COMMENTS OF THE DAY

Actually I also look up at Filipinos - primarily Jose Rizal, but there are others too.

"Filipinos are lazy. Filipinos are stupid. Filipinos are immoral, Filipinos have no national sentiment. etc., etc., etc." Repeat two or three times a day for several years. "However, put in there that I look up to Rizal. Wait, I also look up to other Filipinos. Let me count with my fingers or maybe include toes. There, that would suffice.". Now, repeat the daily mantra: 'Filipinos are lazy Filipinos are stupid. Filipinos are corrupt. Filipinos are unworthy. Etc., etc., etc."

Now this use of Rizal et al as Trojan Horse, that is a clever trick.
