Shouldn't you be more proud of your National language? You should have your own identity instead of trying to be like foreigners.

We just came up with the discussion a few weeks back about Filipinos who have mixed marriages with foreign individuals and is now residing in the US to call themselves hypothetically Filipinos or Pinoys for that matter. According to the Philippine constitution, those who are natural born citizen of the Philippines are the Filipinos. Iyon mga pinanganak sa ating bansa, so now is the question what about those who were born outside the Philippines yet have either one or both parents to be a US citizen? Are they still Filipinos just because one of their parents is a Filipino? That is the problem with our culture, we are loosing it. Some of the people here in the forum are in the US at the moment and probably born there, that is why speaking Tagalog or Pilipino language is too hard for them, like slang slang na Tag-galog. Their skin is fair and white, their looks doesn't resemble a Filipino looks because they have mixed blood already. And we call them Pinoys? Even Jose Rizal is not Filipino by blood, according to history books he has Chinese ancestors. Yet he speaks 7 languages and his native tongue is of course, Spanish, yet we call him the great Filipino hero. Ang gulo. Sino nga bang matatawag na Pinoys at this age & time? This is the disaster of our early ancestors, if only MLQ didn't requested for the Philippines independence from the US after the second world war probably we are still a part or province of the US. Well most Filipinos are in the US if you do not know, New York, Seattle, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Chicago etc...so their life is better off than those Filipinos not in the US at the moment. Those Filipinos in the Middle East and in Saudi who work as domestice helper and living like slave to an Arab families who eventually end up being rape or worst being killed by their employer. A thousand cases every year. If we are a State of the US would anybody come to Saudi or Dubai for that matter? None I suppose.
