wow naku ang mga skolar na ang nambatikos sa chip munks na Chip Tsao!

alah kung nasaktan kayo, ako hindi kasi..

‘The War at Home’

ang realidad nyan hindi lang ma-express ni Chip Tsao na galit sya sa kapwa nya na chinese…

in his article mapapansin mu na inilalarawan nya na ang kanyang bansa ay umaasa lang sa mga pinoy ofw..

at yung ilang kapwa nilang chinese ay nawawalan na ng trabaho dahil mukhang occupado na ng mga pinoy… anu ba yan! Gumawa sya ng storya upang mapansin ng gobyerno nila na nasasadlak na rin sa pinansyal krisis ang katotohanan na dapat na sila ma-insecure dahil nawawalan na ng employment ang tau nila, napupunta lang sa mga Filipino lahat ng pinaghihirapan nilang pera kuno!

“The reason: There are more than 130,000 Filipina maids working as HK$3,580-a-month cheap labor in Hong Kong.”

abah hindi pa sya nakuntentu…

“you don’t flex your muscles at your master, from whom you earn most of your bread and butter.”

ipinarinig nya eto sa mga pinay, pero patama sa inang bayan nila ang linyang eto, kasi ang master nila ay ang higanteng pula.. aminin nya man o hindi
isa syang takut na pusa sa dambuhalang daga na amo nya! sa totoo naman nagpasakop pa sila sa higanteng pula diba instead of magcrave sila na lumaya eh they don’t flex their muscles at their master, from whom they earn most of their bread and butter patama sa higanteng pula… ah hindi ko pala nakailmutan na alila din sila ng triads este anu ba yun thriads ng big red!

“gave her a harsh lecture”

harsh lecture? or torture? he mean that his kabayan now doing harsh things against Filipinos! dahil ingit sila! or baka naranasan din nila eto noon!

“but we have a hostage in each of our homes in the Mid-Levels or higher”

oh they have big nuber of hostages ever since, we oftenly hear real news regarding some ofws ikinulong at sinasaktan ng amo nila! ganun din nangyari sa ilan nilang kababayan sa kanilang mother land nuon!

” paying her to wash my toilet and clean my windows 16 hours a day”

maliwanag po ang nasabi nya nagmamalabis na sila sa mga pinoy! ang eksenang eto ay ginagawa nila para ibaling sa mga pinoy ang gulong nararamdaman at nararanasan nila sa kanilang bakuran na sila rin ay inaabuso din ng kanilang mga landlords!(sinu nga ba ang kanilang lords?)

bakit ba malayo sila sa Tibeth na nais nang kumawala sa higanteng pula?

oh ayan atah ang picture ng ‘The War at Home’ by Chip Tsao! looking sa dating buhay ng Hong Kong!

modernised na ang knilang bansa ah bakit hindi na nila i-asa pa sa mga robot yung gawaing bahay nila…

bwahahahaha buti pa ang robot i switch on mo pwede mo na alilain… at di na mag reresbak… pero ang taong nakaranas ng pag mamalabis nung sya ay isa pang alila di magtatagal kapag umasenso na gagagwin nya rin ito sa kanyang kapwa kahit sa kanyang alipin na tumulong sa kanya upang bumangon!

C. Tsao thinks he is a patriotic Chinaman, the kind of patriot that incites others to hate his country and people. I wonder how he and his publisher could come up with a bizarre notion that what he wrote is a satire. Would it be satirical and hysterically laughable if I write that the Chinese are a bunch of pimps for not too far in the past, they sold their daughters as whores? Would it be satirical to say that since this Tsao wrote that he finds the Russian and the Japanese are worthy opponents, and not the Pinoy, that perhaps, the Rape and Massacre of Nanking by the Japanese is just fine by Tsao’s measure. If I made Tsao and his cohorts mad, please understand I’m just being satirical (LOL).

Now – addressing Tsao directly: Your notion of self-importance and Chinese supremacy is laughable. I guess it stems from your country’s history of inferiority complex. If your inflated sense of power over others represents Chinese attitudes then your country does not deserve the respect of its neighbors – people like you are proving China does not know how to handle power and it’s scary because of your bush-league mentality.

Sorry to say but you’re a sorry-ass racist trying to hide your true sentiment under the guise of “satire”. You’re doing your country a disservice with your chest thumping. BTW, your behavior towards your “servant”, by all human standards, is shameful and you seem to be proud of it. I’m a Filipino-American, I know what a decent wage is, so don’t be boastful of the pittance you pay your Filipina help. Also, don’t forget where the term “Amah” came from.

The article was satirical. Please allow responsible people to comment freely on your site. My comment about the article being satirical and actually critical of the sino-centric mentality of many HK citizens was deleted. Thank you.

This man deserves to be crucified. He is an embarassment to BBC and all other media outfits he’s been associated with.

I guess Mr. Tsao got a wrong info about the course of his domestic assistant Louisa. Based on my research, the University of Manila is not offering a certain ‘international politics’ degree.

Thanks for publishing this so that people around the world may know that we, Filipinos contributed so much to the growth of their respective countries by providing them with human resources. Little do they know we have so many IT professionals working for big IT companies around the globe.

This is something that is very much tolerable (at least to me) but indeed hurt the feelings of not just to professional Filipinos but to the Filipino masses as well.

I wanted to share a very relevant quote on this issue by Jasmine Guy, “Bigotry and judgment are the height of insecurity”

Go go go Pinoy! Be proud to be one! We are highly skilled and most judgment are based on their insecurities, ha ha…

About CHEAP TAO (Chip Tsao).

I was just wondering about his background and his so-called reputation of being a best-seller author.

If we will dissect his opinion, it is obvious that he is nothing but a superficial and uncerebral writer. He is definitely illogical and with a dysfunctional cerebrum.

First, the dispute over spratly island is a political issue. So as a socalled writer, he should know that the quantity of Filipino workers in Hongkong has nothing to do with this issue nor this should silence our nation (or corrupt government) in claiming ownership to these islands. That is tantamount to say that America has a right to claim a chinese island and China should keep quiet and submit itself to USA. Following the logic of this so-called writer, there are a lot of chinese in USA who cooks greasy food in their sub-standard and dirty kitchens. Or Canada can claim ownership to hongkong because there are a lot of chinese in Canada. So many that they are on the top of the list when it comes to violating health standards not to mention those empty bottle pickers who roam around the malls and street because they can’t get a job. They cannot simply speak English.

If he wishes to express his disapproval, he needs to think better to come up with sound arguments. He should site political issues, international laws and logic. Expectedly, from a writer who does not think, he insults the people who feeds his family and takes care of his children. His article is a total crap, rubbish, junk and a work of a single neuron.

We are not a nation of servants. We are a nation family-loving people who would work hard just to take care of our family. Unlike them, they are a nation of wealth but their lives revolves on money that they live their entire lives worrying about money. Their values evolved and revolves around money. Their blant and flat affect and faces show it. They are a nation who are obsessed on prawning and that is their national identity. They are totally void of human relations.

Hongkong should start rethinking about their socalled writers. It is a grave insult to them to even think that this creature is a writer.

chip tsao should go here in the philippines and try to say the words he said in that article in order for him taste the consequences of his words. his act is a clear manifestattion of how educated he is, it reflects the kind of school he came from, it reflects what kind of curriculum his school has, it is way below of the accepted standard. does he is not aware that discrimation is strongly condemned internationally, i think he should go back to school to read and study again he need to be reeducated. this kind of person is a shame to the world of journalism, he lacks the basic principle of journalism that is “responsible journalism”, does he know this, i bet his ignorant about this.

Apology is not enough, he should face prior consequences of what he wrote, which shows that
he is not capable to declare himself a writer even if he is award winning. What he wrote shows his wrath,inhumane and ignorance.
