Grateful for what exactly? Europeans, Chinese, Japanese and so on, would have already built entire towns if they had to live like those people, no matter how poor they are... I don't feel sad or sorry for these people. They have SO MANY resources there, with hard work and time, they could build entire civilization and town... Back in 2013 or 2014, in Japan 3 whole towns were completely flattened with ground, there was not a single building left standing for hundreds of miles, the whole thing looked like a movie, there were over a 100,000 buildings destroyed - BUT GUESS WHAT?! - all the people there, over 95,000 people, including over 20,000 people from other towns around, got together and IN JUST TWO YEARS, they completely cleared out hundreds of miles of ground to build new foundations for new buildings and houses and by the end of 2017, in just 3-4 years, they have completely rebuilt over 98,000 buildings and homes, roads, walkways, stores and so on and so forth... ALL from nothing! Yeah... Same story with earthquakes and other natural disasters that happened over the past 400 years in China, Japan, Greece, Italy, Spain, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Croatia and many, many other countries... Back when there was no media, internet or outside help... All these countries, all these different people rebuilt ENTIRE CITIES AND CIVILIZATIONS down from quite literally nothing! Meanwhile you have people like these in Philippines, India or Africa... Watching these people is like watching those people in Africa, sitting on so many resources they could easily build entire towns, entire civilizations... And yet they live worse than Europeans did during bronze age in 3,000 BC and are waiting for someone else (usually Europeans) to help them because they are too lazy and too stupid to help themselves.

The Philippines is supposed to be one of the world's richest countries, but it suffers from abject poverty due to how the rest of the world regards it. I visited in 2012 and observed this experience firsthand, as well as the rich side of life. It's completely distinct universes. I've also visited a number of Southeast Asian countries, and the conditions in some of them are similar, which is a heartbreaking shame. I understand that many people throughout the world live in abysmal poverty and are homeless through no fault of their own, but this is absolutely heartbreaking.

Ephesians‬ ‭6:10‭-‬18 says, Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints. The bible is no old book. You have to really let Christ open your eyes; to see the world in shambles. Many people say it's a religion to lock up people in chains, and say it's a rule book.. why? Because people hate hearing the truth, it hurts their flesh, it's hurts their pride, it's exposes on what things have they done..people love this world so much, s*x, money, power, women, supercars.. things of this world. Still trying to find something that can fill that emptiness in your heart. You can't find that in this world.. only in Christ, the bible is no chains, it's a chainbreaker. Breaking your sins into pieces... Repent now, and turn back to the true Lord only.. God bless. 😊😊

Then it was nowhere near as bad as the poverty shown in this video. Begs the question as to where’s the Health Dept, Commerce people, politicians who should be working to get international business established, and schools that can teach marketable skills. I found the Philippine people to be kind, generous, family oriented, and not have the gang violence we see in a lot of Latin American countries. I pray that there’ll be some light in the future for these people. What I see here is disgraceful.

Historically there has always been communities living on the water in the Philippines for centuries. Before, such villages were made entirely of bamboo, but in modern times scraps of plastic,metal , plywood, concrete, and other modern man-made materials make up the construction giving the ambience that of a discord of architecture and a look of poverty. Here is a close thriving , caring community, no one looks starved and no one looks miserable or unhealthy . It is a simple fishing life of families of friends and colleagues. Wealth and hapiness is a very relative thing. Something the West cannot understand.

They don't know how to live in the moment and enjoy the things that do matter.

As a Filipino, you should look more into the root causes of this poverty in our past. Many vloggers dwell into poverty in the Philippines but fail completely in delving into the root causes of this poverty. Our country was very rich even before the Spaniards came. You should be crying for justice at what Spain, America and Japan did to our country.

@aerahsanchez7166 Ай бұрын

Let's speak honestly. Compared to developed or emerging nations, the Philippines has far higher levels and wider distribution of poverty. In those countries, you don't see babies rolling around on the streets. The government and individuals in that area are not doing enough to improve the lives of their fellow Filipinos who are less fortunate, and the issue has gotten worse.

I lived in Philippines for three years (Mindanao mostly) after leaving active duty USMC. After living in Okinawa for four years, year in China afterward, 3 years in the middle east, 1 year homeless in NY city, and raised in a crime ridden predominantly poor black/urban area while growing up (as a white person). Now in an upper class gated suburb in America... My perspective is wherever you go, there you are. We can adapt to situations faster than we realize and discrimination is a valueable tool for survival. Good and evil are everywhere! May you stay safe on your journey in this world 🌎 🙏 ✨️ ❤️

We can say that it's horrible and yes, a lotta things are BUT the tight-knit communities, the energy, the unification and the family orientation is something that cannot be replaced in a lotta families that are "well-off" or middle class. Public schools give children access to see poverty, alcohol and drug abuse as well depending on what city you're in. We, who are well-off, might see just the down side of this but there's a lotta ppl who would trade their lives to have what these "poor" people have.

As someone who grew up in the tough neighborhoods of Miami and has lived in the Philippines for 17 years, I find it hard to feel empathy for these people. The government has even offered them housing, but many refuse it. It seems that they prefer to live in such conditions, often turning to drugs, alcohol, and a lifestyle that lacks ambition. They do nothing to change their situation. I can speak from personal experience-I was once addicted to various drugs and even found myself homeless. But I had to make a choice to improve my life, to seek something better. These individuals, however, don't seem to want that. Just look at the way they throw trash everywhere, showing a lack of respect for themselves and their surroundings. The reality is, you can’t help someone who doesn’t want to help themselves. If you try to assist them, they’ll keep taking and taking, and when you stop giving, they become upset. Real change has to come from within, and unless they make the decision to want better for themselves, no amount of external help will make a difference.
