Very well said Graham
Louis, i find your comments disrespectful and arrogant. If your attitude was like that when you visited the Philippines i am surprised that anybody even gave you the time of day.
Yes there are some problems in the Philippines but the good points far outweigh the bad in my opinion. No electricity for 2 hours. Wow what a major problem!
Some things you see in the Philippines are similar to what you might have seen 50 years ago in the UK. Neighbors who actually talk to each other and help when they can. Is that a bad thing?
Some of the friendliest and most hospitable people in the world are found in the Philippines.
