unya bro naa interview from someone there mao ni iyang sulti...

"People are generally happy here because they are very satisfied with very little," he told The Guardian. "This is not a consumer-driven society. Life here is about community and family and goodwill to other people. It's a place where you don't worry too much. The only things we fear are cyclones or earthquakes." AFP

Filipinos contented

Thats why Filipinos are leaving the country by the droves? Practically in almost every corner in the world there is a Filipino working as a domestic helper? Look at Lebanon. Lebanon may have enjoyed relative peace the last 10 years, but like what is happening now, Lebanon was a war torn country more than a decade ago... Yet according to stats there are 30,000 Filipinos in Lebanon of which 8,000 are "domestic helpers". If Filipinos are so happy and contented then why leave?

"HAPPY" filipinos leaving the country just to endure this---> http://www.sunstar.com.ph/static/man...employers.html


Filipinos emotionally and financially happy?? Again why are Filipinos leaving the country by the millions if Filipinos are "financially happy"? Do you think you can be "emotionally happy" when you are halfway around the world to have a relatively low paying job and serve an abusive master??

This survery reeks with BS.... No wonder this survey is practically unknown and its only us who is searching for "positive" things about the the Philippines found it...

Look at where Gloria was a couple of days ago...She was in Libya..... What did they talk about

i agree with your statement.

I think I know why we are the happiest people because there is no more misery that can be thrown at us. Why? because we already have them all. The absence of misery is happiness. Simple logic.

we love to laugh.. that is one trait that they could never remove from us..

and we also love fiestas..hapit gud kada adlaw naay pista sa pilipinas..

[wak_wak]

di naman ni ika tinga coz ang pinoy even unsa pa ang problema happy lang gihapon, mao sad ng di mu improve ang pilipinas kay contento na sa ila situation..

kung naa pay winter dire, possible lahi jud ang mind setting sa pinoy.

sa mga nasyon nga naay winter, di jud pwede nga di molihok ang mga tao kay mamatay sa kagutom ug sa kabugnaw.

in short, grabe ka tapulan ang pinoy - mau na ang equivalent sa pagkacontento sa negative sense.
