本次東南亞沙龍主題為菲律賓，很榮幸邀請到國立中山大學研究員Dr. Amador Peleo前來東南亞協會分享「菲律賓之風情與面貌」，身為菲律賓人的Amador，全程用英文介紹，並由顧長永理事長即時翻譯。

The theme of this Southeast Asia Salon is the Philippines. We are honored to invite Dr. Amador Peleo, a researcher from National Sun Yat-Sen University, to come to the Southeast Asia Association to share "the style and appearance of the Philippines". As a Filipino, Amador introduced the whole process in English, and was introduced by Chairperson Professor Ku with translation.

Amador首先用多項指標來衡量台灣與菲律賓之間的「幸福樂觀指數」，包括年收入多寡、對於決定自己人生方向的自由程度、與2005年相比是否覺得更幸福等。結果，Amador反問在場的聽眾，有人認為菲律賓人似乎比台灣人幸福！

Amador first used a numeric indicator to measure the "happiness optimism index" between Taiwan and the Philippines, including annual income, the degree of freedom to decide one's life direction, and whether they felt happier than in 2005. As a result, Amador rhetorically asked the audience; some people think Filipinos seem to be happier than Taiwanese!

接著，除比較我國與菲律賓外，Amador將亞太地區的國家也加入列表。打破了大家的刻板印象，Amador並發現東北亞國家並非比東南亞國家更感到幸福與樂觀，即便他們的年收入遠遠高於東南亞國家。

Next, in addition to comparing Taiwan with the Philippines, Amador added countries in the Asia-Pacific region to the list. Breaking everyone's stereotypes, Amador found that Northeast Asian countries are not happier and more optimistic than Southeast Asian countries, even though their annual income is much higher.

這場演講讓大家更加了解台灣的鄰居菲律賓，在場各位更加期待下一次的東南亞沙龍，而在此預告，下次的東南亞沙龍將在6月10日下午4點舉辦，主題為「泰國」，敬請期待！

This speech made everyone learned more about the Philippines, Taiwan's neighbor and everyone present is looking forward to the next Southeast Asia Salon, and announces that the next Southeast Asia Salon will be held at 4 pm on June 10, with the theme of "Thailand".
