There was this scene in the musical play, MISS SAIGON, where the pimp portrayed by Jonathan Pryce was singing a song entitled “The American Dream”. The lyrics narrates his dream of being in America dressed in a flashy expensive suit and driving a pink Cadillac sedan. This is the imagination we all have about success.. This is what I dreamed when I came to America in May,1979. I was filled with great excitement to see Las Vegas with its bright lights and expansive casinos and Disneyland with its fun rides and eye-popping parks.When my brother in-law gave us our first tour of Seattle, we were amazed seeing the expensive waterfront homes and mansions.

My wife and I came to Manila last June 27, 2010, to attend the inauguration of President-Elect Benigno Aquino III as the 15th President of our Philippine Republic. There were about 200 delegates from the US and other countries who arrived to celebrate his victory and attend a 2-day conference on good governance. US Pinoys for Good Governance hosted this conference which invited local speakers and Fil-Am conveners to discuss ways in which OFWs can help the new government to alleviate poverty and institute genuine democratic reforms in our country.
