Everything Is Worst?

     Sad to say that everything is worst in the Philippines, I say that as a returning OFW who worked in Malaysia and Singapore for about 30 years. Manila is developed maybe but it is overcrowded, overpopulated and dirty that I can't blame this Hollywood actor who once said rats are running around the streets. Once you go to the provinces, there is no development, unemployment is rampant, and the population is dirt poor. Thus when government officials come to bring cash, it's a relief but what they don't know is that they are selling their souls and the future of this country.

Jobs and employment should be better for the people

     The Filipinos are a talented lot, very intelligent and skilled, remaining untapped to grow the country to be among the best in Southeast Asia. Countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia are much better politically and economically. If this country is led by a President who is visionary and for the people and supported by leaders of the same ilk, it can reach greater heights. What today is the leaders supporting the President and the President himself are all after their own interests, it's never the interest of the poor people.

     I saw these top lists of countries, and they are true. I don't need thorough studies to prove them. Unfortunately, they are the wrong lists to be included among the top.

Manila is I'll managed

Wrong priorities and values 

Is this something to be proud of?

     Metro Manila, where the Philippine capital city is, has the worst traffic in the world, and it does not surprise me. Last time, as an OFW, every time I go back for holiday, I would spend 3-5 hours in the jam before I can reach home, that sometimes I would say it took faster for my flight from Singapore to Manila than travel by car to my house from the airport.
     This list I agree to the fullest.
Very, very true
