i really think they (Filipinos) have a very rich culture. yes, discrimination is really rampant for asians but the good thing about them is that they keep on smiling and fighting for who they are and for their culture. you just have to know them more..be with them for some time and see how they live their lives positively.

what we learned (me as a filipino) from the americans,I guess,is the fondness of the filipino people to learn and speak english,if not all,because obviously,we are one of the top countries that speak english fluently and/or where english language was widely spoken,so i think english language was the one that we really inherited from the americans.....yey......pero siyempre di dapat natin makalimutan magsalita ng tagalog...di ba? (yeah you mispelled the Philippines....but its ok,maybe next time)

Nursing comes to the Philippines\n\nAmericans began training the first Filipino nursing students in 1907. Nursing students in the Philippines studied many of the same subjects as nursing students in the U.S. However, Choy says, the curriculum in the Philippines “was never a mirror-image reproduction of the American nursing curriculum” and involved more than a simple transfer of knowledge from American nurses to Filipino nurses. The first Filipino nursing students also studied subjects that were more relevant to their patients, such as “the nursing of tropical diseases” and “industrial and living conditions in the islands,” as described by Lavinia L. Dock’s 1912 book A History of Nursing: From the Earliest Times to the Present Day with Special Reference to the Work of the Past Thirty Years.\n\nIn addition, Filipino nursing students studied English; today, the Philippines is the third-largest English-speaking country in the world. However, Choy notes, Filipino nursing students didn’t lose their native language; Philippine schools of nursing believed the best way to promote physical health was to have a select few medical professionals spread their knowledge “in the dialects of their own people,” as described in the Philippine General Hospital School of Nursing Ninth Annual Announcement and Catalogue, 1915-1916.\n\nThrough the 1930s, Philippine schools of nursing continued to adopt those aspects of American professional nursing they deemed relevant and appropriate, such as higher admission standards and the specialization of public health nursing.\n\nTraining and practice at the hospital schools of nursing in Manila was “violently disrupted” when the Japanese occupied the Philippines in 1942, Choy says. However, U.S. colonial patterns in Philippine nursing education soon returned after the U.S. reclaimed the country in 1945 and even after the Philippines gained independence from the U.S. July 4, 1946.

Poor economically?  Poor in the country of the Phillipines or everywhere?  Your "poorly" posed question will not get you the answer you think it will.  Expound on your question and maybe you'll get a decent answer.  The way you state your question as it is now is insulting to those of Filipino heritage.

I think the i.d system would work for Filipinos because of the terrorist organisations over there that seem to be just a face in the crowd. the N.P.A or New Peoples Army hide themselves as upstanding citizens but now and then blow up the odd bus or ship. You also have Moro Islamic Liberation Front that are in peace talks and the Abu Sayaff Islamists which are not. The only thing is that if you get asked for your i.d card in Filippines, you cant say sorry i left it at home as you are likely to get beaten and thrown in a filthy prison for months before they get around to confirming your i.d. Oh i forgot also that your cute

The islands have been known to be part of the Philippines Islands... and nobody cared. Now however, there is the possibility there maybe oil over there. Bringing China and Vietnam into the picture. In fact a few Filipinos actually lived there subsisting mostly by fishing. \n\nHistory has shown again and again that regardless of International Law, possession and power decides ownership. Witness Brunei, a possession of the Sultanate of Sulu and by extension the Philippines. This terrritory was rented in perpetuity by Great Britain for something like $30,000 Malaysian a year. The Philippines tried unsuccessfully to assert ownership thru the International Court. \n\nIf the pattern continues, then China will most likely prevail, unless the Philippines could creatively checkmate it.

it is a social phenomenon associated with the out-migration of the skilled/professional members of the population which results in a lack of the same in the societies which they leave behind. for instance, nurses from the philippines go to the united kingdom or the united states primarily because they believe they will be better compensated in these countries for the practice of their professions. if many nurses from the philippines will migrate to other countries, the health sector of the philippines will suffer the loss of nurses and might, in the future face a lack of nurses, thus edangering the capacity of the society to meet its health needs.

The Phillipines have been under the rule of the Spanish for 333 (1565 to 1898). Within that span of time, the Spanish culture have been immersed greatly with the native culture. Such had been the case with the British colonization of America as well.\n\nThe official language, by the way, is called Tagalog.

Ala-eh magandang umaga!  I'm an American...have many Filipinos working for me aboard my ship...some are from Batangas...Batangueños are hard-working, smart, and funny, just like all Filipinos (and Filipinas).  Would love to go there some day.

People from the Philippines work in other countries to have a better life. Their country is full of corrupt politicians so it's getting robbed of it's wealth, and the economy worsens every year.\n\nI believe these people have the prerogative to do what they want to better themselves as long as it's legal. I have worked with filipinos and they are educated and learned people. I also know that US hospitals like to hire them because they can assign these people everywhere because of their training. A lot of these people came to this country legally and are being hired as Nurses, Doctors, Architects, Engineers, Teachers, Accountants, and etc.\n\nI also dislike what our friend, RENZ here is saying. That's a racist statement. You shouldn't discriminate people base on their race and country of origin. I presume the reason why you hate these people so much as to warn other readers is because you have been spurned by one. I wouldn't be surprised either if he/she left you because you don't sound like a likeable person, and the stench of hatred emanates from you.\n\nI have spent years in Asia and met a lot of people from different countries and am proud to say that Filipinos are very warm hearted and generous people. Even if they don't have much food on their plates, they would gladly share it with you. Even the poorest people I met would offer to share their food with me. I also have American friends married to Filipinos and they would be the first to tell you that you are very much mistaken about these people.\n\nAbout those people working in Japan as "sluts", I believe that the world has sluts everywhere, and there would be sluts as long as there are perverts willing to pay for the services. They come in different race and colors too if you didn't notice.\n\nWith regards to those working abroad illegaly, it's their choice, their risks and their thoughts of living in fear that one day they would be caught and sent back home. For the meantime, they earn their living and send money home to buy food. \n\nI am for people living and working legally wherever they are. I am for honest living. And NO, I am not a Filipino, nor am I married to one.I am an American who for years worked side by side with these people, and they never cease to amaze me because of their dedication for work. Overtime, my admiration grew for their kind, And guess what? These people I know speak good English too, and their sons and daughters excels in their schools.

As I grow, I am learning different traits of a Filipino that I'm gradually obtaining.\n\nFor me, the factors are experience, knowledge about the Filipino culture and of course relationship on them.
