Lovely looking girl you have Danny-Boy.
My god daughter is Filipino and I know and have known many many Filipinos in Australia (who moved there, not brought up there), and they are fantastic people. You couldn't ask for a nicer group of people to hang out with. Fuck - i think about the German tendency to just close the wagons and not welcome you at all* - the Filipinos were the total opposite. Didn't matter who you were, you were part of the family.
Having said that, I have 2 friends who got mugged within an hour of leaving the airport in Manila! One of them just about had his head torn off - someone riding a motorcycle reached into the taxi window, grabbed the chain around his neck and kept going.
(* for the Germans on the board who I may have just insulted - I'll qualify this by saying I'm speaking of the people in Schwaben where I live now. Mistrustful close minded unwelcoming and unfriendly bunch they are here. And cheap - my God are they cheap.)
