    Filipino values like family, hospitality, and working together in times of need can help uplift the poor condition faced by many Filipinos. Over 16% of Filipinos live in poverty, unable to meet basic needs. However, Filipino culture emphasizes family as fundamental, with children caring for parents. During the pandemic, over 500,000 poor Filipinos received food through community efforts showing how cooperation can help those in need. Maintaining values of family and helping one another can thus play a role in addressing poverty.

    Do you think Filipino Values can also help in uplifting the poor condition of the
    majority of the Filipinos?

    I believe that Filipino Values can uplift the poor condition of the majority
    of the Filipinos.

    Poverty is the most serious affliction that the majority of Filipinos face.
    According to Philippine Statistics Authority (2020), In 2018, Philippines had an
    estimated at 16.7 percent of poor Filipinos whose per capital/income is
    insufficient to meet their basic food and non-food needs. This translates to about
    17.7 million Filipinos living in poverty in 2018.

    The family is the most fundamental and significant unit in a Filipino's life.
    Unlike in Western countries, young Filipinos are not expected to leave their
    parents' home when they turn 18. When a Filipino's parents become frail and
    unable to care for themselves, they are cared for in their children's homes and
    rarely taken to Homes for the Aged by their children. Moreover, throughout the
    time the whole family is together, Filipino parents teach their children to be
    hospitable and helpful to each other. These Filipino values are passed down
    from generation to generation.

    Around 100,000 poor households, or half a million people, from all over
    Metro Manila, including people with disabilities in Caloocan City, received food
    packs on April 30. Wide private sector and philanthropic partners including the
    Philippine Disaster Relief Foundation and the Philippine Chamber of Commerce
    and Industry helped to extend distribution to at least 40,000 additional
    households (Asian Development Bank, 2020). This is one of the examples where
    Filipinos work together especially in times of need. If Filipinos will continue this
    values, it would be a great help to uplift the poor condition here in the
    Philippines.
