The Philippines!

Hello dsplay5, I guess you already have absorbed too much information about our native land, the land of our birth, the Philippines that we love, that every foreigners love to visit. Since you are already rich in info about us, why don't you go down to our embassy and have your passport stamped with a visa and jump in to the first flight out? You will enjoy here, everybody, all of us is hospitable and will make your visit memorable. Try it, my friend from that other part of the Globe, you are welcome with our arms open wide.

Hmmmm firstly, We are called Filipinos and not Philippines. Well, basically the Philippines is a nation with diverse cultures and dialects. From North to South different Filipinos speak different tongues. Filipinos though are mixed in origin coming from Malays, Indos, Chinese, Spanish and American. But why do I say that we do have Spanish and American origin? The Philippines was an old colony of these two great nations. Hence, inter marriages occurred and the blood lines mixed. Geography wise, It is situation above the equator and is part of SouthEast Asia. We have beautiful beaches and landscapes which most visitors admire and love. The only problem with this country is the poverty and corruption. I do not know why, but in my point of view, the only thing that the Philippine needs is discipline. It has been frustrating to see, the Philippines getting bad credit because of stupid things that people and government do. I think this is the only country that has 40% of its governing body that has actors, basketball players as its officials. I hope after the last elections, people voted for the good and used their brains.

Hello dsplay5, I believe the right term is Filipinos/ pinoys from the Philippines. wait a minute? why just Philippines? why can you invite other people from different countries? and what made you interested in the Philippines. Well, as far as i can tell politically, people are still divided and vulnerable to corruption. we have so many different languages but most people speak tagalog in luzon, bisaya in visayas area and marawi in mindanao (i think) but that's what i know. there's a lot of tourist spots here. just come by and visit. you won't regret it.

Hi there! I am a Filipino but currently I'm not in our country. Basically, the Philippines is composed of three major islands: Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Among the three, my hometown is in the Visayas which is Cebu. Cebu is a well developed city and it is somehow known for the beautiful beaches surrounding it. The natives of Cebu are called Cebuanos and we speak Bisaya as our dialect and English as the medium of instructions in schools and universities. Mainly, the Philippines is a beautiful country. It has a tropical climate and it is rich of beautiful sceneries and natural resources. The Filipinos are very well known for their hospitality and their strong ties to their families.

Me too. I love filipinos. I wanna meet one.

I am Filipino, I think Filipino love online community a lot because even in facebook there's almost 10million Filipino member. For my country well we have tons of different language, tradition and culture and almost all Filipino are hospitable. Philippines is also know for its tourist spot, there are tons of beautiful places here in the philippines, like boracay beach this is the best place to enjoy your summer try to search it on internet.

Well Filipinos seem to love the internet and new technology. That is why when things like these site exist, they usually flocked together to air their side of things. I guess we Filipinos are also known as the texting capital of the world since we are the ones that has the most that embraced the texting technology when it was introduced in our country.

Hey there. I am a Filipino but not living in my country. I am currently in Europe particularly in Switzerland. Well, what can I say about my country. It is an archiepelago which has thousands of Islands and does not have any neighboring countries where you can travel by land. Islands are of course surrounded by waters and Philippines is famous of having lots of beaches and resorts from the North to the South. Often, the most beautiful beaches in the Philippines can be found in the Visayas area where Cebu is located. The most famous one is called Boracay where majority of the people there were tourists both local and international. Philippines has varieties of cultures which we inherit from the Americans, Spanish and Japanese People since we were once a colony of this countries. Filipino people are known to be hospitable, close family ties, and regionalistic. I am proud to be a Filipino and I will always cherish the moment that I was born in that Land that I acquire the values I really treasure. I hope you can visit my country sometimes and able to discover our historical places. Good luck.
