Care free
Location : Near Guihulngan , Negros Oriental ( Philippine trip 2010 ) .
Taken whilst running side by side with this tricycle full of children from school .
I can only make a guess what ticks in the head for most people living in west viewing this pic is about health and safety first and foremost . I regard the Philippines as almost care free .You can agree or disagree . Things in rural areas are done as " do it at your own risk " kind of thing . There are regulations but it's hardly followed or implemented due to factors . Unlike the west which relatively riddled with so much tight regulations /standards , laws you have to follow ,a breech from them - you're down in the path of trouble .I am not saying either it's bad. Surely laws are made for the best functioning of society and the citizens there in .However , political correctness can go to the extreme right which can persecute one for life ,or loose one's job if not careful .
This is why I love the Philippines apart from being my motherland ,sure there are loads of pros and cons ,but it's pretty laid back . A better use of common sense and it will be fine .
In a nutshell , I like living in both worlds ,let's put it , no place on earth is perfect ever .
