilocano, Bicolano, depending on the region) when conversing with other people. Also, it's part of the educational system here to use English as well.
Hello nice
This language is absolutely amazing, they are speaking pieces of multiple languages, of course you can hear the English but you can also occasionally hear the Spanish (trabajo or pasa for example) Its amazing how far colonisation reached and affected cultures deeply.
Harry Cake yes hahaha also here in the south, u can hear 4 languages mix in a sentence hahaha
Harry Cake 300 years of colonization....
333 years to be specific if not exact😃
Well, I guess thank you for finding this language amazing..? 😅🤣

Oh and I see people confused about the language. The language is a mix of native languages, malay, Chinese, Spanish and English. Plus some Arab words here and there.
Prin Ren TS Chinese???
Yuri The Knaifu Trust me. I am filipino. And I don't think you know your own language.
Yuri The Knaifu I just replied in your way. Also, I sent some sources go check that out. You don't hear it, cause it's single words that we've adapted over 800 years that the Chinese have been in the country. We made it our own. The Chinese language has influenced loads of Asian languages. And since we are Austronesian, our language is related to Bahasa Malayu and Bahasa Indonesia. Plus when the Arabs came and brought Islam to our country, we also adapted a few of those words.
Prin Ren TS I agree, especially back then. There were a lot more of malay words used in tagalog, especially in kapampangan, ilokano and bisaya till now.
No Chinese there I don't think

"If divorce does become legal the percentage of cheaters might rise." This doesn't make sense in my eyes. It would be the other way around. The percentage of cheaters would go down because there's no need to secretly cheat on your partner behind their back if you can get divorced.
People still make a big deal of marriages if we just look at any country that isn't the Vatican and the Phillippines.
They already do treat it that way. People get separated anyway. They just stay married on paper but they are not together anymore.
+Yutaa Mendoza
Marriage is not divine sacrosanct. It's merely a social contract for two individuals to engage in a usually monogamous romantic and sexual relationship, usually with the goal of raising progeny.
If you feel that your partner has violated the social contract, you absolutely should have the right to break it off.
Simple.
Secretly cheating or not is still cheating.. The number of secret cheaters will go down but the number of cheaters still the same..
Yutaa Mendoza it is just simple.. If you are just going to cheat don't get married. Or don't marry a cheater.. No marriage No Divorce and use contraceptives so there will be no kids involved..
This is the most insightful channel. Thank you so much for your efforts. I learn so much everyday about other countries from ordinary people not news and tabloid propaganda.

Gracias
This language is so fascinating to me. It's Tagalog Spanish and English all at once I love hearing them talk🥺I understand every other word ahah I would love to learn it one day
Taglish for short
as a filipino, i believe that our country being very dependent on the church is one of the hindrances why our country never got out of the "3rd world/developing countries." we could never entertain new ideas easily because we always have to agree to the church and the older generation aka elderly who has very different beliefs and opinions from the newer generation.
Very true. Our dependency on the church stems back all the way to the Spanish Colonization era where religion is used to actually manipulate people. Which sadly, is still effective up to this date.
What I want for us to learn is to question things. The simple reason of "Because we're Catholic" is not enough, it's an excuse. Most of the Filipinos don't even understand the religion itself and the history behind it. Sad🤐
@Francisco Gamus Just want to make it clear that in my reply I did not state my agreement or disagreement with divorce. All I'm saying is that the "religious" ideology is what actually prevents most Filipinos to be critical in this situation. Honestly, I don't think divorce will work here. It will just be taken advantage of (in that I actually strongly agree with you).
We can agree that even without divorce, and adultery actually illegal, it didn't stop Filipinos to cheat, separate, or annul. And it is true that the people who want to pass it wants a piece of it. Marriage will become more convenient if there will be divorce here because there is an "easy way out".
Ironically, I also am thinking that maybe by creating more grounds and making it less expensive, annulment is still a better option than divorce.
And please don't just assume my side because clearly my reply didn't state my opinion on the matter at hand directly.
I think filipinos should balance the law and religion.
Nahh, hinaharangan lang ng mga mismong lawyers yang Divorce bill dahil mawawalan nga naman sila ng kita kung maipapasa yan. Sa annulment kasi kumikita sila(dahil nga sa tagal ng proseso). Business kasi ang annulment para sa kanila.
Accurate.
I came from a broken family here in the Philippines and my parents are currently on the process of annulment for 14 years now, it branch from one case to another and then another. The judges alr changed a hanful of times and we're still not close to actually seeing the end of it. Money spent and all. It affected me so much having to deal with it at a young age and having to speak infront when I turned 18 and choose one to defend. I feel like it would've been much better for me if there was a divorce. Not legalizing the divorce won't make my dad love my mom again nor will it prevent my dad from cheating. It only distances your feelings to your parents and that's the worst of all, ending up with none of them. I hope it gets legalized, having a broken family here is the new norm. I wish they realize that soooner rather than later.
Thank you for sharing your story and opinion. Cause your story is the finest proof that children need to be raised in love, not in hatred or cheating. Everyone makes mistakes, and marriage could also be a mistake. And divorce is a way to show children, future adults, the healthy relationship when people do not turn each other lifes into a nightmare, but respect each others freedom and will.
I'm sorry for what happened to your family. I do hope you have become a different person, far from the picture of your father that you presented here. Children do really need to be raised in love. So before one enters marriage, one must be prepared that it could all go wrong, because it's a lifetime commitment and that should have been a deterrent for all of us. Your mother need not stay in such a bad relationship, she can always leave her husband. But she did take the vow with full consent...
This is the reason why Catholics in ph did not approve divorce, because of money , ang perang nagagastos sa annoulment ay napupunta sa simbahan
I'm married to a Filipino here in the UK. My wife has many friend with new partners here who can't get devorced from people in the Philippines who they haven't seen for 10 years+.

More like confusing

Because I'm not bilingual
Why so? 😂😂
I don’t get the “percentage of cheaters might rise” as if cheating is only present in countries where there are divorce rates. I think divorce should be legal specifically because of cheating and how easily it’s swept under the rug just because you “don’t want to upset the family”.
If anything... it would decrease rates of cheating. He’s dumb if he doesn’t think cheating is happening because divorce is illegal.
Exactly - it’s sad because as a filipino i feel like you’re not allowed to complain about filipino society even when it’s toxic and harmful and you’re just stating the truth, but everyone wants to ignore it and put smiles on and not rock the boat. That means though that if you keep the status quo people will continue to suffer and nothing will change for the better - it feels a lot like society is still in the colonial era and there’s a pining for it
@@lizasplaylist Divorce is not needed here, you can file an adultery case for men and concubinage for women who cheats, how about abusive husbands? They will be charged with the VAWC law or anti violence against women and their children law, minor to serious physical injury, serious illegal detention and the list goes on. We also have annulment you can also file for legal separation.
It feels so good how they keep switching the language. It's very similar to India. People use English terms so casually while speaking in native language.

This is why the separation of church and state is so important. Many of these people are so indoctrinated by religion that they can't even rationally assess the issue.
Razear actually, the way we treat marraige is more in line with the idea of seperation of church and state. Marraige is a private affair mediated by the church. If one wishes to remove oneself from that marraige it needs to undergo a process that the church instated (annulment).
We also apply this rationale with our muslims citizenry who marries under the islamic tradition.
The state doesn't oversee the marraige of couples. That is done by the church.
kwazooplayingguardsman nope. Our laws treat it as a special contract. That’s Art. 1 of the Family Code of the Philippines.. The state has a say on what a valid marriage is and our laws provide strict grounds on annulment and legal separation. It is not entirely a private and religious.
kwazooplayingguardsman marriage is not made from your church honey. Stop mixing your biblical flat earth society in the reality. You’re not helping people.
The Philippine government is secular in nature, but the Philippines also has a huge Christian/Catholic population which has a lot of influence on government decision-making.
*Clap*..
Everybody is either talking about how impressed they are with the language or how baffling it is that people can’t get divorced in some parts of the world - I’m really impressed at the intelligence displayed in the interview though! For random people polled on the streets, the answers were well informed and generally pretty thoughtful. That’s awesome
In every asian boss ep Philippines comment section:
Actual topic: 1%

Hediyeh B The Philippines was under the Spanish rule for 400 years, thus the influence in its language. PH's national language is called "Filipino" (same word to mean its citizens) but there are 100+ dialects in the country. Zamboanga City found in the southern part of the archipelago is known for the dialect "Chavacano" which largely resembles Spanish language.

As a Filipino who has taught low income college kids for years, I can say that divorce would be a godsend for a lot of those families. You don't know the trauma of a dyafunctional and toxic family who still keeps staying together. I've had kids who constantly cry and suffer while they were studying because their home life was terrible, with usually an abusive dad that they can't legally get away from.
The person who did the subs changed the way these people worded their opinion.

The subtitles are straight to the point of what the interviews are trying to say. I'd probably be like them where I will likely gonna go through several hoops for what I wanna say before reaching the point of what I'm saying. :D

If the simple thought of legalizing divorce threatens your marriage, then you should rethink how strong your relationship with your spouse is.
If you're against divorce, then don't practice it. Furthermore, do not deny the rights of other individuals to choose who they want to be with or not. I'm a Filipino and I agree with divorce.
That's not a good argument. You could make the same argument in support of legalizing pedophilia. If you're against pedophilia, then don't practice it.
-- One thing that has become obscured in the modern age is the fact that life necessarily and beneficially involves struggle and unpleasantness. You don't learn much in school if you don't put aside your desire to go out and play for a while. You don't succeed in business without putting in a lot of hours of hard work. Lots of life's lessons are learned the hard way. Subjective desires are not reliable indicators of the path to long-term happiness. Divorce should perhaps be allowed, in order to allow the worst cases to dissolve, but made fairly difficult, in order to motivate people in temporary difficulty to work things out. Virtually no one ever finds a perfect partner, and no one will learn how to work the difficulties out without tolerating some hard times.
-- The longer explanation of these things involves the scientific attitude. Science objectifies and mathematizes the things it studies, and science gives us a lot of power to manipulate things in our material environment. When science is applied to people, though, what we're objectifying, mathematizing, and manipulating are other people. This may seem OK when you're the one applying the science, but less so when you are the person who is being objectified, turned into a number, and manipulated, like livestock. Yet the social sciences are very influential in modern thinking, with very little awareness of how the social sciences degrade human dignity.
-- One irony of our scientific times is the way we ignore the Darwinian survival of human customs. Traditions change slowly, but a look at the 5,000 years of human civilization shows huge changes and a wide variety of customs and traditions. The traditions that survive and the traditions that are found to be held in common among the majority of human cultures have withstood a lot of tests of trial and error and challenges from alternative ways of doing things. But despite this evolutionary history of customs and traditions, we like to think that we can figure everything out ourselves. The result is, among other things, a set of social sciences that has little constancy, and is subject to intellectual fads and fashions, some of them dangerous.
In the UK devorce has been so normalised that people get divorced because they're bored and dissatisfied. Destroying their children's wellbeing!
@@grizzlygrizzle It's a good argument if you add the word "harm". Everybody should have the right to lead their individual lives as they see fit, without external interference, as long as they don't harm others (or other's prospects to lead happy prosperous lives). In the case of "practicing pedophilia" children are harmed. Divorce doesn't harm anybody - in fact, forcing people to be together against their will creates a nightmarish cycle of endless lying and psychological abuse. Arguments against divorce aren't based on any evidence or nuanced understanding of human history and psychology. Religious principles are themselves a matter of personal preference and should be strictly limited to people's inner lives and spiritual guidance. Wouldn't it be better if religious people actually read holy texts and aspired to be faithful to them in their individual lives instead of shifting responsibility to external force (their government)?
@@KalinaRotten -- I didn't mention religion, though religion can, aside from its specifically religious aspects, serve as a vehicle for conveying the trial-and-error findings of a culture from one century to another. You should be aware that there are many social scientists who argue that often there's no harm done in pedophilia. What I was arguing against was the form of the original argument, which is a more sophisticated version of, "If you don't like X, then don't do X." This argument has been used again and again in the U.S. to justify abortion, and more recently, in the state of New York, abortion right up to the last moments of delivery, which is essentially infanticide. (Feminists cheered when this law was passed.)
-- One of the problems with the "If you don't like X, then don't do X" approach is that it seems to assume that human beings magically turn into morally mature adults at age 18, and that there are no common character disorders that persist into adulthood, and no moral guidance is required in adulthood. Programs for the reform of alcoholics, addicts, and prisoners would seem to contradict this, as well as even more common programs for broader behavioral guidance in churches, self-help movements, and psychotherapy. The extreme libertarian assumptions in "If you don't like X, then don't do X" don't really fit the moral landscape of humanity.
-- And it is ironic that with regard to abortion, such a libertarian argument is offered by people on the far left who in other areas are notorious control freaks with regard to other behaviors like so-called "hate speech," gun ownership, medical insurance, taxation and wealth accumulation, business regulations, and so on.
-- At the other end of the spectrum from libertarianism is totalitarianism, and though libertarians take too much for granted about humans' natural inclinations toward good behavior, totalitarians seem to ignore the importance of liberty in the development of a moral compass. You don't learn to do the right thing when no one is looking, if you never have any circumstances when no one is looking or no one is regulating your behavior.
-- There are some behaviors like murder, robbery, rape, and kidnapping that need to be outlawed, but there are lots of others for which discouragement is required, but for which harsh penalties would be disproportionate. Human life has lots of weak moments and moments of duress that tempt people to take easy ways out that later prove harmful to themselves or others. A lot of people do a lot of stupid things. But any "expert" is also subject to doing stupid things, even if he does them at a higher level. Totalitarian "utopias" like Nazism and communism are high-level stupid things, and have ended up killing millions and millions of people. There's no perfect system, given human imperfections. The best we can do is to punish the worst behaviors while discouraging the merely stupid.
Grease monkey thats the fault of the lawmakers for not making the law strict.

Very very true. I wish they had people speak up from dysfunctional Filipino families - especially those who have been abused - as this law impacts them the most.
@@lizasplaylist I totally agree. I hope someday they separate the government and the church when it comes to laws like this.
Also, growing up in a dysfunctional, abusive, problematic and toxic family setting greatly affects a child's growth and mental health.
True.
As a filipino myself I think we really need to seperate the church/religion and politics
Totally agree except some politicians rely on Church to endorse them during election time. Then the Church has a hold on most of them.
it is already separated unlike in Muslim area like Saudi Arabia - state and religion as one _ but in the Philippines - the Gov't stands alone , the same with the Church - The Church only bat in when she sees that there is something wrong that is going on or rather she is exercising her own PROPHETIC role because the people in the gov't are the people in the Church. how can you survive as person if you don't nourish your spiritual life? If you nourish only your physical life then you don't love at all. God is Love. Love is being preached by the Church and we are the church people. God did not talk in a loud speaker for us to hear but rather through the Church.
it's such a bad idea to seperate religion with politics. Kailangan nilang magkaisa kasi magkakaroon tayo ng parang barrier na naghahati sa mga mamamayan. We should be united as a nation. Ang religion natin ang naguunite sa atin and ang politics ang syang namamahala at pumoprotekta sa atin.
Say it to CBCP, the anti administration Damasos.
@@randomperson4161 no religion does not define us. There are many Catholic nations in the world and they do not care about the politics of their respective countries at all. Examples of which are the European countries. Catholicism is long gone from their constitution, and look at them. They are much more successful without the meddling of the church.

You think a bunch of people that had no form of government back then, that had to think of a way to control the masses, had to write something to reign them all in, is law of God? I was always taught that the people that wrote the Bible was "inspired by God" to write it. Well, in that case, if JK Rowling would claim that she is inspired by God to write Harry Potter, then should we start treating it as gospel as well?

I'm Filipino, and with us it is very common to mix English and Filipino in one sentence. When I watch UA-cam videos of Filipino's being interviewed, a lot of foreigners comment on how we can speak English, Filipino and Spanish words in one sentences and how it looks so natural for us to mix them.
The thing is, we learn both Filipino and English at school starting in kindergarten. With English, you speak it fully when you have to, like in formal setting, school setting, but with everyday conversations, there are a lot of times where there are words you can't say in Filipino because there are no direct translations, so we use the English words. Then also, some Filipino words can be too long so we just substitute the most convenient English word.
It's not accidental for us but rather it's the norm to speak with mixed Filipino and English. It's not that easy to speak in pure Filipino in long conversations. We might stumble on trying to find or remember Filipino words seldom used. It's even harder to speak pure Tagalog which is the language that is the basis of Filipino.
Although I myself don't speak in English in casual conversations. There might be English words, but the base of the sentence is in Filipino grammar.
When I am speaking in English, I don't mix Filipino words, unless I forget the word or there is no English for that word.
Returning to a previous info I mentioned, unlike what foreigners think on how we also speak Spanish, we don't. It's just that Spanish words have been integrated in Filipino deeply. So we're not switching to Spanish, we're still speaking Filipino. Those Spanish words heard are really the words we use to refer to certain things, because we prefer them over more native Tagalog words. The Filipino language is basically Tagalog with Spanish and English words integrated, and some from Chinese, Indian, Malay etc. Spanish words are the most because of the 300 plus years of colonization that's why those who speak Spanish think we know Spanish when they listen to interviews.
Example sentences:
Kuhanin mo yung towel sa loob ng banyo.
Get the towel inside the bathroom.
Towel is an English word and banyo is from Spanish. But the base of the sentence lies in Filipino grammar.
We wouldn't speak with English as the base like
Get the twalya inside the banyo.
That sounds cringe, and as they call it here, conyo.
Banyo is actually baño. I am so sad you have to mix so many things together. I only know Spanish and English to a certainly degree. Never had the chance to learn French though studied for a while, or Japanese, Korean or Chinese but for very few words.
What's funny is conservative daw pero we also have the highest rate of live-in relationships because of this sacredness of marriage. People prefer to have a live-in relationship than marry because it's not easy to marry
catalina caliope not to mention expensive
It shows how weak Filipino morales are today if that is the trend which should not be allowed to proliferate. It does reflect the disintegrated and lowering standard of the values and morales of the modern Filipino society. With all the media bombarding us nowadays, it is no wonder. That is why we need to reeducate ourselves on the importance of the sacredness of marriage.

Me and my partner were together for 12years and were not married so therefore i believe you. 😊👍
Filipinos talk without using English words challenge!
Haha (since you're using English, I might as well..) That would be hard because it just flows out of you and mixes with Filipino naturally. To do that you have to be aware of the words in your mind before letting it out of your mouth. And sometimes I forget the equivalent tagalog word of the English word.
That's pretty basic. I can definitely do it in my entire life. LOL . but avoiding the Spanish. *no one* can do that.
That's like asking Filipinos to go back to the 19th century without the presence of American colonial rule. lol!
I can do that. Hahaha
As a cebuano speaker and from Mindanao, it's hard for me to speak the 'pure' Cebuano language (no spanish influence, etc). I don't know with others but if I speak or write "proper/formal" Cebuano (the ones you hear on the radios, or public announcements - they use words w/c are not used in daily conversations), I tend to think in English and try my best on how to translate it. The challenge for me always is talking in Tagalog...I sometimes think in Cebuano then process it in English in my mind on what's the equivalent Tagalog term. Nosebleed haha
Their dialect is so interesting! I wish I knew more than one language
fun fact: the average Filipino can speak about 2-4 dialects/languages in a single sentence :)
Wish you could visit Philippines, we are more welcome to teach you.
Brooke yeah... We Filipinos are actually multilingual. We love to learn from other countries' culture
I know 5 local dialects and english..
But at the bottom line, we are having difficulties because of having multiple dialects and sooner or later our native language might be erase to our native tounges.

Most Filipinos don't understand the difference between a divorce and an annulment. The reason annulments are so expensive is because they will spend so much time in court proving that the marriage was fruitless, that there was never a real marriage in the first place. In a divorce, you pretty much just cancel the marriage contract. This is why prenuptial agreements are almost always a must have.
I live in Italy and most of my Filipinos friends have parents that aren't together anymore, making illegal doesn't keep ppl from doing it. I'm Christian and divorce is allowed in certain places in the Bible.
Im not really that religious but I dont think Divorce is in the bible tho, and as they promised when they were in their marriage "Till death do as part" i think it must be changed to "till death or divorce or annulment do as part" if it is
They also have many kids adoption homes because abortion is banned
I don't define myself religious, I do practice my faith and read my Bible. God hates divorced, but Moses allowed it because of people hearts, also Jesus condemns divorced but there are narrow cases, such as adultery , in which is allowed. Check Deuteronomy 24 and Matthew 5.
Some of my friends explained to me, there's a lack of sexual education.
Esco Royale it’s in the canon laws ✌🏼
Thank you for working hard to give everyone new perspectives on things. This video was very interesting!
It should be "courtship" not "flirt". Be careful how you translate. It has a different meaning.
no it doesnt. Filipinos demonize the word "flirt" but its not bad at all. when you smile at your crush, that's basically flirting.
Courting is still a better term
I agree...

It's really cool to hear them switch between two languages while they talk :-)
NOCH its pretty cool. i think i heard 3 languages in there no? Some English and Spanish.
Yes, some few Spanish adopted words. A Spanish creole also exists in the PH called Chabacano. Although, the one you heard was Tagalog, the mostly spoken dialect , same as to Mandarin in Chinese. English has been the language of instruction in the country, hence it's not alienating to speak it often in public.
NOCH hahaha here in the south, u can hear 3-4 languages mixed in a sentence hahahaha
No, 3 languages
There are lots of Spanish words.
Examples: pero, trabajo, familia, para, oras, etc.

No. The spanish and malay/indo you can hear are Filipino words.

They are speaking their own language and English. The Spanish are loan words that really are part of the native language while the English ones are just that, English.
PLEASE do one on homosexuality in the Philippines, discussing LGBTQ+ rights & etc. With how divorce legalization ties in heavily to religious beliefs, I want to see their insights on this issue as well. I'm Filipino, a Christian, in support of divorce legalization & LGBTQ+ rights. I want to know my fellow Filipinos' thoughts as well.
kannequi // yes!!
Obviously the majority would be super against it. For the most part it is a backwards country concerning human rights/personal freedom due to it's high religiosity........
1988kcmo The youth is actually more open to LGBTQ+. I think it's because divorce is only an issue here & the Vatican City and it's legal everywhere else in the world, that it isn't talked about as often, and there are barely discussions on it by youth so it is more swayed by old traditions.
On the other hand, the pro-LGBTQ+ here are proactive in support, even organizing an LGBTQ+ march. I think the influence comes mainly from media & from LGBTQ+ rights being supported around the world in each country, one by one, with legalizing marriage. I was at the airport last week and saw that there was an LGBTQ+ restroom which was very surprising for me. It was my first time seeing one.
You may be surprised, 1988kcmo. It would definitely be an interesting topic to cover!
kannequi // I would love to hear/watch that! It’s a very “sensitive” topic in PH!

Víctor We used to have Spanish lessons. Why we slowly drifted away from that now is because learning Mandarin is a huge asset for anyone wanting to deal with Chinese businessmen.
More opportunity, they said
A few of them are concerned about how filipinos will abuse divorce if it is legalized, one even said that cheating will escalate. What's interesting is that, since this is a predominantly-Catholic country, why should that be a concern? If we follow the values of marriage via the Bible, then why not follow the values of being a husband and of being a wife?
Right. If the teachings are so sacred, there shouldn't be a concern. That is just an ideal, it's not reality. The reality is a lot of people cheat and separate from their partners. You can't force someone to stay with you. The consequences of trying to do so can be worse than getting an actual divorce. And honestly separating and starting new families while still being married to your ex is way more disrespectful imo. And there are a lot of young single mothers too!. So the whole "marriage is sacred" thing is a very weak argument. They need to make divorce accessible.
Look at america, about 50% of couples get divorced and cheating is so common that no one is even surprised anymore when someone says they are cheating. More and more men are choosing not to get married because of how fucked up the system is now. The Philippines should stay the way it is now. Unless there is a legitimate reason such as physical abuse, divorce shouldnt be legal. I dont like him/her anymore is not a valid reason and people should be more responsible about marriage
Men are not marrying because they don't want to be taken to the cleaners and pay off the divorced wife. Most Filipinos don't have the assets like Americans do they got nothing to lose if they divorce.
Cheating would go down. Look at the guy in this very video who left his wife (who he's still married to) and started a family with another woman. Textbook cheating. That's very common in the Philippines, as is just vanishing and never coming back to your spouse, who can't get divorced from you. When you're this hostile to the concept of divorce and consider it a sin, a lot of people also don't see any difference between the sin of getting a divorce and the sin of having their spouse killed so they can marry again (which is also common in the Philippines). There is absolutely no downside from legalizing divorce.
Yeah, what that guy said was a stupid comment. If anything not being able to get divorced leads to MORE cheating.
look how younger generations tend to be more open-minded with this kind of issue
Mabuhay
I'm a filipino, but I am strongly against not allowing divorce.
The fact that Philippines still doesn't allow divorce in the 21st century is kinda stupid. Like yes, its a catholic country, but its never a good idea to mix religion with law. Those saying that not allowing divorce keeps a family structured are also ridiculous. To think that some people only keep with their spouse, even if they don't get along, even if they fight 24/7 - just because they want to uphold some piece of paper they signed... its beyond me.
And anyway, what is your marriage even worth when your children know that you and your spouse have no love for each other? That is just teaching them such a bad lesson for life. Teaching them to just settle; stay with a person you don't love, for the rest of your life, even if you are unhappy. It is a waste of living.
You only have one life. You should strive to be happy - not conform to something that makes you unhappy - especially when its ultimately just documents.
Taking an oath and breaking your vows. Wow! Bravo
This is the problem with most marriages. Rather than allow the legalisation of divorce, why don’t all couples just always plan their relationships well and always choose wisely? Everyone should understand their partner inside and out to see if they’re truly compatible with each other.
Same thing with abortion. If you don’t want to have a child, don’t have sex to begin with.
But that's why we have annulment
@@juandeararo8594 double negative hahaha
@Noypinoy C. It all depends on the person you spend time with. Sometimes, we don't know that they have done something bad despite knowing them for years, you know what I mean? But yeah, I agree with what you said there.

I'm a Filipino and a practicing Catholic, and I'm fervently FOR the passing of the divorce bill. It's about time that this is legalized. It's unfair for those in abusive marriages or unhappy marriages to stay together even on paper just because it's illegal to divorce. I mean, marriage is a beautiful and sacred thing, and one should consider himself or herself blessed to be in a happy marriage. What about those who weren't lucky to have such a marriage? Why not let those in bad marriages end it when they could legally. There is legal separation but it prohibits either spouse to remarry. Then there's annulment, which takes up so much money and time going through lawyers, priests, and psychologists to prove that your spouse was ~psychologically unstable~ at the time of marriage. I don't understand why people keep bringing up the Catholic faith when newsflash: not everyone in the Philippines is Catholic, and even most of those Catholic really don't give a shit about Catholic teachings and are only Catholics on paper. It's so frustrating how there cannot be a separation of Church and State as it really should be.
cmq23 we have proper recourse for this, its called annulment.
kwazooplayingguardsman but legally speaking, annulment has very strict grounds and hence applicable to only very few instances. (Please read Art. 45 of the Family Code for reference) Annulment does not cover cases of domestic abuse, infidelity, abandonment etc that’s why we need a divorce law to address these cases.
connie grace rafol infidelity is actually covered and one can agrue that if a marraige is retained only due to physical duress (ie abuse), it is also covered.
kwazooplayingguardsman marriage under duress is totally different from domestic abuse during the marriage. Also, Art. 45 of the family code has only 6 grounds and does not include infidelity nor abandonment as one of the grounds for annulment.
kwazooplayingguardsman “if a marriage is retained only due to physical duress xxx” can you please cite the law covering that? Thank you!
Im surprised how their language sounds like English sometimes!
Faggatron its actually english being mix with spanish and tagalog. That’s how the filipino casual talk
Because it's actually English. We do that because it's easier for us. We learn both Filipino and English at the same time, yearly for about 20 years of our lives. We know both languages equally, when we forgot the Filipino term, we switch to English.
For those non Filipinos heres some clarification on the language.
The Philippines was colonized by the Spanish (and the US for a little bit). It stayed in the US sphere of influence for quite a while as well. In result this just mishmashed the language with Spanish, English and Filipino. Turning it into this combo
Yes, we were under Spaniards for over 300 years and US for 48 years. It tells us a lot where our Filipino words come from - from our colonizers.

but you cant marry anymore because that is a law of religion almost all religion and law of our government ..
sorry for my english.
Simple solution... don't get married in church.
Jann Lee no offense you could had say Filipino I instead of Philippine but most people say that
An annulment might be better although much harder to undergo than divorce because it has to satisfy other requirements before it can be granted. Divorce is like granting polygamy, you might be divorced from your legal spouse but will be regarded as previously married in the public records but allowed by law to marry again and again after a divorce and another divorce, etc. Annulment means to be entirely severed from marriage from such a partner and all records be erased tying you to such a marriage.
And, as the injured party here, she could file a suit against her husband for adultery. It is still there in the Philippine Constitution. Her husband can be imprisoned for such an offense. 😎
