Just curious how many places/countries you have visited? How do you compare living from country to country? Do you compare living according to the people’s income? Do you know what the population of the Philippines is? The size? Before you criticise any place, try to know more about its history and do not compare It with another place if there is no basis for comparison. Compare like items not apples with bananas! Or you are just showing your ignorance!

The Philippines is undoubtedly the worst place I've ever visited. Tourists are systematically overcharged for everything here. The amenities are a joke; prepare for non-functioning showers, restrooms without basic supplies, and constant power outages. The internet? It was faster in the 90s than it is here today. Traffic is a nightmare with frequent accidents, and the infrastructure is laughable; overhead cables are a tangled mess, and healthcare is disastrously inadequate. Despite claims of low costs, most other Southeast Asian and even European countries are cheaper. The supposed friendliness of the locals? It's just a facade to exploit tourists. I would prefer to live in any other country on the planet over the Philippines.
