It's quite refreshing to see foreign people who appreciate the Philippines, the beauty it brings and the characteristics the inhabitants portray.
In a time where everyone, especially fellow Filipinos are bringing our country down just because of their personal interest, it makes everyone very happy to read letters of appreciation quite like this.
Malcolm Conlan, a British Citizen with a Filipino heart who has been traveling back and forth to his home and here for over 25 years already, took it to Facebook to express his gratitude to President Rodrigo Duterte.
According to him, having seen many improvements gradually taking place in the country, he said that he speaks for many people around the world when he says that Philippines, to them is one of the greatest countries in the world.
This, he said is due to the incredible, friendly, caring, loving and hospitable people. He noted that whenever he travels around the world, he is always met with a friendly smile an a positive attitude. And he claims that since President Duterte took the seat, he felt an increased sense of pride in the Philippines and renewed hope for a better Philippines, free of corruption, drugs, and criminality.
"Whenever you travel around the world, you will always be met with a friendly smile, positive attitude and since you have taken office, an increased sense of pride in the Philippines and renewed hope for a better Philippines, free of corruption, drugs and criminality under your world class leadership."
He also added that PRRD is a shining example to world leaders on how to engage their electorate.
"With a popularity rating of over 80%, you are a shining example to world leaders on how to engage with your electorate, bring about real change and increase confidence in the country and people."
Doesn't this make you proud? Read his whole post here.
An Open Letter to the President of the Republic of the Philippines, Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
Dear Sir,
I am writing to you to pass on my grateful thanks from the many foreigners around the globe, along with many millions of Filipinos who greatly admire you for your strength of leadership, dedication, humbleness and desire to see a better Philippines for us all.
I have been traveling to the Philippines now for over 25 years and have been 'back home' over 50 times.
Over the years, I have seen many improvements gradually taking place and have fallen in love with the country and people. Right now the Philippines is massively moving forward in terms of infrastructure, through the Build Build Build program, which I had the absolute honor of attending the program launch last April in Manila.
I know many around the world are looking forward to promising improvements in roads, railways and bridges, even a subway system to make commuting easier and lessen Manila's traffic problems, as well as leading to further increases in tourism to the country.
I know I speak for many people around the gone who visit the country, when I say that the Philippines to us, is one of the greatest countries in the world.
This is also due to the incredible, friendly, caring, loving and hospitable people.
Whenever you travel around the world, ou will always be met with a friendly smile, positive attitude and since you have taken office, a increased sense of pride in the Philippines and renewed hope for a better Philippines, free of corruption, drugs and criminality under your world class leadership.
With a popularity rating of over 80%, you are a shining example to world leaders on how to engage with your electorate, bring about real change and increase confidence in the country and people.
Maraming Salamat po sir, I always pray for your continued strength, dedication and foresight, your leadership has helped millions of Filipinos both in the Philippines and around the world.
Humbly yours,
Malcolm Conlan
