While I was watching ANC On The Money, a question from an OFW was raised up and it asks,
Most of the people left in the country expects an ex-abroad to have saved a lot of money. But they wouldn't have known that at the back of these ex-abroad workers are scared of that expectation. We'll it's not that they have nothing. Most of them would have saved for a more important thing such as their children's education, house and lot perhaps, bills, life insurance fees probably and other things.
Filipinos have one characteristic famously known as "Pa-libre naman jan attitude". This happens usually when a person achieved something then someone says ti him/her "Pa-burger na yan". Sa kabila nito, dahil masaya siya, nagpaburger nga. This is something nice in a way that we get along and celebrate things in life. This also applies to OFW's and most of their family and friends says "Pasalubong ko ha! Size 7 (mentioning his shoe size) ".
Kaya ang ibang OFW ay nagtatago. Hinid nila pinapaalam na nasa abroad sila. Pag umuwi hindi rin pinagsasabi. Nope! This aren't tips guys!
Let's go back to the show On the Money. The guest's answer was,
I would like to add. If you can prepare pasalubong before going home, then that would be nice to show that you have thought of them while you were away. Pasalubong doesn't have to be expensive. Remember that you don't have to show off.
Welcome party doesn't have to be extravagant. It is always nice to tell your family at home ahead of time that you don't need a big party. A simple get together with kumustahan para makabawi sa mga araw na nagdaan, is already a big event in your life. You could always suggest to them specific filipino foods that you would like to eat that you haven't eaten for a long period of time.
I hope you enjoyed reading. Sa mga OFW, masayang pagbabalik. At sa mga naiwan, gawin sana nating masaya ang kanilang pagbalik at hindi perwisyo sa paglalabas ng pera and kanilang datnan.

" I'll be going home in the Philippines. My family and friends are expecting me to shoulder the money that will be used for the incoming occasions. My question is, should I start hiding myself?"

" You don't have to shoulder every occasion that comes. Be polite and honest to them that this is the only budget I can share. Like for example, I can only give an amount of php 5,000.00. That's it."
