Precisely, my friend. I had the pleasure of visiting Dubai several years ago, and I kid you not most of the people there were South Asians: Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis.

The Philippines is known for hard working, and very educated people. In Japan we have a very large presence of Filipino workers in various fields; nursing, physical therapy, home care, teaching, engineering, agriculture.
