Until now, I was very naive about Manny's popularity and standing in the world. I knew he was good, but I didn't know he was one of the best.
The pride that many Filipinos and Fil-Ams like me when a fella like Pacman makes it big in the world is summed up by one of the commentors on the article, btbchamp:
Most people in Philippines adore Pacman but that's about it. They are disgusted with their government that they couldn't care less. For them Pacman is representive of their struggle to make things right. And when they say "Philippines" they mean Pacman's struggle to reach their dreams without the help of their government.
