This is Cebu City, Philippines, building the longest and most beautiful bridge in Filipino history (called the Cebu-Cordova Bridge) and its future Central Business District akin to Shanghai, China.

[Anonymous No.28763131]

destined to fail, the "Philippines" is a cultureless low-IQ leftover island grabbag.
remember when people were talking about the "tiger economies" of SEA in the 2000s? see where that went lol, the only successfull place is still Singapore because their population is sufficiently Chinese to raise the average IQ.

This shithole has floundered because it had no money to build anything for over 3 decades because it was riddled in debt and because of multiple economic crises in Asia and austerity measures that also took decades.

And for the first time in a long time we have money. At least this shithole is moving towards developing for once.
Why are you so hateful

i went to cebu in 2016 for about a week, then panglao. I had a few friends that worked in digital marketing there.

Cool city, the ayala district is looking pretty good, rest of the city is a bit chaotic but there's plenty of historic stuff.

Overall decent but there's still a lot of place that are really poor ( not dangerous tho, i was literally the only white guy in the crowd and nobody cared )

one thing i can't get around is the armed guard in seven elevens

it's mostly just banter my fren, we don't hate you.
but to think that the Philippines will ever rise to the level of Japan, Korea, ROC or even China is delusional. those places went throught economic crises while maintaining a high quality of life. why? because high IQ, collectivist mindset leads to a high civilizational level. and the Philippines simply dont have that.
but tell me more about the project, im interested. do you live in Cebu, anon? do you think you'll find a job in the new CBD once its finished?

China, yeah, probably.
The rest, no.
Did you know that Flipland was the 2nd most developed country in the late 50s? It was about to explode as a economic center.
Unfortunately with communism and all fucked all of that up because America chose to let Flipland be ruled by a corrupt dictator instead so it doesn't go commie.

>do you live in Cebu, anon? do you think you'll find a job in the new CBD once its finished?
No, but it seems kinda beautiful lest time I went there.

idk bro, im from a middle eastern country and people always cope that if this or that hadn't happened, we would be just like europe today. but i just dont think its true.
South Korea was in the exact same situation: corrupt anti-communist dictatorship, and yet they succeeded.
It's best to just appreciate the nice things your home country already has now, instead of always waiting for the big economic boom that might never happen.

Correction, it was kinda corrupt, but not as widespread as Flipland at the time.
Flipland was literally beep in debt after the dictator was deposed, in contrast to Korea's.

This deep debt was never waived despite more than half of it never reaching the pubic benefit because America and Japan threatened Flipland with serious consequences when it asked the UN and the World Bank, etc that it be waived.

Only in the late 2000s and 2010s did Flipland turn it around.

Now, for the first time ever, we're building elevated expressways, long bridges, rebuilding the train system that went defunct in the 90s due to no money to maintain it, and subways are being built.

By the end of the year the country's power grid would be connected inter island, from north to south, FOR THE FIRST TIME.

Couple this with 20-30 typhoons, earthquakes, floods, volcanic eruptions that shave 6-7% of GDP growth ANNUALLY, which Korea doesn't have.

cebu is not bad but there are some disgusting ghettos. I was banging 8's and 9's every night and snorkeling during the day. Property there seems like its probably a scam for foreigners. You can only own condos I think.

Hopefully no bullshit happens that fucks up this country again
The only bullshit I see happening is that because Flips are so used to no development for 3 decades, now that they're seeing roads and briges and whatnot, they'll think that Duterte's the greatest president ever (already happening now since he has a 91% approval rate) and he'll take advantage of it

It was nice decades ago (up until the 60s or so) when it had small island feel. Now even the small islands are full of bikes, cars, trucks and pollution. Also overpopulated, 120mil people on land the size of Norway which has 5mil people.
Good place to make money if you are upper class and profiting from the development. If you are poor, you get to work in the blistering heat, humidity and pollution.

I prefer ugly girls with hot skinny bodies, personally. They have much better attitudes and they hate themselves so much they will behave and not turn cunty the moment you fail to reply to their text messages.

There are some very beautiful women in the Philippines but they have all been riding foreigner dick since about age 16, unless they are fresh off the boat from the province.

Trust me bros. Find a pan face monkey with the body of an instathot. Your life will be so much easier over there.

You know, I have a small home in a crime infested area in Manila. Anyways, it was full of criminals and druggies.
When Duterte won, many of them either got shot or went to jail, or went into hiding somewhere in bumfuck nowhere god knows what they're doing in there
They burned down the building where all the druggies do degenerate shit too, near my area.

So, yeah, that place is a lot safer now.

You understand that most white people dont have riches to flaunt. The wealthy is the enemy not the race. There is just more wealthy white people. If there were a majority Black/Chinese/Arab/Hispanic/etc they would do the exact same, if not worse. To get to get such wealth many throw away any sort of moral compass and compassion or were raised in such a wealthy society that it is the norms to not develop them.
Tourist who go there looking for sex is not the best people and even looked at as disgusting by many in mostly white nations. Not because of having sex with people there but because they are going there to do just that. Not many would have negative thoughts if someone were to fall in love, marry someone over there.

[Anonymous No.28769851]

>>28769513
That is 100% true.
As I've stated a while ago, take for example South Korea.
When they were poor, they were in the exact same situation as us Flips: many of them were poor and would prostitute themselves to rich nations who were predominantly white.

Many Koreans would be forced to work in the Middle East for example to be exploited and abused.

Now that they are rich, they're the ones exploiting and abusing, which is pretty sad.
That's just how wealth corrupts people.

[Anonymous No.28769859]

>>28769513
exactly. "the rich" is not the problem. that's a Marxist dialectic.
the problem is the lack of a governmental type that enforces state markets and wrangles Capital when necessary... like preventing NAFTA and 40 million mexicans being brought in as a fresh workforce. Capitalist Democracy is just neo-feudalism and the forced prevention of the establishment of nation states inside of its international economic zone. Capitalist Democracy forces borders, economic and human (labor), from forming and also establishes Visas for anything left for the sake of Capital. All industries will be exported or outsourced and all labor will be imported.
I pledge allegiance to the economic zone!
