I am Australian married to my beautiful filipina wife.

We currently live in Australia but spend a lot of time in the Philippines.

Comparing our two countries, I would say the Philippines is definitely a free country.

Australia in comparison, a country that is supposed to be free is more of a communist police state. The contrast between our countries is so great that i cannot wait until we are in a position to leave Australia and live in the Philippines permanently.

I wish Australia had the freedoms you guys do. Even with the poverty Filipinos are generally happy, whereas here we may have cleaner streets and more space and money, but nobody is happy because we have no rights, people think we do but believe me, we don't.
