Are we Pinoys in Pinas too arrogant to see we could be the problem?

Look at what a country produces and u will see the image of the nation.

Boeing makes passenger jets for the world's airlines.

Toyota make cars for the world's roads.

We provide domestic help for the world's households.

Good to see discussion is alive and well. To also see "nuggets" of inspiration...time to take it past cyberspace?

sabi nga ni Shaddai leader Mike velarde sa isang interview, "there is opportunity in crisis. ang dapat lang ay matutunan ng pinoy makita yun"." d ko alam kumbakit nya sinabi yun, pero para na din nya sinabi na he's taking advantage of his lost flock.

anyway, ganyan naman takbo ng mundo. the rich pinoys are doing it since day 1.
you know why majority of news (like in this article) are negative and negative news sell and stock markets drop on an inkling of a negative news ... it's bec. a lot of people are too weak to ignore the negative. and so the experiment begins ... and the opportunity too.

ang dapat lang natin katakutan na major negative news sa pinas eh natural disaster and foreign invasion. everything else, like cheating in the elections, stock market crash, dollar gaining vs. peso, pinoys discriminating lowly pinoys, rubout cases are all magnified man-made disasters. kung observe nyo, the negative reactions from these news in general are what's making it worst for us. some become defensive, paranoid, pessimistic, suspicious and some even lose hope.

stop believing in the media and the entire circus in the TV hehehe

well that and a whole bunch of other stuff, like world class sweet mangoes, professional health care workers and IT people, quality electronic goods and a whole lot more i just didnt have the time to do the reasearch.

sa madaling sabi, kung sa paningin mo bobo ka di maglalaon na bobo na rin ang magiging tingin sa iyo ng ibang tao. (medyo sablay na sa topic, i just wanted to drive home a point)

media is not wholly at fault here. after all, it only reflects reality. as the thread suggest, WE, all of us, are the problem. so instead of pointing fingers, why dont we own up to it, and start acting and doing something about it. this is still our ship. even if its sinking, its still our ship.

...and unfortunately it is the only ship we have to call our own...

it would be good if this is all that they do (save for some), but i think more than "reflect" they tend to "influence" reality (most of the time in order to serve a vested interest) here in the country.

Hirap naman ng thread na ito. Doon na lang ako sa Showbiz Tsismis.

came across this article here in US , and proud to know that fil - am are doing better than most of the minority even comparable to educated jews. what bothers me is the statement na " tendency to procrastinate himself " when he is on his way to the top, err, something to that effect..
