well at least he knows what will make him say "i'm proud to be a filipino but given his high expectation, I just don't know how long it will take. I Just hope most if not all Filipinos do somehow feel the need to get better individually for the betterment of the nation as a whole.

To answer the thread: What makes you proud being a Filipino?

1. Family ties - there's always a cousin or a 2nd cousin or kahit gaanong kalayo pa yan. "kamag-anak is kamag-anak." kahit kapit bahay lang or kabaranggay...

2. True friends - pansin ko sa other nationalities, may "true friends" din naman. pero mas madaming "friend of convenience"

Resilience . . My previous american boss told me na when he travelled even on remote places, he will see filipinos working.

I was once in Kunshan China on a business trip 6 yrs ago , walang nag eenglish even sa shopping mall unless your in a 4 or 5 star hotel, pinoys still work there as technicians and operators in an electronics factory, they told me they are working there for > 5 yrs back then . . Kulang talaga opportunity sa pinas.

I don't see it as "kulang" - mataas masyado minimum wages natin kaya a lot of companies left
