WHAT 3 TRAITS (BE IT POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE), CULTURES, OR VALUES DO YOU THINK
MAKES A FILIPINO, A FILIPINO?
• Pagmamano sa nakakatanda, bayanihan, tsaka paggamit ng “po” at “opo”.

AS WE ARE NOW, WOULD YOU CONSIDER BEING A FILIPINO A GOOD THING OR A BAD THING?
WHY?
• Ang pagturing sa Pilipino bilang mabuti o masama ay nakadepende sa perspektibo ng isang tao. Para sa
akin, mabuti ang Pagiging isang Pilipino kung ang isang tao ay marunong magpakatao. Gaya na nga ng
sabisa Panunumpa saPilipinas, ang Pilipino ay kinakailangang maka-Diyos,maka-tao, maka-kalikasan,
at makabansa.

lagingmayroong magaganda at panget napangyayari nahindi natin naiiwasan but being a Filipino, meron
tayong lakas ng loob na harapin ano man yungmga panget nayun at hindi mawalan ng pag-asa.

WHAT 3 TRAITS (BE IT POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE), CULTURES, OR VALUES DO YOU THINK
MAKES A FILIPINO, A FILIPINO?
• To my way of thinking, the three characteristics that a natural born FILIPINO possesses are
HOSPITABLE and RESPECTFUL especially in elders. However, the concept of CRAB MENTALITY
can be attributed to Filipino Culture.
AS WE ARE NOW, WOULD YOU CONSIDER BEING A FILIPINO A GOOD THING OR A BAD THING?
WHY?
• Definitely, I should say that being a Filipino is a good thing. As a history teacher, I am very proud that I
was born in the Philippines mainly because I knew that the Filipinos fought so much for the Philippines.
Therefore, Philippines is worth fighting for.

tayong kinagis ng ugali tulad ng paggamit ng po at opo at pag mamanodahil karamihan saibang lahi ay
hindi naman nakagisnan yongkultura kaya para sakin mabuti parin na ang pagiging isang Pilipino.

• Mabuti. Dahil tayo ay mga pilipino at kahit naman ang mga ibang lahi ay na-recognize 'yon. Kaya nga
marami tayong-- maraming mga foreigners na pumupunta dito because they feel at home.

• Respectful, kind, strong family ties for the positive traits of a filipino and then for the negative traits
naman I think the ‘bahala na syndrome’, the crab mentality and other one is strong family ties…?

AS WE ARE NOW, WOULD YOU CONSIDER BEING A FILIPINO A GOOD THING OR A BAD THING?
WHY?
• Respectful, kind, strong family ties for the positive traits of a filipino and then for the negative traits
naman I think the ‘bahala na syndrome’, the crab mentality and other one is strong family ties…?For
me, my answer is both. Because the people response on their situations sometimes based on their
experiences. So sometimes because of their experiences they become bad or sometimes because of good
experiences they become good person.

• It’s 8. Because of the culture that we have especially the negative traits of the filipino like the crab
mentality which is--- especially with your family. Instead na silayung tumutulong sayo to i-angat mo
ang sarili mo but most of the time sa culture ng filipino kung sino pa yung family side mo, sila pa ang
magda-down sayo instead na i-encourage ka nila to achieve your choice. So, I think it’s 8.

• Ang pagiging isang Pilipino dapat magalang ka, mabait, at may respeto samga magulang patisa mga
nakakatanda.

AS WE ARE NOW, WOULD YOU CONSIDER BEING A FILIPINO A GOOD THING OR A BAD THING?
WHY?
• Dahil sa naging impluwensya ng ibang lahi. Dati kasi kapag purong pilinopurong Pilipino ka talaga e.
Mahal natin ang bayan natin e ngayon ay naimpluwensya tayo ng banyaga kaya tayo ngayon nadadamay
sa ibangbanyaga. Ang mga Pilipino mabait e, masisipag. Noongaraw ‘yon, eh ibana ang panahon
ngayon e.

• 10. Proud bilang Pilipino. Nalulungkot lang ako po ako dahil po ang bansa natin ngayonimbes na
tangkilikin ang sariling atin, ang tinatangkilik nila ay mga imported. So nakakaapekto yunsa bansa natin
lalo na saekonomiya. At napansin ko, mas tinatangkilik nilayung mga Korean, Korean novela. Kahit na
mamahalin ang ticket, nasa ibang bansayung concert pinupuntahan pa nila. So parang natutukso na tayo
sa mga banyaga talaga.

• Number one matiyaga, kung walang tiyaga ay hindi ka magtatagumapy. Tapos pangalawa masunurin,
kung ano yung sinabi sakin ay talagang susundin ko nasa bahay man o nasa school. And lastly, Willing
to learn. Kumbaga gusto ko pang matuto. Kasi syempre hindi naman sa pag sinabing tumatanda ka na,
naiistock na ang karunungan. So kumbaga gusto mo pang matuto, gusto mo pang malaman para hindi ka
nahuhuli sa mga nangyayari.

AS WE ARE NOW, WOULD YOU CONSIDER BEING A FILIPINO A GOOD THING OR A BAD THING?
WHY?
• Mabuti in defense na ang mga Pilipino ay katulad ng mgabinabanggit ko kanina, matitiyaga,
magagalang. Wala ako na masabi na masama kasi--- siguro yun yung sasabihin ng iba kasi merong mga
gumagawa ng masama. Pero sa akin, bilang Pilipino, parang wala akong nakikitang dahilan para
sabihing masama ang mga Pilipino kasi ang dami nang achievements ng Pilipino in terms of inventions
ang nagigiging problema lang binebenta nila ang rights. Kaya hindi tayo ang nakikilala dahil binebenta
nila, ganon nga.

ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10, 1 BEING SAD AND 10 BEING THE HAPPIEST, HOW HAPPY ARE YOU
BEING A FILIPINO?
• 10. Kasi as of now, tingin ko masaya ako when it comes to pakikisalamuha sa tao, pagsunod sa
gobyerno, ginagawa ko naman wala naman akong nilalabag sa batas, sa pamilya ko okay kami. Masaya
ako, 10. Simple as that.

• Based on the responses that we have gathered, we conclude that Filipino value(s) is/are still
pinapahalagahan ng mga tao especially mga professionals tulad sa mga nainterview namin. They’re still
into the positive traits and values of Filipinos than those negative one. The trademark of being filipino
is Hospitable, happy and hardworking.

• We recommend that people must pay attention on the positive side to take it as inspiration to solve the
problems and not spread negativity. We must protect our own culture and preserve it as our treasure as
Filipino. We still need to search on ourselves the real meaning of being a Filipino, A REAL FILIPINO.

• Filipino values, according to our interviews, can be described as our own identity. We were known as
hospitable, joyful, kind and very hardworking people. It’s the trademark of being a Filipino. You can’t
consider yourself as Filipino if you’re not possessing these values.

CONCLUSION
