    The Philippines is considered a collectivist society due to the unity and compassion shown among Filipinos, even with their diverse cultures and languages. Filipinos value public welfare and help each other in times of need through "bayanihan" or brotherhood. They are loyal to their families and consider the impact of their actions on others rather than just themselves. Being part of a collectivist culture in the Philippines unconsciously influences Filipinos' sense of self.

    Is the Philippines really a collectivist society?

    Give examples, and if true, how does this shape/impact our


    idea of self.

    Philippines is known for being a diversified and colorful country. Aside from having thousand of islands,
    it has various languages and different kinds of cultures and traditions. Notwithstanding, the unity and
    compassion Filipinos have is evident which made the country a collectivist one. Philippine has a
    democratic type of government. It clearly shows how Filipinos move together as one. The country values
    the rights and freedom of it’s people by upholding public welfare. Filipino has this trait of what we called
    “bayanihan” or brotherhood. We care for each other and treat them as a family, especially in times of
    calamity, you will see the heart full of compassion and loyalty. They think not only for their own sake,
    but also for other people around them. Filipinos also treasure the strong relationships they have with
    their family and extended loved ones. The long-term commitment they have shows how loyal and loving
    they are. Being collectivist of the Philippines affects the life of every Filipino and unconsciously gave
    impact on their own self.

    The self of one is not shapes by the himself alone, it is being influenced by the things around him. Every
    norms, rules, rights, and culture of the place he lives in affects the way he think and move.
