Is Peru the poorest country?

NO!! Philippines is not pretending to be poor. The Philippines used to be the richest country in South East Asia and was once called "Tiger Economy" due to some political instability and rebellion on the southern part of the country, its economy dropped. Followed by the biggest political drama in Philippine government history, the impeachment of the 13th President Joseph Estrada. Being accused of plunder, graft and corruption, the Philippines experienced a lot of economic problems and since then struggling economically. The Philippines is not pretending to be poor, It is a developing nation with its own government and a budding economy. Its society is very much comparable to any western first world cities. With its own share of business dedicated cities and industries with technological advancements. It is a contributor to the world culture, economy and politics as much as all other Asian countries are. But a large percentage, some 30+% of the population is living below the level of poverty. This projects the impression that the Philippines is poor. The people having been overwhelmed by constant difficulty and hardship has evolved to become a harebrained group of people. The evolution of the Filipino way of thinking which lead to the Filipino way of life has always been designed by the fact that it was a colonized country. When the Europeans set foot on this innocent land they started to deceive the locals into believing that they are bringing prosperity with them. Do not get me wrong, this is the same process of evolution for other colonized civilizations. The Mayans, Amazon Indians, and the North American natives for example. The contrast of us to these groups is that those that were left by the colonizers were left to fend for themselves and for the group where the colonizers stayed, continuous growth and development was sustained. Now, why is that? Is it simply because the colonizers had developed technology ahead of the colonized civilizations? To get back on track, when the locals of the Philippines felt that the colonizers came to overcome their rights, this has led to a revolt. 350 years of rule has cultivated a mindset of rebellion. Consider though, that the Philippines is a tribal land, with chiefs ruling from one island to the other. Thus the "this is mine" mindset has always been inculcated into a Filipino brain cell. Oh, yes even the early Vikings had that, but the white race has learned to integrate their interest earlier than the other races. Another example are the Africans, up to these days they still openly act and practice this tribal attitude. Therefore it is not illogical to analyze that many African nations are way behind the development of civilization in comparison to First world countries. Its like breeding a pit-bull. It takes generations to create a fighting trait from a domesticated breed. And vice versa, it will take generations to reverse the process from being domesticated to become wild again. Why do I have to compare this situation to breeding of pit bulls? Well, it is natural science. The Filipino gene pool is full of people who have a mindset of hungry, oppressed, envious and greedy, deceptive individuals. For some, these are hidden behind a mask of sacrifice, humility and hard work. Before World War II The Philippines is second only to Japan in manners of development and prosperity. After World War II, the Philippine government is constantly in decline towards national poverty. The truth behind the difference between Japan and Philippines is that Japanese people bounced back from being defeated and humiliated to become one of the worlds superpower because the mindset of the people is pride of what they do. They want to prove that they can do it without asking from anyone. The Filipinos did not bounce back because the mentality is already corroded by the desire to survive. This came from the colonized mind. Some country tried to colonize Japan, but the Japanese heart were never colonized and has always taken pride of their distinction as a race. The colonized Filipino have to portray a mask of integration towards its colonizers even way back more than 350 years. That is why the mindset of "taking care of ones own" is a subconscious desire for Filipinos. That is why there will never be a sincere leader nor a sincere follower. The acts of national heroes who the Philippines is trying to portray as their example of patriotism is basically another specimen of colonized mindset. The national hero (1896) for example has long integrated with the European colonizers to blend in, but literally had an internal desire to regain his identity by subversive rebellion. The last hero to have been assassinated (1987) may have sparked a gleam of hope trying to represent the ideal of democracy. Nevertheless he could have been representing his own political interest and had died in the process. These heroic symbols has never changed the mindset of the locals. Political leaders took this opportunity to further loot the government of its resources because the people were led to believe that they have suppressed a dictatorship and is now a democracy. But, uncontrolled, undisciplined freedom, without restrain is just as barbaric and uncivilized. This is no different from surviving from the hands of its colonizers. This characteristic trickles down from the top leaders of the country into political and religious groups and down to the smallest cell of the Filipino bloodline. In comparison the founders of America and other Great empires of this world were men of their own races who only wanted to become great in things that they do, not over others. Imagine, The Ceasars of ancient Rome, Genghis Khan, Alexander the Great, King Henry VIII, Napoleon, The Czars of Russia, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Emperor Hirohito and even Adolf Hitler. Not all these are righteous men, but they are men of their own races, not colonized, who wanted their nation to become great. They did not need to ask anyone for favours, they did it themselves. You must take notice that those who held on to power were eventually led to their downfall and those who passed on their legacy were led to greatness. I am writing this article not to offend my countrymen, but to wake them up from this primitive mindset. Because there are millions of us who are trying to get out from this humiliating representation in which the Filipino race and country itself is known. There are hundreds if not thousands of millions of Filipinos who can achieve greatness. Change will not just come from those who lead, but from all of us who chose them, who follow them and execute the way of life that is ideal towards the development of a nation. We can stop the "padrino" attitude, the "utang na loob", the greed, envy, deceit and crab mentality and all the other mask which we use to fool people to give us favours. We can have all the riches in this world but it will never change the true person within ourselves. But like I said, it will take generations to breed this out of our subconscious. We have to start from within, to pause and think back that we can live life, even if not materially prosperous but we can live a worry free and pride filled life without having to pull anybody down. We have to learn to live what the world gives because this world have so much but it is not without end. We can work hard but we should not be slaves to greed. We have to enjoy hard, the simple pleasures of life. If we act hungry, then we should not eat more than we can chew. If we taste the real flavour of food, then it is more pleasurable than hogging and stuffing ourselves. If we act like slaves then we will be slaves to everything this world has to give. If we act like freemen, then Freemen we should be. So is true for everything we do in this life. When we eat, work and live. Taste your food, do not be greedy, there will be and there should be enough for everyone. Stop when you had your fill. Live your life and you will find that the mind is so very powerful that discipline can make all the difference. They say knowledge is power and it is only so if you use it properly. If we can achieve this harmonious approach to living, only by then we have raised our standards to civilized level that we may and can eventually achieve prosperity. We must let go of greed and power and must pass on our legacy. For now, we have to contain to the fact that all our refined effort will be collected into one and hope it will eventually breed out the unsophisticated character that are innate, in a massive number of our people.
