@buzzfeedoz: liza soberano you will ALWAYS be famous ⭐️ "utang na loob" is a social construct that exists in filipino culture, usually between parent/s and child, that refers to lifelong internal debt. it's a strong sense of obligation to return a favour and can often be used to hold the person receiving the favour emotionally, spiritually and mentally hostage. the world of "forgotten island" explores filipino culture with a story of two best friends lost in the magical world of nakali. watch it in cinemas from sept 17!! @DreamWorks Animation @Liza Soberano #forgottenisland #filipino #lizasoberano #family #buzzfeedoz
utang na loob is one of the reason why those crocodiles the government still exist and the family dynasty...

utang na loob is basically keeping tabs w someone, there’s nothing kind abt that. it’s just transactional.

dont know why you said that. maybe bec d k gnun kafamiliar dhil d k nmn pure pinoy or dahil b wala ka kc nun. Utang n loob is a feeling of being forever grateful as the "recipient" of the grace. d mo kailangan palitan ung bnigay syo. to acknowledge what is given is more than enough. having utang n loob means humility and gratefulness in ur heart. so beautiful pra maisip mo na dapat i-unlearn un. and issue mo is ung nagbigay na naghahanap ng kapalit. iba un. it is just fake kindness period. ung ang dapat iunlearn.

Utang na Loob should be self-imposed.... but when others who helped you once, expect it from you... that's the problem

Hmm I don't think so. Base lang siguro sya sa exp nya. Pero let's just say tinulungan mo yung ato sa panahong walang wala sya tapos yung ikaw na may kailangan pero di ka nya tinulungan kahit alam mong may kaya syang tulungan ka. So there's nothing wrong with utang na loob, dapat mo naman talaga suklian ng kabutihan and I don't think na it's only in the Philippines, haleer character yan ng tao so it's all over the world.
" Utang na loob " in English Gratitude.

Love this!!!! Yes be grateful and return what owe that person but it shouldn’t be something to hold over someone’s head for the rest of their life.

if you help someone and you expect them to give back like they owe you, then that's not help, that'a a transaction!

Utang na Loob is a good practice in theory. It incentivises empathy and caring for the community. The problem is that it's mostly lost all it's value; having been recontextualized and weaponized by abusive elders.
