    I'm Australian, living in Mindanao with my Filipina wife, and I have a great love for the Filipino people, and for the beauty of the Philippines. I knew that the Philippines accepted Jewish refugees from Germany when no other country would, but I had never heard about the White Russian refugees in the Philippines. My late wife in Australia was from a Latvian family. Her parents emigrated to Australia in 1949, around the same time as the resettlement of the White Russians. It is possible some of the people we knew in the Latvian community in Australia may have come to Australia in the way described here.

I just watched how under Manuel Quezon they saved something like 1200 jews from the Holocaust just before WW2. Now this about welcoming the White Russians. The Philippines is my home now and I found my sweet asawa here. Every day seems like the happiest day of my life. The Filipino people have every reason to be proud. God bless the Philippines.

    We may be portrayed by some as a country of cockroaches, slum areas, poor, governed by corrupt officials, traffic jams and other worst images but one thing for sure, I am proud to be a Filipino whose bravery, patriotism, resilience, hardwork, love of family and hospitality have been proven and tested many times in history even at present! We may have encountered many disasters and challenges in life but we can still afford to smile and laugh at them. We may be considered among the poorest but we cannot deny food and drinks to any visitor especially during celebrations. Our houses may not be as grand as the others but we can always welcome those who need shelter. We may be in pain but still we are capable of providing comfort. I am a Filipino and I am very much proud to be one!

    This part of Philippine history would never have been known, were it not for the efforts of Annaliza Gonzales, former mayor of Guiuan, Eastern Samar, her daughter Kinna Kwan (who did first-hand research and production of the video) and the President Elpidio Quirino Foundation. Kinna traveled to several countries to interview some of the original refugees and their descendants, as well as some Filipinos who made friends with the White Russians and told part of the story, in order to portray an accurate accounting of how President Quirino and the Philippine Government played a big role in saving the lives of over 6,000 White Russians who were escaping Communist tyranny, first during the Russian Revolution and later during the Communist takeover of mainland China. Lastly, I am proud to have been part of that history.

    President Quirino is probably the nicest President ever lived. Not only did he release Japanese soldiers back to Japan after the war but he also opened his country that is badly damaged by the war to people in need. When I read the story about how he forgave the Japanese and released them knowing that those same people was the same people who took his wife and children's life blew my mind away. It must've been the hardest decision he had ever made in his life. Specially with the anger of the Filipino people towards the Japanese army. I truly commend him from the bottom of my heart. I salute to you Mr. President.

So many people don't know how kind, generous, and welcoming the Filipino people are, and have never experienced the magnificence of their country. To all of the Philippines, may you continue to be a place of love, hope, welcome, and refuge to all who come to your shores. Mabuhay!

      we may be cash poor, but it is ingrained in us that we are rich. that's why it's easy for an average Filipino to give even if they have less, to smile even if they themselves are sad. we are always taught that the world is not about ourselves, but about us as a community.

Of over thirty countries I have visited the Philippines are probably the most hospitable place on this planet.

      What refugee has luxury? It’s survival, having a place to settle. When then Filipino Pres Quirino took them with open arms and later visited the camp and ordered putting down the fence, in their own words, it was a symbol of acceptance and hospitality, not to be treated as refugees but as part of the community. Humanity at it’s best. Anyone would take that over being imprisoned, worse killed by the communists.

There are a lot of stories happened in the past that was historical are not included in books just like the Battle of Yultong, How Philippines saved/rescued Russians, Jewish and Vietnamese and etc. It makes me feel like what they have taught in school is not the whole history, there's a lot of thing we actually do not know of.
