If given the chance and the means, will you migrate to another country?

I know so many families, some even are my friends who have migrated to other countries which they call greener pasture... some migrated to Canada, some to USA, some to Australia and some few migrated to London, UK. I have nothing against those folks as they have their own prerogative but as for me...I am already contented with my life here in the Philippines. We are not rich but we have sufficient enough to have comfortable life. And I firmly believe God will bless me wherever I am for as long as I remain faithful to Him. How about you are you contented with the country you live in or also contemplating to migrate?

Good to hear that you are contented here.So happen that I was one among those you have mentioned who wanted to migrate to other countries.If I have a stable job here and earnings enough to support my family plus a few savings then why not to say that I will be contented here or satisfied.You have a nice status here financially that is why you have said that and I really happy for you.Keep it up and may God continuously shower his blessing to you.

im also from philippines and i would say that people tend to migrate because of some reason.,and we can't do anything about it. lets just face it.,we work so hard here and still the salary don't increase.,there's a lot of price increase.,gas, rice etc.,government are so corrupt.,well, im not saying that i don't love our country.,of course i will still choose to live and die here but as for greener pasture is concern.,i would rather sacrifice and look for a job in the other country.,i would love to visit singapore or UK.,thats my preferred country to work for.,have a nice day ahead! see you around!

Yes, life is getting harder and working abroad for some people will help.

I am a Filipino and proud to be one!
yes we're having so many issues in our country, who doesn't?
I also believe that God will surely bless me wherever i am as long as I hold on to Him. I have thought of going to other countries for a visit but not to stay there til i die. Philippines is my Home and everyone knows there's no place like Home.
