When a Filipino meets a fellow Filipino, they ask one another, "Where do you work right now? Bit when a Chinese meets another, they jump to asking each other, "What's your business right now?"

When I read your post, I readily understood your point. Filipino's are looking for work and will work until they can no more work. Chinese people (according to your post) are businessmen who owns business and hires Filipinos, who are good at work, to work for them.
You are right, my friend. What online business are you in right now? Please note, I'm not chinese but think like one, I suppose!

I understand what you are trying to say. That is very true. Chinese especially those in the Philippines are business-minded. They are trained early to save and get education so that in the future they could put up their own business. Filipinos on the other hand, are trained to be educated so they could land a better job and save after having a job.We are slowly learning from the rich Tsinoys.Entrepreunership is now being promoted by the government. Hopefully we will be bitten by the entrepreneurship bug.

Yeah Much Filipino are workers and seldom are businessman so they will ask about it.Its wierd but honestly Filipinos are versatile also but lots of them are socially ill. They are not happy for other's success but they are proud to be what they are and have a strong family ties. that was seldom truth as of now.

hehe well chineses are know to have businesses. but i guess not all anymore. maybe they have started out well and have started as workers too, saved money and put uip their own businesses.
i know many filipinos who have capabilities to start their own business but is contented with their work because they say they have more security that way. financially speaking and not having to risk on their would be businesses.

Hello martgin :)
With your statement, I can conclude that its really very easy for Filipinos to find a job (whether for a Chinese, Americans, etc) because they love doing a job. They learn a job easily and have an excellent output. Filipinos are also generally happy-people that's why they like working with co-workers instead of spending the hours by themselves, contemplating about business ideas. Also often, Filipinos are not generally asked "what is your business now" because most doesn't have capital required to start a business that they like.
