philippines?

my social studies teacher hust told us how ugly philippines is. She told us that filipinos are brown monkeys not only because of their skin but also because the way foreigners treat us. She told us that some elevators in hongkong has a label that says "no pets and filipinos allowed." It hurts and I cant believe she would say that to her own country. She told us that she would rather leave in Vietnam and sierra leone than to live in the phiippines.She told us that philippines is the worst christian country in the world. We all know that Philippines is famous for their hospitality and she agrees and she told us that we were just show offs to others to look impressive. She said that Philippines isnt really worth dying for. Shes not even impressed with the great accomplishments the country has done saying that Africa can also do better than that. I think shes a racist. How would you feel?

    While she is entitled to her opinion, I'd like to see her say that in public.

    Post her name and school and we shall report that to their principal or DECS supervisor.

    She deserves to get the boot for that.

    SHE IS NOT FIT TO BE A TEACHER.....

    Her hurtful self loathing diatribe should be reported to the authorities and she should never be allowed to vomit her filth on students again.

    Her ignorance is criminal.....starting with simple untruth and progressing to gross ignorance.

    First monkeys have white skin not brown skin. Her ignorance does not stop with zoology. While some foreigners do treat Filipinos badly that neither verifies her statement nor excuses her ignorance.

    While I doubt the truth of her Hong Kong fairy tale it would only verify the the stupidity and prejudice of the hotel management. Study your Philippine history and the truth will set you free ( go to http://hughs-kojak.blogspot.com/... I have addressed this subject many times)

    I hope she moves to Vietnam or Sierra Leone. America often exports their garbage; why not the Philippines.

    "Worst christian country in the world".....What the hell does that mean? That is like saying, "Diamonds are the worst gem stones in the world" How can being the worst of something GOOD....be bad? She is an idiot.

    So everything good about the Philippines is a fake meant to impress others. That every great accomplishment of Filipinos could be duplicated by any backward African nation. Her ignorance is only matched by her ugly twisted racist soul and both are a disgrace. She knows little or nothing about her own history, her own people. She deserves no respect.

    im kinda a Filipino (half) but i cant believe she could say that look at all the heroes even my dad (not Filipino) thinks the phil.is doing great progress..... i would feel very hurt and my mother is a filipino and she is not a brown monkey.. some Filipinos are better than people from other countries. she probably said that because some people here around in the philippines are lazy.. ok ive said enough.

  • Some people are entitled to their opinion, but being a social studies teacher, she really should be more careful about broadcasting something that sensitive to her students. Her job is to shape young minds and saying things like that about her own country does not help one bit.

    There are a million things to love about the Philippines. Our country is abundant in natural resources, our businesses are thriving and our people are naturally warm and friendly. There is no place like it in the world. I've lived in the US and in Singapore. Yes, they're very nice places and they can give you some things that the Philippines can't, but I always come home. And until the day I die, I will always call the Philippines my home.

    I really can't believe that was said by a fellow Filipino, especially a teacher. Tell her to get out of the country if she thinks the Philippines is ugly. If there is one thing that is ugly in the Philippines, it is definitely her. Last one thing, advise your principal to have your teacher's mental health checked, it might do her good.

    maybe, just maybe .... your teacher is in the moronic level of intelligence.

    1st, shave a monkey the skin was white.

    2nd, in hongkong there were lots of Filipino elevator operators and technicians.

    3rd, tell her to go to Vietnam and meet the Vietcongs. And go to Sierra Leone to see how slavery works in process.

    4th, Philippines might be a worst Christian country but it still enjoys the freedom of religion. In some countries atheism was their main belief.

    5th, If Philippines is not worth dyeing for, ask some US veterans for the Asia Pacific during WW2 how their friends died in battle in the Philippines.

    and

    6th, great accomplishments in Africa? Ask the UNICEF and WHO about AIDS.

    Maybe she's from Vietnam or Sierra Leone? Next time, voice record her statement and send it to the media.

    Most racists are ignorant. They rant about other races even without knowing the facts. They only judge people on what they saw on tv. Well, I think we should blame television because they are the number one source of those information. For your teacher, goodluck for her career. I think she should sell some fruitcakes to her neighbors instead of teaching. And by the way, there are lots of good things in the Philippines in which some countries envy's. Number one is freedom - it's nothing more can be ask by a man to live a full life.

    If Philippines is ugly, why the hell this foreign countries invade us anyway?
