You plan to move to the Philippines? Wollen Sie auf den Philippinen leben?

There are REALLY TONS of websites telling us how, why, maybe why not and when you'll be able to move to the Philippines. I only love to tell and explain some things "between the lines". Enjoy reading, be informed, have fun and be entertained too!

Ja, es gibt tonnenweise Webseiten, die Ihnen sagen wie, warum, vielleicht warum nicht und wann Sie am besten auf die Philippinen auswandern könnten. Ich möchte Ihnen in Zukunft "zwischen den Zeilen" einige zusätzlichen Dinge berichten und erzählen. Viel Spass beim Lesen und Gute Unterhaltung!

Typical Filipino (XXIII) - Typisch Philippinisch (XXIII): Old people - Alte Menschen

Respect for one's elders is traditional in the Philippines. ... The idea that caring for older people is the responsibility of their children is rooted as firmly in Filipino society as it is elsewhere in Southeast Asia. For that reason, older people usually live with their families.

Filipinos place a strong cultural value on respect for age and for the elderly. Young people are expected to show respect to the elderly as well as older members of the family. Older adults should be addressed in polite language, preferably with appropriate titles of respect.


Alte Menschen werden respektiert und geschätzt. Jüngere Familienmitglieder suchen in vielen Angelegenheiten den Rat der Älteren. Ich habe dies in meinen vielen Jahren meines Aufenthalts auf den Philippinen mit meiner Familie so erlebt.

Old people are respected and valued. Younger family members seek parenting advice on many matters. I have experienced this in my many of my stay in the Philippines with my family.
