  • All you Filipinos should quit claiming to be Pacific Islanders just because you think it's cool. Truth is that you're Asian because the Philippines IS a part of Asia. It's as simple as that. India is also part of Asia, therefore Indians are ALSO Asians. You don't necessarily have to have that stereotypical "chinky" look to be Asian. Get it right. Get it straight. Race is just something that defines where you or your ancestors came from.

  • Name of the song used? Hehehe.

  • Fuck people who are from Southeast Asia.

  • rich people or noble people known as ''MAHARLIKA'' in philippines in ancient times

  • Lol, I could hardly guess in the last part, and I'm SE Asian. Hahaha!

    I'm like "wait....that's Filipino..no, no, that's Laotian...wait! She's Indone-Oh, the answer is Malaysian." Hahahaha!

  • FILIPINOS ARE ASIANS!

  • I liked the last part, I'm only half Filipino and I live in the UK, so I didn't guess all of them right, but I knew the Filipinos.

  • I guessed wrong on all of them. They all look the same lol.

  • You wish Mr Aokto, ulgy Jap Chin.....

  • Thanks

    I need this on my report

  • Filipino's Dance isnt like that :| i think thats for muslims?

  • @beyuhpudilyah Nope! That's the real Filipino dance. Filipinos were Muslims, Buddhist and Hindus before they were Christianize by Spain. Islam is still alive in the Philippines in these days even though the majority of the populations are now Roman Catholic. Remember that we are SOUTHEAST ASIANS you know!

  • i love indonesia

  • Comment removed

  • i get mad when my friend says im not asian im like ure effing stupid!!!im filipino(:

    my youtube is BlasianBoyXD

    i love this video so much:)

  • im filipino & i have to admit that most, not all filipinos want to associate themselves with the spaniards,us bieng colonized by spain for hundreds of years..i think the one at fault here are our history teachers and ancestors for instilling us that we are proud to be a mixed race and culture.if i remembered correctly they refferd to it as "improvement of the race"...but when all in honesty we look like the typical southeast asians,so please filipinos lets take pride of being a southeast asian

  • @strawberrychipmunks really? I didn't know for a long time your country was occupied by spain.

    By the way Filipinos have awesome personalities. I know 5 of my customers are Filipinos and they are the most gentle people on earth.

  • @Sarah01181225 yes philippines was colonized by spain for 333 years..thanks to spain they introduced roman catholic religion in our country..filpinoes are humble lot but can be extremely mean when other races or nationality discriminate us

  • @strawberrychipmunks YES BUT Y DEY THINK DEY ARE NOT ASIAN? WTF

  • as long as we still talking about asian and asian identity im ok with it,we do arguing things in this matter and yet im ok with it..

    but i just can't take anymore bullshits from the "Afrocentrism" anymore,they're desperately trying to relate us SE Asians with black culture,and claim it as their beloved black cultures..that was just as crazy as telling everyone that Jesus has an Ipod Touch!..

    youtube.com/watch?v=av_JaADauY­I

    check that link guys..that was crazy!..

  • oh my God, on most of the pics, i said filipino to most of them... sheesh, we do kinda all look kinda alike... it's all from our roots i guess.

  • lol through the pictures, to me they all looked the same. but great video!

  • aight, by reading all the comments there are

    south asians vs south east asians

    Filipinos are different of all th rest S.E asians.

    and Racist

    seriously.. WTF?...

    S.E Asians look the same ,

    South Asians (korea, japan and china) look the same also AND RIGHT NOW, THIS NEW GENERATION YOU CAN'T EVEN TELL IF THEY ARE KOREANS OR CHINESE or even Japanese! WHY?.. simple because a decade ago the interracial marriage increased like Korea and Japan , Chinese-Korea and also Chinese-Filipino

  • @pandoratommorow and one more thing, for the next decade you cannot completely possible tell if what nationality they are from

    also the same to us South East Asians, I am a Filipino and I have a Malaysian and a Vietnamese friend. We are all look alike and when the first time I introduce them to my mom she thought that they are all Filipino.

    you see? the World right now is Connecting each other. Avoid this kind of bias ethnicity conclusion. stop the prejudice.

  • @pandoratommorow

    South Asians are Indians LOL

    what you are talking about is East Asian

  • @pandoratommorow well i don't mean to offend anyone but even w/o intermarriage, asians still look the same. genetically speaking u are all the same, u all have that Y chromosome w/c is only found among asians. thats why when u go to west, don't b surprised if people mistake u as chinese. the only asians who are different are ME/indian/pakistani coz they are genetically caucasians. no wonder US & UK don't group them alongside east & SE asians. FYI, ME countries r technically asians too

  • to the one who created this Video? are you a Japanese?

  • @pandoratommorow no I am filipino but I teach in Japan.

  • Vietnam should TAKE BACK THEIR EAST ASIAN LAND!!!!!!!

    YOU VIETNAMESE ARE LOSING YOUR IDENTITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

    don't be like the ugly brown indian-influenced southeast asians!!

  • Comment removed

  • @EastAsiandictator i think that all the asians who are racists to other asian racists should all live on one island and fuck each other. just like you. you make asians look bad. its like seeing a guy from england talking shit to a guy from france. pitty.

  • @MegaMoFUnk Please do not write to me you inferior,brown shithead.

  • @EastAsiandictator you know its true. thats why you cant really say anything back but to talk about my skin color. that is all you have, then you will probably secondly start off about talking about my IQ too. your pathetic.

  • @MegaMoFUnk well they (england) are already doing that against spaniards who they claim isn't white & european

  • @jmdortega but what i am trying to say is why would another asian talk shit about another asian when we have so much similarities in cultures. Racism has gone on for too long. People claim to believe in god or w/e they believe in, but then again they also want their race to be the higher above others, that to me is evil. Nothing anghellic about that dont you think? put all those racists on a island together and see how long they last compared to a non racist group.

  • @MegaMoFUnk ya i understand what ur trying to say. but this dont happen only to asians. even in the west also they talk shit to one another. and even people of the same country also talk shit to one another. i actually experienced that also in the country where i was born & live juz because i'm of diff ethnicity & race, they think i'm an alien. racial segregation maybe gone but the racism/discrimination is still present. i agree w/ u, this racist thing is evil coz nobody is born superior.

  • @jmdortega that is very true, we can only hope for it to stop but thats a decision for everybody to make on their own. thanks for understanding. :]

  • @EastAsiandictator india has significantly influenced east asia you know. There would be no pagodas, the typical east asian architecture, if indian thought never reached the sinosphere. In fact they were inspired by indian stupas. Plus a significant aspect of east asian spirituality as well as buddhism was profilerated by india. Dont try to change history. Cultures and countries wouldnt exist without the sharing of ideas. You're obviously young or else you would understand.

  • C'mon filipinos pls stop saying ur mixed or u look more spanish or ur more beautiful & exotic than your asian neighbors, WTF. U don't even look anything spanish or latino, not even close. Stop claiming ur hispanic/latino coz ur not & will never be. Juz becoz spain ruled ur country & u got <3% mestizos there doesn't make u one w/ us. Stop distancing urself from ur real chinito brothers & stop acting like wannabee latinos or americans. FUCK THOSE DIE-HARD WANNABEES, U GUYS SUCK!!!

  • @jmdortega (i mean this only to those die-hard wannabee americans or wannabee latinos) if ur proud asian filipino, this isn't for u

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @jmdortega filipinos are asian. the only ones that think they are pacific islander are usually the ones that dont want to relate to asian culture and they think that if they are asian, they would be related to china or japan and they rather want to be close with the pacific islander side (micronesian, polynesian, melanesian, etc.)

  • @vs61083 yes i agree. i have met many filipinos who claim theyre mixed w/ spanish, theyre look more spanish & more exotic ....ugh! yes i know philippine is ruled by spain BUT that doesn't make them spanish. vietnam is also ruled by french but its not mean theyre french. and look at their people, they look chinese w/ a slightly darker skin, their cultures although theres some spanish to it but still more asian. i know it coz i'm hispanic & i see many differences b/w filipinos & us including face.

  • @vs61083 filipinas want to get out of asian while india, pakistan & australia are striving to get in. US dont recognize the former 2 countries as asians coz of their caucasoid race while australia is really of other continent

  • I am Filipino First! Second as a ASEAN Citizen. and lastly Asian in general. Lets face it the east asian wants to mixed with SE asian. ASEAN + 3(China, S Korea, Japan) thats a fact.

  • Vietnam and Singapore ARE NOT SOUTHEAST ASIANS BUT ARE ONLY LOCATED THERE>....

    LOOK AT VIETNAM OLD SCRIPT LOOK AT VIETNAMS CULTURE

    i dont see any INDIAN SHIT

    LOOK AT SINGAPORE ONLY CHINESE

  • @EastAsiandictator shut up ! singapore isn't east asian land..chinese go there as refugee..!!!!

    Singapore came from words "Singapura" from malay word.in the past singapore called tumasik island.singapore is malay land.

    north vietnam is east asian but not south vietnam.they are south east asian.so "go home" to all north vietnamese !!! i mean please back to china as your motherland..lol

    SOUTH EAST ASIA POWER !!!

  • @RazaPutraIndo Vietnam was located in present-day NORTHEASTASIA

    BUT WAS CHASED DOWN TO SOUTHEASTASIA AFTER INDEPENDENCE!

    YOU ARE SO

    FUCKING

    DUMB!

    DUMB

    ASS

    IDIOT

  • @EastAsiandictator so,tell your government to join east asian group !!! we are not welcome with gooks like you..LMAO..!!! Vietnamese of east asian must out from ASEAN !! no one receive you in japan,china and korea cause your people are low enough to call east asian..that is your pride..lol

  • @EastAsiandictator vietnam is part of southeast asia geographically, but its people and culture is closely related to east asian culture. vietnam is part of the sinosphere (east or northeast asia)

  • @EastAsiandictator young man, please learn about ethnic migrations and diasporas. If you hate this so called" indian shit" then please take out all buddhist statues and and pagodas in east asia.

  • i think filipinos are the most good-looking race in SE asia.. it's not like being a racist but, im just telling the truth.. sorry if i offend you.

  • @PMsuperboy you must be pinoy! hahaha..

  • @bagoes91 yes i am.. and i am not being bias.. am just telling the truth..

  • @PMsuperboy

    I think filipinas are the most beautiful in the world. LOL

  • @PMsuperboy nah, all of south east asians look good =D

  • @XxmurdercupidXx i bet ur right ! but not all :P

  • Comment removed

  • @PMsuperboy oh cmon filipinos you are all look the same with other southeast asians. dont ever think you look diffferent among southeast asians. i dont understand why u filipinos are so arrogant & egoistic.

  • the race of southeast asian is almost the same.. ^^

  • thailand are poser just to let that out! but thailand and vietnamese came from china dats what i heard. idk about laos

  • It's very easy to distinguish people from SE Asia from people from NE Asia, chinese=korean=japanese=most of vietnamese, although VN belongs to SE Asia. Other SE Asians look apparently different,

  • For me,in the question what is he, she tehy, It's very difficult to identify specifically all southeast asian people bvecause they are the same color and blood. They are the same with us as chamorro, from guam.

  • I have a question me and all my filipino friend were wondering are we asian or pacific islander. I mean we are mix with malay and spanish. Reply back and tell me what you think just wanna know what you're opinion is

  • @LegendaryVNese VIETNAMESE is the SUPER ASIAN RACE! all other asians are not asians, they are just monkeys, who WISH they were asian! vietnamese is the only asian group!

  • @vietpride247 dirty scambodian animal shut the fuck up.

    Why do you niggers of Asia always pose as Vietnamese you little wog??

  • @LegendaryVNese they are

  • @TheGreatNguyen stfu u wannabe viet! u aint viet so stop pretending u are one of us! we viets are the best asian, and the only asian who exist! all other people WANT to be label as ASIAN, but viets are true asian ONLY.

  • @vietpride247 I know it's very hard for you Cambodians. Everywhere you go, people always judge you about your skin, your noses, and your..everything. Your people have nothing to be proud of, therefore all you can do is to pose as Vietnamese, chinese, american, and even ...martian on the internet. Dirty low IQ fucks. The Vietnamese will soonly wipe your monkey race off, very very soon. Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha

  • @TheGreatNguyen first of all, why does everyone think cambodians are monkeys and nigger of asia? cambodians dont even look black idiot! im vietnamese u are not! stop hating cambodians because i am not one, im viet got it?!

  • @vietpride247 whatever nigger

  • @LegendaryVNese then who are they? hispanics or P.I.? nahhhhh

  • @killedude please stop saying that all ur people is half spanish..the fact is no more than 3% of ur people have spanish blood,just proud of ur race..Austronesian is the best race in all Asia..we have all features,like candy eyes just like arabs and Indian,brown skinned and plump body just like Latina,curly and wavy hair just like Italian and southern europeans,and not so tall like other asians..lol

  • @RazaPutraIndo i totally agree with you. and its irritating that most of them think they're different from other SE asians. i'm hispanic & of real spanish descent & i don't see anything spanish in them (filipinos) except the religion & names

  • @killedude well basically we're asians, it's just that our country is so greatly influenced by Pacific Islanders and Spanish and American cultures/people that there's so much similarity... Even if you search it online we are Asians, Austronesian also mixed in with us .... but I myself am really confused... but technically speaking we are asians :) hope somehow that helped

  • @killedude you're A-S-I-A-N ok. and u are not mixed ok, only less than 3% are have caucasian blood in their genes and the rest are pure asians. juz becoz spain took over your country doesn't make u spanish. what heppened there is not same w/ latin america that had mixed w/ spanish. u have spanish surnames coz spaniards gave it to ur malay ancestors. so if u met a filipino & he say he is part-spanish but cant prove it aside from his surname, don't mind him.

  • My thought there is no serious fighting in this video, if there is no race feel superior to other race..exp " East asian (Yellow) vs Southeast asian (Brown).

    what's the point being yellow people? and what is bad to be brown-skinned people ? yellow more superior ? then browned are inferior,just because they are dark ? LOL people who think like this was ridiculous !!

  • You should see US as an example, where the afro-american (actually Dark/Black) managed to raise their status in there from people who originally came as slaves for the white race, but now they've mastered the international music world with their creations (Black music such as Hip Hop,R N B,Blues,Jazz,etc),

  • and managed to improve their standard of living is almost parallel to the white (at least obama as evidence which successful being the 1st Black American president in US history), while those coming from Asia (which is actually lighter-skinned if compared with Afro-American) is still struggling to gain for a better status there.

  • i am cham people as well i was born in cambodia our language is similar to the malays language in malaysia, indonesia, filippine and the pacific islands.

    for example: counting !

    sa(1) dua(2) klew(3) pak(4) leme (5) nam (6) tajuh (7) tapan(8) simlan ((9) hapluh (10) ......this the way i write any mistake please apologize !

  • @khmerislam yes..!! you are cham,same like Indonesians,malaysians, Filipinos,Micronesians and Polynesians..you are my Austronesian cousin..

    greetings from Indonesia..!! :))

  • Finally a real video to educate those dumb Filipino- Americans. Thank ''gintongrajah'' for making this video.

  • Comment removed

  • @Aokto ok...good for you

  • Comment removed

  • @Aokto i think ur an southeast asian. coz us we see you all the same

  • @Aokto

  • this is so truee !

    i totally hate it when people say filipinos are pacific islanders.

    i mean, how about japan? they're an island too !

    filipinos are ASIAANNN!

  • flipz up pinoys rle and south asians

  • What's up with East Asians' and Southeast Asians' fighting? We are all Asian.

    I'm Chinese/Cambodian...

  • This is a simple (?) what song is this?.

  • lol this is funny Se asian and East asian fighting like a fag.. we all asian we should unite.. im from the philippines and we support stuff from east asia.. like dramas music food etc

  • proud to be south east asian! :)

  • this went from filipinos arn't asian too SE Asians are prettier than East Asians. haha i love people.

  • and don't forget the whole "are vietnamese east asian or southeast asian"....i hate how other asians act like they have the right to label other asians as one thing. im vietnamese and im se asian.

  • @vietpride247 Vietnamese are genetically & geographically SOUTHEAST ASIAN, BUT culturally east asian .

  • me 2, proud to be South East Asian and Filipino to be specific!

  • this is stupid..havent you forget? early filipinos came fro "balangays"/ships from malaysia then got mixed with white(spain400Yrs & american colonization era) then got mix with indian and arab settlers/TRADERS then got mixed with chinese immgirants then ofcourse got mixed by japanese colonization... the pacific islanders you all portraying is the aeta's/negritoes which are ethnic pygmy people wich came here first from TAIWAN.. anyway YOU CANT HIDE WHATS INSIDE!

  • im full filipino...but i look more chinese....

    i consider filipino's asian

  • TRAVIS YAMAMOTO! please watch this video. kthxbye <3

  • not most. FILIPINOS ARE ASIANS PERIOD!

  • it sucks alot for most fillipinos consider them pacific islanders. to me, we asians are superior to you pacific islanders in terms of our culture, language, looks, customes, foods ect. LOL

  • Comment removed

  • i dont believe that being asian or pacific islanders should be an issue. But in terms of culture, philippines is westernized or hispanized. Being westernized is better for me.

  • Let the Asian Nation Unite!, that would be weird if Asia were united it would be like America only with Asians.

  • The real and ancient name of Philippines is Maharlika ...

  • @elbertreal that is false. maharlika was a term for a specific class of filipinos on the caste system.

  • This video is so true. FILIPINOS ARE SOUTH EAST ASIANS! But how come the Filipino-Americans believe that Filipinos are Pacific Islander?

  • Because those fil-ams are ashamed to be who they are. some of them are even more ashamed saying filipino. But me I am proud to be asian and filipino, i am fil am by the way.

  • Ignorance and stereotypes.

  • @Mangkukutod LOL!!...well i'm indonesian,but i spent about 8 months in the philippines,davao city...do not even talk about those "FIL-AM"...most of my friends there in davao don't even know where is indonesia,malaysia or thailand...the worst part is..personaly i think they almost have no identity as a nation,except their language...

  • @DIAJAK Well, how about this? I have Indonesian friends, they dont know what is Austronesian and they never heard about Batik. Now, did I generalize the Indonesian because of this? No! Of course not! So yeah you shouldnt generalize the people just because others are ignorant. Speaking of Identity, I dont care what you think about us but we are who we are. Filipino culture is a product of mixed diverse cultures from Austronesian to Hindu, Chinese, Hispanic and American culture.

  • @Mangkukutod your Indonesian friends never heard abt batik? you must be kidding! every friday all students (and most officers) wear batik. or your friends never go to school..hehe

  • @DIAJAK . Youve mentioned the language. Well, language is the spirit of national identity.

  • Don't forget that Filipino food has a lot of SE Asain influence. like pancit noodles, spring roll lumpia, fish sauce, and lots of rice.

  • I knew it. WE ARE DEFINITELY ASIANS!

  • Love this video! :) Learned a lot!

    But a lot of the Filipino Americans I hang out with (I am one myself) know and consider ourselves Asian. We live in Hawaii so maybe only the ones from the Mainland say they are Pacific Islanders?

  • ASEAN has being around, early prior period of Buddhism ,,, we all have this Idea of getting rid of all form of North Asian..And Create Our Only Native South East Asia.. this is like maybe 10,000 to 20,000 years ago ...

  • just shut up ok? u troll!!! stop pretending to be cambodian!

  • Yeah, SE Asia share pretty similar looks in an area which were the part involved during tradional inter-regional trade era ....

    East Sumatra share pretty various looks... Northern part of Java Island due to heavy trade during traditional era, they've got pretty various looks. Southern part of Java may look a bit homogenized. It is also happened in Indonesia, when you're comparing the coastal people and the far-inlanders .... Coastal tends to have more mixed-up....

  • cambodian derive from viet nam people, so everyone need to stop create false history.

  • Very interesting.

  • 3:52 POLYSICS!!!!!

  • I'm Half vietnamese..and i've seen vietnamese people are physically the same as the other southeast asian.katiuvshaVN4 is Vietnamese woman who aspire to become mail order bride in the East Asian countries.Therefore, he was obsessed with east asian characteristics and her dream that all vietnamese people have physical characteristics such east asian people..

    NO WAY !!! we proud with our physical as true vietnamese !!

  • we came from east asia

  • because I know that in vietnam there are lots of different tribes.if you say that only vietnamese people who came from east asia means you are wrong.all southeast asian ancestors came from mainland China.

  • but that does not mean they all become east asian.If North Vietnam people have the same physical characteristics with people in the South of China then it is a normal thing.because the opportunity to perform mixed marriages is much larger than other areas which is not directly adjacent to the mainland china.

  • @lagodaxnian East asian means all peoples in the Orient beyond Scambodian.

    Korean, Chinese and Japanese don;t even share the same DNA and origin, therefore there is no East Asian DNA, anyone who lives in fucking East Asia will suddenly become East Asian.

  • @IaVaoMomNguy if we talking in geographic terms the true oriental asia is starting from korean peninsula to malaysian peninsula.but the archipelago countries like Indonesia,Philippines and Japan are not in oriental area.

  • the most appropriate term is the FAR EASTERN for the Mainland and the island territories in East Asia and South east Asia region.and if we talk through geographical terms it would make someone being racist and facist.they will choose the areas they want according to their dreams..lol

  • so the term east asian for vietnamese only limited influence in the field of culture and not more than that.

  • my ethnic group migrated from lands that are consider east asian. i guess we can be consider southeast asian, but viets are on champa and khmer land

  • you make great points.. but i dunno.

  • so stop stating that all vietnam people are east asians,because of the fact that the people of east asia do not think the people of vietnam as part of their.They keep referring to you as southeast asian..

  • "because the people of east asia do not think the people of vietnam as part of their"

    dude.  who gives a fuck what they think. from now on, if we have question, we asked what east asian thinks? thats great

  • i never said we are east asian.. i said my ethnic group came from lands in east asian.

  • why u keep claiming viets as southeast asian fool, we are east asian duh....idiot.

  • what ? are you kidding ? those attractive korean and Japanese all actors,actress or celebrities..in my country,i almost never seen them as attractive people..lol

  • damn i didnt get any of those right lol.. if im planning to go to countries like malayasia, indonesia, phillipines and stuff to tour buddhist sites what language would be most useful?

  • @dudeonthasopha hmmm, wherever ur staying the longest... i dont suggest filipino tho coz sounds like u already know english, and in the philippines, english is all u need, almost everyone can communicate to u in english also, signs, billboards, radios, instructions, etc are all in english.. but phils is mostly catholic so idk any great buddhist site to recommend.

  • for Philippines, english. all the signs, bulletins and etc are in english ;) Philippines are the top5 english speakers in the whole world ya know. :)

  • sorry i really can't tell! meh, even though im flip sometimes i see some flip that looks like chinese/japs and almost all of SEA has the same skin tone (note: i sed almost)

  • SouthEast Asian Pirde

    Thai Pride! :D

  • vietpride247:

    LOL it's obvious that you're not Vietnamese (Kinh ethnicity). No wonder you keep talking shit about Vietnam

  • is it true that filipina looks like latina?

  • ! we had been colonized by spain for 300 years that is why some of us looks like latina!!! and include also the 50 years colonization of the united states!!! ^_^ we are different from south east asian!!! for we have four cultures from SE,US,SPAIN(EUROPE),ASIA(CHINA AND JAPAN) we are that diverced that is why some of us have this identity crisis!!!^_^

  • @sunade143

    yup, worst thing is our culture is not taught in schools. if your interested try william henry scott's books as a star. Good luck

  • lawlz! so true! D:

    I actually mistook one of my three classmate as Koreans XD "ui, matagalog ka nga, nanonosebleed na ako rito eh" and there're two who look alot like Americans when they are Flips O__e haha. some mistook me as Indian. xDD

  • @lenka4life NOOOO. i'm a latina & i got many filipino friends but they don't look anything other than chinese. their chinky eyes, flat faces, big noses, small dicks, small & flat bodies says it all. but unfortunately those stupid wannabees are trying to make a shit out of us & claiming themselves latinos or spanish. so when a filipino tells u that they look more spanish or latin, don't listen to him.

  • @jmdortega what a nice girl you are dissing on your filipino friends..i wonder if you really consider them your friends..

  • Chinese call Vietnamese that because the 2 countries are enemies. They call Vietnamese that in order to insult them and to make them more somehow comfort the fact that China got beaten in Vietnam 30 years ago....You don't understand anything so shut up for everybody's sake!

  • you shut your face Katiusha! how can vietnam be east asian when it is GEOGRAPHICALLY in southeast asia, vietnamese sounds closer to cambodian and thai then it does to mandarin or korean. just accept it that east asians look down on vietnamese and they dont consider us as their own, i've learned to accept it now, although it was hard, im vietnamese and i accept my se asian roots. but like i said, you can do what you want, no one can tell you what you are or are not, im just expressing "me".

  • vietpride247:

    I see. you're not even Kinh ethnicity (true Vietnamese)....You're Cham or Khmer descendant

  • vietnam is part of se asia, but i think that katiusha person is referring to viet people are more like east asian. the way i see majority of viet people have major chinese influences, and viet lifestyle, culture, and charecteristic are more of east asian-ish, but nothing like se asian material. just look at your people and your language. even though vietnam is close to cambodia laos and thailand, viets are not similar to those 3 neighbors.

  • how would you define east asian-ish lifestyle?

    however, this vid is kinda misleading. Unknown person would assume that Cham people are mixed with Vietnamese now, which is totally wrong. After Vietnam took over the land of the Cham, many fled to Malaysia which is a well-known fact. So there is still a very sharp difference between Cham people and Vietnamese people.

  • arent the cham people ethnic minority in cambodia/south vietnam? and most of them are muslims that live in cambodia or theyre referred as khmer muslims? i heard that theres a little population of chams in cambodia.

  • @Nakphimsombat yes,they are ethnic minorities now..the reality is that in ancient times before the arrival of austro-tai people from southern china, they are the original inhabitants of cambodia and southern vietnam.and I also believe that the Khmer and Cham people are one family, it's just khmer people do not speak Austronesian languages like cham people.Khmer people are very influenced by the culture and the language of Austro-tai, while the Cham people still remain in the Austronesian culture

  • cham muslims referred as Cambodian Muslims not khmer muslims.because most khmers are buddhist.but there are some khmer people who marry with Cham people and then converted to Islam, that is what they called as Khmer Muslim.

  • thanks for the info.  I'm Lao, so i dont know much about the Cham (or Jaam) people.

  • oh..?? i thought you are a cambodian.. !! ok,never mind..i'm Indonesian,and i'm a little bit knew about southeast asia culture.because we live in this region,and will becoming one in 2015 as southeast asia community.

  • indonesia is part of se asia. so you are considered as a southeast asian or pacific islander. i just look up cham people on youtube and watched a cham karaoke video and noticed that they have cham-khmer and cham-vietnam and they all seem to be muslim. very interesting.

  • yes,you are right..!! Indonesia (and philippines) can be both.being southeast asian or Pasific Islanders.The only problem is that now people will become a racist when he spoke in geographical areas.the pasific islanders of course not easy to accept Indonesia and philippines as part of them.because for them the Pacific islanders is what they call nesian (the island people).where they mean here is Micronesia, Polynesia and Melanesia.

  • so i think Indonesia and philippines better considered as southeast asian.because it is good for us and good also for them.Nobody feels offended or hurt because of this geographical area claims.and besides Indonesia and the Philippines are two countries initiated the establishment of ASEAN in 1967 (together with Malaysia,Singapore and Thailand).

  • vietpride247 aint viet.

  • @Vietnameze4Life, vietnamese who came from east asia is a lot of them live in the northern part of vietnam but not in southern vietnam.
