I appreciate you!

We are thankful for visiting Philippines ❤❤❤ have a safe staying Philippines

[@princessbichon9451]

Thank you very for your wonderful compliments about my country, I been in USA for 35 years now and I’m still hearing negative things about the Philippines from those people that never been there 😂😂 I’m glad that some foreigners have time to show our country, the culture and the views and how people treat our visitors 👍thank you and GodBless

[@Travel_chronicles]

It's unfortunate because here in Canada they say a lot of negative as well that it's very dangerous, but I find it quite the opposite, such a fun amazing country to visit

[@Psalm91Dailybread]

Thanks for visiting here and introducing it to those who had negative thinking about Philippines, it's really amazing if you experience it yourself

[@efriendsf]

The scanner is there for the safety of the customers. You will see that in all the malls and hotels in the Philippines. I guess you heard what happened at the Siam Paragon Mall in Bangkok. The Philippines doesn’t want that to happen at public places. Enjoy your stay in this beautiful country. You will love it!

[@Travel_chronicles]

Very interesting! Good security!

[@eduardochavacano]

The scanners have absolutely nothing to do with that very ISOLATED case that happened in Bangkok. Filipinos always try to create trivia from thin air to have something to say to foreigners. Everything including a scanner needs to have a backstory with the obvious subtext that Thailand is dangerous, an idea borne out of insecurities. Thailand is the Queen of Tourism in Southeast Asia, learn from their example, rather than resort to mud slinging.

[@angelinarobina3228]

Watching from London. It's amazing how you interact with the locals. I'm pretty sure Filipinos will love and embrace you. Enjoy your stay in the beautiful Philippines.

English is our second language. It is taught in school -- from kindergarten until college. All textbooks used in our schools and universities are in English. Teachers and professors also use English when teaching in their classes. Except of course when the subject being taught is Filipino language, then the Filipino dialect is used in class.

[@josepanicucci8591]

As far as I know English is the medium of instruction in PH schools its not considered a foreign language separate from other subjects in spite of it being so Filipinos in general are far from being fluent at it

Welcome to the Philippines. I'm a Filipino but has been in Houston for the last 40 years. The reason for the scanner in mall is for safety to all Filipinos. Guns or knives are illegal in any malls. Safety is very important. We are not rich people but extremely happy. When I came to Houston that is when I stop smiling. People in the USA are just overstressed. Americans are extremely materialistic.

[@handpayquester2645]

I could not agree more. I live in Chicago for 8 years now and I’m planning to go back home and retire for good. America is a stressful country.

[@darwinyuson9338]

I subscribed by the way, and it seems your channel will fly in a few more weeks the way you vlog, interact, etc. So, guys let's make this guy a new resident vlogger here haha. Cheers, bro! Btw, to your question on why Filipinos speak pretty good English? Because PH was a former U.S. territory and almost became the US state in the Pacific before WW2. American influence here is massive, from brand, culture, basketball, fast food, education, etc. name it. Badly, the Spanish culture of corruption remains in the govt that's why the public sector is still slow, while at least the private sector's effort to uplift the economy is fast. So sooner we'll get there again in a better economic status just like in our heydays in the 60s being the other 1st world nation after Japan in East Asia region.

[@henryferdinandandoyo3474]

Well said Darwin.I like your thought about our country.I am also a new subscriber.

[@darwinyuson9338]

@@henryferdinandandoyo3474 Thanks bro, govt should realize the importance of becoming at least a light industrial nation similar to our neighbors Indonesia, Vietnam, and Thailand, it boosts their economy a lot in revenue in exports, things which have been lacking for the past 28 years. We need to balance our export vs import, and we need to have some state-owned corporation - industrial manufacturing, that would provide thousands of jobs among our professionals and labor force and would create a new entity brand that is PH-made. You can't go wrong on that, similar to how South Korea, Taiwan, China, etc. made their brands that became a game changer in their economy. All of those brand/exports sold globally provides revenue in taxes to their national income, things that our country is zero to begin with, we are stocked in OFW mentality more than creating industry inside. Hehe, believe me, no president so far has that vision sad to say. We never hardly try that one to be the agenda of any administration...

[@pvrp115]

The Philippines was a former territory and colony (19898-1946) of the US just like Puerto Rico or Guam. When the US was building an empire in the Pacific in the 19th century, the islands were part of the benevolent assimilation policy which aimed to assimilate Filipinos to American life and society similar to what was pursued to the natives of Hawaii and Alaska. Hence you have the vast majority of Filipinos speaking fluent English. Though full assimilation was not achieved, the overwhelming majority of the population adopted English as a second language and most of them continue to speak it until this day as English was maintained as an official language of government, business, education and media up to this day. Even today, so many Americans do not seem to be aware of this and are so puzzled as to why they meet Filipinos who speak fluent English. 😊

[@josepanicucci8591]

As far as I know English is the medium of instruction in PH schools in spite of it being so Filipinos in general are far from being fluent at it You Filipinos forever love to imitate & mimic American ways I advice you to try harder don't get confused PH is not a USA State its a very bad & cheap imitation of it
