RE: POVERTY: Who you want to blame, Government or People?
The problem is that the Filipinos are not very smart, or most of them. For example you can offer a Filipino to do a business. His income would much a higher as he ever had, for example 1 million peso in any 3-6 month.
But.
For this he have to do something. He have to offer the price of his product for a very low price. For example, he produce a bamboo product. He sell is for 7000 peso. His expensis is the materials, it's less then 1 k, some current, it's less the 200 and the employee, it's maybe 300-500. If you tell him. You will give him 2500 and that's already good for this product, then the owner would already have a income after all expense.
And you tell him that you will try to market his product for free and you give him later a companies share if you will sell the product for example for 10.000.
But
The Filipino can not think. They having difficulties to use her brain. Or some most of them.
He will tell you that he will sell you for 5500.
If you tell him that you would buy one month later 300 pieces more, he is not able to understand that he could make a big business.
The Filipinos are poor because they are not using here brain, sadly I have to say that.
So first point is to bring education into that country. Brain training and teach to get knowledge to the people.
You can see in small stores people who are maybe 30 years old and they need a calculator to addition 70 + 5 x 7 + 100.
About the other thing what you said about the population. First point is to bring education to the people that they stop believing at god and the church. The church done a bad job, happy that they told some years before its okay to use protection.
Teach the people that's it's better to look for a job or do some any small business as to. Pray whole life for anything. They pray, thank you god for the food but he didn't done that. Some business man who are landlords doing farming, they pay some employees to plant and harvest the fruits or the rice and the employee working hard. So maybe better pray for the employees healthy and that the landlord will be always a good boss.
The Filipinos are not able to think about the future. They want to make a fast money, and that's they directly spend, they burn the garbage in front of the house and they didn't think about to bring the garbage 200 meters beside at the street into the public garbage box. I mean come on, did they reply don't know that it's smelling bad and is very dangerous for healthy and will affect a cancer.
The government is everywhere worldwide the same. In Germay they are same corrupt or not as in the Philippines.
This kind of racist bro. I'm sorry I just have to say it
