Looks like its a closed case. Tim, based on what you said, I really hope that the Korean community in the PI has learned a lesson from all this and starts to treat Philipino people with respect. Deep down, I really doubt those Koreans will change at all, but I suppose if enough of them get killed for their action, maybe they will change their evil ways. Yes, not much more about this.

As it stands now, I have not heard word one more about this case. As I said in one of my postings on this subject, we probably won't hear anything else in the news here in the Philippines about it because it's not sensational enough anymore. You'd have to go and check through the police records to find out what eventually happened with this but that's not something I can take on. So, I guess that this topic ends here????

We're all human beings, there will always be bad filipinos, koreans, and americans, as well as good filipinos, kroeans, and americans. Each person will get either a positive a negative treatment, depending on how he treats himself. If you have low self-esteem and think other races are superior than you, then bad employers will smell this and treat you as inferior and abuse you. If you keep your chin up, be proud of your self, your race, don't be submissive, and don't take insults, then other races won't abuse you in your own country or in any other country. This is how it is anywhere (school, work, etc.) We should all just get along, Philippines-Korea-United States.

I am simply stating the facts as I have experienced them from speaking with Koreans and Filipinos alike here in the Philippines about this situation. All of my knowledge is first hand. You keep espousing the view that "People die everywhere, all the time." This statement is true but it has nothing to do with the situation at hand except for the fact that Koreans are dead and Filipinos are responsible for it. Since you are calling me a racist, you might want to know that I have a great love for the Korean people and their culture having lived there on and off between 1983 and 2000 with a grand total of 12 years in country. I have also lived in the Philippines now for almost 5 years and have experienced directly how Koreans come here and treat the Filipinos that they come into contact with. Is it right, of course not, is it happening, you bet it is and you can also bet that it is fueling a bit of the ill-will directed toward them. Am I, as an American without blame in this situation, maybe, maybe not. However, no matter where the blame lies the situation remains. Dr. Yu,

Come on ….. Something that always amazes in americans is their eagerness to point the finger to others for prejudice, hypocrisy, ignorance, violence etc despite of how much they do the same. Don’t use this tragedy to insult the Koreans. People die everywhere, all the time. Until the real reason for this crime is found, we should not do such racist assumptions. Tim,

The only reason the Koreans are flocking here is for the climate and the cheaper business opportunities. That is not the bad part. The bad part is that Koreans treat Filipinos like slave labor when they work for them here and in Korea and often call them stupid right to their faces, in Korean of course so that they cannot tell what is being said. This is what is fueling the undercurrent of resentment that I talked about before. I have no knowledge of this security guard incident that you quote and I'm not condoning any such behavior by Koreans or Filipinos. I'm simply pointing out the root causes for such occurrences. You, sir, wish to stir up controversy where none was intended. Your writings smell of the fringe element of society that has nothing better to do than to stir the sh*t storm to watch it roll.
