Ugaling Pinoy

Bakit karamihan ng pinoy galit sa kapwa pinoy at matatapang pero takot sa ibang lahi? Please share your not so good experience so we can analyse what is happening to us fellow Filipinos here in Australia or kahit sa ibang bansa.....

    sakto kabayan.... minsan nga sila sila nlang naguusap kapwa pinoy English pa rin, okay lang sana yun kung dun sila masaya eh, baka nman ngppractice sa exam sa ielts understandable, pero kung tagalog ka kinausap, utang na loob sana tagalog din response LOL

    Meron ako nakilala dito sa Sg ng ugaling talangka... ung tipong pag medyo nakakaangat ka na ng konti sa kanya eh i-didiscourage ka na nya. Nauna sya nagapply ng visa tapos parang nung nalaman nya na medyo umuusad na ung application ko parang kung ano anong balita and sinasabi sa kin na kesyo mahirap magapply ng visa kasi magbbago na naman ng ruling ang dibp at ung mga requirements ng states mahirap daw kesyo may mga kaibigan daw sya na na-deny na ng state sponsorship. ayun buti di ako nagpaapekto..ngayon wala na ko balita sa kanya hehehehe. God bless him/her na lng.

    @LittleFinger wala naman akong naranasan na matinding issue dito sa SG bukod dun sa dati kong main tenant na nagsabing yung mga kilala daw niyang lumilipat sa Australia, mga jologs yung trabaho. She's working sa retail ng isang high-end brand, dahil ba branded siya? Haha. So di ko alam kung san niya napulot yung statement niya.

    Kaya ang lagi ko tinatandaan, mag-ingat sa ibang lahi, pero mas mag-ingat sa kalahi. Sila pa kasi minsan magpapahamak and hihila sayo pababa.

    @Luntian12 nung panahon na 2008 na bago pa lang kame sa SG. may mga mangilan ngilan na maayabang na pinoy. nowadays bihira na ko makakita ng mga pasaway na pinoy. siguro dahil na rin sa hirap ng buhay at panget na tingin ng mga local satin.

    AY! may naalala ako! kilalang pinoy taga Singtel na Engineer. kalamo sinu umasta lakas mambully ng vendor! hahaha. pero baka trabaho lang. d ko cya kilala outside the office pero kala mo kung sinu talaga ang taas ng tingin sa sarili.

    @LittleFinger ewan ko dun. Mapangmata lang talaga siya. haha! Nung nakabili siya ng sasakyan sa Pinas ang mga linyahan niya "Ikaw nagtatricycle pa din, ako nakaMontero na". Nakapost pa resibo nung pinangdownpayment niya. Eh di wow! Hahaha!

    Yung sarat na ilong talaga yung naging basehan eh noh? Hahaha! Maraming ganyan, lalo na kapag naging citizen na. Kung makadeny na Pinoy sila wagas.

    @Admin naging PR nung 2007 yung kilala ko. Di ko din alam anong pinagyayabang. Buti nga lately, medyo nabawasan na. haha! Natatakot na din umasta-asta mga Pinoy dito sa SG kasi nga anytime, pwede tayong awayin ng local, isumbong and baka mapatalsik dito, mawalan pa ng trabaho.

    @Luntian12 grabe naman yun maka comment ng "jologs." Ang importante nag tatrabaho ng marangal at walang ibang taong inaapakan. Sigurado ako na yung mga taong sinabihan nya ng jologs e yun pa ang masaya at kuntento sa buhay nila ngayon.

    @LittleFinger uso rin sa mga pana ang hilahan pababa lalo na sa trabaho. Actually mas napapansin ko to sa kanila. Or baka swerte lang ako dahil wala pa akong nakikilalang mayabang na pinoy dito sa SG.

    @Luntian12 grabe naman yun maka comment ng "jologs." Ang importante nag tatrabaho ng marangal at walang ibang taong inaapakan. Sigurado ako na yung mga taong sinabihan nya ng jologs e yun pa ang masaya at kuntento sa buhay nila ngayon.

    @LittleFinger uso rin sa mga pana ang hilahan pababa lalo na sa trabaho. Actually mas napapansin ko to sa kanila. Or baka swerte lang ako dahil wala pa akong nakikilalang mayabang na pinoy dito sa SG.

    mkikita mo yan pag dating mo dito mga typical na pinoy, ang maaasahan mo lang ung mga dati mo ng kaibigan jan sa SG at pinas na nandito rin, ung mga nauna na dito maybe 10 yrs ahead stin, naku titingnan ka mula ulo hanggang paa. haha

    @LittleFinger nakaugalian nalang talaga ng mga Pinoy yan. Papano sa atin, within the family palang, kapag may family reunions, naguungusan kung sino mas maganda ang buhay. Kaya minsan, nadadala hanggang sa pagtanda and pati sa labas ng bansa.

    Hindi lahat ng umiiwas sa mga Pinoy mapagmataas. Marami din kasi talaga naka experience ng negative sa mga kapwa pinoy kaya medyo cautious silang makisalamuha.

    Nung unang salta ko dito, pakiramdam ko super matulungin at welcoming mga Filipino communities. Kung saan saang religious activities at parties ako iniintroduce. Pagkatagalan na-realize ko na madami sa kanila nagpa plastikan lang sa isa't isa, nag-aawayan, nagki-criticize, nag-iinggitan, naghihilahan pababa, nagti-tsismisan etc etc. lalo na mga babaeng Pinay andaming drama sa buhay. Sa dami ng naka-mingle ko dito na mga kalahi natin, masasabi ko na common occurence talaga yung mga nabanggit ko.

    Ngayon mas tahimik na buhay ko at masaya dahil kasama ko na din yung asawa ko from Pinas. Hindi ko naman iniignore mga Pinoy totally, nakikipag-usap pa din naman ako, naghi-hello, pero piling pili lang talaga yung kinu-close ko and I don't attend random social Pinoy gatherings. I only go to events with my Pinoy friends or mga kakilala din lang nila.

    I still believe na madami pa din matitinong Pinoy. It just happens na majority ng nami-meet ko madaming issues. For some reason, mas nagiging ka vibes ko yung mga nagsimula as international students dito, o kaya yung mga nag-migrate as skilled.

    July 9 2013: Applied for ANMAC
    Nov 19 2013: ANMAC assessment completed
    Nov. 22 2013: Applied for state nomination (visa 190)
