the Philippines is a nation of dysfunctional people.. i simply agree..

AGREE!! hehehe

what we must do is, change Cebu first. then the whole will see us as an example that must be followed. let us not be so negative of the Filipino people, cause the only thing they need is a proper plan and guidance. In my opinion anyways.

Living the Rich Life

It can only happen if every Filipino rolls up his sleeves and works to realize a vision. That means doing a bit more than wearing yellow and waving the flag or criticizing and calling out every weakness of government. Let us harness our energy into constructive action and be relentless advocates. Help save the environment. Demand swift justice. Do not tolerate the smallest act of corruption. Best Pinas only happens with Best Pinoys! That is People Power.


We love to complain but at times we don't do our part. I'm still hoping for a brighter future for us.

love this statement ^_^

i think it would be easier to do if we are united as one people with one identity working feverishly for one goal and that is to improve the whole lot of the Philippines and the Filipinos...cgro when that time happens our first statements will be like "I'm a Filipino' before we say 'I'm a Cebuano'

and i do hope dili makalimtan sa bag-ong tubo what happened during the Marcos Dictatorship. Amnesia stay away!

This is an interesting topic and it is interesting to know that Philippines was mentioned by Lee Kuan Yew in his autobiography.

Personally, the fact that Lee Kuan Yew talked about the Philippines, it shows that he cares. He sees the potential.

Let's not waste this potential.

Something had gone seriously wrong. Millions of Filipino men and women had to leave their country for jobs abroad beneath their level of education. Filipino professionals… are as good as our own. Indeed, their architects, artists, and musicians are more artistic and creative than ours… The difference lies in the culture of the Filipino people. It is a soft, forgiving culture. Only in the Philippines could a leader like Ferdinand Marcos, who pillaged his country for over 20 years, still be considered for a national burial. Insignificant amounts of the loot have been recovered, yet his wife and children were allowed to return and engage in politics.

I totally agree on this one... it's only up to us if we want to surpass other nations rather than whining over such trivial stuffs and putting the blame on people in power alone... besides a one-man's campaign to do good for our country will definitely go in vain if we simply breathe in apathy...
