A fediverse community for the Philippines and all things Filipino!
Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Tourism seems obvious but that cant happen until infrastructure is addressed. It can be difficult for locals, its a nightmare for tourists. Manila can't be much until traffic issies are addressed, so much lost prodictivity for locals, let along the entire city is often a barely moving parking lot.
None of that can be adressed until corruption is dealt with :).
