The Philippines and the Filpino culture is so unique because we spent roughly
400 years in the Convent (or under Spain),
40 years in Hollywood (or under the USA),
4 years in a Concentration Camp (or under Japan)
20 years of oligarchic rule (1946-1966, pre-Marcos),
20 years of “strong state” (1966-1986, the Marcos times) and
20 years of fumbling at avoiding the wrong path while not quite finding the right way.
