Melissa of My Baket List guests posts today on OFWAbroad. Her entry is an open letter for her kababayans (fellow Filipinos) in Dubai, UAE.
Dear Kabayan
“Kabayan!” Yan ang madalas na tawagan ng mga Pinoy dito sa Dubai/UAE, lalo na yung di mo kakilala pero sigurado kang pinoy ang kaharap mo.
Minsan nakiki kabayan din ang ibang lahi, madalas mga Indiano. Kasi nga yun ang lagi nilang naririnig kahit di naman nila talagang alam kung ano ibig sabihin.
Minsan natawag na rin akong: “ Mare, Please look at the camera.” ng isang arabo habang kinikuhaan ng picture para sa Emirates ID. At madalas “ate pasaload” ng mga Indianong nag sa side line ng pagpa pasa ng load sa ibaba ng building namin.
Narito ang aking “open letter” para sa ating mga kabayan.
Dear Kabayan,
Naiintindihan ko na mainit talaga dito sa Dubai, nasa disyerto tayo di ba? Pero sana wag mo ring kalimutan na nasa Muslim country tayo, wag namang masyadong maigsi ang shorts mo na halos lumuwa na ang mata ng mga pakistani kapag nakikita ka. Igalang natin ang custom at batas ng bansa kung san tayo pansamantalang nakatira.
Oo, masarap makipag kwentuhan lalo na pag katapos ng trabaho, bawas stress ba. Pero kung nasa bus ka, medyo paki hinaan ang volume, hindi lang ikaw ang nakaka intindi ng tagalog. Buti na nga lang at hindi naiintindihan ng lahat ang mga maseselan mong kwento. Kulang na lang ngumiwi ako nung narinig ko kung anong sinasabi mo tungkol sa boss mo.
