I saw this first hand in Bernabe Compound in Las Pinas City
You are trying to paint a picture that other pinoys dont mind the noise well i totally disagree
Keeping one's noise down is about common decency and respecting other people around you and that is not
immune from the Pinoy culture

The reason why we are seen as snobbish is because some people there envy our wealth
Yes i had to keep isolated sometimes because i did not want anything stolen

As someone else pointed out i see nothing appealing about living in some rat infested barangy where even if you sneeze it could be heard by 5 other households

I put it to you = our minimum standards when it comes to living conditions are much higher than the average barangy there

I like the Philippines and the people there as well but it winds me up when some people lose touch with the real reality of what it is like living in a normal barangy
If you took the time and read through some of my previous posts, you might realize there are times i do have a moan about the Philippines. Most of the time i do think everything is fantastic that is why we live here.

We live in a normally barangay and it is not rat infested!

I know roughly how long Brian, Mark and Michael have spent living in the Philippines. We don't always agree but nothing wrong with them giving their opinion. How long have you actually spent living in the Philippines?
