5:07for his lecture this afternoon entitled
5:09a heritage of connect
5:11with professor de leon
5:14thank you every moment
5:21and i'm very glad that muscat is very
5:23active
5:24in really sharing the knowledge about
5:26our feeling our culture
5:31isn't a very logical concept that's why
5:33it has to be learned
5:35has to be taught it to be transmitted
5:48but first let's look at culture
5:52fundamentally shape the way we live we
5:54are both biological
5:55and cultural beings
6:02pandemic where a disease becomes a
6:04pandemic and affects a large part of the
6:05world we cope with it in both biological
6:07and cultural ways
6:10the impact of the disease can be greater
6:12or lesser depending on our values and
6:13beliefs cosmology social studies and
6:15economic
6:16systems then
6:20uh harrison leader from all over the
6:22world
6:23well uh wanted to contain the copy
6:26and the ways to worldstar health
6:28corporation next year's
6:29share information experiences keep
6:31supply chains open and facilitate
6:33joint research and development of
6:34vaccines and antiviral
6:36medicines and also a commitment to take
6:39collective action and coordinate
6:40policies you know of course
6:45that's why different nations took
6:47different parts to achieve a common goal
6:49because while all were committed to a
6:51united front to fight against the virus
6:54countries took different parts to
6:55achieve this goal ampidak might pick
6:59on the students of public measures
7:01because to control the spread recovery
7:03three asean countries that impose the
7:06highest levels of extremism
7:08are vietnam laos and the philippines
7:14is
7:18this is really important estringency
7:20alone no matter how highly level is not
7:22enough
7:24doctors said measures to contain the
7:25disease such as detection isolation and
7:27contact testing had to be that had to be
7:29done
7:30at the very outset of the pandemic so
7:33the government should provide and
7:34analyze
7:35figures systematically cooperate with
7:36news agencies
7:38disseminate information widely and
7:39engage the cooperation of the people
7:42indigenous
7:45of course the countries that implemented
7:48this holistic approach had greater
7:49successes
7:50in beating profit 19 than those which
7:53did not
7:54at the same time it's important to
7:56impose strict measures
7:58to control the pandemic without
7:59resorting to intimidation and strong
8:01armed
8:01tactics especially in the philippines in
8:04our country where a traditional culture
8:06of community self-help still prevails
8:08compassion encouraged and not coercion
8:10will work better
8:12now independence
8:15um filipinos appreciate the value of
8:18discipline but it has to come from a
8:19shared understanding of its
8:21importance for the common good so it's
8:23really compassion not question
8:26filipinas for example like to be treated
8:28as part of a family
8:30where the discipline often enforced by
8:31father figure emanates from love and
8:33concern for the good
8:34of the children not from the discipline
8:37pain
8:37alone important
8:43well really culture is a mindset
8:47the one that determines the political
8:48and economic agendas and behavior of
8:50nations
8:51if a culture or if a regime prioritizes
8:55power and wealth
8:56the consequence will be a divided
8:57society with much inequality of power
8:59and world alumni
9:02on the other hand if a culture values
9:04the common good
9:05or social investment more there will be
9:07a more equitable distribution of wealth
9:09and power and will not be monopolized by
9:11a few most people are not aware that in
9:14any society there are at least
9:16four cultures in any society there's no
9:18exception
9:19all throughout history there has been
9:21the cultures
9:22of one power where people are attached
9:25to power and privilege control and
9:27domination culture of wealth
9:29where people are attached to wealth and
9:30material goods possessions pleasure and
9:33comfort law
9:48it's easy to be born as a human being
9:49but very difficult to be
9:51humane this is the culture devoted to
9:53the search for wisdom
9:54spirituality creativity stronger
9:57character
9:58love and sharing the culture of devotion
10:00to higher costs
10:10some reflections persons addicted to the
10:12culture of power see themselves as
10:14outsiders feel alienated from the people
10:16and are purely motivated by
10:17self-interest
10:19driven by fear and security and hate and
10:21ego no
10:22they view everybody else's hostile and
10:23potential enemies except for the
10:25immediate family and inner circle of
10:27friends
10:27they are reminded of the godfather you
10:30know
10:34they behave like bullies attempting to
10:35subjugate control and manipulate others
10:37especially the weak
10:39being outsiders they cannot feel
10:41compassion for others the only language
10:42they know is
10:45persons foreign to the culture of class
10:46similarly feel as outsiders
10:49disconnected as a society they don't
10:51have empathy for others and are mostly
10:52self-serving
10:54also driven by inner insecurity and fear
10:56of a hostile social and natural
10:57environment
10:59they become ruthlessly competitive
11:00amassing whether the expense of others
11:02they consider everything
11:04as commodities that can be controlled
11:05and traded to satisfy their insatiable
11:07grid for
11:08money persons who belong to the course
11:11of recovery good have a deep feeling of
11:13being
11:13insiders parking in community
11:17parthenon and are separate no
11:20you feel as part of a big family and
11:22they have compassion and capacity to
11:24sacrifice for the greater projects often
11:26they are devoted community workers who
11:27are not driven by self-interest
11:30instead of force there is the language
11:32of persuasion
11:38they lead by example volunteer services
11:40for free
11:55cultural power crucially practiced by
11:58politicians
11:58the police and military culture approach
12:01businessmen
12:02tycoons course every commonwealth
12:07civic society spiritual leaders
12:09humanitarians and educators
12:12people who work in the field of culture
12:14usually belong to this
12:28because it requires sacrifice we learned
12:31that the question of recovery requires a
12:32lot of voluntary effort and sacrifice
12:34and breach related or no monetary reward
12:37for example if you work for a pacific
12:39process
12:40you are part of a voluntary body which
12:42aims to represent the needs of a local
12:43community like helping to provide
12:44shelter for the homeless
12:46or joining a refrigeration project
12:51so there are these three cultures of
12:54power
12:55wealth and the common good these are
12:57constants in any society
12:59in any period of history they're present
13:02in every society always coexisted
13:04throughout history although a society
13:06may lean more
13:07on one or the other china is now much
13:10obsessed with power
13:13you know trump's america seems more
13:15inclined towards wealth
13:17than power bhutan with his gross
13:19happiness index of social development is
13:21apparently for the common
13:23goodness
13:26there's a fourth culture this is the
13:29creative construct of a society
13:31convention
13:33they are able to invent a way of looking
13:35at life
13:37well they could emphasize power
13:40or wealth or the common good depending
13:42on culture and
13:43in vending time a society constructs a
13:46unifying region of life
13:50or worldview and their idea of reality
13:55from this comes a culture's core values
13:58which in turn promote the cultivation of
14:00cultural skills that realize this
14:02values
14:05ethnicity according to unesco these are
14:07the contents of ethnicities
14:10organizations including languages
14:13performing arts
14:14social practices richer than creative
14:16events
14:18we have so many fiestas knowledge and
14:20practices concerning nature and the
14:22universe and traditional
14:24craftsmanship um
14:40celebrations but also scientists like
14:42the philippines have many
14:44of this so much of this hell it's
14:47important to note
14:48that the core principles of our
14:49ethnicity you know inventing that and
14:51our cultural concept
14:53which are kappa based or biannual based
14:55are built upon the course of the common
14:57good
14:58rather than the culture of power or the
15:00culture of wealth
15:02now filipino on the whole we are not
15:05for the cultural power of the cultures
15:07will accept a few normal
15:09family dynasties john
15:18anyway we are more for the culture of
15:21the common good that's why relationships
15:23are more important for most filipinos
15:24than economic
15:42uh in pampanga is among the taxes
15:47in terms related to kappa this is an
15:49awareness
15:50of the rootedness of each one of us in
15:52the one divine essence within
15:54he is a long time god all of humanity is
15:56one that's why
15:58kappa implies the golden rule of all the
16:00great religions
16:02treat your neighbor as you treat
16:03yourself because your neighbor is
16:04yourself
16:06your name has been a
16:19imagine the whole universe as a big
16:22infinite sun
16:23nasa get nanyan is the creative living
16:26principle you may call it the force
16:28god uh the creative living presence
16:32each one of us is a reign of this
16:34creative living presence
16:36or creative living peacefully
16:42all of us are race of the divine that's
16:45a very very filipino concept
17:14that's why the filipino core idea is
17:17treat the other person as you treat
17:18yourself because the other person is
17:20also
17:20yourself very very filipino idea
17:24so each one of us is a unique expression
17:26of this divine
17:27essence within the creative living
17:29present in the universe
17:31is every person is a soul
17:35an individual ray of this infinite
17:37source
17:38so this is the meaning of shared
17:41identity
17:43and it is the core of filipino
17:44psychology given us at the highest level
17:48it implies a unique moral obligation to
17:50treat one another's equal fellow human
17:52beings
17:52so in principle i hindi gamitan
17:57excludes any action that may be
17:59detrimental or harmful to other human
18:00beings
18:01definitely inconsistent with
18:03exploitative human transactions
18:28most of us use it without understanding
18:30actually this is the capacity to take
18:32the burden of the other person as your
18:34own
18:35and according to the dfa according to
18:37our diplomas
18:39this is the outstanding virtue of many
18:40filipino workers including
18:42ofws so
18:45the ultimate basis of human connectivity
18:47bhaktai connecting
18:49because of the belief in kabul that each
18:51one of us is a unique expression of a
18:53divine being or god the word is a satin
18:56i seen again
18:57in america thus making us only one if
19:00you look at
19:01land culture i mean of a higher force
19:04all over the country
19:07and we go through life exploring this
19:09connectedness exploring realizing and
19:11strengthening this
19:12oneness so who are we how do we identify
19:16ourselves as a people
19:18we are people who are highly skilled in
19:20creating situations activities of things
19:22that bring people together
19:24you know nothing since we love to
19:26connect to people
19:27then we enjoy and excel in making things
19:29in activities that connect people
19:32then therefore we are masters of human
19:36connectivity
20:16so our culture is a culture of health
20:18and healing actually
20:21that's the easiest way to connect are
20:23you nothing but beginning that long
20:24price is done because we have to give
20:26prices to everybody getting invented i
20:28know special prices
20:30we are so eager for social networking
20:32that's why we are the social media
20:33capital of the world yes
20:35you know for the texting facebook and
20:37selfie capital rewards
20:41sharing of winnings bonus is the best
20:44gift
20:45from a person offer
21:03uh may not be the most important aspect
21:06of culture because i think the most
21:07basic
21:08element of quality language no more than
21:10art but
21:15the clearest mirror of culture is art
21:18are the arts paintings nothing
21:2290 of our paintings with the exception
21:25of some paintings
21:36you will see a very distant horizon in
21:38in philippine paintings
21:39compared to european american peninsula
21:41very decent horizon filipino paintings
21:50in european painting you'll see distant
21:52horizons like these
22:15living in rapidly changing times our
22:18pension for human connectivity has
22:19remained
22:20intact filipinos are very creative in
22:23things that bring people together like
22:24our fish
22:25devotion the filipino fiesta will never
22:28die i see
22:29that the biggest single event in many
22:30provinces that brings together all kinds
22:32of people
22:36yes
22:44and look at how good we are in art no
22:47uh the artistic gifts of philippines are
22:49world class and
22:50are great social magnets that's art we
22:53bring people together
22:54our living traditions dance groups local
22:56environmental purpose
22:58we're among the best if not the best
23:00coral foreign groups in the world
23:02our theater group and central houses the
23:04deer architecture and martial arts know
23:06angelina
23:13activities that really bring people
23:14together like beauty pageants and big
23:17international events
23:32for many philippines being together
23:34particularly during feasts and
23:35celebrations
23:36is a much soft after ritual that
23:37symbolizes the our deep sense of
23:39humanity's
23:40oneness in the midst of the social
23:42disruptions brought about dividend by
23:44the pandemic
23:45filipinos will grasp anything that will
23:47fulfill this disciple
23:49togetherness
23:52a filipino to observe social or what
23:55really is physical distancing
23:56this may cause quarantines or knock down
23:59orders to be violated
24:02meaning it is to be concerned for the
24:06common good or each other's well-being
24:08so in this slide physical distancing
24:11becomes an act of kindness and
24:12consideration for others
24:16it's false through for webinars blended
24:18learning and other forms of online
24:20communication which are the closest we
24:22can get to one another in this time of
24:23hobbies
24:31the foreign arts of when it makes
24:32filipinos a very expressive people
24:35there's a survey done in 2012 expressive
24:39for the more we open up the more we
24:41convey our feelings thoughts and ideas
24:43the idiots for us
24:44pressure other people to connect us or
24:47for us to connect to other people
24:50maximalistic the term horror is wrong we
24:53are not afraid of open spaces
24:56we are rather maximalistic and when
24:58young maximal is filling up
24:59every available displacement forms
25:02nothing our experience is deeply rooted
25:05in emotional sensitivity
25:12expressions
25:41for theater for performance
25:44and we make sure that we retain the
25:45ability maintaining our children from
25:47the earliest age to become performers
26:08our culture is a virtual theater
26:10laboratory
26:12number one we are number one in using
26:15karaoke
26:16for singing
26:37not expressiveness leads to health
26:40but being expressive especially to the
26:43performing arts
26:44is an effective way of maintaining a
26:46healthy heart expressiveness releases
26:48harmful
26:49emotions that's why i think it's what is
26:51one reason why women all over the world
26:54live longer than men because expressive
26:57that's why there are more windows than
26:59windowers all over the world no
27:01anything else in sufficient research in
27:042012
27:05this was published the philippines is
27:06the world's most emotional country
27:09uh second ranked us element salvador
27:12it's a study later
27:14hindi emotional was singapore
27:18out of
27:32you have something to express
27:35expression of being emotional is being
27:38very expressive
27:39uh that's why important is often a means
27:43of communication
27:44and expression very very
27:47indispensable element expression and
27:49communication are indispensable elements
27:51of philippine culture
27:53because experiencing the great diversity
27:55of human and natural freedom through
27:56television
27:57cinema radio internet and print media
28:00extends our senses affirms our being
28:03and connects us to the world
28:15in fact the more tools for experiencing
28:17the world the better
28:19filipinos for filipinos who value
28:22interconnectedness above
28:23all these tools of perception are
28:25non-negotiable
28:26demand that is why we are number one in
28:29social media in the whole world
28:32what do this means after this that means
28:36that you know some means for connecting
28:38to the world our facility for language
28:42facility for language and passion for
28:45travel and mobility and healing that
28:46engine
28:47to really connect no and i can say that
28:51our fetish for english cannot be fully
28:53explained by colonial mentality
28:55filipinos value english as their best
28:57thing to the world
28:58right now sing a international language
29:02and there is another study published in
29:042013
29:06countries where people feel the most
29:09loved
29:10i am
29:24in fact you can see that we are the most
29:26romantic in the world and
29:28the population of the embryo
29:32now let's look at this
29:36because every kind of connectivity uses
29:39a technique
29:40ah angling that is a multiplicity this
29:43is the most effective technique that
29:44we use to bring people together
29:48like i said again
29:51functions and uses so that they will
29:53attract or bring together people of
29:55different tastes and preferences
29:57the fiesta has been mentioned but other
30:00examples are bound hallo hallo
30:02senegal medley
30:05and many more here in
30:32elements of comedy drama music or
30:34fantasy
30:48in one and multiplicity theme is
30:52um we put everything together
30:55in one place or in one object a sorry
30:59store extension
31:27but of course the champion of
31:29multiplicity is the
31:31it brings together this aristotle
31:33according to the study of dr
31:34delbert alegre getting a researcher on
31:37philippine culture
31:38the filipino mole dao brings together
31:40this restore
31:42park and plaza in gigantic proportions
32:02now so what is our culture our culture
32:05at its best for filipinos at their best
32:08are highly nurturing
32:10caring sharing people because we are we
32:13are people who love to connect
32:14with a strong maternal orientation and
32:16difficulty
32:17not knowing health
32:20health care givers not health care
32:23givers nothing no
32:24health frontline um definitely we are
32:28not loners
32:30because of our genius in interpersonal
32:32communication and nurturing caring
32:33attitude excellent the service
32:35professions are
32:36industry so
32:39we have an expanded sense of our sphere
32:42of being includes not only our
32:44individual self but also our immediate
32:46family reviewed friends and associates
32:50our life is one of sharing with others
32:52such things as making choices resources
32:54masculinity
33:07because we feel connected
33:19we have no recipe for a single person
33:22it's always something that at least
33:24six to ten people can share that means
33:25we really prepare for a group
33:29and a sharing of being makes possible a
33:31remarkable degree of openness
33:33expressiveness and sense of belonging
33:35that have been absurd to bring about
33:36very positive psychophysical results
33:39you will have lower rates of depression
33:40higher degree of mental health and a
33:42sense of well-being and
33:43longer life spans no so
33:46our core culture of human connectivity
33:48gives us an edge over other people's in
33:50matters of health and well-being
33:52lack of friends and social and lack of
33:55friends and close social ties
33:57are the hidden cause of heart disease a
33:59social class increase mortality rates
34:02decrease no so
34:05some freedom filipino one
34:08tree that makes us connective we are
34:10highly participatory
34:14rooted in the assumption that all of us
34:16are one
34:18we have a strong participatory tendency
34:20in philippine culture
34:24and if it's one of us is
34:40equal participation in creative process
34:42decision making and self-determination
34:43no one must have a monopoly of the
34:45decision-making process
34:57[Music]
35:01dignity monopoly dictatorship and the
35:03containment of choices
35:07the more choices the better contingent
35:10sinning our traditional perspective
35:15single point of view what we see is the
35:16omniscient or communal point of view as
35:18in the
35:19in this slice of life series by larry
35:20alkara this is the kind of perspective
35:23that you also see in judicial southeast
35:25asian art particularly in valencia's art
35:27maraming focal centers because this is
35:29the communal point of view
35:30in the point of view individual yeah
35:35balinese are you becoming this is the
35:37community
35:39even our living traditions is a focal
35:42center
35:43or even in hernando campus world so
35:46formula togetherness very important yet
35:49for healing because
35:50the more together you are the more
35:54you observe rituals as a way of life
35:58the more you have feast of devotion or
36:01group limited
36:01good or grouped images the more you pray
36:04together for the bible largest
36:06the more you promote concern for the
36:08common good
36:10the more creative you will be in others
36:11what i'm saying here is that
36:13uh our creative arts is rooted in our
36:16participatory
36:18culture because communal or shared
36:21creativity
36:23is really a feature of communal cultures
36:27so formula creativity is a basic source
36:29of the great diversity of philippine
36:31indigenous
36:32cultures why bucket
36:36uh strong sense of community is very
36:39important
36:40for creativity because communal cultures
36:42allow people to be more
36:43expressive closeness to others allows us
36:47to be more trusting
36:49open and thus more freely expressive
37:03you become more expressive asera's fault
37:05arts and crafts are richest most
37:07creative and diverse
37:08in communal cultures
37:15traditional arts and crafts the more you
37:18go to the indigenous
37:21arts and crafts and further away from
37:23this
37:25arts and crafts consumerists
37:29because of the urban areas people are no
37:30longer productive
37:32in the arts they become simply
37:34consumerists
37:35and in the provinces or in more rural
37:37areas
37:38you know you know that food stays the
37:40error
37:41speech is more melodic and things of
37:44everyday life more
37:45colorful
37:48especially in the mountain among the
37:50mountain peoples no
37:51no no no
37:55nobody uh
38:00now baskets we've been in ilocano
38:30foreign all over the country these are
38:34very very
38:35prolific among our cultural communities
38:39among our traditional cultures there are
38:42three traditional courses in our
38:44in our country
39:05human dignity to the filipino is the
39:07creative essence within
39:08it cannot be a human being without the
39:11creative essence but he needed a
39:12developing creative essence
39:14you are you are not really human you are
39:17not fully human
39:18i see young human dignity
39:23that's why there is nothing more than
39:24humanizing the human being than to feel
39:26he is
39:35the consequences for an organization
39:37will be a rapid turnover rate
39:38absenteeism safety violations high
39:40accident rate
39:41high rates of illness and doppler's
39:42activity sabine in some industrial
39:44psychologists
39:45born in the workplace and in other
39:48relationships
39:49which failed to recognize individuals
39:51more than a robot we see negative
39:53behaviors as a lack of cooperation and
39:55absenteeism
39:57is a filipino because feeling oriented
40:00you know uh if you look at the
40:02four psychological functions of
40:05volume thinking sensing
40:10intuiting feeling we belong to the
40:12feeling category
40:14we are very very sensitive no uh we are
40:17the feeling people
40:19so the sensitive filipino soul rebels
40:20against being treated as a mere machine
40:22of robot
40:23nothing could be more troubling or
40:25terrifying to achieve than the origins
40:27obey
40:28or just follow the law without a clear
40:30and valid basis and other is a form of
40:32coercion
40:33and you always be resistant in the
40:35household
40:37because it violates the basic tenets of
40:39our being a creative soulful and divine
40:41nature that always demands
40:42respect so coercion and violence as i
40:45said earlier a high-handed difference
40:47will never work in philippine culture
40:49philippines likely treated as family
40:52members as partners within the community
40:53of individuals working together
40:55for countries
40:59most of all will be treated in the way
41:01our mother came for us
41:04so the need for difficulty must be
41:07understood as directed towards this goal
41:08of working together for the common good
41:10and not as a form of punishment
41:12of course simply in any in any country
41:15in a society in any society of course
41:17there will always be a futile citrons
41:19who deserve harsher honest men or
41:22treatment
41:24but many officials like to impose their
41:26will on others because their addiction
41:27to power makes them so insecure
41:30they cannot dominate control and
41:31manipulate people their egos will suffer
41:33if they cannot show that they are the
41:34boss nor their master
41:36they'll treat others as enemies to be
41:38subjugated and humiliated or even in
41:40claim
41:43june 25 will start government officials
41:46say that many filipinas are disobedient
41:48and because of that
41:49we have the highest number of public
41:51cases in asean
41:53but look at the data the data show that
41:55they were wrong to blame the public
41:57because data from google showed that in
42:00fact people are doing their part and is
42:02staying at home at the end of the
42:03illusion lockdown on appleton
42:06google mobility data recorded 90 drum
42:09on people visiting retail outlets
42:12compared to free pandemic levels in
42:14contrast the moment in thousand baha'i
42:17in residential households movements saw
42:19an a43 percent
42:21uptick in the same period
42:25during that period filipino
43:03adoption upon the new study aside from
43:06face masks
43:0740 percent of philippines were required
43:09to own face shields
43:11go to the philippines only ranked third
43:13for face masks
43:14it had the highest ownership rate of
43:16facials out of all the other countries
43:18in this study
43:19the uk came in second but only 13 of the
43:22population owned the full face
43:24of green number one
43:29and back in july according to sws 76
43:33percent of philippines always wore
43:34face masks contrary to popular belief
43:37that the pandemic continues to
44:06at any given time and anywhere in the
44:09world there are three cultures
44:11that have always existed first culture
44:13of power
44:15wealth and the common joy it's important
44:17to know that the core principles of
44:19philippine ethnicity and the basis of
44:20harmony and cooperation are built upon
44:22the culturally common good rather than
44:23the cultural power
44:25and the culture of wealth filipinos love
44:28to connect to people and excel in doing
44:29things that many people making it
44:30difficult for them
44:31to observe physical distancing but in
44:34their life
44:37also concerned for the common good
44:38social distancing becomes a lack of
44:40kindness
44:41consideration for others for the
44:44believers who value interconnectedness
44:45above
44:46all the technology of communication
44:48social media and the arts are vital
44:49means of expression extension with
44:51senses
44:52windows in the world and a force for
44:53social transformation
44:56a compassion a compassionate approach to
44:58carving the spread of hobbit
45:00will work better in the filipino
45:02cultural setting filipinos like to be
45:04treated as friends
45:06as family members as partners within the
45:08community of individuals working
45:10together for the common group
45:11and that enemies will be subjugated
45:16indi
45:30foreign
45:45thank you for uh positing the
45:48before cultures framework purposes
45:52nice to be reminded of the core values
45:55which are inherently uh both
45:58popular and deep seated
46:12guys
46:17these all work to describe what we call
46:20a flipping
46:21psyche manifesting themselves in
46:24arts this is an expression spatially use
46:29our norms our customs
46:32our work ethics and even the
46:34organizations
46:36yes
46:39sir young importance of
46:42expressions and communications come to
46:45core
46:46and and thank you also for the new data
46:49and the very consistent
46:51insight about filipino hindi
47:08this is consistent with the previous uh
47:11speakers
47:12uh all of whom have been echoing the
47:14same things
47:22filipino
47:35we are waiting for questions but
47:39sir uh yeah i would like to ask um
47:42one or two questions initially
47:47what is the what is the future for
47:50the filipinos uh sir is it considering
47:55christmas and and at this point in time
48:01uh mayor is already announced
48:14[Music]
48:27[Music]
48:41within the family but uh from family
48:44to family member network of families it
48:46will
48:57in one place that will even strengthen
48:59their
49:00oneness
49:12meaningful celebration because they are
49:13we will find themselves
49:15uh they're isolated you know basically
49:18pharaoh
49:18they are together within the household
49:20not really buying their brother they can
49:22do some kind of ritual to even
49:24strengthen the family
49:25within the house
49:28and then families can do some kind of
49:31network networking with other families
49:32through social media or online
49:34with incredible importance
50:52foreign
50:55i think most of our audience or our
50:58listeners will be able to relate to that
51:01scenario again within the house you know
51:05the household you become more creative
51:08we have questions now sir uh
51:12from um mr nestor lim
51:16the filipinos are obedient in following
51:19government regulations during the
51:20pandemic
51:22what do you think is the reason why we
51:24are not able to control the
51:26outbreak
51:29more effectively
51:51airports they close their airports
51:53through anybody traveling from china
51:57or countries
52:03they did not let people who come from
52:06infected countries uh enter their
52:10country
52:11um new zealand
53:12filipino
54:18[Music]
54:22is
54:54we have another question sir this is
54:57from
54:58rada a senior high school student
55:02do you think the common good will last
55:05here in the philippines if not what are
55:08the factors
55:10the culture of common good here in the
55:12country
55:15well i think and then
55:25the way we express this course will
55:26become good but it will never disappear
55:29why because
55:33in english english but it will be
55:36celebrated
55:36rooted in our country
55:40mosque we will always speak ilocano
55:43visayan tipoli tagalog
55:51we will retain this culture because our
55:53culture comes from the language we speak
55:55look example english
55:59does not have collective verbs
57:24foreign serial killing comes from people
57:28who were not able to develop any kind of
57:30emotional bonding
57:31with others
57:37because of the congress will
57:51we will always be a people of bionichon
57:55the whom he long will be influenced is
57:59strong but on the whole i don't think it
58:02will disappear
58:05through education okay
58:08okay sir there's another question for
58:11jerby ferreira it's a comment and a
58:14question
58:16with regard to the recent opening of
58:18manila bay
58:19the white sand beach front do you
58:22connect the lack of physical distancing
58:25simply conceal it on sir the affinity
58:29that we have to
58:31that we have to that we have this
58:34community spectacle
58:36such as a new tourist attraction
58:45[Laughter]
58:48would you attribute what happened to the
58:50opening
58:52uh something indicative of um
58:56no the connectivity or the the
59:00expressions of our psyche uh
59:14[Music]
59:44we attracted
59:58it's only a very small
1:00:12in the military
1:00:40how do you maintain social distancing
1:00:43impossibly
1:00:45okay there was no choice
1:00:52so i hope
1:00:55yes sir now the question sir
1:00:58from raven cole mendoza
1:01:01what makes connectivity important in
1:01:04times like
1:01:07raven nicole mendoza what makes
1:01:10connectivity
1:01:11in times like these does it apply
1:01:14and is it effective to filipinos given
1:01:18the fact that
1:01:19social classes disparities
1:01:22are
1:01:36yes social class i see generally
1:01:41anywhere in the world anywhere in the
1:01:42world there's no exception
1:02:18is
1:02:28however uh by
1:02:32by using the concept activity
1:02:36not very effective you know
1:02:42and there are many many ways to prove
1:02:45that we all are
1:03:27that's why there has to be some ways for
1:03:29english and equal to be together
1:03:35educational assistant
1:03:42or social emerging cultural inversion
1:03:44well they will work where they will work
1:03:46in farms they will live like the poor
1:03:50parasite sense of identity sense of
1:03:53oneness with the poor people otherwise
1:03:54telecom isolated enough
1:03:56and creativity is very important
1:04:00young feeling of compassion for others
1:04:06and this is
1:04:22you can enter other people's minds
1:04:39they can begin to understand especially
1:04:41movies movie theater literature
1:04:44mosquito music if we get to appreciate
1:04:47the music of
1:04:47the katatubo magicking must close some
1:04:50personality
1:04:50that's why for me the most essential
