countries that dominate the global overseas labor market. Its labor

"We understand the market -- what it is looking for. I'm glad
we're able to bring these television shows to the community
using the latest technology and equipment." Roland and Anna know what they are talking about.

"We do our best to deliver what we promise in keeping up with
our tradition of excellence," said Roland. Filipino television program availability has gone a long way from a handful to a wide selection provided by carriers. For example, DirecTV carries Filipino programming packages that contain a good selection of all-time Filipino powerhouse favorites such as the The Filipino Channel and GMA Pinoy TV. Filipino programming are important for Filipinos to keep in touch with their culture and heritage. Younger Filipino American generation who normally would not have much time to travel to their mother country can learn and understand what is going on in the Philippines. As far as program viewing is concerned Filipinos tend to attach to what they left behind. For example, popular Filipino noontime shows are a big hit here in the US. "Filipino TV programs are also very important to newly arrived Filipinos in the US who otherwise will be 'homesick' during their initial arrival and stay here," observed Roland. "The great thing about viewing these programs is the clarity of reception using DirecTV HD Technology which is the best in the nation," said Roland. "DirecTV is an easy solution for the digital transition --its all 100% digital signal, no equipment to buy, no start-up cost, 4 room free standard installation." "For any period or any holiday or occasion a gift subscription to DirecTV is a gift to be remembered. The value and joy of viewing, learning, and being entertained goes beyond measurement as information and experience are shared from generation to generation." "For us at the Manila Connection, the best gift is the satisfaction of having provided excellent service to our community," said Roland. "That gift will be treasured for as long as time itself."
