In my opinion, yes.
Leaving is the best way to remove the negative exceptionalism present in your mind, reducing the perpetually-insular outlook when it comes to PH. “Only in the Philippines!” yeah, try living overseas for some time before you believe that.
It works both ways. You want to experience the better things the world has to offer na wala sa Pilipinas? Enjoy it to your heart’s content. Or are you there to learn about the good and bad lessons learned by the foreign country and later return to contribute something constructive? Good for you and keep the growth mindset and heart of curiosity.
Sabi ng mga naka-experience na is 2nd class citizen pag nasa ibang country. Di pako naka-travel abroad so di ko pa na-feel yun, pero kung may money ka naman dito na lang sa Pinas. If di mo gusto sa province mo, baka meron pa rin dito satin na maayos mamuhay.
Totoo yan. But, some people fail to educate themselves why it made them feel that way. Binabalik nalang nila yung prejudice and that’s just sad.
