Yes, we know there's poverty, slums, war etc etc but surely at least part of the programme could have shown some positive aspects of the country.
It repeatedly made the point about the Philippines being 7000 islands but showed very little of the best of them. As has been mentioned, what about the stunning natural features of Palawan, the underground river, the fantastic diving, Tubbataha reef- also listed as one of the greatest wonders of the world? What about the colourful Sinulog festival? The beaches? The spirit if the Filipino people?
What's on next week? a guide to the drug dens, ganglands and sewers of Britain?
