Philippines is most stressed, Cambodia is saddest, and Laos is the angriest in Southeast Asia, says new Gallup survey
(https://thumbs.gfycat.com/AbleMemorableFlies-max-1mb.gif)
New surveys reveal the Philippines to be the most stressed country in Southeast Asia.
Global analytics and advice firm Gallup measured the emotional states of people in more than 100 countries through extensive surveys. In one survey conducted from 2021 to early 2022, the global analytic firm recorded “yes,” “no” and “don’t know or refused to answer” responses from respondents aged 15 and older.
In the recent survey, respondents were asked about their emotions, including stress level, anger and sadness, the day before the survey was conducted.
Of the Filipino respondents, 48% said they experienced stress, the highest percentage among Southeast Asian nations. Thailand follows with 44% and Cambodia with 40% of respondents who also answered “yes."
In the category of anger, Laos takes the No. 1 spot with 29% of respondents saying they had felt angry prior to the survey. The Philippines ranks second with 27%. Indonesia, Cambodia, Thailand and Myanmar followed at 20%.
Gallup also found Cambodia to be the saddest country in Southeast Asia, with 42% of respondents saying they experienced sadness. The Philippines also ranks second in this category with 35% of respondents answering “yes,” while Vietnam comes in third with 27%.
Singapore is noted to be the least angry and the least sad country in the region.

It isn't fair that these pollsters only talked to Hmong men in Laos... They're angry because Hmong American oldies are shopping again over there.

Depending on what age range they have surveyed. If these were done on teenagers and younger men/women than I will agree.

PH is not a country.
Yes it is just like how FR is for France, and US is for United States...etc, hope you learn something after editing my post where you shouldn't have in the first place.

Nope. Ain't gonna change it. You and Rock play with the PH letters all the times. We know you are playing here with our forum, especially when you don't use the
definite article in front of it.

Don't care if you change it or not. You don't even know that PH stands for the Philippines... Do you really think there's only one PH?

I bet if I use "LA" for Laos, you'll be saying "LA is not Laos"...because you don't know.
Sometimes for countries with longer names, using the abbreviation or something shorter that also stands for the same thing is more efficient like I've used "Viet" for Vietnamese...a s long as it's not derogatory.

If I was still a young buck lol

Laos isn't abbreviated as LA at all. I'm sure the world agrees with me on this.

If "LA" is not an abbreviation for Laos then these guys are wrong:

It's OK Reporter, all good here...

Nah, that Laotian guy is pretty chill from what I've seen thus far... ;D

That's for coding purposes only, not abbreviation.

Doesn't matter if it's used for country code or not, it's still an abbreviation for Laos...If you want to be stubborn and go against facts, then prove the folks that came up with these abbreviations wrong:

I bet you don't believe that "US" is also an abbreviation for the United States either:

US serves both as a code and an abbreviation. The really formal usage is U.S.A. or U.S. but common widespread usage has augmented US to that. The coding coincides with this abbreviation for the United States. There is no doubt that some times what's an abbreviation can also be a code.
But the Lao Embassy in DC says abbreviation for their country is LPDR. Just FYI.
-
Abbreviation is all I'm saying because there's no denying that "LA" is an abbreviation for Laos as well as "US" is an abbreviation for the United States...
Sure there may be a little variance and other abbreviations here and there but there's no denying that the abbreviations that were created for countries a long time ago are abbreviations for those countries.
Abbreviations can also be apply for states and cities too so I'll use "CA" for California or use "SF" for San Francisco or "NYC" for New York City at times instead.

You've pointed out that only the ISO system uses LA for its coding system, the UN system is LAO and the Lao government's website's abbreviation is Laopdr. In short, it is LPDR as its Embassy states.
Ask anyone in California if they know what you are referring to if you mention LA. Of course, Los Angeles comes to everyone's mind there.

Doesn't matter who uses it, "LA" is an abbreviation for Laos and has been for decades, no denying that fact:

And yes, "LA" is also an abbreviation for "Los Angeles" as well as the state of Louisiana among other things.
Just like how I mentioned that "PH" is not just an abbreviation for PebHmong but also for other things like the Philippines for example as well as Potential of Hydrogen among other things...
Just can't deny those facts!
