Filipinos are very respectful

From the moment they are born into this world, they are already taught how to
be respectful by using these simple catchphrases po and opo, words that end
sentences when addressing elders. They have a culture of pagmamano, which is
where they raise the backs of the hands of their elders to their foreheads as a sign of
respect.

Filipinos help one another

More popularly known as bayanihan, In our community help one another

without expecting anything in return so that undertaking their tasks and
responsibilities become much easier. Sometimes this is called “community spirit.”

Filipinos value traditions and culture

For Filipinos, traditions in their home and in their family are important. They
usually set aside a specific day for a certain celebration like festivals, birthday
parties, reunions, etc. And of course, every gathering is dedicated to keeping up with
each other over sumptuous food.

Filipinos have the longest Christmas celebrations ever

Even as early as August, you can hear Christmas songs and jingles being
played in the malls or in the restaurants in the Philippines. The mood becomes
festive, with many people shopping and in good spirits. Christmas celebrations last
until around the first or second week of January.

Filipinos love to sing

This is the reason why karaoke has become so prevalent. As part of their
recreation, Filipinos spend some quality time with their families or friends singing or
belting out new and old songs.
