>
> A 70 year old 'lolo' from the province was accompanied by a grandson to

> The lolo spoke not a word of English so the grandson translated for him.
> The consul told the young man to ask his
> grandfather why he wanted to go to the States.
>
> "Bakit daw ho ninyo gustong pumunta sa Amerika?" the grandson translated.
>
> "Sabihim mo gusto kong makita yung mga anak ko doon." "He said he wants
to

> that's what the lolo's application indicated.
>
> The consul had another question. "Ask him why does he have to go there?
> Why
