do most people in the phillipines speak English, it seems like a lot of people on this site go back and forth pretty easily.

It's our second language. It's taught from Elementary and used all throughout up to University. So a lot of people who went to school are fluent, those who didn't can converse and get their message across.
Honestly man, why does it surprise a lot of foreigners? The first time I got here in Canada, first thing I heard from a Canadian was... you can speak English?? I go WTF? lol.....

It is just cool that's all. It is a little bit embarrasing when someone from another country has taken the time to learn your language and you can't even say hi in theirs.

I hope you don't think I took offense, I honestly want to know why foreigners are surprised. I've asked my non-filipino friends and they can't seem to answer me straight. I really just want an honest opinion, so if you have one shoot it out.
Mostly I think it's when they show those documentaries or those adopt a child charity thing they do on Asian children on TV. All you see is how bad some people live and nothing else... well, just my opinion.
