I'm serious. People who have been there before, back me up on this. Everything works better in japan, people are nicer, women are better looking, things work the way they're supposed to, cooler cell phones, no stupid liquor laws, you can get Whiskey from vending machines, amazing public transportation, the Shinkansen, no machismo, don't have to worry about who has a gun, awesome clubs where women actually look feminine (Asian women are soooooooooooo hot) , arcades (yes, in Japan they still have them ) hanami, nomikais, no Republicans, etc.

PHILIPPINES = MALAYKO

We belong to Malay race but we're now internationally raced by different nationality, a bit confused caused by rampant cross breeding by our fellow Filipinos, Isn't that cute, when somebody asks you what country you belong from , just say "MALAYKO"

1. You shall not kill.
2. The road shall be for you a means of communion between people and not of mortal harm.
3. Courtesy, uprightness and prudence will help you deal with unforeseen events.
4. Be charitable and help your neighbor in need, especially victims of accidents.
5. Cars shall not be for you an expression of power and domination, and an occasion of sin.
6. Charitably convince the young and not so young not to drive when they are not in a fitting condition to do so.
7. Support the families of accident victims.
8. Bring guilty motorists and their victims together, at the appropriate time, so that they can undergo the liberating experience of forgiveness.
9. On the road, protect the more vulnerable party.
10. Feel responsible toward others.

In the Phils. "kung sino ang naka-nguso" (1st in an intersection) has the right of way. No offense meant.

How does China think they own the government of Taiwan?

Do they have any legal grounds for this "claim"

Why can China control the destiny of the 23 million people Taiwanese people?

I work for an organization that spent about $2.8M into the Philippines in 2006 and a little bit more by the end of this year, by way of programs and projects in education and healthcare.

I know that China (PRC) claims that Taiwan is theirs. Also, I know that Taiwan likes to call itself "The Republic of China" but China does not want this because of the "One China Policy". In the Olympics, Asian Games, etc. do you notice that Taiwan is designated as "Chinese Taipei"? Why won't China allow the use of "Taiwan"? Is there really a possibility that Taiwan will become independent?

And, allow me to add another question:
Why is Singapore so strict? I mean, I understand that they want to keep their country clean, but why the strict rules, like banning chewing gum?

If Taiwan and its allies (US, UK, AU, Japan) stand up and recognize Taiwan as the nation of Taiwan, What would happen? Can Taiwanese ever gain the freedom they have been waiting for for over a 110 years?

I know, in the Philippines, it's a sign of respect to your elders. In some countries, the women walk behind their husbands as a gesture of respect. But it all gets to a point when it all sound so fake and can easily be interpreted as butt-kissing.
I watched an interview of a common Filipino (tagalog-speaking) on CNN once. The man kept using po and opo so repetitively, it got teeth-grindingly annoying.
I visited a Jollibee branch here in Makati yesterday and a kid, who was about 2 or 3 years younger than me kept adding "po" to everything addressed to me.
Maybe if we limit the use of "Po" and Opo" to our elderly in the family, it would be ok. I just do not think it's necessary to use these words when conversing to the police, teachers, politicians, customers (if you work in the fast-food industry, for example), etc...

What do you think?
