When can Filipinos free themselves from the shackle of Colonial Mentality?

It is seems to me that Filipinos are deep buried with the Colonial Mentality. Look at the youngsters nowadays, imitating not only the fashion trend set by Americans and Europeans, but as well as their culture of not giving respect to their elders anymore. I am not surprised and can't help wondering where is the Filipino culture that our ancestors have fought for before during the Spanish era, all gone in vain. Isn't it? Nowadays, teens are more proud to be wearing levis jeans and T-shirts made by other foreign country instead of patronizing their own product. If we compare ourselves to Japan, we are very far behind, in science and technology. Puro kasi katatawanan ang mga pinoy, pati dito sa forum dinadala ang kalokohan nila. May nagtatanong pa tungkol sa mga body parts sa loob ng refrigirator, wala namang pinupuntahan ang mga tanong. Me, I just skipped that kind of insane questions. It will not help the Philippines to be a progressive country. But nobody is reporting that kind of questions, kasi mabiro ang mga Pinoy, Pinoy eh, mas gusto pa nating tawanan ang problema kesa harapin ito at bigyan ng solusyon. Maybe this is one reason why the Philippines can not progress kasi wala naman tayong maisip na solusyon sa problema kundi tawanan lang ang mga ito.
