I think you might be a little lost. The school and museum I was talking about are in the Philippines and the teachers are locals. Though this whole worship of English started with American colonialism...

Period dramas set in France. On one hand there's the glitter and social schemes, on the other, justice and revolution.
What a fucking weirdo :/
Just like that Chinese saying, "A white skin covers other flaws" (which I don't agree with, but I digress), "Being Christian hides your repugnant qualities"
Even this quote by him speaks to how biased and deeply partisan he is. His proposed solutions are not really the best way to significantly reduce gun deaths, but are republican ideologies and talking points.
Replying on October 17, the protests are not limited to the Sept 21 and subsequent rallies, apparently there are now spontaneous cries for justice in big community events. I am glad that we filipinos now see this not just as a scandal that will blow over, but something that permeates Filipino life. And the recent earthquakes in Mindanao was especially bitter... Debris from substandard projects (still under DPWH) had killed and injured some people, which is direct proof that these kurakots have silently murdered many people by their greed.
But it isn't about your keyboard; it's theirs.
Two questions though. One, if it is time, why eat a big lunch rather than a big breakfast? Two, if it is money, why not split lunch into breakfast and lunch?
I see breakfast as part of the time when you're getting ready for the day. I am not sure what else to respond to why it's shocking to me, it just is. I am also more likely to skip lunch than breakfast.
The amount of Americans in the comments who don't eat breakfast is shocking
Wow I did not expect for this to get there! And yeah it's just really bad, I thought the attitude was a thing of the past but when I visited that place I was shocked to see that sign. Another assumption I remember from when I was a kid is that the more American-like you can speak English, the more smarter or sophisticated you are. My only hunch as to why English is encouraged at the cost of our language is because a huge part of our economy is Tourism, BPO and Remittances from Overseas Filipino Workers.
I only hope that someday, the Philippines can attain some degree of self-sufficiency, so we don't have to groom our children as subordinates to foreign people.
