I love how the couple think about some sort of “manifest destiny” that they have, due to being born to rich families and being “educated”.
Speaking as a foreigner who lived in the Philippines for most of my life; this is exactly the reason why the Philippines have a great divide between groups of people. Most of the rich acquire their wealth due to illicit means, and because they know they can’t lose that with the lack of ability to gain it back legitimately, they will go through any length to protect it. Some even “invest” in going overseas, bringing along their pillage. The poor ger poorer, because the decadent will not stop to help, but will continue to squeeze the countries’ riches and resources to their benefit until the last drop, and then run away.
Sad, but personally I think it will never be solved. The unscrupulous will not stop being corrupt and selfish in order to fund their ironic lifestyles; and the meek will always allow themselves to be used and abused in order to survive and because they are prevented to know better.
THE REASON WHY PHILIPINO PEOPLE WORK ABOAD IS BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT SCREWED EVERYONE ELSE OVER AND THE MAJORITY OF PROFITS ONLY GO BACK TO THE RICH. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE POOR IN THE PHILIPPINES. HEALTH EDUCATION COSTS A FORTUNE IN THE PHILIPPINES AND MANY CANNOT AFFORD BASIC COSTS. MOST WORK ABROAD TO PAY FOR FAMILY BACK HOME.
It's so sad (and heroic) that that Filipino man had to be separated from his family, and they from him. So sad. The world's financial inequity is truly one of our greatest problems (for the Human Race!)
Wow, what a very comprehensive 3-part docu of the Philippines! I love it!The TABO… I didn't know it would seem funny when you describe how to use it to foreigners (one hand holds the tabo while the other washesthe butt) haha… Anyway, more and more average Filipinos these days use bidets, and aside from washing, many also wipe after.
Being a university teacher in region 1 (ilocos region) can get you a salary of between 35k-200k per months and i have a grand father that taught in the university i mentioned and managed to get a salary of 120k pesos per month but i'm not sure if thats considered rich cuz we live in a singlr story house that is about 345square meters and its small compared to a upper-midle class despite the salary and my grand mother also had a 100k peso salary so both of them would've made 225k pesos a month combined
this is just a very minor observation. The name of the country is Philippines and not "The Philippines". i noticed that the narrator always refers to "the Philippines" instead of just saying Philippines. People dont' refer to China, as "The China" or Japan, "The Japan", or Thailand, "The Thailand" and etc, etc. Get it? So please, delete the word "The" when referring to this beautiful country, Philippines.
Going abroad is to escape from poverty.Low salary,pension,lack of job,age discrimination,et.in Phil's.Govt.and prevate prefer them abroad to gain currencies remittance

THE WEST ARE RACIST TOWARDS EDUCATED PEOPLE FROM ASIA. THEY ONLY WANT WESTERNERS RUNNING THE BUSINESS WHILE LOCAL HARDLY EVER GET MANAGEMENT JOBS.

Philippines middle-class live a better life than Chinese middle-class!
Their population is well over 100m. They dont count the people without a birth certificate.
A dish washer is a middle class item. Since phillipines has no middle class someone would only have it as a novelty

Why is the dog tied up?
Education is free but poverty makes them stop in schooling
Finally a video about the Philippines that shows the truth there instead of the vloggers that only show the nice areas
I’ve met many Philippinos in Singapore and they’re kind and friendly people.
