Philippines But while the land may seem to elude accurate description, there is no mistaking the warmth and friendliness of the people. Filipinos, numbering 36 million, are genuinely hospitable and display a great zest for living. Their finest exports are dance and music. The Bayanihan, most famous of the country ' s dance troupes, has literally toured the world on foot before admiring audiences. Filipino musicians too, play from Tokyo to Sydney. And daily life in the Philippines pulsates with a gaiety that erupts into revelry on fiestas and festivals. Night life in the metropolitan cities can be as exhausting as it is exciting. European, American, Hindu, Arabian, Chinese and Malay in- fluences have been assimilated to varying degrees in the country. If that doesn ' t explain the Filipino character, it certainly provides a clue to the kaleidoscopic culture of the people. Nowhere else is Western culture brought into such a charming blend as in the Philippines, where Orientals have American nicknames, Spanish family names and speak Philippino and English. Nowhere else is Western culture also brought into such a colorful contrast with other ways of life as in this land where Igorots, Badjaos and 52 other ethnic groups follow age-old customs and traditions; where twentieth-century progress makes the country bustle at a frenetic pace without disturbing the leisurely clip-clop of calesas-horse-drawn carriages — on old streets or the gentle swaying of bamboos in the countryside. The Philippines is varied but, to a visitor, all these differences are pieced together by one thing: persistence. Persistence of the people as shown in their eagerness to please; persistence of the land that is bent on breaking down tourist resistance with its natural loveliness. HMCJ.R. HINTON
