    I'm a Filipino and I'm so done with my own country. Going out of the house feels like a warzone every time. You have to be vigilant because you never know what you'll gonna deal with because of people's selfishness and lack of manners. I feel a lot calmer and peaceful when I'm in other countries.

      Being a Filipino I so hate the inconsideration of late or early karaoke, there should be a bylaw on this. Too many to correct in the Philippines. I believe in fines and punishment, this is where the country is so bad, it's a forgiving culture and that's why even the imprisoned corrupt officials I am convinced besides being forgiven, bribe themselves out of jail after a couple years. Also money is so powerful although it's not exclusive to the Philippines. But at least in the states you see rich and influential criminals being punished.

      That's so true. Generally, Filipinos are friendly and nice. People here with their one, two, three or more experiences of bad Filipinos are crying too much not accepting although they know in their mind that all of those experiences occur anywhere. In my recent visit to Canada, a tall blonde lady rear-ended me. I asked for her license to exchange info, she hesitated. I called 911 for help. Before the police came, I approached her to ask for her license again, snubbing me and talking to somebody on the phone, she was crying saying: "He was rude to me (what a crazy liar ) I thought it was her husband. Police came. They asked for my license and story. It took long. They did not bother asking the white lady--one racism. When she finally gave her license to me and we had a little bit of arm wrestling for she was so hesitant when she was handing it to me and I grabbed it as soon as she did but she wouldn't let go. She ran to the back of my open trunk and slammed it hard. This is the friendly Canada. Still, I regard Canada as one of the best countries in the world. Most possibly, there were other racially-motivated bad encounters that other non-Canadians have had and I've heard some from other people when I was there. We all still love Canada. Because we are mature and kind-hearted people. Killings of kids and black people in the states does not make the US the most dangerous although that country has a very obvious racism. People here dwell on their experience and are still crying.

      The Philippines is inhabited by a population of children and I don't mean to be offensive, but if you examine their behavior carefully , you will arrive at the conclusion that they are indeed children, deadly and violent children, take for instance, not admitting their mistakes , it's a typical child behavior to deny/admit his/her mistake.
      Denialism was developed as a coping mechanism to shield them from the horror of a country they themselves have created.
      "That's impossible, how to grow like this. Criticism is important" As easy and logical this statement sounds, it's alien to an average Filipinos. They simply don't give a fk and the worst part is, they don't do it conciously , it's subconcious. It's really painful to try to analyze their behavior. In a short, there is no hope for Filipinos, they are a hopeless case.

      I dodged a bullet in the Philippines, after living there nearly two years, built a nice house in a province. Initially I thought it was a nice place to live, but after seeing the place through rose coloured glasses, I came to realise it was quite a horrible place. Loud music all night, filthy streets, they drop trash everywhere, mangy dogs everywhere, the crab mentality, the ‘me first’ culture, the foreigner will always be at fault in a vehicle accident, they will take, take take, the foreigner will be taken advantage of. When I complained about the loud music, I was told to go back to my home country, growing nationalism is a problem. The humidity became intolerable. The guy posting this video spent a long time apologising for the many annoying aspects of the Philippines. I removed the rose coloured glasses finally, sold my property and returned to my home country. Left the Stone Age behind.

      If you're a weak and poor country with not much to show off on world stage, your default choice will be nationalism and being overproud is the thing unique to those asian developing third world countries from southeast and south asia such as Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and India. When your country is not well known around the world other than cheap labor export and young wifey market towards the middle aged cauasian, your default choice will be watching vloggers who show positivity towards your country to cope. When you see your own skin or your local products as inferior but overreliance on foreign quality products and think that they are superior, the local entrepreneur will find it so hard to succeed to push local brands. As you can see filipino are using media to control their life on how they think and how they should support. Filipino will pledge the proudness for their Jollibee fast food chain or their fame boxer Pacquiao or Miss Universe or some Hollywood star even with 1.03% of the filipino blood, but the moment when you lose they will turn their back on you

      Most folks have to get out, if they want to get ahead. PH greatest export is people, and remittances from abroad the greatest import. I agree with what you say. A history of being colonized, the awful Spanish treatment, and corruption have taken their toll. The TV dramas are very unhealthy. Filipinos are very resourceful and tough though. They make a lot of sacrifice. They hold a lot of stuff in, bury their feelings, hence the cruelty towards others, is what I think. There is no help at all for those struggling with mental health issues, rampant dysfunction or poverty. Rich ppl often treat the poor badly, exploit and abuse them. White skin is considered 'beautiful', while brown skin is 'ugly'. It is a tough place. Despite the poverty, it is surprisingly safe. But that seems to be changing too. Scams against foreigners are on the rise.

    As an Aussie who has spent quite a time living the daily household life in South Africa, England and now retired in the Philippines, I learned very quickly to live by the old saying “When in Rome, do as the Roman’s do” - hardly had any issues. My Filipina wife and many of her family and friends eat with their hands. More prevalent in the provinces or those raised in the provinces, especially i the Visayas. Usually if I am with my wife (and sometimes with step kids and step grandkids) I have no problems at all (unless I am driving, that is a nightmare). My main complaint with Filipinos in general is that they drop their litter anywhere. I find that disrespectful of their environment but also a bit stupid because when it rains heavily, as it usually does, that litter blocks drains and causes flooding.

The security guards did nothing of course because the hotel wants to rent out those hotel rooms so they let the guy put on his little show. I turned to a woman in the lobby next to me and told her that in my country, that little runt would have been picked up by security and thrown out on his ass in 2 seconds if he acted like that. It's sad to see how some people think their financial/social status or country of origin gives them license to treat Filipinos like dirt.

    I've been there twice and I couldn't agree more, on all counts. When you are there, it can be hard to figure out, but upon reflection, it is true. Additionally, the biggest compliment usually given to the Philippines is the strong family unit and ties, which is overwhelmingly true, however, family members can also do very strange, terrible things, that weighs against that same protocol. Things that are generally not common in western societies. Loud music and barking dogs all times of the day and night, reflects a distant spit-in-your-face attitude. No one complains, weird.

When I started to travel the world in my 20s and met more Filipinos, I find them so shallow and bigoted. They hate everything about themselves but their pride and ego is unmatched. The women there will do everything to marry a white or foreign men for their money and genes for babies. I understand this a common thread among many third world countries but I don’t see that in other southeast Asian countries. And the amount of scammers are on par with India and Nigeria. There is no culture. The Filipinos I met would always tell me they are Spanish defendants and more Latinos than Asians. I find their self-loathing super strange.

Nurses have to apply for permission to work part time outside the hospital, which could take some time to get approved. Thinking she only has 2 mnths left on her contract, she did not apply for permission. She got a ad hoc job administering covid vaccines on her off day. A pinoy nurse saw her at the vaccination centre and reported her to the hospital. The hospital threatened to terminate her contract unless she paid a $5k fine for breaking terms of her bond. Getting terminated will leave a black mark on her employment record and it would be difficult to get a job at other hospitals. She was doing part time work on her off day to support her mother who is a single parent. Wht did the pinoy nurse achieve from reporting my cousin ? Is she looking to get citizenship in my country ?

    I have 15 years experience of both visiting and living in the Philippines. And I can tell that the Philippines ain't changing for nothing and nobody. It helps to be able to jump on an airplane and spend 3 or 4 months throughout the year in other countries. Kind of mix things up and give yourself a break from those things you dislike about the Philippines.

    I can confirm, Im a Mexican and have worked shoulder to shoulder with philipinos for years now. Their youth is actually nice but veeery mentally numb, like, oblivious of reality. Not mean but pretty much slow, not too bad and I feel comfortable among them, knowing the teens wont betray me nor backstab me.
    Their adults and especially elders are the ones that... I dont appreciate that much, to say it gently.
    They are reeeally rude, they never say hi in the morning and actually they literally frown when they see you to the eyes, like, they have a normal expression and when they SEE you, they FROWN, like, proactively make a negative facial gesture with all their intention.
    And Its weird because they are waaay weaker than me, mentally and physically, and without wanting it I regularly exceed their collective capacities and performances with little effort, so theres no real point on playing a childish 'cold war' on me, when they are quite incompetent and completely reliant on their community, their unofficial ethnostate because as individuals in white countries they cant succeed alone, so their 'power' is in their collective hive strategy.

THE LUMPIA WAS SO BURNT IT WAS DARKER THAN MIDNIGHT. WAS BEYOND BURNT even JESUS wouldn't eat it at his last supper. I returned it and complained. The cashier lady looked at it and looked at me like a Carabao/deer in headlights.. then the guy who cooked it did the same but was even more perplexed. I said again, it's burned, can I get a new one?? .. they exchanged it without saying a WORD to me... And looked at me as if I was in the wrong and the burned lumpia was okay for me to consume.... What a joke.

This is why i told him to leave and not to stay in the province areas. He was set to come back to BGC but has to stay since he needs to get a moving truck to pick up the washer and deliver it to the residence. They got him big time. This is why I don't trust people here and have years of street smarts combined with my military service to not fall into that trap. In my 10 months not one person has tried that BS on me and I dare someone to. He will most likely be set back hundreds of dollars and who know if they will drain his pockets and he gets stuck here temporarily.

They are immoral fiends who would happily be raped by a cat if the price is right. When it comes to money they have no moral boundaries. They would happily fuck their 60 year old rich CEO Boss and destroy their family and marriage. I’ve seen this first hand. Their kids can also be horrendously rude. Men need to have respect for themselves and realise no women is worth that kid of abuse. They will happily dance provocatively with ex boyfriends I’m front of their partner while they secretly DM every male they know on social media and messaging apps. Just look at them on TikTok prostituting themselves to the world. These are married women or in long term relationships yet you Barry see them with their partner because they want to show they are available for the right price. Don’t get me wrong many are wonderful but many are cold, loveless opportunistic vultures.

    After 10 years of living in the Philippines I had to leave for my own sanity. I can only tolerate so many clusterf#cks. Moved to Thailand and life went much more smoothley. Less problems, no begging, better infrastructure, organized and better educated. One of the number one issues in the Philippines is that many Filipinos dont understand English that well but for some reason they will never tell you that they dont understand or ask to repeat your question. Instead they just pretend to understand and just tell you whatever to make themselves look smart. This is the reason why they mess up so many food orders or give you wrong directions. I guess lying and pretending to know something actually saves face in the culture then just being honest and saying i dont understand.

      Most times if they don't understand they just say "yes yes yes." Because they don't want to listen to understand. They listen to reply. The culture of dishonest harmony TRUMPS HONEST CONFLICT.
      Just last week went to the tailors to taper and hem dress pants. 800 PHP job. More expensive than normal mall tailors.... She told me "yes yes yes sir and no worries sir.". But upon picking up my dress pants she ended up taking short cuts and now its something I can't even wear NOR repair.

Before she arrives here, I told her there's a Filipino church not far from where I live so she can go there and meet people from her country. She angrily stared at me. When I insisted she got upset. I did not understand why, but now I do. Here's an example that just popped in my mind: About 4 months ago, she was in a nursing internship program at St-Mary's hospital. There was only ONE Filipino guy working there as a caregiver. My wife told me about him. Dude was the typical evil and insecure Filipino! He was always trying to make my wife resigning telling her it's a bad job she's doing, he tried to scam her asking her money saying he works for an investment company, he's super rich and has a $7000 Husky dog, has a bunch of kids with different women but it's ok since he's rich, and all that stuff. My wife told me that other employees can't stand that guy. He only acts like this with other Filipinos because most are gullible. He knows that if he acts like this with white people, they will make fun of him.

      Agree 100 percent. My sister experienced it a few times while shopping at the base stores in Okinawa bc she looks like a Filipina even though she's half Japanese. They are more prone to bullying their own fellowman especially if they can sense that the person is not as self-assured or self-assertive. I encountered a few in nursing school and more at my nursing job. ( Don't get me wrong. There were nice ones, too.) They project their lack of self-confidence onto others that they can bully. My Peruvian best classmate who was overweight was constantly bullied and I reprimanded that Filipina. After several months of non-contact, that Filipina called me on the phone just to ask if my friend already took the board exam and if she passed. She didn't ask about me! lol They get competitive for no reason and they always compare themselves to others bc they are jealous, sick people. It makes them feel good to ruin anybody who is better than them.
      My ex-husband's brother was an accomplished doctor in Summerlin, Las Vegas. He fell in love with a successful financial officer who was Italian. The Filipino community in Vegas trashed and bullied her relentlessly and ruined her reputation bc they insisted that he should marry another Filipina. My ex-SIL resorted to closing her business bc of all the bullying and she is now managing her husband's dermatology clinic in Summerlin.
