Pres duterte didn't make such laws.. the laws are already there and ken is right that not much of implementation for decades.. that's the only thing he did, impose the laws.. that's politics anyways so expect different opinions.. another thing is the pan-philippine highway.. they said it like all islands are connected through tunnels.. that's not true.. there are roros which are ferries that can carry vehicles along the path in the video.. and in demographics, where they separated cebuano from bisaya.. like bisaya is the main trunk of a tree and then cebuano is one of its branch.. so i disagree with you that they researched well.. i dont know know who is the editor of the Philippine episode but thats the best quality i ever seen since the started the channel.. and for the pronunciation, its normal they cant pronounce everything right so im fine with it.. but the rest of the facts? That is not a good research.. btw, im only listing everything down to justify myself that if they did research, i think they failed majority of this episode but i still like it.. i always love channels promoting our country like the way they did.. i watched their videos since 3yrs ago.. maybe i set my expectations so high since im a fan..

    1:22 In the province if you don't have a Tupperware or any rigid plastic food container you just wrap it in a fresh clean banana leaves and tie it. The food smells really good specially if you put the specially the rice hot or newly cooked. Banana leaves are like aluminum foil in the province.

    The Philippine flag can be flipped also and gives a different meaning. The blue should be on the top (if placed horizontally) or at the left (if placed vertically) as a sign of peace. If reverse (blue at bottom and or at right) means that the country is at war
