• Answer:

  The Philippines is a good country, according to the millions of Western tourists and Asian travelers who have made it their home. Imagine: 1. The world's largest and classiest malls within your reach - European brands such as Armani and Prada as common as local brands. 2. The world's most beautiful people right outside your doorstep - The mixture of the classic Spanish beauty, exotic Chinese charm, and esoteric Malay features blended into one people. The Philippines is home to lots of Miss International, Miss World, and Miss Universe, as well as some Mister Universe winners. 3. The world's most surprising diving spots just a drive away - the Philippines has been voted as the world's top diving spot - right beside Palau and Maldives. With the Philippines being the world's top country in number of endemic coral species, its underwater beauty cannot at all be underestimated. 4. Asia's most exciting and vibrant culture and nightlife, a fusion of the Latin and the Asian in a colorful way. Fiestas, hip bars and clubs, high culture parties. After 500 years of uninterrupted European and American colonization and influence, the Philippines is undoubtedly the world's largest Eurasian country in the world, both in culture and in its population. It is Asia's only country whose culture has been classified as "Western". It is also one of the world's largest Christian nations, and is the world's third largest English speaking country. 5. The world's most exciting ecotourism adventure destination. Consistently voted the best beach in the world (Boracay), the best hidden cove treasure (Survivor! France in Caramoan), the best limestone formations (Biri Islands), most perfect volcanic cone (Mayon), New Zealand of Asia (Batanes).
