6. Ben: But by buying local, you’re not just getting a product; you’re supporting our economy and preserving our culture. Anna: I’m curious. Why do Filipinos seem to prefer imported goods over locally made products?

7. 7. Colonial Mentality Reason: One of the most significant flaws we have as a nation is our colonial mentality, a preference for all things foreign over our own, a negative trait we acquired from our days under the Spanish and the Americans. As a result, we Filipinos have been imbued with the misconception that our culture is inferior to our past colonizers.

11. 9.  Bahala Na  Attitude REASON: Filipinos are being Religious. Roughly translated as “come what may,” Filipinos’ version of fatalism is the belief in leaving everything to the hands of fate. T his attitude is still a double-edged sword. On the one hand, positive aspects of this behavior include belief in Divine Providence and national social responsibility. On the other hand, the attitude can also promote a sense of helplessness and resignation of one’s fate at the local level and a countrywide lack of empathy and collective action on the national level.

MIA: (concerned) But won’t that compromise the quality of our project? Jessica: Not if we cut corners strategically. We can allocate more funds to the visible aspects of our project and skimp on the less noticeable details. Sam: I don’t know, guys. This feels morally questionable.

13. 10. Corruption

14. 10. Corruption Reason: “ culture of corruption” is embedded deep within our system and reinforced by a complex web of economic and social factors, which include personal ambitions and a twisted sense of loyalty to friends and kin. The Philippines is in for a long haul if our officials and we do not eliminate this harmful habit.

Sarah: I found out that you’ve been texting another woman, and it’s making me question our relationship. The texts are intimate, and it feels like emotional betrayal. Mike : Oh, Sarah, men and women can be friends without it meaning. You’re blowing this out of proportion.

16. Sarah : But would you feel the same way if were texting another man, sharing personal details and secrets with him? Mike: Well, no, I wouldn’t be comfortable with that. It’s different for women. Sarah: Exactly, Mike! Why is it acceptable for you to have close relationships with other women, but not for me to have the same with men?

17. 11. Maintaining Double Standards

18. Maintaining Double Standards REASON: Filipinos are hypocrites to the core. This behavior can be observed in just about every sector of Philippine society.

19. 12. Excessive Partying

20. Now  there’s nothing wrong with enjoying a fiesta  and party now and then; it’s just that we Filipinos tend to overdo it.  Birthdays, anniversaries, graduations, and even sad funerals are celebrated by Filipinos like there is no tomorrow. Sometimes we even make up the slightest of reasons so that we can have an excuse to party. Moreover,  a host would sometimes even strain his finances   to impress his guests . As for fiestas, every LGU down to the smallest barangay in the country has a fiesta to celebrate. As we said, it’s alright to party, but we should focus on austerity and working hard first.
