Talah Turk: Amman’s Filipinos are the luckiest, with a whole area dedicated to their community. Manila Street, also commonly known as Little Manila, and Filipino or Egyptian Neighborhood, is an area with a large concentration of Asian and Arab immigrants. In the heart of Jabal Amman, Buhturi Street descends from Second Circle– which Filipinos refer to as the Panadol Roundabout – and is full of Asian grocery shops, discount clothing stores, as well as affordable restaurants and bakeries, some of which serve authentic Filipino dishes. Amman’s Little Manila is the place to go for Filipino delicacies such as crispy chicken skin and salted eggs, in addition to Asian products and the latest Filipino movies.The Filipino community is by far the most organized and active amongst all guest workers’ communities in Jordan. Filipinos are raised to be caring and considerate of others, which comes through in the type of events they hold and the way the UFO (United Filipino Organization) operates. If one person has a problem, it becomes the community’s problem.The Indonesian community is definitely the most private and, some might say, defensive.
Aaron Koller: Scholars have had difficulty identifying the precise borders of the tribes in Transjordan, and have suggested that one reason for the difficulties in pinning down the borders of the holdings of Reuben and Gad is that tribal identities were often fluid. This means that a town, or a group of people, may consider themselves to be Reubenites one century, but Gadites the next. These changes can take place through conquest, through political realignment, through cultural influence, and through other processes; it is a truism of modern research on ethnicity that identity is created through affiliation as much, or more, than it is inherited through genealogy.
Who is Gad? – was Gad part of Israel? an independent ethnic group? a subgroup of Moab? The anxiety over the stability of tribes settled in the Transjordan was well placed.
Throughout the history of biblical Israel, identity was never stable, and that the borders of the nation – defining who was and who wasn’t an Israelite – were constantly shifting, especially in the multicultural Transjordan. This historical reality provides important background for understanding the concern voiced by Moses about Reuben and Gad remaining on the eastern banks. We can only conjecture how these processes affected the Israelites as a whole, but it contributed, no doubt, to the Israelites’ growing sense that being a member of the people was dependent more on culture and religion than on biology alone.
Avrahom Dovid: Gad - we regret that we are unable to show you his resting spot at this time because his tribal territory is in the political entity called Jordan.
Moishe New: When will we have the complete Land of Israel that comprises the eastern bank of the Jordan [present-day Jordan and Saudi Arabia]? That will happen in the Messianic Era. That is yet to be fulfilled.

KAGAWARAN NG PAGSASAKA: Department of Agriculture (DA) Secretary Proceso Alcala ordered the temporary ban on the importation of domesticated and wild birds and their products including poultry meat, day-old chicks, eggs and semen from Haifa, Israel.
JTG (Misalyn): A Filipino and an Egyptian service crew members of Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) at Al Ain Mall.
Kuwait Food Company-Sharjah is the Emirates branch of the Americana Group that deals with the operation of the international franchises like Hardee’s, TGIF’s, Krispy Kreme, KFC and Pizza Hut.
Миноборонпром: The parties agreed to continue the practice of inviting Egyptian military to Russian exercises ~ in the capacity of observers ~ and, also, to hold a naval exercise, in the Mediterranean, this year, and an anti-terrorist exercise of rapid reaction forces.
Vicente B. Avanzado Jr.: Upon arrival at the airport in Ulan-ude, I was greeted by a smiling Russian- “Hello, Vicente”, I immediately recognized him from the Facebook pics and in a second, all my apprehensions were gone. “I’m so happy to see you Petr”, I said. He introduced me to his companion and fellow teacher, Anatoly, who was very quiet at first. Most Russians I know, especially tourists in our city in the Philippines are stoic and not too friendly. “Smiling is a sign of weakness for us. Initiative is punishable”, he quipped. What a difference from our part of the world, where smiling is a natural gesture and shows respect and hospitality. But this is their culture and character - it is who they are.
Aurora Avancena: It was a very unpopular move
"A film entitled 'An Open Door: Jewish Rescue in the Philippines' will be shown at 3 p.m.-5 p.m. on Nov. 23, 2014 at the Philippine American Community Center of Michigan (PACCM) in Southfield."
Dana Weiler: "It’s nice to see the children so happy, and not only to see them in the context of the fear of deportation," she said.
Filipino Sabado

Captain Nieves Fernandez, the only known Filipino female guerrilla leader and formerly a school teacher, shows Army Pvt. Andrew Lupiba how she used her long knife to silently kill Japanese soldiers during the Japanese occupation of Leyte Island.
Pvt. Lupiba was a bellhop at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles, California before entering service.

Yuval Ben-Ami: I reunited with Ruthie and both of us headed into the monsterous terminal building itself. There, inside a small bar, we met our friend Yonatan. All around him were platters full of noodles and sushi, bottles of soft drinks and balloons. They were all Filipinos, well, mostly Filipinas.
People from the Philippines arrive in Israel mostly as nurses, to care for the elderly and the handicapped. They are a community of some size and over the years many of them have put down roots here.
Yonatan added that we can move on whenever we wish. "There are other parties on tonight. People can hop from one bash to the next, like at the Mimouna." Mimouna is the feast North African Jews observe in honor of Maimonides following passover.
The next party, held at a community center in South Tel-Aviv’s Hatikva neighborhood, was utterly huge and soon erupted into some fine dancing.
Yonatan explained that each party was thrown by natives of different regions in the Philippines. With us here were the people of Pangasinan, on the island of Luzon. Following the dancing, they held a beauty pageant and kids got up on stage to sing. Yonatan and his colleague Noa knew the kids well and cheered them on.
I stopped 9-year-old Brigit in the community center’s corridor.
"What do you like best about Hanukkah?"
"Sufganiot!" she said, the Hebrew name of the holiday’s traditional jelly-filled donuts.
"Which candle of the menorah do you like best?"
"The Shamash!"Brigit is a smart and wonderful kid and I’m glad to have her share this country with me. Eventually, inevitably, lights are lit and puto pastries are served, right next to the sufganiot.
"torrent"
A lonely stroll
until
you run
into rainbows.
They spring up
under your feet
as sprinklers explode
and white foam gushes,
flooding the street
in a torrent of aberrant light
called happiness.

||Enrique Iglesias just moved into an monstrous new $26 million mansion in Miami that's so huge ... ya gotta see it from the air to get the full effect.
He didn't have to move far ... it's just two doors down from his old place -- which just sold for $6.7 mil. Apparently he likes the Bay Point neighborhood -- what's not to like -- it's known as Millionaire's Row because of the rich celebs who live there -- including Cher, Ricky Martin, and Matt Damon. And his dad, Julio, lives nearby.
Enrique had the new crib built to his specifications ... it's so big -- 20,000 square feet -- he had to buy TWO lots just to hold it.
Amenities, you ask?? It's got a lap pool ... a dock for his speedboat ... and a tennis court for longtime galpal Anna Kournikova.
When was the last time you bought your girlfriend a tennis court?||

Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
