I marvelled at their dullness when they were preparing for MDCN certification exams during my housejob.

They're just like condemned products e.g-cars, computers etc dat are shipped to Nigeria and Africa.

Says who? Any proof? So our own medical schools (UI, UNN, UNILAG, ABU,OAU) can't withstand Philippine medical schools?

Philipines? Couldn't he have found somewhwere better like the United States? Someone as brilliant as him would have had no trouble getting a scholarship in America.
Philipines na "Chinko Ekun" country. The people in that country are busy trying to convince themselves that they are white and so they act more racist than white people would normally act.
They are a confused lot.

Dude get ur facts right. Have u ever been to philippines before. U just said d exact opposite who they are. They are homely and see blacks as foreigners ( d same way nigerians used to see white). they look at u with astonishment and always happy to want to get close to you. So i implore u never to give wrong informations.

Please shut up for long enough to do some basic thinking. I don't have to go to Syria to know that ISIS is intolerant of non muslims.
Neither do I need to be in America to know that being simply being black will make you an automatic target of suspicion whenever crimes are committed.
All I have to do is speak to people who have been to Sout East Asia and read about these places online:

It is your own thinking and lack of belief in your abilities as a blackman that will lead to your downfall.
It is that same lack of self-esteem that leads you to flock to these places because you believe they are better than what you have at home.
Whether dullards like you acknowledge it or not, Philippinos just like most other Asians are deeply racist towards black people. They would much rather prefer to associate with people of caucasian origin (whites).
That's why if you want to succeed in those societies, your skin colour matters a lot. The lighter skinned you are, the better your chances of success are.
Those same people come to your country and treat you like second class citizens in your own country. Nigerians who work for companies owned by these people only have tales of woe to tell.
You are one of the gullible muttonheads who has accepted his inferior racial status in the world order.
I pity you.

"U re just Jealous" is d response of a person who's too lazy to think deep...why is it dat they come back to Nigeria to practise and can't get a work with their "certificate" there...its just like me graduating from John Hopkins Medical school and saying I wanna come practise in Nigeria- am I mad when other top-notch hospitals will be queuing for me....


I'm talking to you from experience about what I know you're here saying Ted talk, na Ted Talk go manage patient? Ask any local trained graduate about FMGs-Foreign Medical Graduates and they'll tell you about their incompetence....you're here simply and lazily attributing it to jealousy.....you can't see beyond your nose.

brother.. I'm sure u re underestimating the Philipines Education.. I'm also a medical student here and I can give u a first hand education about Philippines education. Let me inform u that so many students from all around the countries of the world study here. In my school alone, I have more than 150 Americans studying here, many Australians, Indians, Britain and many first world citizens. Philippines education has become an alternative to people who could not afford the tuition for an education in a first world country. Philippines medical graduates are one of the most sort after in the world today. Check out the net if u doubt me bro.. Cheers

U ve just heard a new about an exception to whatever u re used to experiencing. Sorry but u can't take away that credit from this guy. What he's achieved is the news here. I think its a bit bout hubris and arrogance to talk down a colleague's achievement and generalise whatever experience u may ve had. U re jealous cos u couldn't stand one exceptional FMG performance for once in ur life. And for ur info, Tedx can do a lot for ur patients...maybe if u work a lil bit harder to think outside the box u can understand that. Tell me who's lazy now.

There's a difference between anger dat stems from Jealousy and dat which stems from listening to a person give a shallow and unexperienced response and still think he's right thereby deluding himself immensely. As I said you obviously can't and now refuse to see beyond your nose as TV shows is a confirmation of how good a medical school or doctor is.

I'll have better luck talking to d wind or a wall trying to make you think objectively and seek answers as you're not only adamant but also too lazy to do dat....goodluck.
