This is true maybe because this is an advertising video for tourism but there are more positive than negative in the philippines. Behind this beauty there are a lot of poor filipinos but most poor filipinos they are the one who is most willing to give/help other people whatever your race is.

Hi! Good day dude. You said "they show you only the best places. There are many not-so-good places as well." 110% I agree to that. I can also say that I am not proud of our leaders.They simply don't have balls to lead the people. They are so afraid of the Catholics. This religion who is always intervening the government causes a lot of problems in the country. You see we are 110m now. And partly because of the Catholics. Population education were not taught at school or community. Simply because the Catholics blocked the idea. And the huge example of bad results of that were shown during the pandemic. The government simply can not sustained to support the people because of the magnitude of the population. In this country there are so much gay people next to Thailand. So much street children. And so forth. I don't know if you get my point. But just imagine what happen when 30m people buy basic needs. Prices will go up because of the demand. And the result of high prices is people will slow down spending. The end result is inflation will be double digit. That's the bad side of to much population growth. For now you can enjoy fresh cheap food available at your door step every morning. But believe me it will not last long. So save whatever you can save.

@@emanarroyo7143 I understand, of course, and know how much a small island chain, like the Philippines, can be over populated. There is no real places to expand, so either you get Filipino's who are "forced" to leave the country, for jobs or whatever, or you get overcrowded cities. Overcrowded cities lead to less jobs, higher prices, and far more basura (trash). And since the trash service is very limited, you get areas where it just piles up, which is HIGHLY unsanitary and germ-filled. Of course, the WORST thing is throwing, or dumping, trash into the ocean or rivers. That is simply an awful, unthinking thing to do. I try not to get into religious or political debates, so I'll skip that part.

I totally agree with you. I was born & raised there & most of these places are beautiful but i haven’t seen or visit most of them. Now that i am earning dollar & quite saved much, i can travel back home & see most of these nice places. Only problem is, i do not have very many relatives left there & if i do, i do not want to impose. I have few friends here in the US who spend lots of time home after retirement here coz they still ha ve lots of relatives there to take them around. Of course at their expense spending dollars that u can stretch far coz $1 is 100 pesos exchange now. But my other problem is my heart, i had a stroke twice now & if i get an attack there, i will probably come back here to my family in a box. Scary just a thought of it. I wish i do not have heart problem. Oh well…

You speak the truth base on your experience in the Philippines, I'm a Filipino and live here in Brazil and this country is nothing compared to the Philippines , lots of happiness all around , it's paradise. The Brazilian culture is far different on what you have Bro out there. I missed my beloved country.
