@francisceno1976 I hate it when someone who harp about having foreign blood go about calling a native "Indio". Chinos are the lowest class in Spanish era Philippines, let me remind you that. Lower than Indios (and you thought it can't get any lower than that) Remember the lines in Noli Me Tangere when Ibarra's body was exhumed and the people chose to dump it on the river than be buried in a Chinese cemetery.

@francisceno1976 You also forgot the Huk/Morro war. Not to mention at Yuldong, the 10th were on "Death Ground", thus motivating them to fight to the last man!

@francisceno1976 During the Spanish Era, the name "Filipino" ONLY and STRICTLY referred to the Spanish Insulares or Spaniards born en La Islas Filipinas. "Indios" (Man of the East) referred to all Asian people but mostly to Malays. Chinese were called Chinos and their halfbreeds were "Sangleys". When the Americans freed us from Spain, ALL peoples in the Philippine Islands were declared FILIPINO regardless of race. So let's stop this old issue about being Chinoy or Pinoy and be just Filipinos.
