What’s your honest opinion about the Philippines and Filipinos in as people in general?
We wholeheartedly LOVE the Philippines and the Filipino People!
Indeed the Philippines has its issues:
- It is as yet poor, yet less so than in the ongoing past.
- There is still debasement, yet again less so.
- It is as yet hot and inclined to storms, quakes, and volcanoes.
Indeed, not much you can do about that one, but rather no place is great, right?

(Please post your answer in the box below)
The Philippines is the third largest English speaking country in the world. It has a rich history combining Asian, European, and American influences. Prior to Spanish colonization in 1521, the Filipinos had a rich culture and were trading with the Chinese and the Japanese. Spain\’s colonization brought about the construction of Intramuros in 1571, a \”Walled City\” comprised of European buildings and churches, replicated in different parts of the archipelago. In 1898, after 350 years and 300 rebellions, the Filipinos, with leaders like Jose Rizal and Emilio Aguinaldo, succeeded in winning their independence.
