And you drive the R8 on the streets of Manila? How often do you need to get the bumpers repainted?

its wild wild west style over here...the loud horn helps a lot!
lane discipline is at its minimum!
courtesy doesn't exist!
these jeeps they showed stop anywhere they want for loading and unloading.

you also need to think first which car to drive depending where you'll be going.
i have the KIA Soul (RS) for that reason!

And then I watched the video to the end... it's so **** sad.

We should all thank our lucky stars we have been able to escape this level of poverty.

Have spent many many times in Manila with the family for holidays...fascinating city and I ride the jeepneys all the time.

The jeepney system is great despite it madness.But man the film shows how tough it is from the other side.

We provide sponsorship for some of the families we have meet there...reminding ourselves how fortunate.we are..

Maraming Salamat for the post
