5. Educational system- Aside from the problems inherent in the use of a foreign language in our
educational system, the educational system leads to other problems for us as a people. The lack
of suitable local textbooks and dependence on foreign textbooks, particularly in the higher school
levels.
6. Religion – Religion is the root of Filipino optimism and its capacity to accept life's hardships.
However, religion also instils in the Filipino attitudes of resignation and a preoccupation with the
afterlife. We become vulnerable also to being victimized by opportunism, oppression,
exploitation, and superstition.
7. Economic environment- Many Filipino traits are rooted in the poverty and hard life that is the
lot of most Filipinos. Our difficulties drive us to take risks, impel us to work very hard, and
develop in us the ability to survive.
8. Political environment – The Philippine political environment is characterized by a
centralization of power. Political power and authority is concentrated in the hands of the elite and
the participation of most Filipinos often is limited to voting in elections.
9. Mass media - It is the primary means of communication used to reach the vast majority of the
general public.
10. Leadership and Role Model - Filipinos look up to their leaders as role models. Political
leaders are the main models, but all other leaders serve as role models as well. Thus, when our
leaders violate the law or show themselves to be self-serving and driven by personal interest--
when there is lack of public accountability--there is a negative impact on the Filipino.
