Opinion
• One thing that I find interesting is how the Philippines aren’t wealthy country and there is poverty surrounding everyone. But they are so happy there and that is why a lot of people choose to stay there when given the chance to leave.
• One thing I don’t like is how there are terrorists out there disturbing the peace. For example, there are terrorist bombings that are costing innocent lives.
Opinion Cont.
• I would not like to live in the Philippines I think I would have too hard of a time adjusting to a whole new culture.But I would like to visit there one day. I have heard a lot of cool things about the Philippines from my friends in California. I would visit there but not live there.
