Best Posts in Thread: Dumaguete City to discipline unruly foreigners.

I don't feel guilty, because another expat act stupid, like I don't say all filipino are racist, because a few are. I keep distance to foreigner with bad behavior. A few times I told another expat, take a deep breath, and get oxygen to your brain, we are guest here, no matter how many years we have lived here.

 

Just don't give the authorities to reason to think bad of us. Persons who travel here, should be seen to be trustworthy and with manners (Good Ones)!

 

if someone sh...ts in my garden I punish him and kick him out. thats why I understand and support the attitude of the local Filipino people here. a guest should follow the written and unwritten rules of his guest country. traffic violations is one thing and might be discussable, but abuse of women, minors, alcohol excesses in public etc is a no go - everyone of us knows some kind of these lunatics and nobody will miss them when they get deported. they ruin the reputation of all of us.
just one remark to the article in the chronicle. it starts with "government closes boracay" and this has nothing to do with rude behaviour of foreigners. it's about non-existing waste water management and illegal constructions in the environmental protection area. I just wish the local government would take the right actions in these issues here also.
because, all in all, everybody should have to follow the law, in all sections.

 

Wild dogs is a problem human race created, so we solves the problem with throw boiling water at them, are you serious ? Have you seen how the suffer ? Of course, it's not okay kick a dog in a leash, but it's f*cking inhuman throw boiling water at anything alive, period.

 

An article in the Negros Chronicle due to some incidents involving foreigners being abusive towards the locals.

I agree with your comments 100%.
Too many expats think the Philippines owes them something.
We are guests in their country-if you don't like it then leave!!

 

So we all need drive a Honda wave, and wear white socks up to the knees in sandals? If not, we will be deported ha ha. I don't see anything wrong in old guys follow their dream and get a Harley, room around in a group and have fun. I like biking to, don't have a big bike, but consider buy one and not a Harley, like the speed on a sportbike. I'm my own boss, so don't go biking in groups, but sometimes with a few friends, great way to come around and see more of the beautiful Philippines.

 

What about the foreigners that get about wearing what looks like gangster patches on their backs ?
now they just look like twats, and should just go back to whence they came, they are a blight on the landscape and a bad reflection on the good foreigners, there is no need for that type, maybe the authorities might like to target them ?

 

As an expat --- Personally, I think that a huge percentage more are good actor expats than bad. Unfortunately, it is the bad actors that get the spotlight. I try to drive sanely in the midst of the chaos, I stop for people crossing the street, when there is an unending line of cars and somebody is trying to make a turn - I stop and wave them through even though all the cars behind me start honking at me for being considerate, I only park where I should park, I support local business and I tip generously. The thing that bugs me is being referred to as "a guest". I guess the government could kick me out if they wanted to, but I have my permanent residency, I've purchased a substantial property, I have a wife and family from here, I contribute socially and to the economy, I treat everybody I meet with respect - I have chosen this place to be my home, and this is where I live - it bugs me as my button issue when I am told I don't really understand, and my opinions don't matter, and to be looked down on as being only just a guest.
