It's crazy how alot of guys from the west dont know about Manila philippines, Iran, Africa, and Mexico. Since they portrayed these countries poor in movies.
Try to watch vlog in the provinces of the philippines, like siargao, palawan, bohol or cebu, you can see clearly the beautiful sky there bcoz here its hard to see bcoz of the tall buildings
Blue sky means no rain. Malaysia and Indonesia are on equator. Rain clouds are the speciality and beauty there. Phillipines is a little away from equator, therefore less rain, more blue sky. Cloudy and blue skies are beautiful in their own rights.
My favorite Metro Manila ❤ Few more years we will have the subway, the near finish 4th lines train system, the train connection between north and south of Luzon Island and the expansion/additional stations of 2 lines
The OP is only driving on the fanciest parts of Metro Manila. Everywhere else in the city, everything is in shambles. Don't believe everything you see. Manila is a shithole
A lot of the core or downtown business district looks a lot like a larger version of a combination of Miami and Honolulu. Very clean and modern city, but it diversifies alot as you go into the suburbs and then it looks more like Viet Nam or India.
there’s something about Manila that almost has the same connection with Miami the trees, and weather. I’m not really enjoying the sunny weather, I’m more into rainy day/ foggy/ cloudy days. But this was excellent!
Cities* The video shows a drive through 3 different cities in the Metro Manila region: Makati, Mandaluyong and Taguig. Each one is a valid city on its own -- separate and distinct from Manila. Pls note that "Manila" and "Metro Manila" are not the same despite their similar names.
The Philippines will surely become a Powerful Country in the Future. It is developing too fast. The fact that half of its population are still young or below 20 years old (non working age) . The country's per capita will skyrocket Once it's younger generation will begin to work. Same as how the youth of China, South Korea & Japan Lift their economy in the 90's to 2k's.
The country would have already become more powerful a long time ago if not for its drain brain policies (OFW) and focus more on Metro Manila than the rest of the country.
Yes, but only if the government can create enough jobs especially in manufacturing since that is the fastest way to cut poverty based on the experience of more advanced economies. If the government along with the private sector fails to develop our industrial base Filipinos would still keep migrating overseas and this is the reason why we have a low Household Debt to GDP. Our countrymen were able to buy or built homes just from their savings working overseas without incurring mortgages whereas our more affluent neighbors have a huge mortgage to pay.
Something that seems to be unique about the Philippines compared to its neighbors is the number of American cars on the road. Probably one of the few places in Asia where Fords, Chevys, and Cadillacs seem to be common.
mhm! Fords are quite common especially th Ranger and the Everest. Chevy has a pretty bad reputation for most of their lineup while Cadillac is just reserved for the ultra rich lol
@@richardnuevo There's no denying that considering Toyota consistently has a 40% market share in the country annually. What I mean is Philippines is one of the few countries in Asia where American brands have a common presence on the road.
The Phillipines is the only country in Asia that used to be part of the U.S. (1898-1946) and during that time (almost 2 generations) there was a huge influene on the culture that persists to this day. That's why you see everything written in English.

I hope J Utah you would consider to create videos of other huge CBDs that's part of MM like Eastwood in QC, Ortigas Center in Pasig, MOA complex in Pasay and many more. Thanks so much for this J Utah. I was actually one of those who requested videos about the beautiful MM.
Thank you, Kabayan, for promoting correct location. Indeed, the video is not Manila. It is METRO Manila. Specifically, it is a drive through 3 different cities in Metro Manila: Makati, Mandaluyong and Taguig. To be fair though... the description is correct. I just hope the title was correct, too. Wish ...
After watching this video, I rethink how I see Manila. Some parts really do resemble the USA aka Miami, however some areas you drove through, reminds me of Latin America megalopolises and undeveloped areas of Indian megacities. Manila is very diverse looking.
@@Siopaoko The Metro is highly urbanized but let's be honest here, outside of our CBDs every city within NCR are highly congested, little to no proper sewage management, lack of good road networks, etc. etc.
It's because of palm trees that give it a tropical vibe. Honestly if you remove half of the people and clean up Metro Manila it will be better than Miami since Metro manila can be very green and lush and Miami has kind of a dry feel.
On thing I heard they have a bigger number of English speakers in the region, am seeing billboards and roadside adverts in English wow nice city as well😊
But.. sorry to tell you : NONE of this is Manila. It's Metro Manila. Specifically, Makati, Mandaluyong and Taguig. Each of these are cities by themselves separate and distinct from Manila.
I mean tourists won't know these cities, Jakarta is made up of cities to but people dont call them by their names and just call it Jakarta, same case for tokyo too@@mocabe01
Manila seems to be the perfect mix between Singapore and Miami. Gives me Dallas (Oak Lawn) vibes as well with the road design. US-style road design with Singapore-style architecture.
I'm from the Philippines, and these 2 cities are like 15 km away from me. And I hit like! I wish this is not the last. Visit Antipolo City via Sumulong Highway and see the overlooking view a la DTLA/Beverly Hills!
Some areas in Mandaluyong district in your video (37:03) look the typical Southeast Asian city: chaotic and maybe a bit impoverished, with a lot of people on the streets minding their own business plus lot of unsafe street cables dangling! Then you have the Makati and Bonifacio Global which looks impressive, like KL or maybe Singapore.
Okay, I'm gonna be pedantic here and be an "akshually". But South of the Pasig River @ 41:15 and onwards, is Barangay(think of this as a village but with its own government hall) Guadalupe, which is part of Makati City, but it is outside the CBD of the said City and it gives you an idea of how it actually goes in Metro Manila. A major city would have a CBD but their suburbs look like 30:00 - 40:00. For example Mandaluyong city's CBD is in Ortigas area, which is just about 2 miles away from the parts of the city that J Utah passed.

In exchange of that our cultural landmarks that represents our culture are being vanished by powerful land developers. Kuala Lumpur Jakarta Bangkok Ho chi Minh despite of their development their cultural landmarks are still maintained.
@@arturoliriorapadas5490 there are also cultural landmarks in metro manila that were preserved. I mean understand that there are aren't enough cultural landmarks in the "new cbd's" but you can also go to other parts in metro manila to see and explore filipino cultural heritage that are preserved.
@@arturoliriorapadas5490it is also not entirely true that indonesians, malay, and thai counterparts are full in it to display this asian ambiance or preserve their cultural landmarks into their cities. Most of their real estate developments are modeled to european/american design. Most of the capital cities in our asean region do actually resemble some of our western counterpart cities. Remember jakarta is not able to preserve its cultural heritage or any cultural landmarks prior to the spread of islam in this archipelago because a lot of muslims view this as idolatry. On the other hand, kuala lumpur does not really excude a strong malay cultural heritage and most of their cultual landmarks is not even pure malay and that is a result of a melting pot of different cultures that reside in the city. Bangkok might be the only city that do preserve majority of their buddhist cultural landmarks and that is because thailand was never colonized by a european superpower. Ho chi minh/saigon, their cultural landmarks are more of like related to socialist landmarks.
BKK has scattered buildings, meanwhile Manila modern buildings are clustered, called CBD's. So Manila looks nicer in some parts, but the poor side of Manila is worse than the poor side of BKK.
Nope only the Metro Manilan and Luzon people. The people from Visayas and Mindanao are forever jealous with their undeveloped and provincial way of life. Having said that they are the Filipinos who work as domestic helpers and construction workers abroad.
Just because a country is considered “3rd world” it doesn’t automatically mean that everyone is just living in despair, and not all 3rd world countries are on the same level of development… for example, Southeast Asian countries are more developed than African countries despite both regions being considered “3rd world”. The Philippines is rapidly developing and the middle class is growing fast.
3rd world just means not part of the G10 countries and not being communist. 2nd world are former communists. Very outdated terms from the Cold War. What are you, 50 years old!?

Ho chi minh/saigon, their cultural landmarks are more of like related to socialist landmarks.
I think decades of American rule has something to do with how they plan and build cities.
@@arturoliriorapadas5490those countries you mentioned were not destroyed heavily during the 2nd world war unlike the Philippines
Ayy!!!!
Manila Looks nicer than bangkok tho'..
Because BKK doesnt have a CBD. Their skycrapers are scattered
BKK has scattered buildings, meanwhile Manila modern buildings are clustered, called CBD's. So Manila looks nicer in some parts, but the poor side of Manila is worse than the poor side of BKK.
@Hahkkhh188 Why because of the Prostitutes?! HAHA
this is a fact, Bangkok is too touristy and crowded
@@DaveChuaait's just the same as worst as bangkok china and india lol
Patriotism mode activated Philippines🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Patriotism mixed with subtle discrimination against people from Visayas & Mindanao by some commenters here.
Nope only the Metro Manilan and Luzon people. The people from Visayas and Mindanao are forever jealous with their undeveloped and provincial way of life. Having said that they are the Filipinos who work as domestic helpers and construction workers abroad.

City looks so modern and wealthy in general. You wouldn’t even know it is in a 3rd world country.
Just because a country is considered “3rd world” it doesn’t automatically mean that everyone is just living in despair, and not all 3rd world countries are on the same level of development… for example, Southeast Asian countries are more developed than African countries despite both regions being considered “3rd world”. The Philippines is rapidly developing and the middle class is growing fast.
The Philippines is not a third world country. Stop being ignorant
3rd world just means not part of the G10 countries and not being communist. 2nd world are former communists. Very outdated terms from the Cold War. What are you, 50 years old!?
@@richardnuevoyes. It is a 3rd world country as you know too.
@@shahmi5727are you living in a cave, Indonesia, Vietnam and Philippines are NEWLY INDUSTRIALIZED COUNTRIES, now searcg that term and educate yourself ☺️
Don't underestimate Manila.
those messy electric wires, it is possible to put them all underground?
I think that will be hard to do bcoz its already developed alot
If our government can do it, im sure it will be costly
We are a poor country,we instead spend our money first on education, agriculture etc. than those spaghetti wires just to make look good.
Good to se thiers not much of motorcyles just like bangkok, jakarta, vietnam and malaysia.
should have visit filinvest city in alabang
Kung wala ang mga wire sa suburbs marahil ay maganda ito tingnan...
Wasn’t the Philippines been hit with an earthquake few days ago ?
There are only few recorded earthquakes in Luzon. Earthquake mostly in the island of Mindanao in the south
Remote area
In the south island of Mindanao where the third largest city is located called Davao.
can u drive in phnom penh

For me, BGC is also my favorite destination to chill and relax, aside from Metro Manila
Grabe mga taga Mandaluyong Pasig River side, for sure sila mga nag vandalism sa tulay sa BGC Makati area na yan.
bintang pa!
@@melb758 Talaga naman? Wala kang makikitang vandalism sa area na yan nung wala pang tulay na yan!
Tiga Makati nagvavandals at sila rin nagkakalat ng mga basura, nakakasira ng kaayusan at kalinisan. Mandaluyong mas maayos kesa Makati. HIndi ako tiga mandaluyong, tiga Makati ako.

looks better than seoul
I’ve been to Seoul. It is modern, but it has lots of box shaped buildings and repetitive looking buildings.
@@dayangmarikit6860 i live here in seoul and i can't agree more
@@user-38dn in your dream!!! Manila is just a 3rd world gabage land while Seoul is on another level world class city!!!!! How dare you compare manila to Seoul?? How brave???
@@jdhdhhhd31 have you ever lived here? well, i don't wanna have an argument, it's just what I think.. maybe I'm too used to what Seoul look like and I want sth exotic.
@@jdhdhhhd31Seoul is a depressive city, full of sad overworked people surviving each day, literally an urban nightmare 😢
Go to filinvest next time.
You should come to tondo
Yeah for sure jutah can enjoy tondo specially 2023 tondo ruclips.net/video/W-ATb8eAZEk/видео.htmlsi=W3ENk2Oo2HjC3XCQ
Tondo is now called the "BANGKOK" of Manila. it looks like Bangkok, the nightlife, shopping, and street foods.
Yawa! bakit pinagpalit ko tong bansa na to :(
Как можно разобраться в проводах
Count them
Thats what makes Asia different like Japan with hanging wires in the streets
