China is painting itself as the leading nation in technology surpassing Japan and South Korea in innovation. A video of a smart car in Youtube will probably convince you of their rethoric but hold on. It might be a propaganda.

Wumaos online are going to convince you that China is the future and that continued defiance is a mistake as China is also painting itself as Asia's hope for the future. But all of it is wrong.

And one more thing; one can use this as a counter argument against a wumao.

I know no one is listening or even bother reading this post but I'll continue anyway.

I am an OFW in Japan working as an intern mechanic closing the end of my contract, I worked in a call center before ako nag abroad as an amateur mechanic. OO walang experience but a 3 month OJT.

I arrived in Japan 2 years ago with a goal of staying in Japan for a decade or less becoming an SSW 1 or 2 pero hindi na mangyayari yun.

I told myself while drinking my morning coffee. Same $#!+ different day.
I experienced physical, verbal and emotional abuse to the point na hindi ko na kayang mag "ganbatte" pa.

I admit na na neglect ko skills research ko due to my fear of making a mistake that inevitably ends to verbal abuse and degrading treatment ng mga ka work ko. Pero natuto ako ng basics na syang ngayon ginagamit ko for work, the thing is: Sobrang lala na ng situation ko at negative na ang opinion sa akin na kahit pa i prove ko na kaya ko ang isang trabaho Japanese workmates will shut me down anyway or will not let me do that specific job with matching verbal abuse using all the possible words from the dictionary. This alone hinders me from moving forward

You may be thinking bakit hindi mo na lang i ignore? I cant, It stays inside my head until manghina na lang ako ang eventually lead me to the idea of unaliving myself. (attempted twice)

I want to improve so I proved them that i am capable of it, thing is wala silang nakikita kundi yung mali, maliit na bagay pinapalaki while yung ibang filipino workmates ko does the same thing and they just shrug it under the rug. Worse pa nun I experienced being physically harmed na hindi mawala sa isip ko. fear na mangyari ulit I became defensive.

Now closing to my end of contract, unless maghimala ako sa performance ko specially sa sales (which is pahirap ng pahirap due to economic strains) i will not be achieving my goal anymore.

Dag dag pa ito:

1. Wala na akong gana bumangon sa umaga or any time of the day
2. Negative thinking all the time.
3. kakausapin lang ako ng filipino workmates ko pag galit sila.
4. S**cidal toughts
5. Generally lost all interest into everything.

Takot akong sabihin ito sa HR namin out of fear of reprecussion sa mga staff member or co-workers ko. Sabi nga ng dati kong supervisor who used to abuse me: You are not the victim here, we are.

In the end despite all my efforts na i-prove ang capability ko and despite ng lahat ng nagawa kong tama, only the mistakes are magnified and justified for my EOC.

Less than a year before my return I told myself, this might be the biggest decision mistake of my life.

Gagawin ko pa rin makakaya ko despite the inevitability, pero pakiramdam ko huli na.

I've been trying to argue with wumaos the past few weeks and I realized how they argue and spread propaganda online.

1. Highlights the benefits of road and belt initiative
2. Shames everyone who sides with the U.S and Japan military alliance
3. Highlights China as the only savior of South East Asian economy.
4. Highlights Japan's WW2 atrocities endlessly.
5. Criticizes the Philippine government's actions on protecting WPS while defending the CCP's aggression against The Philippines, Japan etc that any action made to defend our territories are damaging the peace and prosperity of Asia.
6. They also resort to threats like when war breaks out they will hunt you down etc etc.
7. Resorting to racism that only east asians use against Filipinos.

Their goal s to change you and your opinion so they can use you as a pawn for their propaganda.

I've been experimenting and the best solution I've found is to spread facts, be firm on defending The allied initiative on safeguarding peace and its your choice to side with the good guys. Not CCP while throwing facts on the comment section.

also steer the conversation towards the benefits of democracy and why we defend it. Don't get convinced otherwise.

To be continued....
