The good thing is that they are happy even when they are struggling. They are strong and resilient people. I wish life was more fair and equal for every one on this planet. Keep up the good work Chris, people like you makes a difference 👍🙏💙🇵🇭

[@ronfischer646]

I watch a Video like this Chris and it makes me feel so thankful I was born and raised in the USA I have been to the Philippines and seen this poverty in Manila and other places. My heart goes out to these people wish I could help them all but not feasable they are happy people God Bless them all. Thanks for the Videos Chris best regards to you and your family.

[@spencerhowell7917]

Poor folks .. if I was there id get the tools out and get the place fixed up so it's fit for habitation. People should not be living in those conditions

[@CFNUN]

Ref light in these places, there is a way that uses plastic bottles, if a hole is cut in the corrugated sheet that a bottle can be put through and the hole made waterproof, A litre bottle of water with a little bleach to stop it going green, half in, half out of the roof will be equivalent to a 60 watt bulb during daylight with the sun on it

All 3 parts were very informative. Cheers

Glad it was helpful!

Thanks for sharing your video I was raised like that Puerto Rico was like this we did not have much either it was six of us my mom decided to come to the usa in 1973.1 thing I love the Philippines and the culture again thank you

[@ABritinthPhilippines]

Thank you.

[@rcamacho66]

I was watching one of your videos from a few years ago when you were living in a small townhouse by yourself. I know you live rent free, but nobody in their right mind would want to live in those conditions that aren’t born in the Philippines and were born into those living conditions. It was a good three part series. You should do the same with expats already living their and compare living conditions.

[@pilarsorianoadekeye4340]

Cris is humble and understanding. God bless and protect his family. He is doing a great job doing these.

[@halomankingala]

Thank you for your videos ..keep up the good work.

I watch your videos and am so thankful I live in the UK and yet your Filipino friends still seem so happy with what they do have

[@pamchinn9312]

A lot of people think it is lots of $ make people happy, U can b happy w/good friends r family and a bit of money, just buy less things

[@ericberry4285]

yes is like b aranas in cebu where my wife used to live with her sisters family

[@markmcdaniel304]

Good video! As a woodsman and a bachelor I could live there. Food is important and electricity. I know advanced first aid,cheap if you catch it early. Translated money to USD is very useful. How much robbery of expats in places like this would be helpful.

[@garrethmoroney285]

Thank you for sharing and thank you for taking your time making these las 3 videos and your editing love watching from Dublin Ireland

117 a month is not much to live on I get 901 a month and barely make it. I wish she would get more do you think the government can help her

[@billskinner6709]

hope my girl and mom are happy when im visiting love it there

[@MichaelSmith-hr3be]

Chris, necessity forces acceptance of hard conditions, but I heard also a longing for better. Annie repeatedly said her place was too hot, and you all noted the health hazard of the stagnant pool. It would cost very little to raise Annie's roof, yet it would mean so much to her family. The stagnant pool has no flow, so it can be filled with concrete without disrupting any water flows in the area. Expats have been known to take on projects like that in the Philippines, because the locals will not do it, not so much because of the cost or lack of desire for betterment, but because the culture of acceptance holds them back.

[@ABritinthPhilippines]

It was very sad for me to see where Annie lives,but the main thing is she's happy with her lot at least for now.

[@kimuseni]

Thanks for the tour

[@tomcosta9266]

you got balls my friend...walking in those squatter villages can be riskey for set ups

[@ABritinthPhilippines]

Not really Tom,Naga is very safe and on the whole you normally find people in these situations are very kind and good.

[@tomcosta9266]

ok sir....ill take your word for it

[@philipjanek3864]

So from what I have seen if you get a Filipina or Filipino to find you a place and then fix it up. You can live in Naga City as a single male not being a monger for 50000 pesos easily with money to save. That is correct isn't it? I get an army pension but I don't want to spend it all and I have backup funds. My medications are free from the VA. I'm not looking to be a monger just a live cheap. I smoke cigarettes and drink a lot of coffee but I don't drink booze or beer just soda. So I'm assuming if I want to make my budget 1100 or less in USD I can get a nice studio apartment or one bedroom in Naga City and live comfortably. Is this correct? Anyone who answers would be greatly appreciated thanks. Chris and Mel thanks for the informational videos😀😀😀

[@ABritinthPhilippines]

You should be alright on that Philip.

[@abbodalghamdi9164]

There is some peace in knowing you have done all you can and there is no point worrying about things you can't affect. I was fortunate being born in the US that if needed I could usually work more.

How to earn money ? Build apartment rent rooms as I did my problem was my health so had to go home

Hello Chris and Mel. Long time no watched your great family videos. How can I be stupid enough to watch drama and bs videos in the expat community instead? Luckily there are many great vloggers too, that im very pleased to watch. Happy family life! Congrats for the content and the quality of your videos! Cheerio!

What is it about Indian immigrants to the Philippines becoming money lenders? If this is endemic then they will soon own the Filipino, not a good situation that will not be tolerated.

[@kenmichael380]

I can't believe how poor these people are. I watch other Philippine channels and haven't seen this level of living. Wow! Now I understand why so many Filipino's move to USA. I work with numerous Filipino's here in CA. They are smart and hard working people. I think about retiring in the Philippines. However, I've learned that it's pretty dangerous, crime, pollution, etc. I hear you need to carry a GUN in the area's you're traveling.

[@ABritinthPhilippines]

You have been given the wrong information.

[@jimalvir5866]

Thank Chris and Mel your last three videos have been a humbling experience. The phrase 'There but for the grace of God' understandably comes to mind, but as you put Chris, everyone is happy with smiles on their face. I have only recently come across your channel from Chris's balut challenge a couple of weeks ago and I would say I'm hooked. Love your British dry sense of humour and your inserts are pearlers, and you're pretty adept at editing. Look forward to going through your past videos and keep up the very realistic and open view of your part of the Philippines. I myself being Philippine born and raised for my first ten years in Manila before the family immigrating to Australia fifty years ago can't help but share your empathy for the filipino people. Keep up your great work.
