Philippine Flag in Your Car

[BoEinG_747]

IMHO, its them government officials who call the OFW 'bagong bayani'.

whoever started this "bagong bayani " tag..lets face it...iyan remittances ng mga pinoy ay meron or kung hindi man ...malaki naitutulong sa gobyerno...kaya hindi issue kung sino ang nag bansag ng tawag na iyan

If you ask me, I'd rather have our professionals work locally and help the country grow. As woulfe27 said (and I agree), magagaling talaga ang mga pinoy, but the reality is, nasasayang ang skills nila dito because of corrupt government officials.

ako din mas gusto ko din sa pinas lang mag trabaho, at tulungan makaahon ang bansang pinas...at hindi rin naman ng "lahat nag aabroad" ay gusto nila mag stay sa bansa na pinapasukan nila .ng matagal .kahit mejo mas malaki ang kita..in my case lang po ..
pag naka ipon balik pinas na lang
sarap pa rin kasama kumilos sa sariling bansa

Everyone has his / her own opinion diba? Let's not resort to this okay?

just like what you've said ...im entitle on my own opinion

[garyq]

Had it and have it on all my rigs. Proud to be Pinoy!

But what would you rather have? Remittances that help the country? Or professionals / OFWs using their superior skills and working locally to help the country? I'd rather have tha latter, because though remittances help the country, its only short-term. People working here are for the long term naman.

Consider this: A pinoy was able to invent a new miracle drug. If he patented it here, and the government helps him by giving him subsidies / investments, then the Philippines would be the manufacturing core of this new drug. Imagine how much dollars will we all reap. Now the so-called first world countries would be buying from us.

In another scenario, the pinoy was able to invent this miracle drug. But then, he is working for a US Pharmaceutical Company. His invention would be taken by the company and patented as its own. Then they'll be earning billions from it. And when we need to buy the drug locally, they will sell it at an astronomical price. As for the pinoy, he is diligently sending his remittance back home.

Sending remittances may look like helping the country, but it is not. The primary purpose of sending one's hard-earned money back home is to feed his / her family. If one is to do something else more patriotic, then one would send half of his earnings to the Philippine government.

As for coming back home, yes I agree there is no place like home. But I've noticed that a lot of those who go abroad would rather stay there. And if they could bring their families to emigrate, they will. Yes, not everyone wants to stay abroad. But a lot do.

As long as the country does not change, good quality people would rather leave and find a better place to live.

IMHO, if one is to be a proud pinoy, he / she should do something for the betterment of all pinoys, instead of just talking about it and sticking flags.

i agree with you on this one.

i just wish our kababayans realize the truth that there is still some good in the community. minsan kasi ang mentality ng tao "if they do it, why can't i?" ...

...sino po ba ang mga recipient ng dollar na iyan di ba ang mga mamayan na naiwan sa pinas of course may pambili kaya madami sila nabibili at lumalaki ang trading ..maging ang bangko ay nagagamit ang dollar na na dedeposito sa dollar account mga mga beneficiary ng mga OCW

If one is to do something else more patriotic, then one would send half of his earnings to the Philippine government.

ano ito ...another hypothetical na naman

People working here are for the long term naman

hindi siguro..pumunta ka sa POEA at sa mga recruitment agency tinggnan mo ang dami nag aapply ...gayon na din sa mga embassy...madami gusto mag apply yun iba wala lang time para makapagprocess ng papers or wala pang placement fee

Yes, not everyone wants to stay abroad. But a lot do.

isama mo na ako sa bilang na ito ,ayw mag stay ng matagal or for life sa abroad

.. hehe .. superman mentality naman yung do something for the betterment of all pinoys .. ok na sa akin yung batman mentality ... it's ok to work in your sphere of influence .. parang dito sa tsikot .. wala naman ako maitutulong sa pilipinas in general except to talk in this forum and make people aware that there is at least 1 person who still believes in the philippines .. hindi naman ito makakadagdag sa kaban ng bansa .. hindi naman ito mababasa ng mga politiko na namumuno .. hindi naman ito makakain ng pamilya ko ... but it just might make another tsikoteer a believer as well ... or another tsikoteer to know that he is not alone in believing .. and perhaps this will ripple into other tsikoteers or to other people in their own spheres of influence to work harder, pay correct taxes, drive safely, vote wisely, and perhaps one day .. makita natin na umunlad yung bansa natin .. and even if that day never comes ... at least we were part of nation building .. rather than trying to bring it down .. and that's something we can be proud of ..

Yes, but what is the primary purpose? To be a patriot, or to send money to feed one's family? So ang bilis pala magging bagong bayani... magpadala ka lang ng pera eh kasing level mo na pala sila Jose Rizal at Andres Bonifacio?

isama mo na ako sa bilang na ito ,ayw mag stay ng matagal or for life sa abroad

So you are working abroad pala? Or you have plans to go abroad?

I think I should reprhase what I said... tama ka, it does appear to be sort of like a 'superman mentality'.

What I meant was, even the little things you do to try to improve the lives of everyone, can go a long way in helping the country.

For example, in my case, I try to use biodiesel as much as possible. Though it 's an additional cost on my part (its not a requirement to use it anyway), I just want to lessen the pollution my ride generates. Less pollution = better air quality = healthier people and surroundings.

Another example would also be following traffic rules. If one person would just follow the rules, then at least that is one less person that adds to the chaos.

These things may be trivial, but if a lot of people start doing it, then don't you think the country would be a better place to live in? Tama ka diyan sa ripple effect.

cguro nga hindi tayo mag kakaunawaan malamng mag kaiba tayo ng estado sa buhay ,kaya iba pananaw mo ..pero ikaw na rin may sabi kanya kanya opinion lang iyan ...gaya din sinabi ko ...may naitutulong ang pagpapadala ng dollar ng mga OCW sa bansang pilipinas .kung hindi mo naapreciate iyan bahala ka na din . ..opinion lang naman iyan sa iyon ,ako alam ko din kung saan bagay ako nakakatulong sa familya ko at sa bansa bialng isang hamak na manggagawa
.iyan bagong bayani tag at padalahan ng dollar sa pinas na iyan .kahit alisin mo man sa bokabularyo mo .na hindi nakaktulong sa bansa or iba bagay nakikinabang ....kung ano din opinon mo diyan bahala ka na din sa gusto mo isipin respeto ko na lang kung ano man gusto mo .kahit gusto mo pa palitan si rizal or bonifacio ..baka iboto pa kita ..

masyado exagerated or my halo na pamimilosopo kung sasabhin mo ka level ng mga OFW workers na nagreremit ng dollar thru bank ay ka level ni rizal....TSK TSK TSK

BTW salamat na din sa opinion mo ....

So you are working abroad pala? Or you have plans to go abroad?

....pakiread mo na lang nauna ko post baka di mo naunawaan kung nasaan ako

[GlennSter]

guys guys...

from a person who reads all of your replies...masasabi ko lang ay may nakikita akong common sa inyo sa kabila ng pagkakaiba niyo ng perspektibo...NA MAY PAGMAMAHAL PARIN KAYO SA BANSA NATIN SA KABILA NG MGA PANGYAYARING HINDI KANAIS NAIS.

imho, pati yang si conzky, sa kabila ng kaniyang pagtalikod at pagkawalan ng pag asa sa pilipinas, sigurado ako na hindi niya tatalkiuran ang pagkapinoy niya.

pare pareho tayo ng hangarin mga kababayan.nagkakaiba lang tayo ng opinion at pagharap sa bawat sitwasyon.walang kwentang pagtalunan pa ito dahil pagdating sa opinion, walang tama at mali.

peace brothas!

[BoEinG_747]

sorry na din kung may nasabi lang ako na di maganda sa paningin nyo ...
pwede mali ako, pwede tama ako ..
or ganon din kayo pwede tama kayo ,pwede mali rin kayo

pare pareho tayo ng hangarin mga kababayan.nagkakaiba lang tayo ng opinion at pagharap sa bawat sitwasyon.walang kwentang pagtalunan pa ito dahil pagdating sa opinion, walang tama at mali.

korek ka jan opinion lang lahat ito ..

punta na lang tayo sa bottom line ..
kahit lumang bayani pa or kahit wala ka mapadala sa pinas na pera

Why do you keep on repeating about 'respecting other people's opinion'? Yes, I have my own opinion and I do respect other's opinion too. I don't go as far as calling other people's opinion as 'stupid' or 'pamimilosopo'.

I am just opening a topic for healthy conversation, that we can debate and talk about. I am not forcing my thoughts on anyone. If you're idea of 'respecting other's opinion' is not to comment on yours, then so be it.

....pakiread mo na lang nauna ko post baka di mo naunawaan kung nasaan ako

Pasensya na, kaya nga nagtatanong lang. Mahirap yatang makakuha ng sagot sa iyo. Pasenya na ulit.

[BoEinG_747]

. magpadala ka lang ng pera eh kasing level mo na pala sila Jose Rizal at Andres Bonifacio ?

sorry sir ...kung hindi pamimilosopo iyan ...

I don't go as far as calling other people's opinion as 'stupid' or 'pamimilosopo'

bakit mo sasabhin mag padala lang dollar ay bagong bayani na

at kahit ulit ulitin ko po ang magsabi ng kanya kanya opinion lang iyan ..wla po ako makita masama doon



nagsorry na ako kung may nasabi ako na d maganda sa paningin nyo ..

kung hindi nyo maaccept ok lang ...


again opinion ko iyon ...hehehe

Peace to all!
i just want to make something clear. If you will review my first post on this thread, I just answered the question on whether or not "anyone is proud to fly the Philippine flag," during the independence day. I didnt even explicitly say that im not proud to be pinoy, much less "tatalikuran ang pagkapinoy ko."

[woulfe27]

ako rin hindi na disappoint sa iyo..hehehe

well, i wasn't really expecting much from you. based on your poor grammar, i knew what kind of answers to expect from you. but you're showing some signs of improvement, so keep it up. who knows, you might just pull it off.
