population is Christian in majority. Mulsims live only on the island of Mindanao, where it is quite dangerous for foreigners to go. No security probems for the rest of the country. English is one of the official languages,next to Tagalog. I am learning Tagalog at the moment.

Seems to me that it is just as much work learning new cultures as new languages but good luck.

China seems to have some annoying culture like the wife's brother can carry a key to the house you have just bought.I seem to have created bad feeling demanding the key back. I told him, I dont have your house keys.Today is grim, the kitchen they tell me is made of stone without labourers to carry it up six floors. I never asked for a stone kitchen!
