Eto ang mga problema ng pinas kaya konti lang ang mga foreign tourists at hindi sila nagtatagal sa ating bansa: 1. Rampant Corruption in government and public. 2. Very very very few modern infrastructures. 3. No modern transportation 4. No modern airport 4. Mahina or walang internet 5. Nawawalan ng kuryente (brownout) 5. Mahina or nawawalan or walang tubig 6. Nakawan at kikilan sa NAIA airport 7. EXPENSIVE accomodations 8. Maraming patayan, kriminal, nakawan, mandurukot, snatchers, kidnappers , drug addicts at mga pushers 9. Mga ganid na taxi at tricycle drivers over-charging/scamming foreign tourists 10. Mga basura or litters sa kalye at mga bangketa. Mga pinoy wala talagang disiplina. Kahit saan tayo nagtatapon ng mga basura/ litters natin. 11. Pati sa mga beach, dagat, gubat at bundok may mga basura din..mga plastic bottles, plastik supot, wrappers at kung ano ano pang mga litter/garbage. 12. Mga illegal vendors sa kalsada/bangketa, may vendor din sa gitna ng badian canyon, panglao sandbar at mga bangkang vendor sa dagat ng el nido at coron. Kaya madumi at maraming mga basura sa ating mga kapaligiran at kalikasan. MAGTINDA KAYO SA TAMANG LUGAR. 13. Illegal squatters, street dwellers and beggars everywhere, particularly children asking money from foreigners. Tapos sasabihin natin "Its more fun in the Phlippines" ??? Nakakahiya ! Tourism will boost our local economy kasi foreigners spend money in our country which helps our local business to earn more. The local and national government MUST do something to solve/fix these problems.

@@junlab2612 I totally agree…. The Philippines as a home base, to me, makes sense.

Smart😂

@@brutallygwapo9597 I hear you…. But surprisingly As of the 2020 census, the population of the Philippines is approximately 109 million. In contrast, there are about 78,396 foreign expats residing in the country.

I strongly agree

Hahaha patawa ka, Sa US ka nakatira pero proud ka sa pinas...walk your talk..umuwi ka na ng pinas !

@@schrodinger3467 Being a person that only speaks one language, I totally agree with you!

@@ParaMagic-l9f Thank you for the kind words…. One of the things I have noticed is that as my interest in moving abroad has lead me to KZbin, I have watched these vloggers. They all have unique perspectives and stories about their experiences. I also noticed that there are a lot of views on their episodes. I am hoping to develop a community where everyone can come together and pontificate about these videos. Introduce live chats and groups in all aspects of the Expat process, experience, and mutually help others. The term an aggregate channel is exactly what I am hoping for, and looking forward to building something up. There are plenty of resources, and ever changing information that needs to be discussed and shared. I look forward to what lays ahead. Salamat po…..🙏🏼

@jackyjelai Yes we can tell from that post how humble you are, by telling everyone that your group is humble..

Me too even endo majority are Muslims but it feels like Indonesian and pilipinos are same blood ❤

@ there are many issues within the Philippines, as with any country. I do feel your pain about the things that could easily be changed for the better though. I know that if more people felt as you do, they might be able to begin making and facilitating these changes. Starting off with neighborhoods, barangays electing Captains to administer localized cleanups and things. Changes happen when you bring people onboard and work towards change. But that is hard, when this is all they know.

Magingat sa MSG.dahil matindi maglagay ng vetsin

True. - a Filipino

@@bluewolf4789 If we use that logic, Thailand food should be sweeter than Filipino food since Thailand sits at Top 10 largest sugar producers in the world. But Thai food isn't sweeter than Filipino food. Compare the dishes between Thailand and Philippines, you will find that Filipino cuisine is more fatty, oily, sugary, salty, using less fruit and vegetables. This is also always the complaint by foreign tourists if you see travel vlogs, especially vegan/vegetarians. Philippine's has both obesity problem due to obsession of fast food to those who can afford it, and malnutrition problem among those who can't afford, due to either no food to eat or there is food to eat but being lower quality when it comes to nutrition. Malnutrition isn't only lack of food but also lack of high quality ingredients packed with a variety of nutrients such as vitamins and minerals and not just sugar, carbs, and fat. Example, only eating white rice and fried meat is less nutritious compared to someone eating kamote and leafy greens for breakfast. Also compare some known brands like Milo and their nutritional facts in different countries, you will find that a lot of the Filipino counterparts (not all) have higher sugar content per serving.

@@bluewolf4789 it does depend on the person… but Filipinos love sweet

Filipino food isn't only found in Metro Manila! Our provinces had better and healthier options. Filipino food is so diverse.

@@TitB1199 I never thought of him as “snakey”, what do you know?? lol

Welcome aboard!

Yes! Thank you!

That it has, but surprisingly, there are a lot of people that still anticipate in hearing someone else's opinion on the subject.

Thank you!!!

I agree....

So very true!!! Thank you for your input.

You can get many different perspectives from watching these videos, and it a good way to get your bearings straight, but honestly you need to actually go and see for yourself!! Taking several trips to the areas you find most appealing. I will be finding many more videos on all these places, and doing some vlogging on my trips.

That seems to be the with him... He seems to have his following, they either like him, or really dislike him!!

I am... but like I say, I'm too young to collect my pension and Social Security, and I do not have the investments that could sustain me. I am looking at various remote jobs, income streams, and we then shall see!!

there are definitely areas in the Philippines where they have pollution and garbage issues.....

I spent a week in Manila and surrounding suburbs back in 2011. I pretty much found it very similar to Bangkok, with notable cultural exceptions of course. Back then, the infrastructure was a bit behind Bangkok. Other than the food, the other very noticeable difference was the pollution everywhere. The waterways were incredibly filthy as I recall. In my opinion,, the fact that Thailand has retained its rich cultural history by not succumbing to imperialism, as so many countries have, is the reason Thailand has a more robust tourism sector, thus better infrastructure. King Bhumibol Adulyade's reign of 50 years (correction 70 years), who died about 7 years ago, did some amazing things for Thailand.

Just like the rest of the othe SEA countries. Lol

Thankfully most will not follow through, and the more I talk with people, the more I get a sense that everyone has a different opinion of where and why. But you not only have been in Thailand, but have had the experiences of going throughout most of South East Asia, and have found your home. Thank you for your input.... I hope to chat with you more sometime, I think your experience could be very insightful!

@@TheExpatReview I'm at the George Carlin stage of life... lol. As you may have gathered in my OP, I'm a bit cynical now towards my fellow countrymen. I've found real joy stepping out of the American bubble. It's a real disappointment to learn the Truth of, the history of, American hegemony on this planet. I've also lived in the United Arab Emirates - 2 years in Dubai and Abu Dhabi - 3 years in Kurdistan, Iraq, and 4 years in Ukraine. No... never been in miliary... I'm not much of an order follower. Took my Paramedic skills globally back in 2010, it's been a wild ride.

That very well may be true, but you do have to say, that your former country is very beautiful, and the people still living there are very good people. Thank you for your input!!1

Well today will be the 4th video in 4 days... but I am enjoying making these. So Hopefully I will get better!
