I've never been to the Philippines, Hive account@bluesapphire06, but I'm intrigued by the fact that the street signs and others are all in English. Is that typical of just Manila, or does this happen throughout the country? And is that because most people speak English there, or some other reason? I know the U.S. was involved for years there, so is this leftover from that?

Sorry about the questions, but I find all this very interesting. Also, I'm guessing a Grab car is some kind of ride share, like Uber?
