Just came back from a seminar on labels and self-adhesives. The speaker, a soft-spoken Thai rightfully observed that although it was his first time in the Philippines, he felt as if he were in Thailand: apparently, Thais and Filipinos look alike.
Anyway, most of us who attended the seminar had trouble understanding his accented English, and quite a few immediately went into a coma.
At the end of session, nobody had any question.
And so I raised my hand.
The organizers gave me giveaways, sort of like a prize for paying attention to the lecture. Because of the incentive, the speaker suddenly found himself inundated with inquiries.
