All this "THE PINOY CAN" talk is getting really old
Actually, TRUE ACHIEVEMENT requires both components, BEING ABLE (AND WILLING) TO DO SOMETHING and HAVING THE MEANS TO DO SOMETHING.

When Tony Tankiaktong's wife had the best formula for a Pinoy burger, he rounded up relatives to put up the capital for an ice cream parlor/hamburger joint in Cubao. Thereby establishing the first branch of JOLLIBEE.

When Larry Page and Sergey Brin were college drop-outs with an idea of making the best search engine in the world, they pulled out their life savings and maxed out their credit cards to purchase hard-drives for their servers. They also convinced two venture capitalists to join their effort, thereby forming GOOGLE in a garage.

The Pinoys have oodles of the first component, BEING ABLE (AND WILLING) TO DO SOMETHING.
That is where "THE PINOY CAN" talk is.

But they never really go beyond that.
