I’m an American and too much blood sweat and tears has been expended to abandon her.

I also notice that there is no mention of islamderthals.

The Philippines is an archipelago comprising 7,107 islands. Unless you’re at that specific locale, the flooding shouldn’t effect you. I’m currently in Mississippi. The floods in California really don’t do much to me, yet they are in the United States.

Top that off by recognizing that the US could not have had more loyal and fierce fighting partners against the imperial japanese invaders.

My father gained lifelong friendships with the guerillas and their families after the war, having run operations for th coastwatchers (many a brave man was discovered later by radio triangulation, and beheaded—and the partisans wreaked their vengance on the japanese who did this and to the japanese soldiers permanent horror and fear).

The descendants of these heros are God loving and God fearing, and with the exception of crazy islamics and a few commie outfits— largely beautiful friendly people. We pulled Clark Base, to our utter detriment— as the chicoms continue to encroach building bases on Phillipine islands.

Uh, no thanks.
Our forefathers fought to establish the greatest country the world has ever known.
I’m proud of it and I’ll stay and fight it out.

Um, yeah, nope.

I’m generally not in favor of being murdered in a turd world country. My company has two facilities there, and no one wants to visit either. My wife is from Laos, and visiting there is a nightmare in itself.

I had a friend who claimed he left for Italy in protest of what’s happening here. I called him a coward for for running away from problems here and doing nothing to get this country back on track.

Mostly, these claims are for older males looking for a piece of tail and cheap servants.

Yep. The crime sucks. Bars in windows.. etc. And you can’t buy property.

Working with Filipinos here in FL...this is not much different than what I hear from them.

Many Filipinos, even after becoming US citizens, retire to the Phillipines....because they really can live “like a King”

Personally, I could not retire in the Phillipines....it is quite hot and humid all year...and the reason I want out of Florida. Sweating to death in December is not fun. I am willing to trade some cold weather for some dry weather

I’m happy for the gentleman, if he has the life he wants, but it doesn’t sound at all appealing to me. For one thing, there’s something deeply pathetic about a man of nearly 70’s rhapsodizing over the low cost and easy availability of young Asian women.

As I understand it, not all parts of the Philippines are hot & humid. Someone told me that many of the upper elevations are quite nice, plus there is air conditioning in most every building.
