if dubai was able to do it, and now libya, why can't we?

ask not what your country can do for you but rather ask what you can do for your country. whining will not get us anywhere...

ang original post kay comparing ourselves against Dubai and Libya..
ofcourse we cant beat them coz they have the precious OIL to export and sale.. common sense lang, una may producto nato na kusog ang halin? human resource only!?

comparing to SIngapore is also not valid, SIngapore IS A CITY STATE, the CITY is the COUNTRY and Philippines is an archipelago composed of 7100 islands, managing these islands are hard, try mo adto ug mga lugar na dli maabot ug airplane para kasabot mo..

Comparing to Japan and S.Korea!?.. dra na ta mag daog, perhaps ang difference kay ang PEOPLE

take a note of these:
- disciplinado kaayu ang mga tao sa JAPAN,
- they follow LAWS, and are afraid and gor big respect to the authorities!
- they follow even the simplest traffic rules
- kugihan mo asenso sa work and sa negosyo
- They mind there own business, dli cla tsismoso
- DILI cla manghilabot sa Politics
matud pa nila "let the politician handle politics"..
Abi ninyu dli gubot ang politics sa Japan or S.Korea? nganong asenso man kaayu cla?
Private TECH companies focus on their business, students focused on their studies,
workers focused on their job, jobless looks for job or starts their own business.
-wise cla mo gunit ug kwarta, ang mga pinoy? ambot nalang "they spent more than they earned"
example: kinsay empleyado dri na mo earn ug 20k-30k na sweldo na bago lang nipalt ug PSP,PS3 or even DLSR? unsaon man na nninyu inyung gipalit 5 years from now naa pa ba nay gamit, specially kng naa na pd bagong version mogawas?

evidently, dli mo asenso ang Pilipinas because of one trait na GIPAKITA ninyu dri sa istorya.net and is visible dri sa POLITICS section..

very well said....
agree jud ko ani..
simple raman unta kaayo nga topic ang gistart sa TS, simple ra kaayo ang argument...
ang ubang reply wala diri.. wala didto... (just my opinion lang pud ni... kay we all have different observations and opinions)
klaro kaayo ang article gireference sa TS...
.. unsay common between dubai and libya?... desierto nga giconvert... gi develop... gipangbutangan ug mga hi rise infrastructure...

now... why cant we do it like them?... kay wala man tay desierto... but thats secondary... the "major major" reason is wala jud tay oil nga ika pa attract ug investors...



my two cents lang pud....

[masakiton]

unsa mai naa anang city state? salig kai gamay dili nalang pud nato tan awon gi unsa nila pag ansenso... ni asenso man gali sila nga limited land ug no resources.. declining population.. ka daghanan dili degree holder (college graduate) ... ang typical singaporean reclamador.. dagha pilian ug trabaho.. dili ganahan mo overtime..

ang government nangita ug paagi aron maka cope up sa need sa man power ug mo.hatag ug trabaho sa mga pilian nga singaporean... maski senyor citizen trabaho pa gali tig limpyo ug kan anan.

bottomline ... dako jud ug effect kung unsa ka competent ang nag manage sa isa ka nasud

guys if we want change in our country i think we must start with ourselves.. we should be aware to ourselves... with should know our status... we must not pretend, be realistic!! know what are you living for... lets be wise..... respect.... and in that sense, hope to encourage others by doing it.... find happiness... and happiness to yourself could encourage others to find for their happiness too.. and in that state attitudes will come out.. people will be more hardworking, gaining for what they are living for....

[Romeojin]

kaya man nato, if only we had a successive admins concentrated on our economy like sa singapore and korea. limited man gyud ang budget and dili bya kaayo ta attractive sa foreign investors.

Arrogant man, I don't think you know the situation in Dubai .. If their wealth relies on oil, wala unta mga Pinoy nga gipapa-uli pag recession..

Yea I think insulto jud ni sa mga arabo didto sa dubai. Oil contributes to their wealth but their economy is now diversified and they earn income from multiple sources including tourism. The sad part of this is that the Philippines has more naturally beautiful locations than Dubai, all their tourism is going to man-made locations that can't rival our natural beaches and geography. The same can be said of Malaysia, which in my opinion is not as beautiful as the Philippines either. The difference is that we have no intelligent leaders who know how to capitalize on our strengths. We should be capable of being at least as rich as the Bahamas.

If we go with the attitude that we are poor because we have no oil like these other countries, then that means we accept that the Philippines will never be rich because we will never have as much oil as those countries. But as I said before, we have oil here! Has it made a difference in the local communities in palawan? Even if we were sitting on a mountain pile of diamonds we would still be a poor country because of mismanagement.

[Tirong-say]

We should start first in overhauling the peace and order, getting rid of too much politicking, and getting rid of rampant corruption, and perhaps if realized we can even surpass Dubai.
