Also remember, common sense is not very common.

 

You see glimpse once in awhile; I was on the bus the other week and a Filipino probably around 18 or 19 gave up his seat twice; once to a cute girl and the other to a middle aged woman.

There are tons of things to get frustrated by, there is a website devoted to it (some pretty funny stuff too). One reason I am going to start looking for a job and get away from the place, many things to love but I am not ready to stay here full time quite yet; plus at 45 I think I have a few more good years of work in me.

It is a known fact, proven by the Filipino Governmental Systems, and reigning clans that when there is no rice in your bowl you do not worry about internet speed, how much your politicians are fleecing you or if the judicial system works..... "Thank you Sir, can I have more rice and can I kiss you @ss again so i can taste more flavor on my white rice...." The system of poverty and how it works on the public and the nation as a whole in the Philippines.
Ever notice how many wild animals are here in the natural areas of the Philippines, including song birds? "It it is moves.. eat it" was one of my last Filipinos landlords favorite quotes.

 

My friend is contracted Hepatitis A spending about a week in the hospital. I am not sure where this is Hygiene or safety, but his doctor told him it was most likely from the food he ate. He avoided the street food vendors, but ate a number of times at one of the resto-bars reviewed here and said he would never eat there again. It seems like the fish and squid in particularly was just laid out in the open air until someone buys it for a meal. He felt he had gotten bad food from the food storage systems here.

Possibly food handling, it hard to tell where the food has been stored until it comes in front of our eyes, should be part of the reviews. Non refrigerated food can be a problems for some

Again there are shots that can be taken to reduce the chances of Hepatitis A and other diseases prevalent here. I got mine 3 years ago before arriving here, but I will have to review the need for booster shots at this time.
