    We're happy to see you again, Cody! This is a beautiful side of you that we haven't seen before (I think). Thank you for your big heart! Yes, our OFW's have been declared as national heroes for their huge contribution to the GDP (4-6%) of the Philippines. By law, customs inspectors cannot physically open a balikbayan box (to prevent pilfering). However, the boxes can be scanned or sniffed. That's how revered our OFW's are for the sacrifices they have made. Just thought you'd know. Merry Christmas!!!😀💝💕🎄❄️🎊

    Balikbayan = balik (return) + bayan (literally means town although we often use it to romantically refer to the entire country) > in context, translates into either 1: sending our love to our loved ones back home by sending them stuff(balikbayan box), or 2: someone who has come back after being abroad, like those you interviewed. So the next time you're back wherever your heart considers home, as the saying goes, feel free to call yourself a "balikbayan" : )

    balikbayan boxes are in part gratitude and sharing. the items like moisturizers, shampoo . . are mere gifts . . i can say 50% of the recieptients are simply humbled that a relative have been making it abroad. not felt/showned are the impact of sending money to family or for other relatives to eke out and help themselves elevate thru school or small scale business and manage themselves what rare opportunity can be grab.
