FYI Philippines is not a 3rd world country it's a developing country
I did some research about it! But thank you for your feedback po ❤️🙏🏾
Philippines is a 3rd world country .tanggapin mo katutuhanan .
Developing or 3rd world country is the same and you cant be better than the expert like world bank,imf etc...
@@waterlily2839_chua nah 3rd world country is a cold war term. so it should be developing country bc we are in the modern world
@@mYsTiCaLiEsyou cant be count about the first term using about the cold war and they change it from cold war to the term they use it to categorized each countries from 1st world and 3rd world
you are a filipino inside out because your parents are both filipinos. you are just lucky you were born and raise in the US because you have so much opportunities in life as an american citizen.
This guy doesn't really know what is to be a Filipino. If only he can DENY that he is not a Filipino he would do that bwahahaha
Another ignorant. Aminin mo man o Hindi inggit Ka Lang
Because you are pure Filipino they don't see you foreigner. And when you are in Chicago they don't consider you American they will still see you Filipino.
Well he looks local but the inside is really foreign
ironically as a filipino, i still view him as a foreigner.
He's mayabang if you'd ask me. Deport black Africans who spread lies!
@@yella_c2 He stayed here for two years already and a foreigner cannot stayed that long they must exit the country and comeback again, and for sure he is holding a Filipino passport that is why he is not foreigner in his homeland even a mixed race Filipino they can still get a Filipino Passport. one example are the ocampo family or even Jordan Clarkson itself.
@@takitroy1159 i mean his mentality. and he himself admitted he still doesnt consider himself as a local --- and it shows so..
This is a good interview for FilAm. I guess Filipino parents living outside the Philillines should not forget to teach their children with the Filipino values and speaking the language (Tagalog) so when their kids travel to the Philippines they know what to expect when they get their. I do not admire Filipino who neglects his own culture.
Of course, in every country there is bright and dark side that everyone (expats or local) would experience. I have been to several countries like Saudi Arabia, U.A.E., Qatar, Allgeria, Angola, Ghana, Nigeria, Switzerland, Negherland, France, Thailand, and now 8 years in the USA. And i can concur that even on those developed countries there were bad and good things that i had experience. I will never betray my own country and its culture. I am always proud to be a Filipino and will never exchange Philipines with any of those country that i had been to. We have things that other countries don't have and that is why no matter where i am, i always think of going back to my country. There is no better place like home as people say.
Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!
Kulas is a Canadian man that love the Philippines and consider himself as Filipino and even granted a Filipino citzen by Congress..he can spoke different dialect of the Philippines and consider himself as local..
He can speak or he speaks, present perfect ang tense niya☺
Language po not dialect. Bisaya is a language not a dialect.
Filipinos are great at spokening english
Spokening dolyares
@@naimuds8269 hahahaah...😂
you can definitely tell that this guy is very very smart, the way he talk you can tell that he knows what he was saying and i love that
Truee! Really smart guy! ❤️😍
We should not criticize the philippines country and we should be thankful and love coz it is a beautiful place.
Have you been to a beach lately??
Bring a shovel to move the garbage so you can sit in the polluted mud..And pay for the honor..
These two guys should learn history and current events.
the World Bank classifies the Philippines as a developing economy, we are classified as a newly industrialized country
During the cold war the term 1st 2nd and 3rd world countries was started.
1st world were countries alligned with the us and its allies.
2nd world were countries alligned with russia and its allies.
3rd world are neutral countries.
So if we use those terms in the manner it was made for finland, sweden, ireland, austria and switzerland are considered 3rd world countries and since Philippines is an ally of the us(western countries) techincally Philippines would be 1st world. That is if we use the term based on its original purpose.
Now the correct term if we base it on GDP, philippines would be considered a newly industrialized country. Not just developing.
Which lines Philippines with
Malysia, indonesia, thailand, taiwan, singapore, turkey, mexico, russia, china and south africa.
Think i made this up? Do your research on the list of newly industrialized countries.. also check the history of cold war and when the term 1st, 2nd and 3rd world country was started and why. 👍🤙
I was surprised he used the word 3rd world country...
Thanks for having me on brother 🙏 It was a pleasure, looking forward to releasing our interview on my channel 🎉
Thank you so much brother!!! Excited for our interview on your channel ❤️😍😊
Stop insisting that you are Filipino/American!You don’t even have American blood in you,in America the full blooded American call you guys ASIAN ….And since your old enough maybe it’s time for you to go back to America if you love America
I do think the courting process in the Philippines is very beautiful.
Been watching your content, I gotta say it’s very interesting and entertaining. Keep it up.
Thank you so much Carl ❤️
in time, Evan. in time. even Kulas, a full blooded Canadian became a "filipino" after some time (on the inside)
Oh ok savvy expat ill subscribe even he did not grow here ill support him and hes a filipino
Please ❤️❤️❤️
He is not. He did not even consider his self pinoy. Weird savvy.😅
You just proved my statement
Je je je.your parents did not ever tell you how we live here?
Stop calling Philippines as Third World country as derogatory term. Educate yourself first before you say things. Google what it means.
Hey mate go to baguio benguet
Yeah sure 😍❤️
Correction. Philippines is not third world country. We're a developing country. Look around you.
If the philippines is poor,the philippines won't exchange dollar money,so the philippines is rich because even if the money from different places is so big,why would it be exchange in th philippines?
Thats more than america!!!!
I love 🇵🇭
Thank you so much Lily ❤️😍
Hey I know him the savvy expat 👍
such a well spoken guy 💜
so eloquent
Trueee
❤️
❤️❤️
the term 3rd world country is not good lol. a lot of ppl from the west are actually moving here because they find it much better. This "first word" , "third world" term only a thing back then when internet was not yet avaialble to everyone.
What 3rd world are you talking, you are saying it without hesitation?.😂😂😂. You got to update you consciousness men.
galit na galit. 3rd world naman talaga ehh... sabi sa google pero outdated na sabi sa ibang source but he doesn't meant it negatively. Balat sibuyas masyado.
@@hirayamanawari3583 hahaha, Google pala source kaya gulo gulo utak mo.
@@MA-hd6lu hahahah ambitious ka masyado, you can't accept the facts and criticisms about your country. You'rso illusional. Filipino pride as its finest. Balat sibuyasmasyaado. iyak mo na lang yan boy. Bobo pala si google, so mali mali pala karamihan ng articles, news etc dun. ohhh thanks sa advice. sa tiktok na lang ako magsesearch or sa wikipedia. ok hahahahah.
🇵🇭 coo guest 🎤🫵🏾
Truee ❤️😍
Tinalo pa sya ni Dwayne na taga Australia magaling mag tagalog
Ha
did you say third world country?
Are we a third world country though?
sir, I just want to ask why from Kensington why didn't your government do anything in the Kensington area why is it allowed to use illegal drugs And isn't your government doing anything for that the government just abandoned them like zombies people there I'm sorry I'm just asking this 😥😞
I’m not from Kensington! Thank you 🙏🏿
They are working on having 80% poor..
Just like in Philippines... Give them time..
Police here are not struggling. Few years ago, their salary was doubled. There are just corrupt policemen.
Philippines is not a third world country. We are a "developing country" but I understand, maybe it's your lack of English vocabulary that's why you called our country as third world.
Yup, police here have many benefits too
The culture in the USA is more modern and advanced than the Philippines'
What is an advanced culture anyways? Japan is culture is very conservative, I would argue that theyre way advanced than the us
Yeah they are too advanced to the point that they cant even differentiate men and women having 20+ more gender..their new generation having high suicidal rate, high obesity rate so yeah they so modern and advance😂😂😂
3rd world country? Im sorry Philippines is not.
Then REFUSE to accept foreign aid..
Just send it back..
what's the connection? Japan also received foreign aid whenever there's a disaster coming.
@@SlimjimMK11😂
@@Draconiandevil-e9k
Let me think now...
THAT possibly would have been after WW2 or when a devastating event occurred..
NOT on monthly basis to drag stupid arses out of trouble or so the politicians could steal it under pretext of CALAMITY..
When did they last get foreign aid??
chicago is scary 😅😅😅😅
Right? 😅😅😅😅😂😂😂😂 super scary 😧
@@calvincastiel5663maybe he is talking scary is chicago street in quezon city not the u.s.😅😅😅
@@waterlily2839_chuathere is Chicago street in QC, really? 😅😅😅
@@calvincastiel5663 yes sir calvin chicago street in pinagkaisahan,cubao quezon city
@@waterlily2839_chuaI didn’t know about it hahah I’m going to Chicago later but in QC 😊 Sana all 😅😅😅
Hilas.kahit anong sabihin mo.ilong mo ay pango.period.
Tumpak!
Tama
The Philippines is not a third world country. It is a first world country which is allied to the USA. Economincally speaking it is a fast growing developing country. So please before stating a statement, know what you are talking about. Just learn.
Ive been to Philippines and Philippines is not a 3rd world country. Not thr richest asian country but certainly not a 3rd world
Thank you Christian! People are misunderstanding the point of the interview. I did a research about it. I don’t mean Philippines is bad country by saying 3rd country. That’s what I found on my research. You can even google, but yeah I totally understand and thank you so much for teaching me. ❤️😍🙏🏿
@@calvincastiel5663 no wories my friend! Those things are really unavoidable sometimes. Just dont mind it to much. Hopefully will visit soon again.
@@calvincastiel5663 I agree with you man, you don't meant that negatively. If you're going to ask some Filipinos about the Africa, they might answer you some sort of positive or negative things like Africa is a country, they didn't know that much about Africa, poor country, lots of hunger, lots of wildlife, a beautiful place, etc. because that's how the media (mostly western media) portrays Africa as a whole. But not all people are like that, their are some that are educated. I'm a Filipino but I know a lot about African continent like history, culture, countries, positive and negative sides, and etc. Just don't mind those people, they are carried away by their emotions.
While this topic may be sensitive to some, it's important to acknowledge that the Philippines is categorized as a developing nation. Referring to the country as a "third-world country" can carry negative connotations, given its historical context. Nowadays, there are more respectful alternatives, such as "developing nation" or similar terms, that accurately describe its status.
Drawing a parallel, using the term "Negro" for Black individuals has negative implications, and it's preferable to address them as Black people. This same principle applies here-the choice of terminology should be mindful and respectful, recognizing the country's developmental stage without using terms that may carry unintended negative associations.
It’s the same thing. Developing may sound better but the same in essence. Focus on how to get out of that category. Vote for the right honest people as leaders. Competent governance.
It WAS A DEVELOPING COUNTRY but the last 2 elections have sent the Phills backwards..
If you doubt this, just google IQ of Philippines..
You will see it WAS 84..
But as a result of the severe Dicturte lockdowns, the UN and WHO stated because of this it has dropped to 80 or 82 depending what Authority you read..
For development, more floods, undredged rivers, illegal timber and mining increased, education system no longer works and corruption and bribes and protection of criminal elements is now open..
Of the so called tri;;ions PLEDGED to the Marcos debacle only a few million gave come in AND then the government had the temerity to ask WHERE IS YOUR PLEDGE MONEY??
(Here is a flash... IT AIN'T COMING... Too much corruption and thieving).
HIV , dengue and cholera and many other diseases are rampant and rising..
BUT you do have a populist government that so far is still affordable.. I think..
My fellow Filipinos are very sensitive with regards to the topic about third world country... You must be thankful becoz its not 4th.. 5th etc... Let the foreigner rate when they visit here. Be humble and be thankful to our Almighty God for giving us such a great and beautiful country Philippines.. thats it. Talk less. ❤🇵🇭💯🙏
Jordan Clarkson proud being pilipino😍😍😍
Its a fault of his parents for not giving him attention to teach Filipino language.. he looks like ignorant but good thing he wanted to learn Filipino in general.. thata a good start... Welcome to the Philippines 🇵🇭
no disrespect to yoir parents, Evan, but that's the problem sometimes with Filipino parents. they don't integrate/impart their language and/or culture to their children and i don't understand why. i see a lot of other youtubers in the US that have foreign/migrant parents like Koreans, Chinese, Russians, Italians and many other races...they rmbrace who they are are and are very much in tune with their language and culture, even if they've moved to a different country. now i don't know Evan's parents' circumstances but that's just a general observation l.
I like the fact that he describe traffic as “energetic “
I'm wondering if native Filipinos are resentful of the fact that all the foreigners are able to live and visit the Phillippines so easily and they cannot do the same? I'm here in Mexico and it's similar in that Mexicans can't generally easily visit other countries in the world not only because of the expense, but also the Mexican government makes it difficult.
Woah, well said. As a filipina American. I related to him SCARILY. Things I haven’t said out loud he said it well.
Wow thank you 😊
The full blooded American call you guys…Ooohh…we have Asian neighbours….😄😄So where is the title of Filipino/American in there?
The Philippines is not a third world country. I am a Filipino and have traveled to some countries, to be honest there is not much difference. Everything you can get in North America, you can get here. You go to Makati, BGC everything is there. You want to enjoy and relax, you go visit the islands.
Philippines is NIC status country meaning Newly Industrialized Country. Second world country.
3rd world country is a term used by Americans and Europeans idiots bloggers
Philippines is not poor
Great to see savvy expat here. Was it planned or by chance? Great interview 👍
My children were all born outside the Phil but they are very proud to be Filipinos. They are even prouder that our Motherland is now a more developed country. They love it so much bc people are friendly and hospitable.
Philippines is now a newly industrialized country. We are no t a developing country anymore
You rely on OFWs and BPOs.and a little tourism.
HOW does that make you a INDUSTRIALIZED country??.
@@SlimjimMK11 Ask the World Bank why
@@ratapornpongsawarn9256
They only want to look good at giving money to make debt and gratitude to 3rd world..
Like China with belt and road...
@@SlimjimMK11not 'industrialized' but 'newly industrialized'.. Do your research.
@@Draconiandevil-e9k
What part is NEWLY industrialized??.
DO your research and tell me where all this magic is happening...
Not some lying senator or secretary spouting off about where the missing money went..
I am waiting for Macapagal to truthfully explain where she put the money this week.. LOL
This men did not do his proper research
Especially that 'savvy expat' naka-subscribe ako dati diyan dahil 'smart' daw pero napansin ko hindi marunong mag research tungkol sa Pinas kaya nag unsub na ko.
Philippines is not categorized as a third world country, its a developing country. Third world country is used only during 2nd world war
Only if Marcos and Fiona do not steal too much in secret funds..
Mt son living in Europe for like 25 years and still living in Europe yet he can speak at understand loads of tagalog words...
Evan, it depends on a lady, if you met somebody simple and kind, good enough. someday you'll find one that is really a good person and respect you and take you with fully love.
I used to watch the savvy expat videos now he was here. That's so awesome 👌
Thank you so much ❤️😍
Well robbers are everywhere, USA or other Western countries crimes are everywhere, just dont show off alot
Just simply say US is not same as before
Filipinos can talk English.
ASEAN Including the Philippines will be the next EU in the future when it comes to growing economy. watch out for that!
Trueee! I totally agree with you ❤️😍
Thank you for your content very informative. Take care and God bless.
Thank you so much Lynn! I appreciate for your comment ❤️😍
He is spot on with cost of living for Manila. Cebu city 1500 a month and of course much less in the province. Great interview! New sub here.
Thank you so much 😍❤️
Im watching from samal island.tnx ur blog po
I will be there by next month hehe 😍❤️
PHILIPPINES IS NOT A 3RD WORLD COUNTRY
It is a world of it's own..
More a state of mind..
yeah bro the culture shock is wild, developing country btw, least I'm not triggered by these woke comments
Insist talaga nya na taga Chicago daw sya pero brown skin naman sya at flat nose….Pinoys ka dodong Savy yong passport mo lang ang America which is papel lang nasusunog
You're so bad Po..pulaera ka 🤦🤦
Watch you're words ate Hindi lng Pinoy Ang may flat nose so ibig sabihin Pinoy Sila???... Dito sa hongkong maraming flat nose dito ano Sila Pinoy???katawa ka ate used yours brain Bago mag comment...

Great guy ❤️😍
Goodafternoon..philippines is a rich country..
Foreigner yan haha. Di nga marunong magtagalog
Watch out for your words, Bro "third world country"?! Please be careful, because I'm sure you will disappoint the Filipinos and other nationalities who put in effort just to help grow the Philippines. I know you want a direct statement, but do proper research. Here is the meaning of it: (source: WIKIPEDIA) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_World
America first world country 😂nice joke
Lol diminishing actually..I cant protect this country im not a leader here.
Great video
Thanks!😍😋
For those who are confused if Philippines is a third world country or not, hit google. First word is the answer.
Don’t be offended, it’s just the truth mga pare.
Walang hard feelings.😂 Mahirap talaga ang Pilipinas mga beh kaya wag nyo nang isugarcoat.😂 Developing, yes but still third world.
I did a research actually before! But no hard feelings. Thank you so much ❤
"developing" is the right term....there are poorer countries than the philippines (underdeveloped) but philippines is under the list of developing countries...it is not rich but neither a poor country.
1st, 2nd, 3rd world countries are group of countries belong to a bloc during cold-war era when communism is at its peak
3rd world countries are neither pro-western (1st world) nor pro-communists (2nd world)
First world countries:
US, WEST EUROPE, JAPAN, SOUTH KOREA, TAIWAN and allies
Second world countries: SOVIET UNION, CHINA, CUBA, NORTH KOREA, VIETNAM and allies
Third world countries: Non-Aligned/Neutral Countries
These terminology is outdated and considered an insult especially dahil di na dapat siya ginagamit since the end of Cold War.
First World Countries:
Japan (Develop)
South Africa (Developing)
South Sahara (Least Develop)
Second World Countries:
Russia (Developing)
China (Developing)
North Korea (Least Develop)
Third world countries:
Philippines (Developing)
Singapore (Develop)
Myanmar (Least Develop)
Dont get surprise pare.. Dami hipokrito sa pinas
@@2-block386more like DELUSIONAL.
Third world country ba Tayo??😂
Yun tinatawag na First world country- mga HIGHLY INDUSTRIALIZED- Second world-industrialized...sa atin at sa Asean maliban s Singapore eh Third world- developing pa rin or under industrialized..
Nope
Philippines is not a 3rd World country, but Angola where Calvin is from, is.
Seems he’s considering himself as more American than Filipino !! Dude wake up! Your parents are both Filipino! U just born and grew up in America! But you can’t call your self an American !!
Maarte eh 😂😂
A lot of cities in the US is worst than the philippines , tell me about it …southern cities in the US .
You didn’t lie Jessie ❤️😍
So true like Philadelphia gosh trash is everywhere and the people walking like a Zombie 🧟♀️

Boom specially right now. Not only the homeless but they added migrants.
especially in san francisco, they normalized robbering inside and outside even smashing car windows to rob
Wow! The First one is the very lovely Evan from the Savvy Expat YT channel.
Im a filipino and i think its fine to call us a third world country (rather than a developing country which is the same but sugarcoated) despite our economic outlook; keeps us modest and looking forward into improving ourselves :)
Thank you Mike! People are just taking against me and I didn’t mean to diminish the PH. Thank you for your understanding ❤️😍
@@calvincastiel5663most of us filipinos are snowflakes. Sorry for my countrymen. They need to see the brighter side of things
Filipinos who were born and raised in other countries will NEVER TRULY FEEL their being a Filipino. There is SOOO MUCH that they are missing and have not experienced growing up in terms of culture and traditions. Like this guy above all he knows about the Philippines is THEORY and WORD of MOUTH. Experience wise he is not even 1% of that LOL
You guys are blocking the sidewalk... geez..
