Mi filipinas ay! Yo te amo Filipinas. Mi novia encantada y la prinsesa del oriente. Antes, Manila era muy bonita las casas eran grandes y bonitas. Las iglesias eran bonitas tambien como ahora....Desde la provincia de Aklan Filipinas..
Muchisima gracias por esta cancion. Que bonita es. Creo que Espanol debe ensenar en las escuelas filipinas porque es un parte tan importante de la historia y la cultura filipina tiene mucha influencia de espanol tambien.
ive watched this video...... and i cant stop my eyes to cry....i remember my childhood years.... with grandparents.....our long losts tradition..........hope it will never be forgotten now...
Maravillosa, encantadora, siempre en nuestro corazón, las lagrimas asoman cuando se escucha, los sentimientos afloran, y un nudo en la garganta impide seguir la canción.
The abandoned encomiendas in the Philippines were consolidated and cared for by the Catholic missionary Orders. The Spanish gentry in the Philippines congregated within the confines of Manila leaving the countryside to be worked by the missionaries. The problem of implementing the royal decree of teaching Spanish could not be accomplished due to the fewness of Spanish gentry and religious. The easier way took place, the Spanish learned the native languages so education was accomplished thusly.
Encomiendas were under the oversight of Spanish crown representatives and Catholic missionaries. One can imagine how the administration of abandoned encomiendas became a headache to those concerned. The care of both the missions and the settlers fell into the hands of representatives of the Spanish Crown and the Catholic Church. The materially gifted encomiendas were not lacking in secular personnel to carry out day-to-day operations. The spiritual care was left to the religious personnel.
Simply put, the encomienda was a royal trust obtained from the king of Spain. With this authority, an encomendero could explore and settle the area and resources granted and covered by the royal trust. This was the system used in all Spanish colonies. The productive encomiendas brought the riches to the royal coffers. The non-productive ones were abandoned. The mineral riches of the Philippine encomiendas yielded "nothing," hence abandoned. These settlements were left to the more hardy souls.
Similarly Catholicism was similarly decreed to be practiced. Today the majority of the 1.1 billion Catholics of the world can be found in Mexico, Central, South and North America, and the Philippines. Yet, one little fact stands out, Spanish is not as widely used in the Philippines, unlike Latin America. Why is this so? To my mind, the short answer is gold. The Spanish conquistadors found gold in many places but found close to nothing in the Philippines. The details lay in the encomienda system.
many thanks to xpressivist for uploading this beautiful song by a very accomplished trio about your country and mine, the Philippines. this is also a very good opportunity to learn and talk about the Filipino, Spanish, and Hispanic heritage of the Philippines. The main components of the Spanish culture is the language and the Catholic religion. King Philip II of Spain decreed that ALL Spanish colonies must speak Spanish, this included the Philippines, Central and South American colonies.
@edsnantonio Actually, I want to point out several things, they probably did find close to nothing in several locations of the philippines, but they also looted and picked clean the old kingdoms in luzon of their wealth, and they had very much hence the fact they were very important in the trade across Asia. I also wouldn't go about labeling catholicism a hispanic heritage, we may have acquired it mostly from them but the religion itself is not directly hispanic, we also learned from portuguese
@ThtOnePinoy i have not come across readings about French-Filipino connection nor the Portuguese-Filipino connection. i would love to read about these connections that you apparently have. i am aware that Magellan was Portuguese. I am also aware that the French, Portuguese, Germans, Spanish and Italians were Catholics. The English, the Dutch were Catholics before their breakaway from the Catholic Church. The historic record does not show French or Portuguese involvement in the Philippines.
@edsnantonio French involvement was very small from what I have heard, but portuguese findings were much more bigger, however it was limited due to the rivalry the spanish apparently had with them, thus the reasons also why, magellan being a portuguese, was watched by spaniards so as to not give his own country an advancement over the spaniards. The portuguese even has records of the famed kingdom of Luzon or "Luções" as the portuguese explorers named them.
@ThtOnePinoy the Treaty of Tordesillas took care as to where the Portuguese and Spanish could go. As to the kingdoms of Luzon that were picked cleaned, gold is gold and if there were sizeable quantities the Spanish would have found them (e.g. the gold of Paracale in Bicol). The Portuguese and the Dutch had the navigation charts for the coasts of Africa, the Indian Ocean, the Malay archipelago up to the Spice islands, Ternate and Tidore. Magellan offered Spain the western route from Seville.
@edsnantonio gold is gold, but there were much more other things than gold that were very valuable, especially the written history, unfortunately, there is a big gap in our written history, and there are much blame that spanish friars burned much of it, seems to be the only plausible explanation, history does not dissapear just like that.
@ThtOnePinoy as children of our history, we take what we can take. The Spanish were not amiss in recording their movements in the Philippines. The Philippine natives were different, their history was mostly oral, good only as far as the reaches of the barangay settlements. that's all they needed. remember the forest cover of the Philippine archipelago was 98%, i.e. impenetrable. our histories were local for the most part hence we still preserve our regional languages.
@edsnantonio Correction, it was believed to be mostly oral until the findings of the Laguna copperlate. We had written history, the natives were indeed different, the ones who had empires and kingdoms were much more prosperous/successful and wealthier than this generation...
@ThtOnePinoy for me the jury is still out on the provenance of the Laguna copperplate. If there is one, there should be more. Also the Spanish already knew of Baybayin. Who came first the Spanish use of Baybayin or the author/originator of the copper plate? (i will review my notes on this one and share what got)
@ThtOnePinoy The Laguna Copper Inscription is claimed to go back even earlier than 900 AD. If true, it points to a writing system available to dominant Malay language systems. Magellan owned a Malay servant; Legazpi had the services of a Malay servant; the Spanish translated the Catechism of St Belamine into Tagalog Baybayin in 1593, the Ilocano translation, in 1620. There are no other written documents except for personal notes written in different media, eg leaves, bamboo, other woods, etc.
@edsnantonio I know there are others but I just cannot jot them down right now, the one I really can know from memory is the Laguna copperlate because I focus on it much in this topic. Regardless, if there was the Laguna Copperlate, there would be others, infact if you read the english translation of it, you would know it sounds like it links to many more documents that either have been found, or not have been found yet, or possibly have been destroyed.
@ThtOnePinoy Always, we stick with hard, well-documented historical data. For now, the period 900 AD thru 1593 AD (600+ years) is a long period to propose that a well-developed Philippine language system or civilization existed with no facts to back it up.
@edsnantonio If it is evidence of a sophisticated civilization you were looking for, rest assured there are many evidence of that, for example, there are many pottery written in the Kulitan script, which is the writing system of the Kapampangans, which was used to sign many information on the pottery, and these all were found to have been traded in the Japanese market, from where? The Kingdom of Tondo, it is undeniable that the Kapampangans are actually the descendants of that Kingdom.
@ThtOnePinoy I am pretty much aware of the documents you mentioned. I have learned about them when I was still in college. WTF?! I am the one who's a purist now? You sound like a lawyer who twists statements here. I am not the one who claimed that "our true culture is not what it is today". You did. WTF?! I think its a waste of my time talking to a pretentious twat like you on you tube.
@ThtOnePinoy Please don't tell me to do this or that. I pretty much know what I'm talking about. You don't. I'm not the one who needs to do them. Its you. I am not telling anyone here not to trade well with our neighbors. You jump from one irrelevant conclusion to another. Our topic here is the Spanish culture in the Philippines. You claim that its not part of our culture. I & others here say that it is for obvious reasons. You are obviously the one who needs to do more research here & not us.
@xpressivist If I said anything else well I'm sorry, but I do not take kindly to colonial mentality, it's worse than crab mentality. Here, to put it easier for the both of us, do you recognize pre-spanish culture? AND do you think hispanic culture is dominant over the other cultures filipino share, including our own culture?
@ThtOnePinoy Nobody is trying to put the Spanish culture over and above the Filipino culture here, mister wiseguy! Like I said before, the Filipino culture is a hodgepodge of Chinese, Malay, Arab, Hindu, Spanish, American, and other cultures. The song here does not even suggest that the Spanish culture is a dominant one. But our culture is surely partly Hispanic. This is not controversial even among Latin Americans. I don't understand why you keep on attacking a straw man here.
@xpressivist Then it is a misunderstanding between both sides, sorry but I despise colonial mentality with the utmost hatred, and feel that it would be an honor to have it annihilated. However, I don't have a problem with per-say, chabacano and fiestas and such, however I do have a problem with the schools and perhaps the media in P.I. right now having a very eurocentric outlook, even you have to have at least given notice of that.
@ThtOnePinoy Please don't tell me to do this or that. I pretty much know what I'm talking about. You don't. I'm not the one who needs to do them. Its you. I am not telling anyone here not to trade well with our neighbors. You jump from one irrelevant conclusion to another. Our topic here is the Spanish culture in the Philippines. You claim that its not part of our culture. I & others here say that it is for obvious reasons. You are obviously the one who needs to do more research here & not us.
@ThtOnePinoy There are so many Spanish documents in the national library that need to be read & understood by Filipinos. Our heroes wrote mostly in Spanish and the first Philippine constitution was written in Spanish. We also need to learn Spanish in order to trade well with Latin America and Spain. These are only a few of the reasons why we need to re-learn Spanish. Talks about "OUR TRUE CULTURE" makes my skin crawl. Its like "GOD" to me. I don't think there is such a thing. Its an Illusion.
@xpressivist regardless, there were many documents written by our national heroes in tagalog as well, probably more, you do not have proof of whichever one they mostly wrote in. What NEEDS to be done is to strengthen our original culture, show our pre-spanish culture, and even then, our original writing system is even showing it's reivival in the new currency bills in the philippines. Way more are interested in their original cultrue than the minority of their culture.
@ThtOnePinoy I am pretty much aware of the documents you mentioned. I have learned about them when I was still in college. WTF?! I am the one who's a purist now? You sound like a lawyer who twists statements here. I am not the one who claimed that "our true culture is not what it is today". You did. WTF?! I think its a waste of my time talking to a pretentious twat like you on you tube.
@xpressivist Our culture right now is a shadow of it's former self, yes. However, I never said a mix of latin is bad, I only said trying to overshadow the original culture with hispanic culture isn't right, we should promote our original culture before our hispanic parts. You seem to be misunderstanding what I say, and it's clear for the fact you try to dismiss our pre-spanish culture. Oh and stop deleting my comments, if you're wrong at least have the balls to say it.
@ThtOnePinoy The Spanish culture is part of the Filipino culture in (more or less) the same way that it is part of Latin American culture. Nobody worships another culture here. Its just a fact that the Filipino culture is partly Latin. You can do nothing about that. Its simply a historical fact. I don't see anything wrong with that. In fact, we need to strengthen that culture by re-learning the Spanish language.
@xpressivist I don't see anything wrong with parts of latin influence either, almost all races have it, latin itself was influenced by many other things, so itself is a mix. However, I don't see the point in making spanish an official language, nor spreading it. Spanish should be taught as another language in schools, but making it a requirement is just impractical, not even here in america is spanish itself ever a requirement, only if the school ever only has spanish due to the economy
@ThtOnePinoy SPANISH CULTURE IS PART OF THE PHILIPPINES! ..I MY SELF IS PART SPANISH! so u cant just tell me to forget about this colonial stuff.....dork!
@vanLzjk Think about it like this, the vietnamese got colonized by french, but I DONT SEE THEM SAYING THEIR PART FRENCH, OR WORSHIPPING FRENCH CULTURE.
Just proves we're worshipping a culture that is not ours, you know the saying crab mentality? Well there's another mentality you have, it's colonial mentality, if you want to worship another culture do it somewhere else, I have no problem with that, HOWEVER don't associate it OR mix it with MY culture idiot. It's a FUCKING DISGRACE
@ThtOnePinoy I perceive cultural purism in your comments. There's no "culture" in this world that is pristine. The Filipino culture is a hodgepodge of many influences: Chinese, Indian, Hindu, Spanish, & American. In regard Vietnam, I think there's a false analogy there. Vietnam was colonized by the French for only 67 years (1887-1954). The Philippines was colonized by Spain for more than 300 years! You can still see the influence of Spain in religion and language in the Philippines.
@xpressivist no i am not a culture purist, but we have our own culture, why should we be fully hispanic when it's not even us? Plus it was a culture that was shoved down our throats. Regardless, I don't see a reason to make spanish an official language, nor is there any reason to start claiming we are hispanic, we are a wide variety of things we are, but why should we start throwing around hispanic supremacy? Thats overshadowing the original culture... Saying we dont have one is an excuse
@xpressivist and it''s called roman catholicism for a reason, it wasn't called spanish catholicism, and we didn't even need them for it, we had the portuguese already!
@xpressivist point being, yes it's an influence, but why make it look like it's the major influence? We have much more other cultures than spanish, but regardless, from what a lot of people here are complaining about, I guess fellow pinoys are actually starting to find their pre-hispanic culture. Good for them, perhaps one day they will realize just how much we have lost.
@xpressivist think of it this way, due to the heavy mixes, not alot of us want either one to start having supremacy over the other, but it just so happens a lot of "us" are the oriental types, or arabic types, and it just so happens we feel it is important to endorse our pre-spanish culture more. Now we don't have a problem with latin culture, but no way in hell are we going to start claiming our language is spanish, and that im a latino. Oh, and our original culture isn't indigenous
@ThtOnePinoy LOL...U are one funny kid who dont know nothing! ... Filipino culture is mine too...since i was born there..HOWEVER i am part Spanish! apparently we have kept our mix culture in our family SO U CANT FUCKING DO ANYTHING ABOUT THAT DOUCHE!!!!....-- i am a proud Filipino....BUT PEOPLE LIKE YOU WHO IS A TAMBAY is the reason why Philippines is not moving forward..DUDE THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX! THINK ABOUT THOSE PLACES AROUND U AND NOT JUST FOCUS ON YOUR BELIEFS! .....get it? good!!! --
YOU GUYES MAKE ME SICK, stop fucking worshipping a culture that is not yours. So the vietnamese got colonzed by the french, but their not saying ther french are they? You guyes should look up things like the Laguna copperlate, Luzon empire, Baybayin, a few pre-hispanic culture that will tell you we were a very epic people back then... The dirty spanish imperialists's preists burned up all our records and books, that is why you dont see very many today...
wow i love this! thank you so much for uploading it!
i agreed with the others on How the Hispanic Culture in Philippines is now fading away =( thats just really sad! ihope More Filipinos will appreciate our HISPANIC HERITAGE! coz really...Philippines is ASIAN geographically..but our culture is more like influence by the Spaniards! - This song made me proud about my country, good thing i have spanish class and i can understand what they are saying..VIVA HISPANIC FILIPINAS!
@vanLzjk How about appreciating our TRUE culture? Look up your heritage dude, it just a clear evidence that hispanic culture was shoved down our throats more than it was influenced, the fading of the foriegn culture just shows you the rebirthing of your true heritage, not the hispanic shit that you were brainwashed to believe was your true culture. Ask me any questions you want to, what is a real shame is the significant brianwash on here, and the lack of appreciation of your heritage....
@vanLzjk And so does millions of other filipino's out there, however I bet you're just blindly putting that out, it's been recorded by researchers that only 3% are actual spanish blood.
If you have family in let's say, zamboanga, then I will believe you. But I am not going to believe you if you just say "oh im from zamboanga", gotta start with a family tree. Regardless, don't associate spansih culture wiht filipino culture, regardless if your a mix... it's like mixing chinese with french
This is such a beautiful and inspirational song and I just can't believe that some people that have no culture and etiquette would take such a beatiful composition and trash it and post things with such vulgarities, it is a real shame.
@takemeillfollow06 Hello dude, it's "mabuhay" not "viva"... And quit throwing vulgarities to your neighbors, see this is what spain did to us is that they made us forget WHO our true friends are, and it isn't spain, spain used our ancestors, and you are just a slave to them, even now by the way your acting...
Hola amigo, muchas gracias por esta linda pieza presentado por uno de mis trios favoritos y a lo mejor es el trio romantico mas renombrado hasta el dia de hoy en todo el mundo. Yo naci en las Filipinas y creci en los EU, pero estudie y vivi en Mexico querido en Montemorelos, un pueblo ubicado pocos minutos de la famosisima y bella ciudad de Monterrey, Nuevo Leon. Me gusta la cultura hispana ke es parte de mi vida, aunque hay muchos asiaticos ke nos burlan del asunto. Ke Dios te bendiga!
better to know what is the meaning of the song...if any body can translate this song pls.!!i wish i can go back time to see what is the philippines back then...is it clean every where and not so crowded and quite???im filipino who love history of my country...pls post more of this vid..makes me proud to be pinoy!!!salamat!
Wow.. I'm just searching some Los Panchos songs and I found this!! Thanks for uploading this!!! I'm so proud to be 16 and I'm damn proud to be a Filipino!!!
Qué buena canción! nunca pensé que los Panchos fueran a componer una canción para las Filipinas =) Gracias por subir este video! Yo soy Mexicano pero estoy enamorado de su país, tenemos demasiadas cosas en común y me gusta mucho darme cuenta que a pesar de lo lejos que nos encontramos, existan tantas similitudes :D
Wow I love this song. I love the fact that it's been posted. I am so encouraged to learn spanish again and take back my Filipinohispanic heritage in honor of the hispanohablantes, revolutionary and spanish loyalists alike, who were murdered after la Madre Patria was kicked out of Las Filipinas in 1898...."The great disaster for España....and Filipinas." Great video montage.
@superfilipino Yeah I'm noticing that too. This video was working a few weeks ago. I even posted it on facebook and it was fine then. Now I check and it's doing the same thing, it's cutting out. Too bad such a nice vid and song. Hopefully it could get reposted.
Filipinos have as much Spanish influence as any other latin american country. Being originally from Mexico, I am proud of my Spanish heritage and I am proud to say that we consider Filipinos part of our Hispanic family.
@gameroboSH I'm really glad to hear a "level headed Mexican" say that. I've reading comments in uTube from "ignorant Mexicans" (which obviously not all Mexicans are) say that Filipino dances are a "rip-off" of Spanish dances or that Filipinos are nothing more than Latino wannabes as if only Mexicans have the right to claim Hispanic heritage **sigh**, tragic really. It's sad that "some" Mexicans would create this animosity to what is obviously sister cultures.
muchas gracias por trio los panchos a compuesto en este cancion,titulo " filipinas" me gusta la cancion, y realmente me aprecio este cancion, estoy orgulloso para ser filipino.este cancion es dedicado a mi patira nombre Filipinas..soy filipino, hablo el espnaol muy pocco..
I just recently started learning spanish again. The government should bring spanish as part of our college curriculum. Spanish is a widely spoken language specially in the Amrericas. I was on the last batch in college that Spanish but all I learned was conjugation.
It's a shame that most Filipinos of today's generation have all forgotten about our Hispanic heritage while former hispanic colonies in North and South America take pride in it.
Ok. I bought it in Anaheim, CA, four years ago ("Siete Notas de Amor"), and ever since my Filipino friends have been asking me for the tracks, it's in high demand for those Filipinos who treasure their Hispanic heritage. I have used some of those tracks in promotionals when I was producing Filipino groups and delegations into Latin-sic American events of Los Angeles. Brings fond memories... Thanks, I thought you'd got it from one of my friends.
amazing i dont know that the trio los panchos have arecord of filipinas song. thanks for sharing this beautiful and very touching song thanks xpressivist
by any chance do you have a copy of manila, manila, manila? i would love to hear that again, but its hard to find trios los panchos in this very modern Filipinas. Nakakainis. All the shops sell choppy modern pinoy pop hits, which i severely dislike.
Yup, underwood. I'll make another video with the song Manila, Manila, Manila soon. If you're looking for a Trio Los Panchos CD, I suggest you check out the record store at SM North EDSA. I saw one good CD by the Trio (with Eydie Gorme) the last time I checked there. Thanks for the comments.
alas... nasa iloilo ako... but I'll try to hunt for the cd next time I'm in Manila. I do think that that CD is the one I'm looking for. I need more Filipiniana related things to my burgeoning collection.
try it in divisoria mall.2nd floor ata sa me hagdan sila kasi pinapasalubong ko sa father ko before when i was in the phil.dun ako bumibili.mga old songs.that was 5yrs ago.
I hope we reorient ourselves of how rich Filipino culture really is, so that, when we go to other countries... we won't be left ignorant that kutsara, tinidor and other Tagalog words came from Spanish. Americans could laugh at us because even they are educated in Spanish, since America used to be a Spanish discovery.

During the war, it was Espanol that was used by the illustrados to communicate and unite the country, since we had many dialects and they would not have understood each other if it were not in Spanish. (Tagalog was not National Language then.)

Remember they are LANGUAGES not dialects. Look up the definition of a language and dialect. The Tagalog government referes to other Filipino languages as "dialects" because they want to get it in our heads that non-Tagalog languages are inferior. In Mexico you have the right to be taught/get information in over 60 indigenous languages. But in the Philippines Cebuano, Ilocano, Kampampangan etc. are not officially recognized and it is illegal to sing the national anthem in any of these languages.
Our Independence Day is near and I would like to share with you this video... that reminds us of what our fathers and ancestors dreamed of. They wanted independence but they never rejected our Language and Culture.
No matter how well we learn to speak English we will never become an anglo (English) country. We are Asians with a strong influence of Spanish culture. Thus, we are Fil-hispanos. One of a kind. Very unique in this world. Something we should truly be proud of.

Our brothers from Latin America see us as family. Americans see us only as Asians... nothing more. We are part of a world we deserve. Our fiestas, celebraciones, rituales, hermanos, cultura, herencia, even our apellidos (surnames) tell us and the world that we lie to ourselves whenever we say we are not hispanic.
Very few Filipinos realize that we are almost fully detached from our own culture and identity. I wish that the students or younger ones of this generation relearn our history and what truly makes us Filipino.
I agree with you. Most Filipinos this generation are now into Korean/Chinese/Japanese culture than Hispanic. That's a sad truth about today's culture.
@reasonableskeptic Why is it sad? Filipinos should get back to their Asian roots and discard most of the Spanish influence. The Spanish influence is bad. LONG LIVE ASIA!!!
@40510110 What do you mean, discard thousands of Spanish/Hispanic words in Philippine languages? Discard Spanish/Hispanic Philippine folk songs and dances and discard Roman Catholic religion of the majority? Discard hundreds of years of Philippine history because it is written in Spanish? Kill millions of Filipinos with Spanish blood? What about the fruits and vegetables that were introduced? What about buildings and houses made of steel, brick and concrete? Clocks, electricity, wheel, etc.?
@40510110 Should Filipinos discard the Roman/Spanish alphabet too? What about the system of education? The judicial and agricultural system and the system of centralized government? The Spaniards unified the Philippines. Shall Filipinos of today divide the Philippines and get back to its original Pre-Hispanic state wherein different ethnicities had their own nations? There were no known historical books/manuscripts made by Filipinos prior to Spanish colonization. Shall Filipinos burn those?
@mikhailthegrinch The educational system now is brought by the Americans and those, we should keep. The Spanianrds left Spanish manuscripts anyway. The English ones are what matter. We can also do away with Catholicism and start thinking freely. You are exaggerating and being ridiculous.
@40510110 Get your facts straight. The modern public system of education (compulsory) that Filipinos enjoy now had its humble beginning when Queen Isabella II enacted the Education Decree of 1863 that provided for a complete educational system which would consist of primary, secondary and tertiary levels. Your objective is well-nigh impossible given that Hispanic identity is deeply embedded in the culture of the majority of Filipinos. Who's exaggerating and being ridiculous now?
@mikhailthegrinch You are exaggerating. Educational sysem is not unique to Spaniards. Clock, Wheel, Vegetables are not unique to Spaniards. You are trying to say I want Pinoys not to have legs because Spaniards have legs. You cannot argue logically and sound like an idiot wanting to sound smart(ass). Anyway, eventually Pinoys will have it by adapting western education. Spaniards are not the only source of everything. We should discard fiestas, catholicism and siestas.
@40510110 Ha! Ha! Ha! You are getting more ridiculous than ever! Well, educational system is not unique to Spaniards but the Philippines was 10 years ahead of Japan to offer modern public system of education in Asia. Did you ever know that the Philippines was the first in Asia to do so? China's civilization was way advanced but ironically the Spaniards were the ones to introduce the "WHEEL" to the Filipinos. How ironic!!!!!!!!!!
@mikhailthegrinch So what if Philippine was the first in Asia? Look at you now? YOur schools are all BEHIND even schools in Bangladesh. The Spaniards introduced a lot of things to the Indios but that does not mean indios should worship them. There are wheels all over the world and you can kiss the Spaniard ass if you want but we Chinese are the best.
@40510110 Oh, well. Do not underestimate the Philippines because of its present economic state. The continent of Asia is definitely laughing its ass off your "STUPID AMERICAN" economy now. Look at you, you are one of those useless "CHINESE-FILIPINO AMERICANS" who are trying to make both ends meet just to survive. Poor piece of shit!!!!!! PATHETIC LOSER!!!!!!! By the way, the failing American system of education that you take pride is so pathetic!!!!!!!!!! It makes me puke!!!!
@mikhailthegrinch What? Who says I take pride in American education? I take pride in my CHinese philosophies. Philippines is laughing stock of Asia. Your Mai Mislang laughed at Vietnam and said "wine sucks" but Vietnam already surpassed Philippine and so has Cambodia. Only Myanmar is under Philippines but if they oust the Military Junta there and get a better Government then they will quickly overtake Philippine just like what Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia did. I am a GLOBAL CHINESE.
@40510110 FACT: The Philippines is one of the newly industrialized countries of the world together with Brazil, China, India, Malaysia, Mexico, South Africa, Thailand and Turkey. FACT: G.D.P. (real growth rate) per capita of newly industrialized countries as of 2010 1. CHINA - 9.95% 2. PHILIPPINES - 7.40% 3. INDIA - 7.02% 4. SOUTH AFRICA - 4.92% 5. BRAZIL - 4.50% 6. TURKEY - 4.10% 7. THAILAND - 3.93% 8. MALAYSIA - 3.65% 9. MEXICO - 3.30% AND I AM A GLOBAL FILIPINO!!!!!!
@40510110 Sorry dude... Not all pinoys are like this... only the pisspanic-wannabe losers who are brainwashed by spanish culture, a culture that IS NOT OURS... fucking trolls.
@40510110 I can absolutely argue logically with you because I am more educated than you when it comes to Philippine history. You are just a piece of shit trying to claim your "NATIVE" Filipino heritage. Typical of an ignorant Filipino-American bastard IDIOTIC shit.
@mikhailthegrinch Then why are you not arguing logically? I am not Filipino American. I am Chinese American who grew up in Binondo and Tondo. I just happened to be in Philippine but I do not want to be Filipino piece of shit like you.
@40510110 I am actually arguing logically with you but you just cannot get it because you were born a moron. Yes, you are still a Filipino-American regardless of your race because you acknowledge "TONDO" as your hometown. "FILIPINO" is just a nationality, you moron!
@mikhailthegrinch Correction, spain divided the philippines, they places way too many borders everywhere, and now that is the reason why so many of us with different dialects are fighting with each other. You are fucking brainwashed... You are losing your culture, trust me dude, I used to have the same ideals, I used to be the same fucking loser... Don't follow my past path, instead come to your senses... Pinoy culture is not hispanic culture, do some researching dude...
@mikhailthegrinch Correction, the laguna copperlation was one of the several peices of pre-spanish texts, mentioning a lot of things, I think even the luzon empire. Even then, china and japan has records of the Luzon empire, a very very prosperous empire in the kingdom who prospered in culture and wealth, that is... before the spanish arrived...
@reasonableskeptic why should it be? We were originally into that culture before spanish invaded, it just tells you the truth that we don't belong to hispanic culture. Our culture is already fucked up as it is with what spain did, however in spite of what 3 dirty imperialists have done, our original culture is in the process of rebirth, you cannot hide our true culture... like your ancestors tried to do...
Very nice post expressivist, i particulary like the guita intri, I had not relaised that philli[pine folk music bre such resemblance to flamenco and other euorpean types of tradional music,5 stars!

The abandoned encomiendas in the Philippines were consolidated and cared for by the Catholic missionary Orders. The Spanish gentry in the Philippines congregated within the confines of Manila leaving the countryside to be worked by the missionaries. The problem of implementing the royal decree of teaching Spanish could not be accomplished due to the fewness of Spanish gentry and religious. The easier way took place, the Spanish learned the native languages so education was accomplished thusly.

Encomiendas were under the oversight of Spanish crown representatives and Catholic missionaries. One can imagine how the administration of abandoned encomiendas became a headache to those concerned. The care of both the missions and the settlers fell into the hands of representatives of the Spanish Crown and the Catholic Church. The materially gifted encomiendas were not lacking in secular personnel to carry out day-to-day operations. The spiritual care was left to the religious personnel.
edsnantonio 11 months ago
Simply put, the encomienda was a royal trust obtained from the king of Spain. With this authority, an encomendero could explore and settle the area and resources granted and covered by the royal trust. This was the system used in all Spanish colonies. The productive encomiendas brought the riches to the royal coffers. The non-productive ones were abandoned. The mineral riches of the Philippine encomiendas yielded "nothing," hence abandoned. These settlements were left to the more hardy souls.

Similarly Catholicism was similarly decreed to be practiced. Today the majority of the 1.1 billion Catholics of the world can be found in Mexico, Central, South and North America, and the Philippines. Yet, one little fact stands out, Spanish is not as widely used in the Philippines, unlike Latin America. Why is this so? To my mind, the short answer is gold. The Spanish conquistadors found gold in many places but found close to nothing in the Philippines. The details lay in the encomienda system.

many thanks to xpressivist for uploading this beautiful song by a very accomplished trio about your country and mine, the Philippines. this is also a very good opportunity to learn and talk about the Filipino, Spanish, and Hispanic heritage of the Philippines. The main components of the Spanish culture is the language and the Catholic religion. King Philip II of Spain decreed that ALL Spanish colonies must speak Spanish, this included the Philippines, Central and South American colonies.
edsnantonio 11 months ago
@edsnantonio Actually, I want to point out several things, they probably did find close to nothing in several locations of the philippines, but they also looted and picked clean the old kingdoms in luzon of their wealth, and they had very much hence the fact they were very important in the trade across Asia. I also wouldn't go about labeling catholicism a hispanic heritage, we may have acquired it mostly from them but the religion itself is not directly hispanic, we also learned from portuguese

@ThtOnePinoy i have not come across readings about French-Filipino connection nor the Portuguese-Filipino connection. i would love to read about these connections that you apparently have. i am aware that Magellan was Portuguese. I am also aware that the French, Portuguese, Germans, Spanish and Italians were Catholics. The English, the Dutch were Catholics before their breakaway from the Catholic Church. The historic record does not show French or Portuguese involvement in the Philippines.
edsnantonio 10 months ago
@edsnantonio French involvement was very small from what I have heard, but portuguese findings were much more bigger, however it was limited due to the rivalry the spanish apparently had with them, thus the reasons also why, magellan being a portuguese, was watched by spaniards so as to not give his own country an advancement over the spaniards. The portuguese even has records of the famed kingdom of Luzon or "Luções" as the portuguese explorers named them.
ThtOnePinoy 10 months ago
@ThtOnePinoy the Treaty of Tordesillas took care as to where the Portuguese and Spanish could go. As to the kingdoms of Luzon that were picked cleaned, gold is gold and if there were sizeable quantities the Spanish would have found them (e.g. the gold of Paracale in Bicol). The Portuguese and the Dutch had the navigation charts for the coasts of Africa, the Indian Ocean, the Malay archipelago up to the Spice islands, Ternate and Tidore. Magellan offered Spain the western route from Seville.
edsnantonio 10 months ago
@edsnantonio gold is gold, but there were much more other things than gold that were very valuable, especially the written history, unfortunately, there is a big gap in our written history, and there are much blame that spanish friars burned much of it, seems to be the only plausible explanation, history does not dissapear just like that.
ThtOnePinoy 10 months ago 3
@ThtOnePinoy as children of our history, we take what we can take. The Spanish were not amiss in recording their movements in the Philippines. The Philippine natives were different, their history was mostly oral, good only as far as the reaches of the barangay settlements. that's all they needed. remember the forest cover of the Philippine archipelago was 98%, i.e. impenetrable. our histories were local for the most part hence we still preserve our regional languages.
edsnantonio 10 months ago
@edsnantonio Correction, it was believed to be mostly oral until the findings of the Laguna copperlate. We had written history, the natives were indeed different, the ones who had empires and kingdoms were much more prosperous/successful and wealthier than this generation...
ThtOnePinoy 10 months ago
@ThtOnePinoy for me the jury is still out on the provenance of the Laguna copperplate. If there is one, there should be more. Also the Spanish already knew of Baybayin. Who came first the Spanish use of Baybayin or the author/originator of the copper plate? (i will review my notes on this one and share what got)
edsnantonio 10 months ago
@edsnantonio the laguna copperlate is much older
ThtOnePinoy 10 months ago
@ThtOnePinoy The Laguna Copper Inscription is claimed to go back even earlier than 900 AD. If true, it points to a writing system available to dominant Malay language systems. Magellan owned a Malay servant; Legazpi had the services of a Malay servant; the Spanish translated the Catechism of St Belamine into Tagalog Baybayin in 1593, the Ilocano translation, in 1620. There are no other written documents except for personal notes written in different media, eg leaves, bamboo, other woods, etc.
edsnantonio 10 months ago
@edsnantonio I know there are others but I just cannot jot them down right now, the one I really can know from memory is the Laguna copperlate because I focus on it much in this topic. Regardless, if there was the Laguna Copperlate, there would be others, infact if you read the english translation of it, you would know it sounds like it links to many more documents that either have been found, or not have been found yet, or possibly have been destroyed.
ThtOnePinoy 10 months ago
@ThtOnePinoy Always, we stick with hard, well-documented historical data. For now, the period 900 AD thru 1593 AD (600+ years) is a long period to propose that a well-developed Philippine language system or civilization existed with no facts to back it up.
edsnantonio 10 months ago
@edsnantonio If it is evidence of a sophisticated civilization you were looking for, rest assured there are many evidence of that, for example, there are many pottery written in the Kulitan script, which is the writing system of the Kapampangans, which was used to sign many information on the pottery, and these all were found to have been traded in the Japanese market, from where? The Kingdom of Tondo, it is undeniable that the Kapampangans are actually the descendants of that Kingdom.

@xpressivist If I said anything else well I'm sorry, but I do not take kindly to colonial mentality, it's worse than crab mentality. Here, to put it easier for the both of us, do you recognize pre-spanish culture? AND do you think hispanic culture is dominant over the other cultures filipino share, including our own culture?
ThtOnePinoy 11 months ago
@ThtOnePinoy Nobody is trying to put the Spanish culture over and above the Filipino culture here, mister wiseguy! Like I said before, the Filipino culture is a hodgepodge of Chinese, Malay, Arab, Hindu, Spanish, American, and other cultures. The song here does not even suggest that the Spanish culture is a dominant one. But our culture is surely partly Hispanic. This is not controversial even among Latin Americans. I don't understand why you keep on attacking a straw man here.
xpressivist 11 months ago
@xpressivist Then it is a misunderstanding between both sides, sorry but I despise colonial mentality with the utmost hatred, and feel that it would be an honor to have it annihilated. However, I don't have a problem with per-say, chabacano and fiestas and such, however I do have a problem with the schools and perhaps the media in P.I. right now having a very eurocentric outlook, even you have to have at least given notice of that.

@ThtOnePinoy There are so many Spanish documents in the national library that need to be read & understood by Filipinos. Our heroes wrote mostly in Spanish and the first Philippine constitution was written in Spanish. We also need to learn Spanish in order to trade well with Latin America and Spain. These are only a few of the reasons why we need to re-learn Spanish. Talks about "OUR TRUE CULTURE" makes my skin crawl. Its like "GOD" to me. I don't think there is such a thing. Its an Illusion.
xpressivist 11 months ago
@xpressivist regardless, there were many documents written by our national heroes in tagalog as well, probably more, you do not have proof of whichever one they mostly wrote in. What NEEDS to be done is to strengthen our original culture, show our pre-spanish culture, and even then, our original writing system is even showing it's reivival in the new currency bills in the philippines. Way more are interested in their original cultrue than the minority of their culture.

@xpressivist Our culture right now is a shadow of it's former self, yes. However, I never said a mix of latin is bad, I only said trying to overshadow the original culture with hispanic culture isn't right, we should promote our original culture before our hispanic parts. You seem to be misunderstanding what I say, and it's clear for the fact you try to dismiss our pre-spanish culture. Oh and stop deleting my comments, if you're wrong at least have the balls to say it.
ThtOnePinoy 11 months ago
@ThtOnePinoy The Spanish culture is part of the Filipino culture in (more or less) the same way that it is part of Latin American culture. Nobody worships another culture here. Its just a fact that the Filipino culture is partly Latin. You can do nothing about that. Its simply a historical fact. I don't see anything wrong with that. In fact, we need to strengthen that culture by re-learning the Spanish language.
xpressivist 11 months ago
@xpressivist I don't see anything wrong with parts of latin influence either, almost all races have it, latin itself was influenced by many other things, so itself is a mix. However, I don't see the point in making spanish an official language, nor spreading it. Spanish should be taught as another language in schools, but making it a requirement is just impractical, not even here in america is spanish itself ever a requirement, only if the school ever only has spanish due to the economy

@ThtOnePinoy I perceive cultural purism in your comments. There's no "culture" in this world that is pristine. The Filipino culture is a hodgepodge of many influences: Chinese, Indian, Hindu, Spanish, & American. In regard Vietnam, I think there's a false analogy there. Vietnam was colonized by the French for only 67 years (1887-1954). The Philippines was colonized by Spain for more than 300 years! You can still see the influence of Spain in religion and language in the Philippines.
xpressivist 11 months ago
@xpressivist no i am not a culture purist, but we have our own culture, why should we be fully hispanic when it's not even us? Plus it was a culture that was shoved down our throats. Regardless, I don't see a reason to make spanish an official language, nor is there any reason to start claiming we are hispanic, we are a wide variety of things we are, but why should we start throwing around hispanic supremacy? Thats overshadowing the original culture... Saying we dont have one is an excuse

@xpressivist point being, yes it's an influence, but why make it look like it's the major influence? We have much more other cultures than spanish, but regardless, from what a lot of people here are complaining about, I guess fellow pinoys are actually starting to find their pre-hispanic culture. Good for them, perhaps one day they will realize just how much we have lost.
ThtOnePinoy 11 months ago
@xpressivist think of it this way, due to the heavy mixes, not alot of us want either one to start having supremacy over the other, but it just so happens a lot of "us" are the oriental types, or arabic types, and it just so happens we feel it is important to endorse our pre-spanish culture more. Now we don't have a problem with latin culture, but no way in hell are we going to start claiming our language is spanish, and that im a latino. Oh, and our original culture isn't indigenous

During the war, it was Espanol that was used by the illustrados to communicate and unite the country, since we had many dialects and they would not have understood each other if it were not in Spanish. (Tagalog was not National Language then.)

Remember they are LANGUAGES not dialects. Look up the definition of a language and dialect. The Tagalog government referes to other Filipino languages as "dialects" because they want to get it in our heads that non-Tagalog languages are inferior. In Mexico you have the right to be taught/get information in over 60 indigenous languages. But in the Philippines Cebuano, Ilocano, Kampampangan etc. are not officially recognized and it is illegal to sing the national anthem in any of these languages.

Our Independence Day is near and I would like to share with you this video... that reminds us of what our fathers and ancestors dreamed of. They wanted independence but they never rejected our Language and Culture.

No matter how well we learn to speak English we will never become an anglo (English) country. We are Asians with a strong influence of Spanish culture. Thus, we are Fil-hispanos. One of a kind. Very unique in this world. Something we should truly be proud of.

Our brothers from Latin America see us as family. Americans see us only as Asians... nothing more. We are part of a world we deserve. Our fiestas, celebraciones, rituales, hermanos, cultura, herencia, even our apellidos (surnames) tell us and the world that we lie to ourselves whenever we say we are not hispanic.

Very few Filipinos realize that we are almost fully detached from our own culture and identity. I wish that the students or younger ones of this generation relearn our history and what truly makes us Filipino.

I agree with you. Most Filipinos this generation are now into Korean/Chinese/Japanese culture than Hispanic. That's a sad truth about today's culture.

@reasonableskeptic Why is it sad? Filipinos should get back to their Asian roots and discard most of the Spanish influence. The Spanish influence is bad. LONG LIVE ASIA!!!

@40510110 What do you mean, discard thousands of Spanish/Hispanic words in Philippine languages? Discard Spanish/Hispanic Philippine folk songs and dances and discard Roman Catholic religion of the majority? Discard hundreds of years of Philippine history because it is written in Spanish? Kill millions of Filipinos with Spanish blood? What about the fruits and vegetables that were introduced? What about buildings and houses made of steel, brick and concrete? Clocks, electricity, wheel, etc.?

@40510110 Should Filipinos discard the Roman/Spanish alphabet too? What about the system of education? The judicial and agricultural system and the system of centralized government? The Spaniards unified the Philippines. Shall Filipinos of today divide the Philippines and get back to its original Pre-Hispanic state wherein different ethnicities had their own nations? There were no known historical books/manuscripts made by Filipinos prior to Spanish colonization. Shall Filipinos burn those?
mikhailthegrinch 1 year ago
@mikhailthegrinch The educational system now is brought by the Americans and those, we should keep. The Spanianrds left Spanish manuscripts anyway. The English ones are what matter. We can also do away with Catholicism and start thinking freely. You are exaggerating and being ridiculous.
40510110 1 year ago
@40510110 Get your facts straight. The modern public system of education (compulsory) that Filipinos enjoy now had its humble beginning when Queen Isabella II enacted the Education Decree of 1863 that provided for a complete educational system which would consist of primary, secondary and tertiary levels. Your objective is well-nigh impossible given that Hispanic identity is deeply embedded in the culture of the majority of Filipinos. Who's exaggerating and being ridiculous now?
mikhailthegrinch 1 year ago
@mikhailthegrinch You are exaggerating. Educational sysem is not unique to Spaniards. Clock, Wheel, Vegetables are not unique to Spaniards. You are trying to say I want Pinoys not to have legs because Spaniards have legs. You cannot argue logically and sound like an idiot wanting to sound smart(ass). Anyway, eventually Pinoys will have it by adapting western education. Spaniards are not the only source of everything. We should discard fiestas, catholicism and siestas.
40510110 1 year ago
@40510110 Ha! Ha! Ha! You are getting more ridiculous than ever! Well, educational system is not unique to Spaniards but the Philippines was 10 years ahead of Japan to offer modern public system of education in Asia. Did you ever know that the Philippines was the first in Asia to do so? China's civilization was way advanced but ironically the Spaniards were the ones to introduce the "WHEEL" to the Filipinos. How ironic!!!!!!!!!!
mikhailthegrinch 1 year ago
@mikhailthegrinch So what if Philippine was the first in Asia? Look at you now? YOur schools are all BEHIND even schools in Bangladesh. The Spaniards introduced a lot of things to the Indios but that does not mean indios should worship them. There are wheels all over the world and you can kiss the Spaniard ass if you want but we Chinese are the best.

@40510110 Oh, well. Do not underestimate the Philippines because of its present economic state. The continent of Asia is definitely laughing its ass off your "STUPID AMERICAN" economy now. Look at you, you are one of those useless "CHINESE-FILIPINO AMERICANS" who are trying to make both ends meet just to survive. Poor piece of shit!!!!!! PATHETIC LOSER!!!!!!! By the way, the failing American system of education that you take pride is so pathetic!!!!!!!!!! It makes me puke!!!!
mikhailthegrinch 1 year ago
@mikhailthegrinch What? Who says I take pride in American education? I take pride in my CHinese philosophies. Philippines is laughing stock of Asia. Your Mai Mislang laughed at Vietnam and said "wine sucks" but Vietnam already surpassed Philippine and so has Cambodia. Only Myanmar is under Philippines but if they oust the Military Junta there and get a better Government then they will quickly overtake Philippine just like what Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia did. I am a GLOBAL CHINESE.

@40510110 I can absolutely argue logically with you because I am more educated than you when it comes to Philippine history. You are just a piece of shit trying to claim your "NATIVE" Filipino heritage. Typical of an ignorant Filipino-American bastard IDIOTIC shit.
mikhailthegrinch 1 year ago
@mikhailthegrinch Then why are you not arguing logically? I am not Filipino American. I am Chinese American who grew up in Binondo and Tondo. I just happened to be in Philippine but I do not want to be Filipino piece of shit like you.
40510110 1 year ago
@40510110 I am actually arguing logically with you but you just cannot get it because you were born a moron. Yes, you are still a Filipino-American regardless of your race because you acknowledge "TONDO" as your hometown. "FILIPINO" is just a nationality, you moron!

@mikhailthegrinch Correction, spain divided the philippines, they places way too many borders everywhere, and now that is the reason why so many of us with different dialects are fighting with each other. You are fucking brainwashed... You are losing your culture, trust me dude, I used to have the same ideals, I used to be the same fucking loser... Don't follow my past path, instead come to your senses... Pinoy culture is not hispanic culture, do some researching dude...
ThtOnePinoy 11 months ago
@mikhailthegrinch Correction, the laguna copperlation was one of the several peices of pre-spanish texts, mentioning a lot of things, I think even the luzon empire. Even then, china and japan has records of the Luzon empire, a very very prosperous empire in the kingdom who prospered in culture and wealth, that is... before the spanish arrived...
ThtOnePinoy 11 months ago
@reasonableskeptic why should it be? We were originally into that culture before spanish invaded, it just tells you the truth that we don't belong to hispanic culture. Our culture is already fucked up as it is with what spain did, however in spite of what 3 dirty imperialists have done, our original culture is in the process of rebirth, you cannot hide our true culture... like your ancestors tried to do...
Learn to be less ignorant you fucking asshole...
