thanks, Khen took the kid fro the father and asked me to phone an ambulance....I did not know the number to phone so Khen phoned a friend to call the ambulance while we took the toddler to the nearest hospital
As a UK motorcyclist and as someone who thinks that H&S has gone over the top in the UK I do get the argument about freedom and personal choice, but I draw the line when it comes to putting children on motorcycles, they don’t have a choice do they !
yes totally, the laws here are not that dissimilar to road laws in the uk but simply not enforced here in mindanao and if caught 4 up on a motorcycle by land transportation officers the penalty is usually little more than a fine
You're a good Samaritan indeed. That was very kind of two of you to conquer your fear and shock and to help transferring them to the emergency room, instead of waiting for the imbalance, but not if the person's was severely injured, moving them might cause more damage. You are Gods send to that family. Talk about being at the right place at the right time... A motorcycle might be and probably the only means of transporting a poor Filipino family who live in remote area of the province can afford, so no one to blame in this case but the loose stray dogs all over the roads. God bless you, and your loved ones. Good luck and best regards po/Ned 👍🎉👍
thank you, at first it looked worse than it was so really glad on that point. there was a growing number of people by the side of the road but nothing much happening, Khen had to phone a friend to call the ambulance as we did not know who to call while at the same time just run the kid to the nearest hospital. the mother and father arrived soon afterwards by ambulance and were treated. Khen tells me as the police turned up that if they find the owner of that dog they will press that person to pay the medical expenses for the injured family
Hi Alan & Khen, poor dog😢 but glad family are ok.🙏🏼❤️ Love the new shirt, suits you! But, was waiting to see Khen’s new top…you should have show off Khen too❤ Oh gosh, am so pleased you endorsed Nigel and Reform UK 🇬🇧 Hope you got your postal vote in! I did txt you a Happy Birthday last month, not sure you got it. Take care Bro, love to you all😁
Totally agree with you Alan about more freedom in the Philippines 🇵🇭, nearly got taken out twice today on the way to panglao bohol by dogs crossing the road, just gotta use a bit of common sense
yes been caught out a number of times as well, in England all I used to see was dog walkers walking their dogs mostly on leads but here I believe most of these dogs do actually belong to people but they are allowed to roam free on the roads which I am sure have contributed to many accidents
Well done. At the moment you were needed you didnt shirk the responsibility & stepped up. Many people either will not or cannot cope with such events. Please remember you & family will have increased stress due to witnesing this. Please use this group to vent & get anything off your chest. Most of us here are good people & want to support.
cheers Stephen, after living here for a while you appreciate how much you can get away with compared to the uk but what I did not say in the video which I should have although someone else pointed it out is that having children on the bike is not their choice. but yeah, if you get to spend time in a country like this then you certainly start to compare lifestyles, have a good one
@@alan4x we make choices for our children almost everyday of their lives and given the circumstances of these people’s lives, I personally don’t see a problem, they could just as easily trip over and break their neck, btw, I have done exactly the same back in the 70’s , me, wife 6 mths pregnant and 2 year old in between. Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do
Your feisty today Alan😂 i think i mentioned this before my stepsisters son visited the Philippines and exersised his freedom to chose not to wear a helmet and now he is dead and his family are devistated, UK laws are not suppress us but to protect us, i mean who takes a child on a motor bike, and your right ill be voting reform on thursday👍👍
@foreignermakingmoney-phili1458 I don't blame her lmao 😂 but she's with a British guy and two things we love most is talking about the weather and politics 😂 🤣
Crazy but they had the choice which is the point of the video. You can dress up in all the gear, but if they had 4 on one bike then buying a car was probably above their means. Possibly buying all the kit for 4 people may have been above their means?
Its one thing if those adults want to to make that choice to not wear helmets or anything but it is beyond stupid to take your kids on on a bike like that they have no choice. This is why some laws are needed to protect those who have no say. I agree England has gone too far and is in a shit state but the Philippines has beeen around long enough to have a few more basic laws and protection for children. The Philippines is another country where those at the top take all the money and the people have nothing they are an expendible commodity to their government they dont care thats why there is no road safety at least in England any parent who did that with a child or children would be jailed and lose their kids and rightfully so.
this is true but there is a big world out there and many things that go on would horrify the most hardy of us but for this issue, no I do not agree with children on these bikes and until the laws change it will continue
some are wild but the majority of them are owned by people. unlike in the uk you would walk your dog mainly on a lead, here most of these dogs roam free
Let’s keep politics out Alan hehe it gets ugly and divisive. Manila is a whole different world to Mindinao i tell ya. Laws are far more strict up there.
This is what comes from having a police force not enforcing any law and allowing child endangerment forcing them to travel one of 4 up on a scooter and then nearly killing them. Dave - Philippines
I'd rather be free like there ,,(you get fined for dropping fag ) Environment """"""""""but their trying to start a war with Russia and the weapons are far worse
Its not just here, its common across the world to see this, the first time I saw it was in Taiwan. I suppose if your only form of transport is a scooter and everyone else does it. The biggest issue is the apparent lack of mandatory crash helmet laws.
There was an LTO check point this morning in our town. I was in hurry for work and forgot to bring my drivers license... It so happened that there was a funeral procession so I merged with the funeral motorcade pretending to be an associate of the deceased by turning on my car's hazard light... I was not pulled over by the LTO officers and managed to pass by the check point...😅
I worked in an enviroment where I couldn`t even stand between a brick wall and a completely dead vehicle unless I had full hi-vis PPE on! We did a course at the local agricultural collenge where all of the students were wearing dark boiler suits and it really made you look harder if you were manouvering a vehicle around them!
This is the Philippines unfortunately and it will never change. One whole family on a motorbike, no helmets and no lights on a night. All my nieces ride motorbikes without (ages 10 to 15) helmets and even on main highways. No matter how many accidents they see or me trying to convince them to wear helmets, they choose not too. No enforcement of the law in the provinces.
since I have been here I have noticed one thing that amazes me....whether its motorcycles or filipinos riding on the roof of trucks, these people are fearless
Enjoyed your rant mate! I've been out delivering leaflets for Reform the last couple of days, done a few thousand!! I'm hoping farage gets a lot of seats! I have a good feeling about it, i think we're going to do far better than the polls say! 🤞I had loads of people say to me that they hadn't voted for years but are coming out to vote Reform on Thursday.
cheers Matty, you know once Nigel takes on a task he won't let go and by him leading reform it is the hope so many have wanted to break the stalemate we have had in place for so long
Please don't take this the wrong way.... You simply can not compare the UK to the Philippines. Road deaths in the Philippines is around 8 times that of the UK. A significant number are drink drive related. Which means, as safely as you drive YOUR vehicle, there is a huge chance YOU will die through no fault of your own by being wiped out by a selfish idiot that thinks it's a good idea to drink and drive. Helmets are for a good reason, I travel SE Asia a lot and would NEVER ever consider getting on a motor bike pillion or rider without wearing one. When I ride in the UK, it's always with full leathers, gloves and Helmet. Remember this, life in the Philippines is cheap, that is why the government don't insist on correct safety measures. In the Philippines there are costs involved in just being able to work/get a job, to obtain necessary paperwork. This does not apply to the UK as it's free. Entering a major retail store you will have to hand in your previously purchased shopping for security and that the authourities and store don't trust you not to steal. There are a lot of armed guards in the Philippines.... Do I want to live in a country where there are an abundance of guns, NO If it weren't for the abundance, availability and willingness of Philippine women in the country, do you think there would be so many expat men there, ABSOLUTELY NOT. Don't get me wrong, I love all of SE Asia, it's a wonderful place, but you can not compare apples with pears. The amount of brutal killings undertaken by the PM Rodrigo Duterte to tackle drug abuse is outrageous. This is a country better than the UK? I think not.
Human life seems to be of less value in some countries. The UK has is a managed society sometimes it`s an advantage as would be in this case you just would not carry 4 on a bike without any head protection. Dogs are controlled, rarely loose and owners held accountable.
many people in this country do not know where their next meal is coming from let alone afford full leathers and helmets for the whole family so you have to understand silly risks is the least of their problems
You always talk about how great the lack of regulation is in relation to the Philippines, but this is what heavy regulation in the west stops frkm happening.
covid lockdowns and mandating experimental so called vaccines under the guise of "its for your safety" I don't need bureaucrats telling me how to live my life thank you
The poor dog did'nt cause the Accident. The bike driver should of be watching the road, driveing at a reasonable speed, and all should fo being wearing helmets !
You and khen have good hearts to help out alan and take the kid to hospital big respect ro both of you
thanks Chucky 😀
Hi Alan and Khen .very Good of you Both to Help those people. BIG Respect to you both 👏

No helmets,no protection,4 people on a motorbike! Crazy.
Crazy but they had the choice which is the point of the video. You can dress up in all the gear, but if they had 4 on one bike then buying a car was probably above their means.
Possibly buying all the kit for 4 people may have been above their means?
many of these people are barely surviving on a daily basis so buying full leathers and helmets is not exactly top of their priorities

haha, not just yet😁
Good rant mate and spot on👍

Are those dogs people's pets a
Or are they wild alan
some are wild but the majority of them are owned by people. unlike in the uk you would walk your dog mainly on a lead, here most of these dogs roam free
I moving out to cebu next year. There is no way im going to ride a motorcycle there . I am even cautios about drivivng a car
tbh I quite like the public transport, its much less stress letting someone else do the driving
Let’s keep politics out Alan hehe it gets ugly and divisive. Manila is a whole different world to Mindinao i tell ya. Laws are far more strict up there.
yes I know but every once in a while I like a good rant🤣
