What is a good Tagalog language newspaper and magazine subscription for my wife?
Hello.
My wife is 41 and from the Philippines. We have two small children.
What is a good magazine in the Tagalog language to order a subscription for her? I think a magazine with a monthly subscription would be best. Where is a good place to order it from?
Also, what is a good Tagalog newspaper--maybe I can order her Sunday edition only to have shipped to our USA address. Where can I order?
I want the language to be in Tagalog and not in English.
Miraming Salamat Po! (thank you very much!)

I regularly read the Philippine Star newspaper and they have a Tagalog version – Pilipino Star Ngayon. You can contact them for subscription. Here is the link:

If your wife loves television at home, you can also contact Direct TV, they have a Filipino package where you get the major Manila TV networks bunched in one offering among them ABS-CBN and GMA and some radio stations. Your children can easily pick up Tagalog through TV so this is one good option for you.
Salamat and Mabuhay.
That would be very expensive to begin with unless money is not an objection.
You can get free newspaper from any Filipino oriental stores which sometimes they have one to three different kinds. There are a lot features plus she can go to the internet and read news directly in Tagalog.
Most of the magazines now in the Philippines are written in English language unless otherwise you want to subscribe comics for her written in Tagalog.
There aren’t that much "good" Tagalog magazines, unless your wife likes Filipino showbiz, which would be a huge waste of money by the way. For news paper I would either recommend Philippine Star, Manila Bulletin or The Inquirer. Philippine newspapers are rarely in Tagalog, the only Tagalog ones I know are dirty tabloids.
