9:18 The United States bought the Philippines from Spain for $20 million (Treaty of Paris). Ironically, NO Filipino representatives were granted participation during the negotiation. so sad to think about the war negotiations during those times.
Why? You became part of the land of the free.
😂
@@Be-Es---___ Except Filipinos were discriminated and weren't really free back then. The US was just basically another colonizer replacing the previous ones
Why would there be Filipino representatives? As far as both the US and Spain were concerned, the Philippines was still under Spanish rule. The Philippines' independence was not recognized by either country at the time.
@@eatsmylifeYT but this isn’t what the American’s told them. They basically were misled to believe that they can gain independence which later was the reason there was the revolution against the Americans… it’s in the history.
Love it when these guys react to anything about Philippines, its people and culture😊 hi from Bella Vista Australia
B?
The Philippines has the most number of singers per square kilometer in the world, just an assumption. 😅😅😅
Why are guys mad at them ofc they'll be ignorant of many things they're not from the Philippines, and that's why they're reacting to these videos to be aware of the things about the Philippines and become less ignorant. Let's just appreciate them or respectfully correct them.
they aren't even reading these comments. how can we correct them?
balut is not for the faint hearted. it may not be an aphrodisiac, but it does help in keeping the beer flowing.
Some are incorect
sess! historian ka ba?😂
In Manila, Particularly in Arenas with high western population like Makati CBD and BGC, you will not be treated any more different than a regular folk as compared to the rural Areas where you will stand out no matter what you do.
An honest take, Manila is rarely visited by foreigners you only get to see plenty of foreigners in Cebu, Palawan, Siargao and in tiny Boracay. Those places do not care at all, opposite of what you think about Manila. Been to Manila, they care more about what foreigners think but if you go to Cebu for example, Cebuanos are used to foreigners that they do not care at all.
3:50 I'm guessing the answer is no, because some of the islands here disappear at high tide and reappear at low tide (so the number of islands also varies throughout the day lol).
Edit: Some islands cannot be easily accessed even by boat. You have to wait for the high tide to go to and from. These are areas considered geographically-disadvantaged because they have poor access to higher level healthcare.
The Ber months (starting from September) is when you start seeing Christmas items sold in malls and shops and you hear the occasional christmasy songs on the radio and a countdown of 100 days start. But that’s it really.
And the spider fighting is for the kids back in the days and still happening this days
Adobo is pronounced the same, whether spanish, mexican or filipino. The narrator did not do research on the pronunciation, he basically anglicized it with the short A vowel sound, heh. However, yes, the flavor profiles are different.
Don’t worry about the balut not everyone in the Philippines eat balut
Filipino adobo is a cooking process --original ingredient is vinegar (soy sauce was only added -and could still be an option in some variety of adobo) which preserves the meat without refrigeration... Can cook any meat or seafood and even just vegetable --adobo.
Adobo is from the Spanish word adobar. And it lasts for days.
fyi, do not to give your opinions on Philippines political matter. you have been warned
I hope you are aware that a lot of facts this Netherlandish TH-camr says are sensationalized incorrect. Example: Flores did not invent the Yoyo, perhaps he promoted and introduced it as a toy first time. The Yoyo is a very old traditional tribal Filipino weapon. Like a Boomerang of the Aborigines in Australia. But I love your inthusiasm and interest about our Country. Thanks for loving and promoting our country with such respect. 🙏❤️
MORE POWER
Some nitpicks:
"Baranggay" is pronounced /ba-rang-gai/, not /ba-rang-gei/ as the narrator put it.
"Islas" is pronounced /is-las/.
"Aguinaldo" in the Philippines is pronounced without the "u".
"Cordillera" in the Philippines is pronounced /cor-dil-yeh-ra/.
"Waray" is pronounced /wa-rai/, not /wa-rei/.
"Conyo" is not a real language. It is an insult towards rich kids who mostly speak English than Filipino.
The narrator said "adobo" wrong. It should be exactly the same as Mexican adobo.
"Princess" is also legitimate name for a girl here. haha
I suggest you react about Marcos
Filipino former US Army Pfc Thomas Claudio hailed from Zamboanga City who was the first Filipino soldier died in the Battle of Chatteu-Tiery in France during World War I. A street in the heart of City of Zamboanga was named after him to honor his service to the country and Zamboanga known as the Latin City of Asia.
53:13 Annulment is essentially declaring the marriage null and void. By virtue of it being an invalid contract, it would be as if you never got married. It's very expensive and is actually not a feasible option for majority of Filipinos. People just separate from their spouses and live with their new partners (if they have one) without ever marrying again (because they legally can't).
1. Coincidentally, my first job was in Manila City Hall
2. ...and I've seen that huge shoe for my self in Marikina;
3. Here's the correct pronunciation of adobo /ah-DOH-boh/
4. Balut isn't a dish but a delicacy
5 Our kids are tough and aren't scared of a few arachnids
6. The yoyo is actually a weapon not a toy. Whoever that guy is he didn't invent the yoyo since it has been used as a weapon for over 400 hundred years.
That one grinding/sharpening teeth is a big lie. I am 51 yrs old now but this is the first time I’ve heard that.
President Marcos have done so many great things for the Philippines ..the info about Pres Marcos has been distorted by his enemies so that the younger generation will not remember the greatness that he has done for the Philippines
IQ level = below 2 digits.
Give me 21 years of unchecked presidency, and I will build more infrastructure than all your presidents combined. It's easy. All you have to do is borrow all the money for it, claim all the credit as if you paid for it, and then let three generations pay the debt with massive interest. When my successors can't build anything because they have to pay off my gigantic debt, you will hate them and remember me as the best president ever.
Fact# 59 Markina City.. if you need a shoe they can custom built it for you.. + the quality will be on par with a branded one or even better,
like me who have big feet i need to go there for a custom build for american brands here are way too expensive..
Philippines has 7107 Island.That's what we learned in school.
I've to an overview of Taal crater lake before, but going down to the lakeside or Vulcan point isn't allowed afaik.
Especially since a recent eruption drowned Vulcan Point so that it's no longer above the water's surface.
gosh i never expected to have this much of marcos enthusiasts. i wonder where they got their sources for them to call him the best/great president 😂😂. some people are really easy to fool
Sorry but the Supreme Court already decided his case after more than 30 years..in fact, just last year..there was no ill-gotten wealth due to lack of substantial evidence..imagine submitting an evidence with no original copies and no strong evidence to back it up probably just to mar the image of the family, i wonder why the courts didnt reject it first hand..Juan Ponce Enrile also narrated every thing that transpired during and after Marcos Sr. Presidency because he literally became the "Messenger" of both Marcos Sr. And Mrs. Aquino..so far the Aquino family never contested what he said even in public..the Aquinos never even opened and really did an effort to really find the mastermind in murdering Ninoy Aquino in Tarmac even if the wife and son became Presidents of this country..they only blamed Marcos but never proved it..they just twisted alot stories to make Filipinos hate Marcos Family..But we see now that their narratives before are no longer being bought by alot of Filipinos and now we know which of these Political Families are nationalistic and has love for country and countrymen.
Nope they're not being fooled..they are just telling the truth..😂 search the youtube its in the news last years i think.. the Supreme Court decĺared Marcos Sr. Has no ill-gotten wealth finally after more than 30 years delay..imagine his opponents submitting photocopy of documents with no strong evidence..it shouldve been rejected first hand..took 3 decades of this kind of false accusations to mislead and make alot of Filipinos hate the Marcoses only to find out they meant well for the country..what a waste..look up also Juan Ponce Enrile's narration of what transpired during Marcos Regime and EDSA Revolution..also the Failures of 2 Aquino's Presidencies including the murder of Ninoy Aquino that they never put to justice, only to blame Marcos Sr. For it but never proved..Also, Mrs. Aquino never won an election, they just said she was cheated then executed EDSA revolution to bring Marcos down and she became the President but never did the Filipinos justice..instead, Philippines went down down down.
Bad details about Marcos ,..what would the pH would be if Marcos didnt become president
The money in the video are mexican peso😅not philippine peso😏😮
Philippine Eagle lays a single egg every 2 years. That's why killing it is really a no no!!! 😢
Liked and subscribed!
All of the islands, named or unnamed had been visited and being used but lot of them are so small that you have to bring your own fresh water… That’s one main reason why most of them are uninhabited…
You should try balot and you gonna love it.
As a filipino it is iligal to flip the philippines flag to red unless it was issued by the goverment
You mentioned adobo correctly, the speaker mispronounced it. 😢😅😅
Phil has a largest american cemetery in BGC & CLARK CITY were heroes of WW2 laid in rest here
Some information from the list are not quite correct but has some truth in them. Not really a fun fact but my brothers and I dabbled in spider fights 😅 We captured spiders in the wild and bred them for fighting. When it was time to let the descendants go, we carefully relocated them to where their ancestors were caught.
try to make a video of jose rizal you will be surprised of what he accomplished
43:40 i’ve done that spider fighting with my cousins when i was a kid. At dusk, we go to the farm to find spiders and put them in a match box. But when you wake up in the morning, you’ll find those spiders eaten by ants.
Spider fighting was very well known during the 90's and/or early. I was lucky to have experience this as a kid in the 90's. We normally find and capture fighting spiders at night using a flashlight to spot them as their web is reflective with light.
As the country is now starting to become more industrialize and with the rise of technology, I believe this no longer a thing at least in the major cities or maybe it already extinct.
alo alo 90's kid
Marcos Sr. is still the best president the Philippines ever had. Marcos Jr. could still tie with that distinction. The Aquinos and the Dilawan Party succeeded in ruining the Marcos name for some time. But eventually they proved themselves as fake and no sincerety in making the Philippines better than during the Marcos era. All bad things hurled against the Marcoses are now proven false, as all criminal cases filed against them here and abroad were won by them for lack of evidence.
Don't spread stupidity here.
All I'm sure of is that Thanos retreated to Banaue (Ba-na-weh) Rice terraces, the scene after the fight where he walked out a hut to watch the sunset, Avengers: Infinity War 😂
if you are going to the Philippines definitely don't go to Manila, it is quite literally a tourist trap even for Filipinos, definitely go somewhere in the Visayas or Mindanao region, guaranteed they have cities with less people than there are buildings.
You got that right! "Zoo is open!"
Adobo is pronounced the same way Mexicans say the word. The narrator on this video is mispronouncing it.
And I don't know when this video was created but to date, the Philippines have won 4 Ms. Universe crowns - Gloria Diaz, Margie Moran, Pia Wurtzbach and Catriona Gray.
Pls watch scout rangers training Philippines
Adobo is made of vinegar bay leaves crushed garlic cloves
Next time, try to watch videos of foreigners who visited and eventually loved the Philippines, who had first-hand experience living in our country. Rather than watching videos that lack research, I'm just saying.
I personally loved and enjoyed spider fighting as a kid and I am girl! I used to have matchboxes just full of spiders 😂 😂
They don't know about marcos so they better shut their mouth, 18 and 19 is INCORRECT PERIODT.
MAYA a small brown bird is the national bird
when mt pinatubo erupted everyone is running away from the volcano except my father who is running towards the direction of the volcano where the cemetery is located to burry my baby brother who died of suffocation. but nobody knew everything will be buried even the churches.
I eat balut, but don't eat the chick part. Only the yolk.
Spanish colonization only starts in 1565 when Spanish Conquistador Miguel Lopez de Legazpi who established Spanish permanent settlement in Cebu. Portugueze Explorer in the service of Spain Ferdinand Magellan merely rediscovered the country that had been long had trade and commercial ties with China in 11th century, it's neighboring Malay Kingdoms of what is now Malaysia, Borneo, Indonesia and as far as the the middle east countries by Arab traders who came to the southern part and brought the first organized religion-Islam. The term "discovery" by Magellan in history books is erroneous. The whole archipelago had been existent already since the 12th century. The whole of southeast asian countries the Portugueze and Spanish called as the Spice Islands, or the Moluccas Islands, are part of two Indian Empires, the Majapahit and Siri Vijaya Empires in the 12th and 14th centuries.
don't worry guys you will not be branded as persona non grata for not liking our "balut", me too as a Filipino took a lot of guts to try one😅
He forgot to mention the Philippine Independence from the U.S. on June 12, 1946😉😉.
Im a Filipina and Balot is not mine. hehehe!
the video should have included paulino alcantara and dado banatao
Poor people cannot afford annulments. It costs 3k USD to 6k USD, some can barely afford the cost of living let alone annulment. Tbh, I feel bad for the battered wives out there.
Gin is only outshone by Lambanog or coconut liquer
You can cook adobo it's very easy
❤i believe that video is outdated archeologicaly....❤
Your right about the Marcoses and they have lot of fans here😅 and their son is The current President. It's crazy haha
it's not Ah-dough-bowww but a-DOH-bo, with the stress on the 2nd syllable
We have also Beetle fighting 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆😆🇵🇭
20:50 Those skunks locally known as Pantot was the worst animal I have ever faced, it stunk like burned rubber tires mixed with spoiled milk, poop, durian, rotting dead animal and ammonia. The worst part is you could somehow taste it when inhaled. My friend's horse died because of one of these little fuckers.
43:38 You would be even more shocked to learn that some areas even inject their spiders with steroids in prep for a major fight.
correction: the monkey eating eagle is also eating small monkeys and small animals, the name is not a misnomer..
Aquino is a BAD PERSON NOT MARCOS
We in the Highlands weren't colonised by spain
Mabuti pa ang mga bansang halimbawa ng Alemanya, natuto sa kasaysayan nila. At hindi nila itinatanggi ang nangyari sa kanila.
I'm a filipino and I CAN'T/WON'T eat BALUT.. it's not for me , loool.. and the pronunciation of ADOBO is the same way you said Mexican Adobo.
Thank you for this reaction video.
Look up the Edsa People Power Revolution
Marcus is the best president in the Philippines
Nope he is not...
@@jackienangkil9275Of course he is! Your idols, the Aquinos or Duterte are now hounded with KARMA!😊
Hahahahaha. He's the best in terms of stealing.
Also, who is Marcus? Akala ko ba pag bisaya si Digunggong ang presidente? Hahaha
@@espiyaako weeee napatunayan ba?! Sori lang kayo losers hahaha!
Of course we have a zoo hahaha
One in Batasan, one in the palace, and one in Pasay.
During the time of Marcos, there are good contributes in the country and there are bad. The country was not perfect but during his time, Philippines was the 2nd wealthiest nation in ASIA. Japanese came over the Philippines to work because of the booming economy of the country.The poor people got a sack of rice every month.The poor people can live during that time.The country was developed during his time because of many projects that he implemented for the good of the nation. There are lots of foreign investors invested in the country during his time. I think the bad thing that he did was implementing the Martial Law and he wanted a long term in the government which is wrong.
There's a "Misinformation" category when reporting messages, btw. In case kababayans need it. :D
The people that grinding there teeth that was false, that was somewhere else Asian but not Philippines
Im a filipino but I don’t eat balut’s duck embryo😅 . Saying no is okay ☺️
Please React to Random Filipino who went viral on social media
Balut challenged, are you up to it.
Guys, just wanted to add that 1. according to a heavily researched fact by the “The God Culture channel”, the Ancient name of the Philippines was “Ophir”. Although it is said that Magellan “Discovered the Philippines”, this channel also has a topic on how, King Solomon in the Bible would send his ships to the Philippines and back, every 3 years to trade and in fact, the gold and Almug(Narra) wood that were used to construct Solomon’s temple were from the Philippines. 2. That due to colonization and hundreds of years of migration, there is no “typical Filipino looking person”, coz the Filipino is heavily interracially mixed. A few examples are the African American Filipino Cam Bynum of the NFL, Greek Filipino American Dave(Drax the Destroyer), MalayFilipino American Actor Jacob Batalon (Ned Leeds in “Spiderman No Way Home”), Irish Filipino American Filipino multi awarded singer actress Olivia Rodrigo(Song among others:Drivers License), Hispanic Filipino American multiple Grammy Awarded Singer Bruno Mars, English Spanish Filipino American Emmy and Golden Globes acting awarded Darren Criss “ The Assasination of Gianni Versace”.
Number 1 is highly debatable.
🤦
Many Filipino words (Tagalog words) were mispronounced by the narator, like adobo...
Almost 90% Christian that's why the Christmas is too long"obsession of faith God, even Three Kings are also celebrated 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😆😆😆🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🙏🙏🙏
Oh well malina has improved emensely that is not shown on this videos 😂
Yea. The Pepsi thing is BS. We still got the cap until now. My family was one of the people who rallied outside pepsi's gate. And for annulment? Whatever is yours, is yours. The only thing you're fighting is if you guys have a child or children or the court decided that you have to send money for your child. Something like that. Unless you guys signed anything before marrying.
I haven't heard about number 68 and some of his facts is exaggerated and not true😮
Some are “facts” are incorrect.
you can visit taal but depending on its activity. when it was inactive before 2020 eruption, there are trips on the caldera. the philippine eagle is bigger than the bald eagle. christmas season starts in early because the countdown of 100 days until christmas starts in september.
America is the one who educate the Pilipino people, unlike the connivance of Spanish and Chinese who are occupied the Philippine, and land grabbed the native pilipino land in entire Philippine archipelago,(1594/the construction of china town and the walled city of intramuros) these the reasons, Chinese and spanish become the wealthiest family in Philippines.
The details mentioned about President Marcos are mostly not true though..
It is in Philippine History. The whole world knows except you.
@@fujijitanikosLol the Philippine History is re-written, some history was shunned even to us filipinos. The world doesn’t know our history without a extensive research out of the book, get outta here and be realistic.
Don't spread stupidity here.
@@fujijitanikos history? kaninong history? yung sulat ng mga komunista? recall niyo mga naka sulat sa araling panlipunan na libro .. mga komunista sumulat niyan eh .. bakit hindi highlighted si magsaysay sa history? NPA ang mga sumulat ng libro after the marcos regime ..
@@kunarmakun793 hahahaha sorry for you. No matter what u say .. the whole world knows.
Thats w Pepsi is not selling in PHP aka #349 Pepsi Fever
i got that 349 cap from Pepsi worth ; 1Million, 100K and 10K each caps. but Pepsi just paid me 3K. huhuhuhu
Some of that video is incorrect 😂
We should report this video, so many misinformations.
95% about Marcos are false. As a matter of fact if Marcos stayed for about 10 to 15 more years Philippines would have been the richest country in Asia. Or as George Bush Jr. said the richest country in the world is Philippines. And he said it without stuttering. If you just dig a bit deeper you’ll know how they did the Marcoses dirty, I’m talking about a lot of politicians.
THEY MISS A LOT I CAN MAKE PART II
The video is westernized version and the visuals didn’t help, the pronunciation of things is so off that they should not be making “facts” that are half true. Some “facts” are outdated.
