  • 0:00 - 0:02
    Hello, my name is Dhrub.
  • 0:02 - 0:05
    and I am now here at Bacolod City
  • 0:05 - 0:07
    speaking with you in Hiligaynon Language.
  • 0:08 - 0:10
    Hiligaynon is one of Tagalog dialects.
  • 0:10 - 0:13
    Tagalog is the Philippines' main language.
  • 0:13 - 0:17
    And I want to introduce to you myself,
  • 0:17 - 0:22
    I was born here in Bacolod City and lived
    until I was 9 years old with my family.
  • 0:22 - 0:27
    After that , I was sent to India to study.
  • 0:27 - 0:30
    We are actually Indian Immigrants
  • 0:30 - 0:32
    here in the Philippines.
  • 0:32 - 0:36
    Then, I studied in India from
    9 to 18 years old
  • 0:36 - 0:38
    I just graduated high school,
  • 0:38 - 0:40
    and now I'll go to US to study college
  • 0:40 - 0:43
    at Cambridge, at Harvard University.
  • 0:43 - 0:45
    there --
  • 0:45 - 0:48
    Right now my problem is because of COVID
  • 0:48 - 0:50
    there are a lot of uncertainties
  • 0:50 - 0:52
    that perhaps I wont be able to get my visa
  • 0:52 - 0:55
    that I wont be able to go there and I
    paid so much
  • 0:55 - 0:57
    for me to go and study there
  • 0:57 - 0:59
    and then Immigration officers said
  • 0:59 - 1:02
    they cannot open the Embassy yet
  • 1:02 - 1:03
    this and that
  • 1:03 - 1:06
    There are a lot of problems right now.
  • 1:06 - 1:08
    But this time is also a good time
  • 1:08 - 1:10
    that I am spending it with my family.
  • 1:10 - 1:11
    Its been so long
  • 1:11 - 1:12
    I have not spend time with them.
  • 1:12 - 1:15
    Its a good feeling that I am with them
  • 1:15 - 1:17
    and I can learn values from them
  • 1:17 - 1:20
    because I was young when I left from here
  • 1:21 - 1:22
    and Yeah
  • 1:22 - 1:24
    What I am excited about now
  • 1:24 - 1:26
    is going to College
  • 1:26 - 1:29
    then slowly waiting
  • 1:29 - 1:33
    and yeah, Thank you so much. Mabuhay!
