Greetings, everyone.
I wonder why the people in the Philippines don't show interest for seld-development.
I think that "self-development" is an indirect source to enhance the international competitive power in each country.
Although I have stayed in this country for three years,
I haven't heard people spending their time developping themselves in their private time.
In the other hand, Filipino culture places a high value on education to acquire a better future.
1. Why don't the people in this country value self-development
in spite of high value of education?
2. As this country bring economic growth to fruition,
do you think that this will be changed increasingly?
Please give me your opinion.
I think that it takes long year until self-development disseminate among people as long as they value the time with family for good or bad. If this society goes toward the nuclear family and people value self-fulfillment, the condition of self-development will be made. In this sense, I feel that they won't take a leap forward huge ecnomic growth in near future.
