do we really understand each other as filipinos?

yes... because were are the same kind.. even if were christian's, muslims or what so ever, it is the best interest that we all filipino's are united to one another..

but did we truly understand each other as filipinos? We are united but look at our present situation that our country is facing..

yes... because were are the same kind.. even if were christian's, muslims or what so ever, it is the best interest that we all filipino's are united to one another..

no, we only need to be tolerant and respect each others belief... as long as the right to life liberty and property are not violated, we should just mind our own business...

dapat unta kita mga pinoy magkasinabot na para maka start na unta ta sa change ba.. it seems man gud until now we are not that united.. sige lang jud tag away sa usag-usa, murag mas dali pa sa ato ang makig-away ug ubang tao.. if only we will focus our energy sa unsaon paglambo ni ato nasud basin naa pa mahitabo nga maayo kaysa sige tag focus ug energy sa pag-away sa usag-usa nga hatred lang ang magrule sa ilang heart. hehe

What kind of principle should the people be united at? What kind of change are we talking about? Change for the better, or for the better of them, or for the better of yours? Who should lead us to change? Everyone wants change, thats what is always being promised by every new administration... As long as the leader plans to uplift all the people's lives through laws, he will always fall for the same traps through which he has criticize his predecessor.

own benefit jud.. does this mean ba na because taga luzon ang mga nahimong leader sa ato nasud, dapat ang mga luzon lang jud ang muasenso unya ang visayas ug mindanao ulahe na lang?

I meant, everyone complains to the government so that the government may give them some sort of benefit, not knowing how the government could ever do that without getting it from someone else first.

Ang pinaka simple na problem sa mga pinoy ka crab mentality which can apply to any situation mao dili ta magka sinabot

Ang pinaka problem sa pinoy ky wala sila kabaw unsay dapat function unta sa government...daghan nato ga tuo ang gobyerno dapat mag hatag sa tanan natong kanihanglan, pagkatawo hangtud sa pagkamatay...

selfish man gud ta....what's in it for me? makakwarta ko ana? ....dayun ang mosulod sa hunahuna
masuya-on pud ta...ilabi na ug gibogo-an ta sa na-"swertehan" dili gyud ta mag duha-duha ug bira niya paubos...imbes tabangan pa birahon gyud paubos...if I can't have it then you must not have it too...faets!

Yes. My instructor once said: Everyone is selfish.
Crab mentality is always there, mao walay asenso.

this is what i rather call "the filipino" culture... it will take generations before "we" change for the better... for now, this is our bitter pill to swallow that we just have to accept who we are and what we are... too much freedom, too little discipline and respect... that's what "we" are...

i think it's more of understanding oneself of who we really are and then we can understand each other...
