According to Oxfam, inequality is rising in Asia. The richest 10% of Asians capture 60% - 77% of national income. The poorest half? Just 12% - 15%.

The Philippines is one of the most unequal countries in Asia. While the archipelago is aiming to become a middle-class society free of poverty by 2040, its top 1% of earners still capture nearly one fifth of the national income. The bottom half shares just 14 per cent.

For Filipino youths, inequality starts even before they are born and continues to influence their whole life. Deep-rooted social stratification shaped by class forms structural barriers in access to quality education and land ownership. Now, many struggle to move up the social ladder.

Inequality was exacerbated by COVID-19. Although the Philippines is healing, the recovery has been uneven. The wealthy class are getting richer post-COVID. The poor, who suffered the most during the pandemic, are struggling with the rising cost of living.

Philippine 🇵🇭 Heroes only

At least 90 people have been killed while hundreds of thousands fled their homes as one of strongest typhoons this year ripped through the central Philippines, authorities say.

Typhoon Kalmaegi has flooded entire towns on the most populated central island of Cebu, where at least 49 of the fatalities were located.

Videos show people sheltering on rooftops, while cars and shipping containers have been swept through the streets.

The official death toll, which is likely to rise, includes six crew members of a military helicopter that crashed on Mindanao island, south of Cebu, after it was deployed to assist in relief efforts.

Did you know the Philippine islands have a hidden meaning?
These are Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.
Let’s start with Luzon. Its name comes from “lusong,” a wooden rice mortar tied to the island’s rice culture. Spanish records later called the locals “Luçon,” and over time, that became Luzon.
Moving on to Visayas—the name is believed to trace back to the Sri Vijaya Empire, a powerful kingdom in Southeast Asia. Some historians suggest that ‘Vijaya’ evolved into ‘Bisaya,’ which later became Visayas.
Finally, Mindanao. The name comes from the Maguindanao people. The word is a combination of “Magin,” meaning “people,” and “danaw,” meaning “lake.” So, Mindanao simply translates to “people of the lake.”

I started adapting fast to the ways of living in the Philippines? In this short, I show how I'm Learning the PINOY Way in the Philippines for 1 Week vs 1 Year. It's a hilarious transformation! At first, if I dropped a snack on the kitchen floor—boom, straight in the trash. But after a year here? I pick it up, blow it off, and eat it… waste not, want not! 🇵🇭🍴 This is Filipino culture in action—funny, real, and 100% relatable. Living in the Philippines teaches you to see food differently, and trust me, that 5-second rule hits different when you’re on Pinoy time. 🤣 If you’ve ever lived in the Philippines or know someone who has, you’ll definitely laugh at this! Drop a comment with YOUR most Pinoy habit, and don’t forget to hit that LIKE & SUBSCRIBE so you don’t miss more funny culture shocks and Filipino life moments. 🙌

Visiting an island in the Philippines closed off to all foreigners was an unforgettable experience.

A mayor in the Philippines has survived an assassination attempt after his convoy was ambushed with a rocket-propelled grenade on January 25

CCTV footage shows a black SUV carrying the local mayor pulling into a petrol station just after 6 am when an attacker fired an RPG from across the street.

Another gunman armed with an assault rifle also opened fire.

Two of the mayor’s security personnel were injured in the attack.
