When you'd come to the Philippines, people will greet you MABUHAY. It's our way of welcoming you. It means LONG LIVE. A familiar saying is ISANG KAHIG, ISANG TUKA. If translated literally, it means ONE SCUFF, ONE PICK. It refers to a chicken scuffing the earth to find a worm (its pick). Connotatively, it refers to the poor who finds something to do in a day to buy a meal. It reflects the poverty that has wrapped most of our countrymen.
