Angolan Views on Filipinos Explained

An anonymous Angolan student summarizes their perceptions of Filipinos and experience living in the Philippines for 5 years while studying at Northern Luzon Adventist College. Some Angolans see Filipinos as beautiful based on limited media exposure but think the country is underdeveloped and people don't eat rice. The student notes some behavioral differences like public tooth brushing and burping at the table in the Philippines. Communication in English, especially outside urban areas, and dealing with racism in the form of questions about their appearance and culture were the most difficult adjustments.

because of the small insight they
have about the country they can only
relate to what the “TV” shows.

PERCEIVE CITIZENS OF YOUR
COUNTRY?

very poo because they never try to
learn about it and thy think we don’t
eat rice there.
3. DESCRIBE THE DIFFERENCES IN
MANNER OF SPEAKING?

speak a bit louder than the people in my
country, but we both respect the elderly
when we speak to them and things like
that not much of difference.
4. WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT BEHAVIORS
OF FILIPINOS THAT ARE NOT ACCEPTABLE

are at the table, brushing your teeth
on the kitchen sink, being racist (not

FILIPINOS AND CITIZENS OF YOUR
COUNTRY IN TERMS OF BEHAVIOR AND
THINKING?

to sing, we don't have much of
similarities on the way we think or
perceive things.
6. WHAT WAS YOUR MOST DIFFICULT
ADJUSTMENT STAYING IN THE
PHILIPPINES?
 The most difficult part is we always have to
answer the same nonsensical questions
about my race, my hair, country and culture
and deal with the racism in a form of humor
and the adjustment with the language as
well.
7. HAVE YOU EVER EXPERIENCED DIFFICULTY
IN TRANSACTING OR COMMUNICATING IN
ENGLISH WITH FILIPINOS? IF YES, TELL
YOUR GROUP ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE.
 Yes all the time it's hard to communicate
in English even more when u go to less
urban areas, because they speak less
English and more on Tagalog
