My Feeling as a Filipino Essay

I am very proud to be a Filipino From the centuries that passed, a push-down store of populations view admired the Filipino spate, for being industrious, brave, talented, resourceful, these are only a few of the traits that a cumulus of other people and nations admired the Filipinos for. But although we have been complimented in many fields, n iodin of us or only a handful of us are well known for it. We as a people never stop and think what can I do for this country. There have been notable personalities that have d iodin this however a lot of us have always taken it for granted. One other notable Filipino trait is ingenuity we have had a lot of inventors that have blossomed in the Philippines, one such inventor that is well known around the world is Agapito Flores, the inventor of the fluorescent light.This invention, should it have been recognized by the government activity would have been one of the best ways that we could have paid our national debt and would have increas ed the status of the Philippines as a nation, if it was manufactured here in the Philippines, but the government took it for granted. Another field that we really should have exceeded in is agriculture. A lot of the Asian countries have learned their agricultural knowledge from the Philippines, yet we keep import these goods from them, one such country is Thailand they are very proud to say that they learned their agricultural knowledge from the Philippines, one notable goods is the Thai Rice, that specific reproduce of rice was made in the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) in Los Baos, Laguna, yet we are the one importing that specific rice crop from that country to ours.So my question is why is it that our government seems to be a reactive kind of government and not a proactive one? Why is it that the Filipino, as a people, seems to practice, what I call the I syndrome? Why is it that we put ourselves on top of everything else rather than a part of a nation? Why is it that other nations and or people recognize what we have and we dont? Why is it that we turn a blind eye to the problems of our society? Why is it that we are so caught up with what I want and what I need that we wander to see whats really happening to us as a nation? I AMPROUD TO BE A FILIPINO and I still believe that we can make it as a nation, but Im afraid that if we dont change our outlook of ourselves as a people, we will succeed as an individual but fail miserably as a nation.
