Filipino Fever...菲律宾热情...フィリピンフィバー...

Remember how in 2007 i discovered Filipino entertainment and fell head over toes over the Philippines, it's people, it's culture, all just because of the 'soft power' of Filipino entertainment? Well, I am now revisiting that 'filipino fever' of mine, which kinda lowered for the past year before in recent weeks i'm kinda getting that 'filipino fever' back again!

Some songs I like: adik sayo (addicted to you): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JITAGe7YHw

Ikaw Lamang (Only You):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9ycF5vqGR0

Tayong Dalawa MV (Two of Us): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzVf6_bpqkQ

The girl in the above MV is very pretty, her name is Kim Chiu, one of the new top talents in the Filipino industry. She's pure Chinese, being Filipino-Chinese, born to Chinese immigrants from Fujian Province, China. (Most Filipino-Chinese in the Philippines are from Fujian Province, thus being Hokkien people.)

Also, some movies from the past i love...'Got 2 Believe' (on youtube with malay subs), especially the end of the movie:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mpf24xQDG7k

and 'You are the one', one of my fav romantic comedies of all time!: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSRQbpwux58

My love for Filipino culture and entertainment has also led to my peak in interest in the Philippines and understanding its current affairs, people, and issues. Have a look at this Current TV docu on Philippines No.1 export, its people!:
