The Amazing Race in the Philippines

We'll, for me, I want the reality series to come back in the Philippines. I think it is the best way to promote our beautiful country to the rest of the world, and to make the Filipinos proud of its own identity. After all, the Philippines is the "Pearl of the Orient".  Cool
 
I would suggest Boracay Island, Cebu, Cordilleras, or Baguio City as the pit stop for the return of TAR in the country. I think these spots will truly sparkle up the beautiful wonders of our country, after all, these are world-renowned and can truly be compared with the best of the world.  Cheesy

Yup! Philippines is a cool country. However, this thread should be moved to the Gossip section. This is not a spoiler.

Well, I want them to improve their portrayl of India. India is probably the spiritual capital of the world. Lots of magic and temples. Instead, they visit urban slums.

I agree. They portrayed Thailand in a spiritual way and I wanted to see India portrayed the same way as well.

Buddhism originated in Bihar in the Himalayas. Many East Asians (ie: Thai, Burman, Chinese, Japanese, Malays, Vietnamese) come to India to follow Buddha's path.

We'll, the Philippines is much better! It is the lone Christian country in Asia, a fusion of the east and west cultures, wonderful 7,107 islands, and considered one of the most diverse, unique and vibrant countries in Asia. It is also rich in history that became the cornerstone of other countries in Asia.

I live in one of three Catholic-majority states in India. Yes, there are 3 (Mizoram-where I am, Nagaland, Meghalaya)! There is also 1 Muslim-majority (Jammu & Kashmir), 1 tribal-majority  (Arunachal Pradesh), 1 Sikh-majority (Panjab) and one pending Buddhist-majority (Ladakh, an area that is soon to secede Jammu & Kashmir and create its own administrative division).

I like Lucknow. It was the best India leg so far.

I agree Lucknow was nice, but I want them to go to Goa. They always make India look bad, but there are so many nice places too. Goa is a tourist place and it has very nice beaches and resorts, and it would be cool if they went there.

I want them at Goa too. Back in TAR 4, they somehow made beautiful Kerala look ugly. However, they do pick wonderful pitstops in Indian legs.

That is because they feature India in a grave way, with poverty as a huge thing. No, I don think I want Manila in Philippines cuz u know, it doesnt have the GOOD image. Traffic, and pricing in taxis I think that its not good 4 the tourism, looking forward to Subic, Banaue, Cebu or Baguio.

Well, India is better than 1/2 the countries in the world, fortunately. I guess the idea of having a billion people distorts everything, where every problem looks so "large".
