[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2236373]That is something that drives me crazy hanging out in third-world countries. The countries will never come up because the people are being held back by their parents. In my country, parents raise their kids to go out and make their own way in the world. In countries like PI, parents raise their kids to grow up and take care of them. It is ridiculous.
....[/QUOTE]In the historical content of these countries it makes perfect sense. They need the kids so that enough will survive to adulthood and then take care of the parents. The problem occurs because the cultural changes happen a lot slower than the economic changes. As the Philippines attempts to become a modern economy, the cultural imperative is still to have lots of kids when the economic imperative is to have only 2 or 3 at the most. The result is a population explosion that the area cannot sustain so 10 million have to leave home to support the ones left behind.

I have spent most of the last dozen or so years working in USAID funded programs. I always get into an argument with the do gooders there by saying that the last thing that they should do is anything related to health care or too many will survive to adulthood and the local resources and economy cannot take care of all of them leading to social unrest and instability. I can point to one place near my name stake city that this is exactly what has happened. The area went from food sufficient to massive food shortages just about entirely due to the improved health care offered that allowed the popluyation to expand beyond the capability of the place to handle. Now instead of slight food exporting there are twice weekly 100 to 150 truck convoys from the WFP (World Food Program) going there delivering food. That place did not have the equivalent of OFW's to relieve the pressure. Without all the OFW's leaving here and remitting money home this place would be a disaster.

Millions of poor kids and single mothers
make for easy fund raising and an ongoing workload.

Isn't this a bit off topic guys?

However, in 35 years of aid work, much of it funded by USAID and much of it in this and other SE Asian countries, I've yet to see a particularly effective public health program with sustainable results. Even the government's well-intended efforts to provide free HPV vaccines and birth control / family planning information and contraception was stymied by the Catholic Church which felt that HPV vaccinations would lead to "promiscuity" and of course contraception would be government-sanctioned sin.

The irony of course is that more well educated, upper middle class and rich families have practiced effective family planning for years, don't give much of a damn what the church says, and keep family sizes small. So the poor and uneducated increase their sheer numbers year on year, thus attenuating scarce food and financial resources, and the better educated have only the number of children they can afford to educate.

GE.

[QUOTE=WickedRoger;2236536]Great TV show PM. Have seen all the episodes but then was halted when the participants were in their 50's. Some of the poor people did do OK and were very proud but you correctly point out the rich kids (some who had in built bias by the age of 7) knew what they would (even the schools I think I remember)..[/QUOTE]I watched it again. When asked what she'd be when she grew up, one said she'd work in Woolworths. I'd imagine she and the others worked out ok, as you suggest. They had no NGOs poncing off them and moralising to them. The crimes NGOs have committed against the poor are legion and to hear them drone on and on about what put champagne on their tables is off-putting. If you want to lift people out of poverty, follow the Chinese line. Execute NGO workers and other corrupt riff raff. Follow the advice of Ho Chi Minh and make two blades of grass grow where one grew previously. Above all, ignore the NGO parasites.

They are like that guy in the Tennesse Williams play who tells his poor mate to buy a cassette recorder, without being savvy enough to know he cannot afford such luxuries.

The only skill most of these women have is to open their legs and to put dicks into their mouths. They quite rightly regard listening to Sherman tanks tell them how to do things they cannot do as extra, unpaid work they would sooner do without as they have had to listen to it all before.

I am now giving a woman going through a rough divorce advice on how to shaft her husband and get custody of their child. The pay off for me is to put Pedrito into her hairy ATM. She can listen or not listen, follow my plan or not. All I want is to put sperm into her pussy. If I help her along the way, good.

It is the same with Pinay women. For all practical purposes, they exist for me to impale on my middle leg. I am happy to give them some advice before patting them on their backsides and sending them on their way. They would be more interested if I could help them win a beauty pageant or get more guys to stick penises into them than giving them an unoriginal and biased account on how to rescue the Philippines form itself.

I am trying Tinder now. Most of my matches are with scam artists, who want to take the talk off line. It would be better than these interminable, unoriginal lectures.

Thanks RK for the heads up.

I recently found a gal online with an angelic face. In her profile she suggested that she was looking for a "lifetime" situation.

At some point I was in town. We exchanged a few more messages and I asked her about a good place to meet.

"How about ST at your hotel".

Those caught with their pricks up the holes of natives in Haiti, Nepal, and Africa are just the tip of the iceberg.

The NGO workers have a nice scam going where they earn inflated developed country salaries, stay in luxury hotels, fly first / business class, ride around in land cruisers, and eat expensive imported food. They do all of this on donations or grant money. Such parasites can hardly teach the local populations in developing countries anything about self-reliance.

The NGOs worsen conditions in developing countries as they increase corruption, and maintain the colonial farce of helping and educating the natives, while ignoring the rapaciousness of wealthy foreign governments and their corporations, which exploit developing countries for cheap labor and natural resources with the help of corrupt local politicians.

The life of the overpaid and underworked NGO parasite consists of writing reports with inflated data to make the situation sound direr than it actually is, sending emails expressing great alarm at local conditions, and forecasting catastrophe if donors fail to provide larger amounts of funding. This keeps the money rolling in for him to enjoy good food and drink at the finest local restaurants, luxurious housing with servants, and a young native mistress or wife. This still leaves him enough money to patronize the mid to upper tier prostitution establishments.

The native girlfriend or wife gives him his fig leaf of respectability to condemn sex tourists, as he can claim that his reasons for being in sex tourism country is "work" and "family" unlike those other guys. However, everyone can see through their bullshit. The only thing keeping them in these basket case countries is the easy access to young women of loose morals willing to take old sperms in all orifices for a small fee or favor.

What's the forum policy on posting links to interesting DIA, Tagged and Pinalove profiles with recommendations?

"How about ST at your hotel".[/QUOTE]LOL.

I know one with a sweet and innocent Facebook profile and on PinaLove it is similar. Her rationale is that she needs to attract a 'good man' for a husband. However, she is very naughty, loves all forms kinky and will go selfie [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord103][CodeWord103][/url] vids if asked.

Love the pinays.

It would also swamp the gals profile. The only good reason to identify someone here IMHO would be if she was a thief (or worse).
