Burgers, Pizzas, Fried Chickens, and Kit-Kat.
Oh, how yummy is that?
Zara, Sephora, H&M, and Forever 21.
Shopping! Isn’t fun?
Japan has McDonald’s Ebi Filet-O.
Australia has Kit-Kat Chunky Cookie Dough.
India has Vegetarian Thali and Chana Snacker.
Wow, foods really make us drool all over!
All of these sums up into one word,
it’s glocalization around the world.
Globalization plus localization is equals to glocalization.
It is just like mathematics’ addition.
Glocalization won’t always be a good thing.
Our country is slowly changing.
It is something we don’t realize,
but let’s not act like we’re surprised.
Philippine weddings, fiestas, and birthdays,
Coca-Cola is there for these special days.
Lambanog, Sago’t Gulaman and Samalamig,
Are these still served on the table anyway?
Tons of money are spent in foreign brands.
But how about the local brands?
Foreign products are not always bad.
Still, we must remember the local we always had.
Philippines has a lot to offer.
Let us not neglect what our country has.
Remember the locals.
Support local.
