Welcome everyone!…This is Taka.
Actually,I am not used to speaking in English yet
while doing this introduction, but I will do my best.
Well, let’s move on with the theme as usual.
“Why do the Filipino children send their salary
to their parents in the Philippines?”
I am not sure whether Japanese know it or not,many filipino people send part of their salary to their parents.
As you know, Japanese people are opposite to the Filipino people, right?
In contrast to our culture, our parents give us money when we get married, during pregnancy,giving birth or in building a house,etc.
What do they think about it?
The results of my interview are here.
Take your time and be engrossed!
T: Why do Filipino children send their salary to their parents?
G: I I want to help my parents because they helped me when I was a child.I want to take care care of them when they are old.
T: ahh.
B: The reason why I’m sending money, I want to help…at that point when they are getting older, i want to take care of them,for that i can repay their sacrifices and sufferings for me when i was a child.
T: How many percent are you going to pay to your parents?
