Transvestite Secretary Wanted in Philippines

The Philippines is so much influenced by American culture though it retains its own, of course. The Pilipino people I worked with in Taiwan were all fluent in English with no strong accent. Today again, I was at a fast-food joint for reading and two men sitting at the next table were speaking with a heavy accent. Why?? It is so irritating to hear their off-key English, further corrupting my own. What is funny about the way so many people speak English here is their syllable stresses that are wrongly placed, even when their sentences are grammatically correct.

Graham Greene – Catholicism – Haiti – Philippines… That’s my chain of thought.
