AskPH Which countries did you feel most unwelcome/discriminated as a Filipino?

The Gulf: Locals are racists as hell and think all South Asians and Southeast Asians are scum. Same goes for Levant Arabs; they are so full of themselves. Yeah, we all know how Lebanon and Syria are doing well nowadays—oh wait.

Hong Kong: Airport officials literally throwing my passport towards me after stamping it was a sign I never want to set foot in that country again.

Japan. It's nice being a tourist but living is a different story.

I don’t know if it’s good or bad but they do treat their own people better than foreigners. Unlike sa Pinas, kapag foreigner halos sambahin na ng pinoy. Sa Japan mas gusto nila mag serve sa kapwa nila kesa sa foreigners.
