knowing a host country

yeah he may be right, in fact there are I think more then 20 reasons to hate our country, but there are hundreds more to like it, so I would not mind him if I were you not unless it was a general consensus of all the foreigners who had been here and interacted with the people, perhaps the just want views and more views if you compare it with why he likes it " frankly my dear, I don't give a damn" much less waste my time giving him importance. To mind him would give him importance, and in my opinion that is what he needs cause he lacks it

I wasn't able to watch the youtube yet but then all I can say is that if he doesn't like our country then he must go back to his homeland. He is one of the few foreigners that I've heard about bad things of the Philippines.

If you try to watch his video with an open mind, the things that he posted that he hated are exactly the same ones that most Filipinos hate. Do you like open manholes? People peeing anywhere they like? Cockroaches? I know a lot of Filipinos felt like he was lam bashing the country with his list of things that he hates about our country, but these are facts. Instead of getting angry at him, why can't we just fix these things that he listed as the things that he hates? It's like eating at a restaurant. It is your favorite restaurant but there are flies, cockroaches and rats about. The bathroom smells. Do you keep quiet about it? Chances are you will do the exact same thing he did and post it online in any way you can. And your reason for doing so? So that the restaurant can clean up and invite new customers in. We should always look at something in a positive light, even if it mean that someone is rubbing our faults in our face.

well, some people are frank and candid on what they see. they talk about what they see without consideration of possible reaction from the others. but some people do this in good faith, in the hope that improvements will be done to these things. i appreciate the video and what he says there. now we know where we have to improve and do something.

I suppose it could be he misses his home country and the way it was there. He may have made the video when he first moved and was not liking the transition. I watch a vlogger from time to time who migrated from Canada to Taiwan and while at first he didn't seem to like it too much he was open minded about why.

i've seen the video and although there is some truth to it, i still hate it. i wonder why he's still here, he ought to go back in his own country if he dislikes it here!!! i can think of more than 20 reasons in a matter of minutes why i like philippines!!!

I cannot comment on this...where's the link please :)

It is a one man's misguided opinion on the Philippines. What's the big deal about having potholes in the street and crazy public transport drivers? It is the same in other countries and more so considering the number of road accidents. Another thing I don't really understand is the big issue on the whitening products. If someone is not comfortable having the deep brown complexion, it is not a sin to make oneself more pleasing as long as you have the means to purchase the product for your own benefit. We never made a big issue from the tanning saloons in other countries. This Jimmy individual has a "hate list" on the country. If he is not happy staying in a developing country, no one is forcing him to suffer the inconveniences. Why stay in a country for than 3 years if you are experiencing difficulties? I don't get it.

I have seen the video and could not finish it. Although I know it's his opinion, i still feel its very unfair. He makes it look like the philippines is the worst place to be in. In fact, I have been in sydney and there are also some places that are not up to his standard. I am currently in Bangkok, and his complaint regarding sanitation, traffic and Filipinos obsession with whitening is can be found here also. Actually the whitening obsession, I am confused here in Bangkok because most of them are fair skinned.
