We can't deny it's there, but it's up to us whether we join in the regionalistic bandwagon or not.

I'm proud of my colleagues because we tend to be open to new things, such as the Manila- or Luzon-based ones learning the Visayan/Cebuano language. No regionalism or discrimination there.

If you remember your Philippine history, this exact same thing is what led to Andres Bonifacio's death in Cavite more than a century ago by Aguinaldo's men. Di magkasundo yung mga taga-Kawit at taga-Intramuros kahit lahat sila Katipunero. Talaga naman!
