Filipinos are only good at PRs. Yes, magaling lang tayo magyabang, but in reality, we are lagging behind other countries in almost every aspect.
Imagine, "we give the world our best!" yet we can't give our own countrymen the best of the world.
Many of these people are OFWs whose remittances significantly boost our economy. Yet, we see them sleeping on floors while waiting for their flights because NAIA lacks adequate facilities. Airlines are used to doing flight delays.
Why can Singapore, a country smaller than the Philippines, provide the best airport service?
This is because we are trapped in a system that not everyone chooses to challenge. When some do, others simply dismiss them by saying, "At least we have this."
Filipinos are really good at settling for less— like “okay na ito, kahit papaano meron,” “maging grateful ka nalang puro ka reklamo,” at “ganyan talaga, wala na tayong magagawa!”
We should not accept this situation. We should demand the best, just as we give our best to the country.
