Yan si Koya. Koya Obama who bowed way too low to shake hands sa lolo nyo, si Japanese Emperor Akihito habang siguro tuliro ang Empress Michiko kung anong klaseng ipis ang nasa sahig. Ano ba koya?!
Nag-init ang butse nang mga critics dito sa America, ayan sila sa CNN, nag-nga-nga-ngawa, when they saw Obama in this position na dapat daw ang US leader should stand tall when representing America overseas.
“I don’t know why President Obama thought that was appropriate. Maybe he thought it would play well in Japan. But it’s not appropriate for an American president to bow to a foreign one,” said conservative pundit William Kristol speaking on the Fox News Sunday program, adding that the gesture bespoke a United States that has become weak and overly-deferential under Obama.
Mas lalong matindi at mataray ang birada ni Bill Bennett of CNN. Sabi nya: “It’s ugly. I don’t want to see it.” Charing! Bago pinanood nya pa rin!
“We don’t defer to emperors. We don’t defer to kings or emperors. The president of the United States — this coupled with so many apologies from the United States — is just another thing,” said Bennett.
Ewan ko ba. Sana nag-high five na lang sila tutal tanders na ang Emperor. O kaya, “Yo! Dude! Wazzup!”
I’ve been to a number of places already na iba-iba ang culture. Ang pinaka-gusto ko, mga Moldovans. Ang greet is a kiss hehehe! Sa lips! Swak! Ang gwapo nung kebigan kong tiga Central European University sa Budapest hehehe! Sa kanya greetings. Saken, first kiss.
Pero eto, what I found out na safest, especially pag di mo alam ang culture is a simple bow na ginagawa nang mga Pinoy o kaya, handshake lang! Kasi if you overdo, nabubuko! Ano ba koya!

hehehe… nainis din actually ako ng makita ko yang picture na yan. Masyado naman kasi ang kanyang pagkakayuko. Kahit mga dyapon di ganyan kababa magbow. Wa kaya nagturo kay lolo mo ng tamang pagyuko? Complete and total obeisance na siya kay lolo akihito.

Napasobra nga. Kahit sa Japanese e medyo offensive na yan. The bow is part of their etiquette. Bowing way too much is offensive na sa kanila. Dapat yung katamtaman lang.
