Mr. webTV Idiot,

It's really irrelevant what you think about the Philippines and we Filipinos. It is after all our culture and habits good or bad and I would suggest if you don't like them or if they disturb you than perhaps you shouldn't visit the Philippines.

You whine and complain, you belittle and ridicule, but yet you come here to a Filipino news group and visit the Philippines and in some cases marry a Philippine national. Yet, all you can do is write about the things that you saw that you dislike or find objectionable.

Its obvious that the problem is not with the Philippines or Filipinos it's with you and your thought patterns.

By your way of thinking the following is true;

"Americans [some] don't wash there ass after defecating, they simply wipe there anus with a paper napkin; now we all know unless you wash you don't remove everything you simply spread it and since the "typical" Anglo has a hairy ass the defecated waste matter is spread gingerly about. Therefore we can surmise; Americans are dirty with poor hygiene and they smell like crap."



Next time you shake someone's had ask yourself, did he wash his hands after wiping his nasty ass with a napkin?

I Miss My Philippines

I miss waking up early in the morning to the sounds of roosters crowing, the time in the morning when the temperature is mild and the sun is just starting to break. I miss strolling down the street to the street vendor who sells coffee by the side of the road I miss leaning against the buildings downtown in Tagblarian, Bohol sipping hot coffee and watching the people pass by and the smell of fresh made pandsal coming from the bakery. I miss the UBE lady who sells fresh UBE sticky rice outside the wet market.

I miss..... My Philippines...... I want to go home.....

I HATE THESE PEOPLE

My response;

Its amazing to me to read posts by people who come to SCF and have so much bad to say about the Philippines and Filipinos. These are people who really know nothing about the Philippines, our people or culture. In some cases they are even coconuts living in other countries.

They talk through their asses thinking they know about the Philippines because they visited there or because they are married to a pinay/pinoy. They think they know because they read this or that about the Philippines or from what they see on TV or what a friend told them.

You people don't know squat about the Philippines, our people and our culture and you can't because you are not a Filipino or haven't lived there in our environment. So everything you say means absolutely nothing.

So what if people in the Pinas talk bad about our government or the conditions. That happens in every country. So what if Filipinos want to live or work abroad so they can have a better life, It means nothing.

Even if a Filipino lives and works abroad very few would say they don't love the Philippines. I really wish there were some way that you could see the Philippines through the eyes of a true Filipino, and then you would see the good and the beauty of the Philippines, its people and its culture.

It's too bad that most of you are too shallow to look beyond the bad, beyond the poverty and beyond what the media shows you. It's too bad that all you can do is be counter productive and so high on your own good fortune and life. It's too bad all you can do is flap you useless lips about something you know nothing about.

National Philippine Treasures

Last March when I went back home we decided to drive from Manila to Bicol. We made allot of stops along the way, orchard ranches, roadside eatery's, etc.. One place we stopped at was called Villa Escudero.

It seems Villa Escudero is a coconut plantation and a resort and that one of the original owners Mr. and Mrs. Don Secured were archeologists and collectors of artifacts; some of which are Filipino historic artifacts.

There is what they call a museum you can tour there and view allot of their collection. I was shocked to see things that I would consider National Philippine treasures; Original writings,among them some by Jose Rizal.

Although I felt fortunate to be able to view these treasures I couldn't help but wonder why these items are not in the hands of our National Museum where they could properly be cared for and preserved. Villa Escudero's Museum has no climate control and none of the things in there are in vacuum sealed cases or even sealed cases to protect them. The papers and pictures, cloths and linen are deteriorating.

It will be a shame that our future generations will have lost these treasures because they remain in "private" hands and collections that are not being cared for or preserved the way they should.
