We were there...

this site is dedicated to the proposed name change of my beloved nation, the philippines. as described on the site:

We want to change the name of the country to once and for all escape the chains of colonialism. While we may by physically free, we are still bound by mental slavery. Every time we say Philippines, Filipino or anything derived from it such as Pinoy or Noypi, we are in essence bowing down and showing our allegiance to the ghost of King Philip II of Spain.

so what do you think about the proposed name change of our nation?

changing our country’s name is like losing our identity as Filipinos… so, no :)
