Would you want to be a Pinoy again if you were to be born again?

Since I'm only half-Pinoy... I can say... half-yes!

I've often thought about how my life would be if we hadn't moved here... but now that I have a wonderful wife and a beautiful child... what other place could I be?

I've been through some really sh*tty times here in the Philippines, but I really can't imagine living anywhere else.

Yes, definitely.

If I were to be born again, I still want to be a Pinoy with US, Jap, Chinese, Euro Citizenship.

You should visit Japan then if you haven't been there already. You won't be disappointed except maybe for the expensive everything. Of course, you should know that already.

i have to say half yes same with niky.

life here has upside and downside. being a fil-chi. im living on 2 cultures. and i have to say. if filipinos change the bad ways. or even just half of those bad ways. this country would progress real fast. and would definetly get my 100% vote of living here again. but, until then, will choose living elsewhere as an open option.

Me. If I was given the chance to choose my ethnicity I would prefer to be born at new zealand. Im not ashamed to be a pinoy but I prefer to live in a quiet and peaceful place and most importantly a community with a few population. But there is one trait that I dislike about pinoys, yung tipong parang hindi na mabubuhay kapag walang kausap.

most definitely! i'd wanna be me again, only with straighter teeth, better hair, and more motivated.

Yup.

Though nationality isn't a big issue for me... all of the races / nationalities out there also went through some tough and even horrific times (e.g. the WWII Japanese & Germans, the bloodthirsty Europeans of the middle ages, etc.).
