In Observation of One Million Visits to The Reading Life from Residents of the Philippines 🇵🇭









The Philippines 🇵🇭 On The Reading Life - Literature and History




When I began The Reading Life on July 7, 2009 I would never have believed then that one day I will be the welcoming more than one million visitors from the Philippines to my blog.  At that time I would have thought it amazing if I just kept blogging until January 1, 2010, given my track record in life.  

Most of the visits are focused on a few posts on older stories by authors from the Philippines.  These stories are a great way for readers to keep their cultural memories of a way of life now largely forgotten awake in a society dominated by social media and huge malls.  These stories are  a great treasure for students of post-colonial Asian Literature.  

This means a lot to me.  

Sa Lahat Ng Aking Mambabsasa sa Pilipinas, Maraming Salamat
