    I moved from the suburbs of LA to the Talisay, Cebu in 2010. Philippines is HOME for me now. The people are the sweetest, friendliest, most hospitable people I have ever met. I found my Prov.18:22 favor from the Lord here.

    Some neighboring Asian counties like South Korea, Thailand the parents send send their children to the Philippines to study & learn English. English is the second language and use in school as medium of teaching . Pinoys are more open & warm to foreigners as the country for centuries is being invaded by different countries. An example was when we were still living in Manila my father brought home a couple from Texas & were living in tents close to Manila Bay or the Cultural Center. He found out that they were waiting for their $ to be remitted. They ran out of money. So he brought them to our home to stay and being fed for a few days till they got their money. That’s the hospitality and care they experienced.

      Uh...I would like to correct you on the origin of their friendliness/hospitality to foreign people. If you happen to research about the time when Magellan's crew reached Philippines, that friendliness was already there.

    • @chariesygengco5797
      @chariesygengco5797 Před rokem

      I think I didn’t make myself clear when I said for centuries PH was invaded by different. It meant Pinoys are used to seeing different nations coming so much so Pinoys are already friendly and hospitable. It may have started with the first 2 neighboring countries that came & settled in the Phil, Indonesia & Malaysia. I believe they were already family oriented people . Therefore being friendly & hospitable. These are what we inherited from them. It’s already innate in our culture.

    Some Filipinos though they can understand and speak English usually feel intimidated when trying to communicate with an English speaker, not wanting to be embarrassed by their perceived "inadequate" English.

    English speaking Visitors in the Philippines must not assume that all Filipinos can speak English fluently. You should Speak slowly and maybe add a hand signal and smile to make the person you are asking less intimidated. Many times I noticed, they can not get what you said if you do it fast, try doing it very slowly most times it will work.
