They were robbed.

Just after WWII the country was very successful. Filipinos were robbed of their economic success by Marcos. He established a corrupt and inefficient government and he took billions of dollars out of the economy for his own use. It is well tested that corruption is one of the most damaging forces working against economic growth.

Why do you think indolence among the Filipinos should not be considered the cause of their backwardness?

Indolence should not be considered the cause of backwardness among Filipinos because it oversimplifies complex historical, social, and economic factors that have contributed to the country's development. There are systemic issues such as colonial history, unequal wealth distribution, and lack of infrastructure that have a bigger impact on the country's progress than attributing it to indolence. It's important to address these larger structural issues rather than resorting to stereotypes.
