Me and the Characteristics of Filipino Traits by Camilo Osiasis

1. Hospitality - I very much agree with Camilo Osiasis that Filipinos are very hospitable. Actually, sometimes you would think other Filipinos are over reacting about hospitality, but no, that is what really Filipinos do. A good example is how a Filipino citizen welcomes and assist a Foreigner visitor.

2. Politeness - this trait is also ample in us Filipinos. Most Filipinos are very humble to other people, taking others as greater than themselves.

3. Modesty - nowadays, modesty in Filipinos are very much questionable. Because not all Filipinos have normality and propriety of manner. Many are indulged in drug addictions, alcohol, sex, etc.

4. Devotion to Families - I agree on this. Example: pag inaway mo yung isang miembro ng pamilya nila, kaaway mo na ang buong pamilya.

5. Love of Home - this is very true. In such cases that Overseas Filipino Workers will die abroad, they would want their burial to be in the Philippines.
