SIMPLE LIFE in the PHILIPPINES

Many are dreaming to work overseas or migrate to other countries for a greener pasture which we can't blame them because of the current economy in the Philippines. In the history it used to be one of the richest countries in the world but now where does Philippines stand? Full of debts that even our "nail grandkids" have to pay them. Is there any chance that Philippines will stand out again? Why filipinos are dreaming to go to other countries?
Simply because opportunities in our own country is very limited.

When you ask most of the nursing students why they are taking the said course, I bet huge percentage is to go to US. Though in fact that's not the career they wanted to do in life. Correct me if am wrong but this is my opinion some of them are just force to take the course as a key to work overseas. There is once a kid in a tv show whom being asked why does she want to be a nurse and she said to work here in our hospital and take care of the sick people. Again there is a follow up question why not go to other country? She again said, almost everyone (nurses) wants to go to the US what about those sick filipinos? Who will take care of them? I hope this little kid wont change her mind as she see the reality in life.

Despite of all these, simple life in the Philippines is still the best. There is no place like home as we say, the rich culture and the simple life yet lack of everything. Many suffer but working to survive, I bet if there is enough jobs in our own country many would love to stay and not many cases of abused nannies from other countries.
