Description
My neighbor asked me to help him scribble some comicstrips for his school thingie... The theme is "Effects of over-population"...Even if i don't really know him... (He looks familiar tho... Maybe an old schoolmate or something...) It's just hard to say no to the request since the friend of his mom always gives us a hand when we need help-- ANYWHO HOOoow...
At least i helped! Right? Riiight?
-dumb-
English:
1st:
Panel1: "Haaaa... Class is finally over! I better eat"
Panel2: "The line's long!"
Panel4: "Sorry, we're out sir"
3rd:
Panel1: "We've ran out of rice again..."
Panel3: "Why are they all expensive?!"
Panel4: "We're short of local rice. All we got are imported..."
4th:
Panel4: "You okay?" "I'm okay mom..."
5th:
Panel1: "I'm finally a graduate, YES!"
Panel2: "All I need now is a job..."
Panel3: "... A job..."
Panel4: "... A-a j-job..."
6th:
Panel1: "Everytime I buy food, it's always 'imported'... What's with that?"
Panel2: "That's because of our population! Since there are so many people here and we don't have enough supplies, we import from outside instead!"
Panel3: "If we're that many here, why won't we reduce then?" "..."
Panel4: "Family planning is hard here..." "Really?"

This is pretty awesome. I had no idea you spoke Tagalog.

LOL. Brilliant.
Actually, the solution to overpopulation is cannibalism. See, if we attack our politicians and their associates, kill them, roast them, and serve them to our poor and middle-class, we feed the hungry, get rid of undesirables, and decrease the population, thereby making the Philippines a better, happier place.
Good job helping your neighbor with his project.

Very well spoken comic strip! An everyday experience a student would have. To be honest, I'm a Filipino with not much knowledge of speaking Tagalog but this is the first thing I managed to read with complete understanding. It's like a miracle for me!

I can relate to the 5th strip, our previous senior and junior students were close to the biggest the district has ever had, and all the current seniors are part of the biggest freshman group the district has ever had, so now there are very few jobs going around in the area.

i was surprised that I understood most of it before reading the translations. I guess my tagalog isn't as bad as I thought.
My mum tells me the philippines is very crowded, and this strip makes me more aware of problems back in the philippines.

family planning is indeed hard here.
