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?"

Yeah, there's a 'mahal' word in Indonesian, but this one's in Filipino.^^ Which can mean either 'love' (noun) or 'expensive' (adjective)

wah! well then, how come the word love and expensive be in the same mamahal word?

We Filipinos use the word 'mahal' either as a noun or as an adjective, hence, it can mean 'love' or it can mean 'expensive', depending on how we put it in a sentence. XD
And 'mahal' is also the base word, 'mamahal' is sort of a magnified adjective because of an affix, so in that case, it roughly means 'overpriced or too expensive'.

hoooo!! I see!
uh huh, I think the same thing goes with Indonesian words
which use a prefix and suffix to explain "over"
so it becomes "kemahalan"
oh well, thanks for the quick filipino lesson
