US Marine Gets a Taste of Filipino Hospitality, After Delivering Relief Goods
Quote:
“Aside from the uplifting news about Manicani Island, Eastern Samar (wherein there was only 1 casualty from its population of 3,000), here’s more from that island: According to KumoNews, when Us Marine Maj. John Orio flew his chopper into the isolated island, he only expected to be giving out goods – not receiving them! Filipino hospitality shines in Maricani as they treated Orio to a fresh coconut and a giant crab. They also had the strongest men help unload the relief goods in an orderly fashion.
Their smiles on TV and their positivity are what we need after a week of blaming, politicizing, and lambasting.”
Thanks to Diep, She's originally from Vietnam who lives in Denmark
Quote:
The Filipino took the photo says she's been crying when she
saw Diep on the street with this banner asking
for help and she approached her then but Diep says
she doesn't speak nor understand english well
but seeing the Filipina crying, she cried and
hugged her too
We thank you for all the people who shown compassion and care for all our people. May God Bless all of you in return!
