@ibmojojojo I agree with you somewhat. I'm a visayan, and I don't like how Filipino's won't even recognize our Malay heritage. They Totally brainwashed by the spanish. We are muslim people who were forcibly converted! I took a genetic test, and I have distant cousins in Indonesia! I believe we are called visayan because of the Indonesian empire.
so like my family is mixed.. im hawaiian, filipino, and malaysian... isn't philippines a melting pot now with several different cultures and nationalities? Even though i grew up in the USA, i grew up seeing discrimmination to mixed filipinos.. just a thought... always bugged me though..
@OOHLALAAS its like forcing a tibetan to say that theyre chinese or a okinawan to say theyre japanese. i say im from the philippines, but i say im an indigenous person. there is no homogenous country/nation-state aside from small ones. nearly all nation-states are indeed complex and diverse. even here in america, pilipinos would say their pilipinos first regardless if they are 2nd or 3rd generation rather than saying their american even though many have never been to the philippines ever.
So if somebody asked you if you were Filipino, or from the Philippines, you would say no?
I think that is the reason that we're having problems in our country, because we do not consider ourselves as one people, regardless of our differences and we continue to divide ourselves.
@OOHLALAAS: my father is half igorot - ifugao & my mother is half moro - iranun. i am an igorot-american & a moro-american, or a katutubo-american. i dont consider myself a pilipino.
