    Video on the Philippines

    A controversial video......is he completely out of order.....

    "This is a video from an American staying in Cebu sharing some reasons why he hates the Philippines".

    2nd video down.

    Note. The video contains swearing so if you are under 18 or dont want to hear then proceed no further.

    He is out of order of course, for the overtly negative approach and an excess of expletives.......

    Imagine, since you watched it, it is no longer viewable - removed by user evidently.

    Yes, what a plonka, (for want of a stronger description) the yanks have such high opinons of 'their' own country and anything that isn't the same as 'back home' is wrong (in their opinion) I worked with mostly Americans when I was in Saudi and they were just the same. They used to say 'this sucks, you can't do this...you can't do that' but then when you say to them, hang on, you are not in the USA now, they get all fired up and pee'd off.

    Did they also say goddam and then spit into a polystyrene cup?

    I first came across some good old rednecks in Kuwait. It was an education.

    I've watched the video before the user removed it..anyway, if he hated the Philippines so much, why did he let himself stay there for 3 & 1/2 years as he said?! I think this guy just needed some attention..

    Good thing the Americans I've worked with before were never like that guy! They kept on coming back to Manila like 3x or 4x a year ..although we hated that coz more stress and pressure for us.. We always thought they made business trips an excuse to shop and shop and shop in Greenhills!

    Yes. My wife saw it on Facebook about an hour or so ago and alerted me to it.

    To be honest, although I watched the video clip I only managed half and then got bored with the content and irritated with the numpty
    I was surprised he'd lived there for 3 years. With that kind of attitude I doubt he could make a success of life anywhere. Included USA

    Most countries I've lived in have neither been paradise nor hell. Life is what you make of it.

    I have to totally agree with you there Steve.
    I used to do some part-time work in Japan called 'Hello' work. Just meeting, greeting and showing around westerners. Eventually I gave up on just one group of visitors. No need to say eh? Dreadful attitude, no GMRC at all.

    They seem to display those same rude and negative behaviours wherever they go.

    Im a fililipino but I strongly agree with this guys. I am pissed of these comments complaining about what he is saying. That is our problem. WE DO NOT OPEN OUR MINDS ON OPINIONS THAT WILL HELP US IMPROVE OUR COUNTRY. I love Philippines but these things are true. LET US JUST BE OPEN MINDED. only smart people will understand this video and small minded Filipinos will just complain. I hate how TAONG BAYAN behaves today.
    Can we send this to Mr. Presidents office? I tried but can't post the video, if you know how please do..... Mr Aquino please start working on these issues not on that stupid empeachment trial. We have to prove them wrong... it might take years but we can start now

    Yes. Thats the one. Thought he had removed it....

    Seemingly he also made one on 20 reasons why he loves the Philippines.

    ABS CBN's bandila,late night news programme featured an edited snip of the video tonight. The DOT and Presidential spokespersons commented. Apparently this guy is a student at the academy of film making in Cebu. His comment was that he was trying to forge change and was not running the country down.
    Cant find a link on the Bandila site
