Filipino Family

Filipinos regard the family as the center of their lives, primary support and source of moral strength.

To the Filipino, happiness is being with the family.

The Filipino family is closely-knit, where strong ties are maintained even after the children have married. It is not surprising to find an extended family system among Filipino families. We may also cite here the system of ranking and seniority with its corresponding authority as existing in the Filipino family --R. Rafael L. Dolor, author of Confucianism and its relevance to the Filipino Family

Jeepneys.


Jeepneys are the cheapest ride in the Philippines, and the most creative. One could never see two jeepneys of the same color and design. Jeepneys were designed by the Filipinos after World War II to use as means of public transportation and has become our most used public transportation today.
