I wont say it, I will do it, the best way to prove I am a Filipino is buy being Filipino and supporting Filipino products.Action speaks louder than words. AI dont need to scream and brag "proud to be Filipino" and annoy other nationalities just to show patriotism, Loving my country and helping it grow is the best way.

I would answer that I was born and raised in the Philippines. It is not my business anymore if a person has something against the environment and the culture I have been brought in. In all respects, I am a decent and educated person and I would always resorts to reason. I won't allow to lower myself before an individual who cannot respect or at least tolerate another person hailing from another background.

Hey, patriotism is a virtue! At least I know I have one.
Like you, I am every inch a Filipino. I never pretend to be an American nor a Chinese, or someone else. I am proud of who I am and am grateful to the Almighty for making me brown and lovely!

Hello Karl,
I think it's about time that some of us prove something to be proud of and not just saying "am proud to be a Filipino" there has been a lot gaps between filipino and those who are half Filipino living or born abroad. I am not sure about what the "Mother Land" asked me but if the time comes (don't know what the heck it is) i will do my best to help

No matter where I'll be, no matter what I will be, I would still stand up and proudly say that I'm a Filipino. One, could say so many bad things about Filipinos, But no one in the world can say there is nothing good about Filipinos. If you can hear news about countries who are in the midst of their peaceful revolution towards freedom, that is because they were inspired with the Filipino courage during EDSA revolution.
