Well here’s one video that you’ve most likely looked up over at YouTube.

It’s a dance video of the famous “Dancing Inmates” from Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center (CPDRC), a maximum security prison in the Visayas Region of the Philippines. The video description says the inmates were treated to a visit by Michael Jackson’s long-time choreographer Travis Payne together with dancers Daniel Celebre and Dres Reid. Together with the inmates they came up with this dance video which I saw in our local news today.

I can well remember the very first time they made it in the news and was widely recognized worldwide for their great craft of dancing in unison. Oh man that sense of pride I felt at that time sure was indescribable to me up to now. It clearly manifests that only if we as a country will unite, nothing is impossible.

These antics makes me really proud of being a Filipino. Forget the crappy political system we have here, right now I just want to ponder on the positive things of being a Filipino and that’s somehow within each and everyone of us – with a great degree of discipline, we can make things like these happen and make ourselves known to the international community.

The video was uploaded about four days ago and currently has 881,157 views and counting.

If you haven’t watched it yet, here’s the video. Enjoy!

**I usually embed videos in my blog for the main reason that I don’t want to keep looking them up on YouTube, I could simply log into my website and watch it from here.
