I’m in love with this channel. Why? Because it makes knowledge attractive. I always hated going to school as a child because no one ever made knowledge so attractive to want to learn. And that’s why we need more of this. Effort from animators to the voice of Xiao Chua didn’t make a single second of this video boring. It makes me proud as a Filipino, it makes me want to be a better Filipino for the world and I believe that we as Filipinos and The Philippines truly has something to offer to the world. Mabuhay tayo.
He was my history professor in college, and sobrang totoo, hindi ako mahilig sa history pero nung siya na ang nag turo nagulat din ako sa sarili ko na nakinig ako ng matiwasay sakanya. Sobrang engaging niya.
Same here. He was my professor in college at DLSU. He taught GE Rizal and made the class feel like an event you chose to attend. It did not feel like a requirement. The witty and smart professor makes the class feel like a talk show. Being part of his class was one of my core memories in college. This is one of the peaks of education. He makes learning fun and enlightening. This man will certainly bring back awareness to Filipino history.
he was my Rizal professor in college for a short time but I swear napaka-engaging sa class nya. I think even yung iba na hindi mahilig sa history makikinig talaga sa kanya.
My Philhis professor was like a drinking buddy, and he'd explain lessons in terms like it was a drink sesh. I learned so many eye-opening things that were too mature or complex to be taught in elementary or highschool.
The way he said "kagitingan" somehow makes me proud of being a filipino. I can see in his eyes how patriotic he is. Indeed, we are filipino so long as we are choosing to be a Filipino. Maraming salamat, Xioa!
Would just like to point out that the root word is "giting" therefore the word (and spelling) should be "kagitingan". Just correcting, no hate :) thanks for understanding!
Kaso sabi nya rin, we won the war against Japan with the guerilla. Nuclear bomb po ang tumalo sa hapon. Kung walang guerilla, layas pa rin ang hapon kasi nga, na-nuke sila. We won the war? Misleading yang historian sa video.
@@838WE7O6A gawa ka ng history video mo, wag ka dito dadada ng kabalbalan, mahihiya sayo mga ninuno mong nakipaglaban para sa Pilipinas o baka hindi ka tunay na Pilipino kaya ganyan ka?
@838WE7O6A we kicked out the Japanese in the country how is that not enough? That's already a defeat on their part, something they don'ttake lightly. And it wasn't like they could colonize us fully. They got a strong hold of major cities, the surrounding area of the capital, and other places in the country, but the provinces were filled with guerrilla groups. Like when the British tried taking over, they only took Manila and Cebu, but they claimed they took over the entire colony 😒
As a Black American man i want to take my hat to you and bow. Your eloquence, intelligence, clarity and warmth allowed me to not only enjoy the teaching but sent me back to the history books. And as listen to the truths you expoused, it could have also been a detailed historical account on the history the Black American nation and many of the mental, emotional and spiritual ills that affect the Black American nation until this very day. Keep up the amazing excellent work. Peace and Love.
And also encouraging us to be more FILIPINO especially now that colonialism has become more prevalent in the guise of consumerism. (Ex. Holliwood movies, imported brands, pop cultures like kpop.) Integrating those in our own culture aswell. We are getting further and further away from being a Filipino by consuming those and not patronizing our own.
Kung dumarami ka lng pag nababasa ng ulan, ilulubog kita sa baha. At ilalagay kita sa lahat ng paaralan para matuto ang batang pinoy sa inyong mahusay at klaro pagpapaliwanag. Mabuhay ka, ser Xiao!
I cried after watching this, i love what i am a Filipino. I am proud to call myself and the privilege of those rich & deep meaningful History thank you.
I rarely comment on TH-cam but this video made me realize why I love and will keep loving the Philippines. Hindi pa huli ang lahat para sa Pilipinas. Kailangan lang nating naisin, pagsumikapan, at pagtulungang baguhin ito para maging isang bansang mamahalin, ipaglalaban, at ipagmamalaki ng sinumang Pilipino.
Lagi kong naririnig ang salitang "kagitingan" ngunit hindi ko nagtabi ng oras upang pag-isipan at intindihin ang totoong kahulugan ng salitang ito, hanggang ngayon. Dahil sa bidyong ito, namulat ulit ako sa kagandahan ng ating kultura, na maliban sa ating konsepto ng 'pakikipagkapwa' na tungkol sa ating pag-intindi't pag-unawa sa isa't isa, mayroon pala ding 'bayanihan' kung saan tayo'y lumalaban ng sabay sabay. Nakakahanga, sa totoo lang. Maraming salamat Prof. Xiao, umaasa akong gagawa pa kayo ng mas madaming bidyo tulad nito upang maintindihan ng bagong henerasyon nang maigi ang ating kultura.
proud of what? be prideful if you contribute to something. Nonetheless, you are just taking credit for something you have no accomplishment too. proud of being in a group of people? a silly reason for being proud. you didn't earn it. you haven't achieved anything by being of a certain ethnicity. It was a random event. how do a nation’s history and accomplishments have anything to do with you?
@@mindtrick042710 Really?! If that makes u feel good, go ahead!! And i dont have any problem with u! But get a LIFE and be respectful, that’s the best contribution you can do.
Why is Philippines still in the middling of ASEAN when we were next only to Japan 50 to 60 years ago...politics...corruptiom...katamaran...kayabangan...colonial mentality?
Sana ganito ka-galing and ka-charismatic yung mga History teacher sa schools ngayon. I love learning bits of History of other countries and events from all over the world, but I never had the ounce of interest in knowing my homeland's long history. when he said about what being a nation is, it struck me hard. Thank you for your wonderful inights, sir!
True! Yung teacher ko sa history, todo pa-memorized lang ng dates and events pero di naman ini-explain fully yung ganitong klase. With Prof Xiao, your imagination will truly come alive. Sarap sigurado kakwentuhan everyday, madami ka talaga matutunan.
Ang ganda nung idea ng "hindi mo malalaman na captive ka kung di mo makikita kung anong itsura ng kalayaan". It took so long before filipinos had the chance to see how others outside the Philippines lived or even read about it. Nung narealize na ng ilan, saka lang nakaisip, pwede rin nating gawin yun (Revolution). Sometimes influence is only seen as losing your identity but it can actually be a good thing, an eye-opener
been a big fan of Prof. Xiao since his Xiao Time days, it was always his energy and wisdom resonating through his viewers. maraming salamat sa pagsisikap na ipalaganap ang ating kasaysayan, mabuhay ka Prof. Xiao!
Im an OFW and currently living here in the Dutch Caribbean Islands but videos like this make me miss the Philippines more but also be proud to say to other people that I am a Filipino ❤!!!! Mabuhay Pilipinas!!!
Filipino is a slave name.it was named after the king of Spain phillip who never set a foot in the islands.The name pilipino must be discarded if ever the people like to be proud of themselves.

@@838WE7O6A talaga? Ikaw anong ambag mo sa lipunan? If you’re bashing the historian, you better have a counter story. Let me hear your story, because there’s always two sides. What books did you read? I’d like to read it.
Aside from your credibility as a historian, you are a great storyteller, Sir! It’s my first time NOT to adjust the video speed to 2x because of my attention span in a longgg time. Galing!!!!! More videos pls!
If you need to speed up a 17 min video just because of your shortened attention span. No Hate but you need to work on yourself. Maybe try not using your phone for a day or a week.
I was moved by this video. Not only did I learn facts, but I felt a renewed nationalistic pride because of the understanding brought by that information. Thank you Prof. Xiao, and The Filipino Story!
Thank you for this. I'm a Pinoy, both parents from the motherland, but I was raised in Denmark. This episode made me tear up and it's EP001.. Can't wait to follow this serie..
This needs more recognition!! As a shs student and a Filipino youth we should know and learn about our own history regardless how many colonizers have colonized us but to saw the sacrifices of our bayanis for our country's freedom. This is too good that I watched until the end. I thank you Mr. Xiao and the teams of this channel, I hope that they won't stop uploading something quality content like this. For youth is the hope of our country. ✨🙏
All answers are acceptable and backed with facts. Salamat Mr. Xiao Chua for answering those FAQs regarding us Filipinos. Tunay nga na pag kilala mo ang sarili mo o ang concept ng "Know thyself" ay mas makausad, makaka-move forward ka dahil alam mo kung sino ka at kung saan ka patutungo. Muli, salamat po at mabuhay ka!
Filipino is not about blood. It’s about a community of people in the Philippines with shared culture and identity. So if you’re from the diaspora, having “Filipino blood” is not enough. You have to exert effort and enthuasism to learn what it is to be “Filipino” the way it is in the Philippines. You can’t be Filipino if you live, breathe, and sleep American (or any other outside nation youre from). It’s time to stop relying on stereotypes perpetuated within the overseas diaspora esp, Fil-Am community. Speak our language, learn our nuances, live our culture, experience our struggles and successes just like how we do it in the Philippines. That’s how you can have fulfillment what it is to be “Filipino”.
So very interesting, these are questions that so many of us Filipinos have thought about. Thank you Dr Xiao Chua. Ikinararangal kong ibahagi na Pilipino ako - kahit na mas maraming taong nasa ibang bansa. Ang anak po namin ay ipinanganak at lumaki dito sa Estados Unidos pero marunong ng Tagalog at kumakain ng lutong Pinoy.
This legend was my professor back in college and this is how he always explains with his lectures. It always feels like i’m travelling through time with the way he explains. One of the best professors I’ve ever had. He even knows where and what spot Jose Rizal got shot 😂 truly a living legend!! Mabuhay ka Sir Xiao!
Bani, Mai, Xiao, and all of the beautiful people working for The Filipino Story - bravo. I work in content, TV and Film, and it’s been a while since I watched a piece of media that is truly, TRULY, inspiring. I cried the first time I watched this, and I come back to it every once in a while when I need some kind of spark, some kind of reminder, some kind of flame. As someone who works in media, it’s easy to fall into a relentless pursuit of the next, biggest, shiniest thing. But everything here in The Filipino Story is as simple as simple gets. Simple, but unapologetic. Xiao’s poetry, the unapologetic Filipino accent, the unapologetic Filipino-ness - it fills me with much pride to watch and witness. Happy to help and support in any way I can!
Mr. Chua. Finally a history channel dedicated to Philippines. I'm an avid history fanatic - history buff to some extent but nowhere close to the knowledge I have when it comes to Philippines. Thank you for this!
Personally, as a former OFW, what I realized is having a different perspective in life(for example: being OFW or trading with foreigners) really broadens your point of view on your nationalism. Kapag dito ka lang kasi sa pinas, ang nakikita mo everyday is limited sa practices, ideas, etc dito lang sa pinas. mahirap ma appreciate yung mga lessons kahit anung nuod mo sa youtube kapag hindi mo talaga na experience na mamuhay sa ibang bansa or makipag trade araw araw sa ibang lahi. sana lang yung mga nag OFW ngaun marealize nila to na, holy smoke compare sa ibang bansa, napaka sarap padin mamuhay sa bansang pinas. What I advice is, especially sa mga OFW na gamitin nila yung ideas na natutunan nila sa ibang bansa and iapply nila dito sa pinas. para darating yung time na hindi na kailangan umalis ng mga tao kasi yung ibang lahi naman ang pupunta dito satin.
Finally, a profound, educated, logical and simple explanation of our history, sans political overtones! Thank you very much for your hard work and research! Mabuhay ka! 0:15
As an American who's deeply passionate about history, I'm planning to move to the Philippines, and I would love to contribute to your channel in any way I can-for free. I've been extremely blessed to be successful in my business career. I'm eager to teach both Filipino and world history when I get there because I believe the world needs to know more about the incredible culture and people of the Philippines. I’m driven by a desire to give back and to help share these beautiful stories with a global audience. It would be an honor to help promote Filipino history to the world. God bless! Salamat po ❤🇵🇭
Napakaganda ng nilalaman ng vlog naito, Nalalaman mo talaga kung sino ang Pilipino kung ano ang pilipino, kung saan galing ang pilipino at higit sa lahat kung papano naging isa ang pilipino.
1:34 I'm not satisfied with prof Xiao when he mentioned that we seek the good things outside of this country. Yes, it's part of our history and culture now to go abroad and come back with good yield but I think the main reason we do this is because of better wages and better opportunities. Wishing he could've follow up this in addition to his statement but I'm not disappointed. His historical knowledge is commendable!
Thank you much, sir. It always touches me to hear the kagitingan of the Filipinos especially in times of adversaries. It is not by blood, but your love for this country that makes one a FILIPINO.
A few takes. I would agree that Filipinos gravitate towards a person to push on an ideology. Jose Rizal and Ninoy Aquino were the faces of the revolutions that they kick-started. Many of the ideas that Duterte embodies gain momentum only when people have someone whom they can look on as the face of such ideas. However, the question on why Filipinos go abroad to have work is rather an economic situation rather than a cultural one. People are attracted to places that will grant them higher purchasing power. Some countries could have higher wages but higher prices of commodities. So a blue collar worker from a first world country might refrain from doing the same work in a third world country because the dividends are not beneficial for himself or his family. Thanks for the video and mabuhay.
Dito pa nga lang, ramdam mo na ang kolonyalismo. Wala nang nagsasalita ng purong tagalog, lagi na lang hinahaluan ng ingles kasi pinaniniwalaan natin hanggang ngayon na "mas matalino ka raw pag marunong ka mag-ingles." Ako rin, biktima ako ng ganyang pag-iisip. Pag nagsasalita ako ng tagalog lang, parang kakaiba talaga ang pakiramdam, para bang hindi tama. O sa wikang ingles, para bang "cringe" kapag nagtatagalog lang ako. Malamang may halong salita dito sa komentong ito na hindi tagalog, at baka ma-nose bleed po kayo kung ita-translate nyo ito sa hindi nakaka-intindi ng tagalog. Iyun lang. Sa totoo lang, may konting pride rin ako na lumaking akong filipino, dahil na rin na pinalaki ako ng mga magulang ng maayos. Cge, mahaba na rin itong tina-type ko at titigil na ako rito para mapanood nyo ulit ang video. Very insightful, and appropriate presentation of the filipinos. Thank you for making this video at mabuhay! Peace!
Mag-iba naman kasi yung purong Tagalog sa Filipino. Sa Filipino, pwede mong i-"Filipinized" yung mga salita wherein Tagalog would find a counter-part for that. That makes Filipino easier to use than Tagalog itself.
Hindi yan mapipigilan Kasi,Kasi kinoloniced Tayo ng ibang bansa,kaya nga ang mga salita nila especially salitang Spanish ay mahalo din sa panananita natin,at ganon din ang English mahahalo din sa pananalita natin,mas mabuti nalang Tayo Kasi,hindi lahat ng salitang Spanish at English ay sinalita natin Dito sa ating BANSA,Kasi ang pambansang weka natin ay pilipino or Tagalog.mas mabuti pa Tayo kay sa mga Bansang mexico or mga Bansang nandyan sa south America,Kasi pinatay nila ang mga native na mga salita nila,at hindi nila ginawa na national language ang mga native na language ng kanilang bansa,pinatay ng mga mananakop na espanyol ang kanilang mga native language,ANONG nangyari ngayon,Spanish language ang ginawa nilang national language sa kanilang bansa,imbis na ang dapat ang gawin nila na national language ay yung mga native na language nila.kaya sinasabi ko na mabuti pa Dito sa pilipinas hindi napapatay ng mga mananakop na espanyol ang native language natin na Tagalog or pilipino,Kasi ito ang ating national language or pambansang wika hanggang matapos ang mundo,kaya we proud US pilipino ..
@@user-yh4ee4is2r hindi man tayo pinatay ng tuluyan na halos maubos ang populasyon natin (wag kang magkamali, pumatay rin ang mga kastila ng mga naninirahan sa pagsakop nila sa Pinas), pero iba ang pinatay nila nang lumapag sila sa bansa at ito ay ang kultura ng mga ninuno natin. That being said, I agree with what this video is telling that the filipino is more about an idea than a specific point in history. (paraphrasing)
So happy that I came across Prof. Xiao's channel! I met him wayback when I was in college during the promotion for the Heneral Luna movie along with Direk Jerrold. Truly, his method of presenting historical facts is sooo captivating and engaging. More videos like this, Prof. Xiao!
Prof. Xiao makes History sounds more interesting and not just another workload na need imemorize. May dahilan ang ano sa alin. May connection ang ganito sa ganyan. Things have so much more sense.

He took so many years to acknowledge he bought into American propaganda about Emilio Aguinaldo and our other national heroes that was designed to quash/destroy nationalism just so the US could prime us for colonization. Xiao promoted their lies so much and by the time he came around to the truth and started backtracking, the damage had already been done. IMO he didn't try hard enough to repair the damage. It's sad.
Xiao bought into American propaganda about Emilio Aguinaldo and our other national heroes that was designed to destroy our sense of nationalism so the US could prime us for colonization. He promoted the propaganda for so long and so shamelessly, by the time he realized he was wrong the damage was ready done. IMO he didn't try hard enough to repair the damage or correct the lies he promoted. It's really disappointing. A huge part of our national identity died there and he should be doing more to uphold and teach the truth.
The valor of Filipino soldiers was seen again in the Battle of Yultong during the Korean War. The majority of the Allies retreated but Filipino soldiers hold and to stave off the invading enemy army. Outnumbered Filipino soldiers were able to cause significant casualties against a enemies superior army.
This is the channel that is worth subscribing for! Maraming salamat Sir Xiao! Binuhay mo at ng channel na ito ang pagmamahal ko para sa bayan at pagiging isang Pilipino. Mabuhay ka at ang Filipino Story Studio!!!! Sana ay dumami pa ang inyong subscribers! Godbless
More Prof! More power too! I have always said that any one who prioritizes the Philippines and Filipinos are the true Filipinos. It's why someone born in another country and has no Filipino ancestry, can be more Filipino than a local trapo who just prioritizes his own interests.
For the 1st question, pang Historian yung sagot ni Xiao syempre. The simple answer is because of the 60/40 Economic Provision sa 1987 Constitution. Tayo lang sa SEA ang may ganyan Provision kaya walang investor na pumapasok sa Pilipinas. Tignan niyo yung mga kalapit nating Bansa, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam & S. Korea. Ang daming trabaho dahil maraming investors sa bansa nila. Mostly factory workers ang kailangan sa mga nasabing bansa. Hindi kasi uso Economic Provision sa ibang SEA countries. PS: yung mga alipores ni Cory ang naglagay nung 60/40 na yan sa Constitution natin. Minadali kasi yung gawa kaya naging ganito lagay ng PH.
The 60/40 could have been a great thing if kasabay ito ng development ng industries natin noon. All East Asian countries and their peripheries has undergone the same thing. Di sila nagmadali mag-democratize kasi magulo yun pag di ka pa developed. Just take a look at the pathetic failure of a country India is. Anyways, what East Asian countries did is that they opted to tolerate a dictator during their developmental stages. Benevolent or not as long as effective. Doesn't matter if the cat is white or black as long as it catches mice. Basically, nag-sakripisyo yung baby boomer generation nila. Worked their fingers to the bone with the hopes na yung magiging anak at apo nila e makakaranas ng mas magandang buhay kaysa kanila. Their cream of the crop gets sent to Harvard or Oxford not to settle down there but to bring back home the know-hows. In the end, they've all been successful in developing their industries to the point that it can compete with foreign companies na gustong pumasok sa kanilang bansa. Unfortunately, hindi nangyari satin to. Like India, we've leapfrogged from an agricultural economy to service-based economy. We could've opted for manufacturing muna but instead we're so adamant about providing services which is will keep us poor for generations to come.
Then why other countries like Vietnam are still peogressing despite having economic restrictions? Makakapagnegosyo pa rin naman kahit 60/40. Ang problema yong korapsyon. Kung walang economic restriction, Chinese na magmamay-ari ng Pilipinas. Dumami Yong OFW nong panahon Marcos. Doon nagsimula yon.
@@DrewYourLover ano po economic restrictions ng Vietnam? Yes, pwede k naman mag negosyo sa Bansa, but what I'm not talking about is Investors coming in our Country. Sa Vietnam mayroong pabrika ng Northface na bag, sa dito sa atin sa PH, ano meron? Di hamak naman na cheaper ang cost of living sa Vietnam kesa sa d2 sa PH.
9:52 We were the traders. Not the Chinese. The Chinese didn't build their own trade ships until the Song Dynasty (c. 900 AD). We were the ones who sailed ships to Guangzhou and GIao Chi and on to Champa, Siam, Borneo, Java, Sumatra, Martaban, and South Asia. All the Chinese goods we have in archaeological sites prior to the Song were carried by our (or our neighboring SE Asian culture's) ships since at least 200 BC (like in the Butuan ships). There are ZERO Chinese shipwrecks in the Maritime Silk Road prior to 900 AD. Even after the Chinese built their own ships, most of them were near-coastal vessels only. They could only sail by hugging the coast of mainland Southeast Asia, not cross deep water (which is why the Yuan-era navies to Japan and Java both failed and sank from storms that our ships could weather easily). Chinese ships were based on flat-bottomed river ships, and thus were not suitable for deep waters with stronger waves. Even Zheng He's expeditions for example, hugged the coastlines. In contrast, Austronesian ships have always been ocean-going. Even medium-sized bangka (balangay) are capable of crossing large distances of water. It's how we settled Micronesia and Polynesia. It was only during the Ming, when the Chinese ships started integrating Southeast Asian Austronesian designs into their ships, that they became capable of crossing deep water. It also coincided with the fall of Majapahit, the suppression of most native SE Asian Austronesian shipbuilding by Europeans, which led to the replacement of most trade in SE Asia with Chinese (Hokkien) and Malay trade.

Prof Xioa. I think why modern Filipinos go abroad for work today is due more to economics. Walang magandang trabaho dito sa atin. Mababa sueldo kaya buti pa mag abroad. Mahina ang economy natin hindi kayang magbigay trabaho na madami kasi walang mga factories na madaming trabaho ma generate.
My great grandfather, Valeriano was the chief of police in Balangiga, Eastern Samar. He led and fought along with fellow Balangiganons for democracy against American troops (WW2) and they won! I graduated in college but that history I mentioned above wasn't taught at schools I've studied in my whole life. But there was only 2 teachers I encountered knows this history and I'm glad! They're even thrilled that I was the apo of my Great Lolo. I wished this was taught in schools too 😭
Love this. Philippines-born but raised in the US since the age of 1. Wondered a lot of my history and why we think certain ways. Your answers have helped me. Thank you.
@@TheFilipinoStoryStudio @XiaoChua two thumbs-up 👍🏻👍🏻 in explaining and answering the definition of a filipino. Eto ang napapanahon na dapat maipaliwanag sa mga karamihan mga pilipino na Luma at maling kaisipan tungkol sa dugo o lahi , kung ano o sino ang tunay na pilipino.
Boy, I'm glad the algorithm brought me here. Finally, I can understand our history better in a manner that is fun, quick and succinct. Looking forward to hearing more, Professor! I hated all History classes from high school to college but now that I am older and have a need to be grounded into the land of my birth and ancestors, this is great. Salamat po.
I may be just emotionally unstable but I nearly cried. It's so empowering to learn about our history and to have a sense of identity related to our homeland, it's just incredible to feel. There were so many things in our culture that was so forward and truly has heart and now I hardly experience such and I always look away from anything about filipinos being attracted to cultures besides ours because it seems as a nation we failed to teach that our culture is just as amazing and that we are more than just karaoke champions, boxing legends or a tourist trap. I should never have thought about leaving the country, this place was glorious and it still can be if we just work to make it so if only there where more people who share the same sentiment.
This is the best history lesson na narinig ko. Buti pa sa youtube kinikilabutan ako. Nung nag aaral pako kinikilabutan ako baka paluin ako kasi wala ako assignment nung 1990+.
Sir Xiao was my teacher for just 1 day on a field trip back in 2006 (iba kase nakuha kong propersor). Dahil doon sa random na coaster bus field trip na yon e mejo napamahal ako kay Andres Bonifacio at sa KKK. Magaling talagang teacher si Sir Xiao. Mapapamahal ka sa kasaysayan dahil umaapaw ang pagmamahal ni Sir Xiao sa kasaysayan.
I love that you acknowledged my province Bataan 🥹❤ we always get neglected in Philippine history, and sad to say many don't know where Bataan is. Thank you po 🩵
as an adult, it still gives me knowledge about Philippine history like a kid with all these simple explanations and stories with animation which really makes it exciting to watch. Xie xie Xiao for sharing your knowledge to everyone!!! 😊
Naalala ko lang nung nag trabaho ako sa Chowking Intramuros nung 2014 . Pumasok si sir xiao with a bunch of foreign tourist sa store, and me as a history enthusiast kilala ko si sir . Gusto ko mag papic sa kanya kaya lng nakaduty ako at bawal maglabas ng fone. Nalaman nya na gusto ko mag papic kaya tinawag nya ako tas gamit digital camera nya nag pic kmi . I didn't get to see the photo pero it was such a wholesome encounter with someone i look up so much . More power sir xiao and GOD bless you .❤❤
Thank you so much for this po. Hulog po kayo ng langit! I hope this video reaches more views because it's very well-deserved for us, Filipinos, to learn accurately of what our Philippine History truly is. Ang dami kasing nagmamarunong about our history, when in fact, it is coming from a foreign perspective haha.
I get goosebumps while listening. Sana mga history teachers po kagaya ninyo magdiscuss. I will share this video to my son pag lumaki na sya. He is half filipino and half ecuadorian. 😊
It's so heartwarming to realize that in this times where we could me angered by the chinese for their enroachment to our democracy and territories, there are chinese who also love our country. Mabuhay ka Professor! :)
Paumanhin po kung ako ay magiging “sentimental” sa comment na ito. Kung iisipin po, sa dami ng ating pinagdaanan bilang bansa at bilang mamamayan ng bansang ito, marami (kasama na ako ron) ay nahihirapan maunawaan, makilala, at maisapuso kung paano ba maging isang tunay na Pilipino. Pero napakaganda ng video na ito at salamat po Professor, dahil kahit papaano at napunan ang mga katanungan na kung sino ba talaga tayo bilang mga Pilipino.. Medyo “paradoxical” ika nga, dahil mahirap maging isang Pinoy, ngunit masarap maging isang Pinoy. Mabuhay tayo.
I always learn every single time from you Prof. so good to see that you have this show. It spreads knowledge and knowing our true identities as Filipinos. 👏
Can we have part 2 of this? Grabe sobrang galing ni sir Xiao sa pag-explain ng sagot sa bawat tanong, di ka mabobored. Bitin ang 17mins, mga 1 or 2hrs siguro? Yung mala documentary sana na format hahaha anyways, dami kong natutunan kahit maiksi lang. 😊👏👏👏
I’m in love with this channel. Why? Because it makes knowledge attractive. I always hated going to school as a child because no one ever made knowledge so attractive to want to learn.

The way he said "kagitingan" somehow makes me proud of being a filipino. I can see in his eyes how patriotic he is. Indeed, we are filipino so long as we are choosing to be a Filipino. Maraming salamat, Xioa!
Would just like to point out that the root word is "giting" therefore the word (and spelling) should be "kagitingan". Just correcting, no hate :) thanks for understanding!
Kaso sabi nya rin, we won the war against Japan with the guerilla. Nuclear bomb po ang tumalo sa hapon. Kung walang guerilla, layas pa rin ang hapon kasi nga, na-nuke sila. We won the war? Misleading yang historian sa video.
@@glenmacadaeg Yah, Thank you! I stand corrected. It was a typographical error. Funny dun pa sa main spirt ng comment yung wrong spelling haha.
@@838WE7O6A gawa ka ng history video mo, wag ka dito dadada ng kabalbalan, mahihiya sayo mga ninuno mong nakipaglaban para sa Pilipinas o baka hindi ka tunay na Pilipino kaya ganyan ka?
@838WE7O6A we kicked out the Japanese in the country how is that not enough? That's already a defeat on their part, something they don'ttake lightly. And it wasn't like they could colonize us fully. They got a strong hold of major cities, the surrounding area of the capital, and other places in the country, but the provinces were filled with guerrilla groups. Like when the British tried taking over, they only took Manila and Cebu, but they claimed they took over the entire colony 😒
As a Black American man i want to take my hat to you and bow. Your eloquence, intelligence, clarity and warmth allowed me to not only enjoy the teaching but sent me back to the history books. And as listen to the truths you expoused, it could have also been a detailed historical account on the history the Black American nation and many of the mental, emotional and spiritual ills that affect the Black American nation until this very day. Keep up the amazing excellent work. Peace and Love.
True. Some of his facts are universal.
When has this become a topic for Black American Nation? There are many Afrocentric "Historians".. Go ask them about your "History"
Does this give Filipinos the right to use the N-word?
I dont know why I almost teared up when Xiao said, that "we" won the war.
Me too.❤
We are winners. Period. Contrary to what we have grown up to hear from the west. It’s time he hear the truth and the beauty from our perspective.
Low self esteem?
We? You didn't exist back then...How can you, be proud, of that ?
Manahimik ka di ka naman kasali. Di mona dapat ginawa pinagmamalaki mopa@@lyndenmanning
he's not just teaching, he also entertained us viewers like a friend whose telling his stories.
And also encouraging us to be more FILIPINO especially now that colonialism has become more prevalent in the guise of consumerism. (Ex. Holliwood movies, imported brands, pop cultures like kpop.) Integrating those in our own culture aswell. We are getting further and further away from being a Filipino by consuming those and not patronizing our own.
Wala sa dugo, nasa pinipiling paniwalaan at panindigan araw-araw. Ang ganda. Mabuhay ka, Xiao.
This is the kind of tito na masarap kakwentuhan habang nagkakape sa terrace ng maulang panahon.
This episode should be shown in schools. Filipino History Mythbuster! Nice info. Nakaka-proud maging pinoy after watching this.
Kung dumarami ka lng pag nababasa ng ulan, ilulubog kita sa baha. At ilalagay kita sa lahat ng paaralan para matuto ang batang pinoy sa inyong mahusay at klaro pagpapaliwanag. Mabuhay ka, ser Xiao!
Tanong lamang, ikaw ba'ng nakaisip nito? At napakaganda ng iyong paglalarawan.
I cried after watching this, i love what i am a Filipino. I am proud to call myself and the privilege of those rich & deep meaningful History thank you.
This video is very clear, concise and easy to understand. Pag pinili mong Filipino ka pwede kang maging Filipino this is my take away. ❤
Thank you for this.
I left the “motherland” at 10 years old and now I have a half white daughter and would love for her to learn about our culture
I'm teaching my Mestisa daughters tagalog. Konti lang.
I rarely comment on TH-cam but this video made me realize why I love and will keep loving the Philippines.
Hindi pa huli ang lahat para sa Pilipinas. Kailangan lang nating naisin, pagsumikapan, at pagtulungang baguhin ito para maging isang bansang mamahalin, ipaglalaban, at ipagmamalaki ng sinumang Pilipino.
As a high school Araling Panlipunan teacher, this is how I aspire to be. Thank you for all your work Sir Xiao!
Lagi kong naririnig ang salitang "kagitingan" ngunit hindi ko nagtabi ng oras upang pag-isipan at intindihin ang totoong kahulugan ng salitang ito, hanggang ngayon.
Dahil sa bidyong ito, namulat ulit ako sa kagandahan ng ating kultura, na maliban sa ating konsepto ng 'pakikipagkapwa' na tungkol sa ating pag-intindi't pag-unawa sa isa't isa, mayroon pala ding 'bayanihan' kung saan tayo'y lumalaban ng sabay sabay. Nakakahanga, sa totoo lang.
Maraming salamat Prof. Xiao, umaasa akong gagawa pa kayo ng mas madaming bidyo tulad nito upang maintindihan ng bagong henerasyon nang maigi ang ating kultura.
❤
This is so touching, warming at nakakatalino! Thankyou po! Makes me so proud of my nation!
Thank you for watching!
proud of what? be prideful if you contribute to something. Nonetheless, you are just taking credit for something you have no accomplishment too. proud of being in a group of people? a silly reason for being proud. you didn't earn it. you haven't achieved anything by being of a certain ethnicity. It was a random event. how do a nation’s history and accomplishments have anything to do with you?

Why is Philippines still in the middling of ASEAN when we were next only to Japan 50 to 60 years ago...politics...corruptiom...katamaran...kayabangan...colonial mentality?
Sana ganito ka-galing and ka-charismatic yung mga History teacher sa schools ngayon. I love learning bits of History of other countries and events from all over the world, but I never had the ounce of interest in knowing my homeland's long history. when he said about what being a nation is, it struck me hard.
Thank you for your wonderful inights, sir!
hindi ata pilipino mga naging teacher ko sa history. ang dami pa lang mali na tinuro sa amin.
True! Yung teacher ko sa history, todo pa-memorized lang ng dates and events pero di naman ini-explain fully yung ganitong klase. With Prof Xiao, your imagination will truly come alive. Sarap sigurado kakwentuhan everyday, madami ka talaga matutunan.
Ang ganda nung idea ng "hindi mo malalaman na captive ka kung di mo makikita kung anong itsura ng kalayaan". It took so long before filipinos had the chance to see how others outside the Philippines lived or even read about it. Nung narealize na ng ilan, saka lang nakaisip, pwede rin nating gawin yun (Revolution). Sometimes influence is only seen as losing your identity but it can actually be a good thing, an eye-opener
Bayanihan is to act as a bayani, a courageous act, volunteerism for the common good. Bayani para sa bayan... bayanihan.
been a big fan of Prof. Xiao since his Xiao Time days, it was always his energy and wisdom resonating through his viewers. maraming salamat sa pagsisikap na ipalaganap ang ating kasaysayan, mabuhay ka Prof. Xiao!

Im an OFW and currently living here in the Dutch Caribbean Islands but videos like this make me miss the Philippines more but also be proud to say to other people that I am a Filipino ❤!!!!
Mabuhay Pilipinas!!!
I met professor Xiao when I was 18 in our school (in Mindanao), he was promoting their film GOYO, such a cool person!!
We need more videos like this. Filipinos need to know our roots and the colonization of our beautiful land❤. Waiting for the next one!

Maybe try not using your phone for a day or a week.
I was moved by this video.
Not only did I learn facts, but I felt a renewed nationalistic pride because of the understanding brought by that information.
Thank you Prof. Xiao, and The Filipino Story!
Thank you for this. I'm a Pinoy, both parents from the motherland, but I was raised in Denmark. This episode made me tear up and it's EP001.. Can't wait to follow this serie..
This needs more recognition!! As a shs student and a Filipino youth we should know and learn about our own history regardless how many colonizers have colonized us but to saw the sacrifices of our bayanis for our country's freedom. This is too good that I watched until the end. I thank you Mr. Xiao and the teams of this channel, I hope that they won't stop uploading something quality content like this. For youth is the hope of our country. ✨🙏
All answers are acceptable and backed with facts. Salamat Mr. Xiao Chua for answering those FAQs regarding us Filipinos. Tunay nga na pag kilala mo ang sarili mo o ang concept ng "Know thyself" ay mas makausad, makaka-move forward ka dahil alam mo kung sino ka at kung saan ka patutungo. Muli, salamat po at mabuhay ka!
Filipino is not about blood. It’s about a community of people in the Philippines with shared culture and identity. So if you’re from the diaspora, having “Filipino blood” is not enough. You have to exert effort and enthuasism to learn what it is to be “Filipino” the way it is in the Philippines. You can’t be Filipino if you live, breathe, and sleep American (or any other outside nation youre from). It’s time to stop relying on stereotypes perpetuated within the overseas diaspora esp, Fil-Am community. Speak our language, learn our nuances, live our culture, experience our struggles and successes just like how we do it in the Philippines. That’s how you can have fulfillment what it is to be “Filipino”.
THIS.
So very interesting, these are questions that so many of us Filipinos have thought about. Thank you Dr Xiao Chua. Ikinararangal kong ibahagi na Pilipino ako - kahit na mas maraming taong nasa ibang bansa. Ang anak po namin ay ipinanganak at lumaki dito sa Estados Unidos pero marunong ng Tagalog at kumakain ng lutong Pinoy.
This legend was my professor back in college and this is how he always explains with his lectures. It always feels like i’m travelling through time with the way he explains. One of the best professors I’ve ever had. He even knows where and what spot Jose Rizal got shot 😂 truly a living legend!!
Mabuhay ka Sir Xiao!
Bani, Mai, Xiao, and all of the beautiful people working for The Filipino Story - bravo. I work in content, TV and Film, and it’s been a while since I watched a piece of media that is truly, TRULY, inspiring. I cried the first time I watched this, and I come back to it every once in a while when I need some kind of spark, some kind of reminder, some kind of flame. As someone who works in media, it’s easy to fall into a relentless pursuit of the next, biggest, shiniest thing. But everything here in The Filipino Story is as simple as simple gets. Simple, but unapologetic. Xiao’s poetry, the unapologetic Filipino accent, the unapologetic Filipino-ness - it fills me with much pride to watch and witness.
Happy to help and support in any way I can!
Mr. Chua. Finally a history channel dedicated to Philippines. I'm an avid history fanatic - history buff to some extent but nowhere close to the knowledge I have when it comes to Philippines. Thank you for this!
Personally, as a former OFW, what I realized is having a different perspective in life(for example: being OFW or trading with foreigners) really broadens your point of view on your nationalism. Kapag dito ka lang kasi sa pinas, ang nakikita mo everyday is limited sa practices, ideas, etc dito lang sa pinas. mahirap ma appreciate yung mga lessons kahit anung nuod mo sa youtube kapag hindi mo talaga na experience na mamuhay sa ibang bansa or makipag trade araw araw sa ibang lahi. sana lang yung mga nag OFW ngaun marealize nila to na, holy smoke compare sa ibang bansa, napaka sarap padin mamuhay sa bansang pinas.
What I advice is, especially sa mga OFW na gamitin nila yung ideas na natutunan nila sa ibang bansa and iapply nila dito sa pinas. para darating yung time na hindi na kailangan umalis ng mga tao kasi yung ibang lahi naman ang pupunta dito satin.
The best history professor indeed. He was one of the most memorable teachers I had back when I was in De La Salle University Manila. Cheers Prof Xiao!
Finally, a profound, educated, logical and simple explanation of our history, sans political overtones!
Thank you very much for your hard work and research!
Mabuhay ka!

As an American who's deeply passionate about history, I'm planning to move to the Philippines, and I would love to contribute to your channel in any way I can-for free. I've been extremely blessed to be successful in my business career. I'm eager to teach both Filipino and world history when I get there because I believe the world needs to know more about the incredible culture and people of the Philippines. I’m driven by a desire to give back and to help share these beautiful stories with a global audience. It would be an honor to help promote Filipino history to the world. God bless! Salamat po ❤🇵🇭
Awesome! Hope you move goes well and thank for extending an offer to help! Feel free to DM us on ig at @thefilipinostoryofficial!
Napakaganda ng nilalaman ng vlog naito, Nalalaman mo talaga kung sino ang Pilipino
kung ano ang pilipino, kung saan galing ang pilipino at higit sa lahat kung papano naging isa ang
pilipino.
1:34 I'm not satisfied with prof Xiao when he mentioned that we seek the good things outside of this country. Yes, it's part of our history and culture now to go abroad and come back with good yield but I think the main reason we do this is because of better wages and better opportunities. Wishing he could've follow up this in addition to his statement but I'm not disappointed. His historical knowledge is commendable!
I love listening to you Prof Xiao. Your thoughts makes love to be a Filipino. Dignified.
The Filipino story really is fascinating isn't it..
Thank you much, sir. It always touches me to hear the kagitingan of the Filipinos especially in times of adversaries. It is not by blood, but your love for this country that makes one a FILIPINO.
A few takes.
I would agree that Filipinos gravitate towards a person to push on an ideology. Jose Rizal and Ninoy Aquino were the faces of the revolutions that they kick-started. Many of the ideas that Duterte embodies gain momentum only when people have someone whom they can look on as the face of such ideas.
However, the question on why Filipinos go abroad to have work is rather an economic situation rather than a cultural one. People are attracted to places that will grant them higher purchasing power. Some countries could have higher wages but higher prices of commodities. So a blue collar worker from a first world country might refrain from doing the same work in a third world country because the dividends are not beneficial for himself or his family.
Thanks for the video and mabuhay.
Simply amazing. You make us love being Pilipino... Mapanood po sana kayo ng lahat ng mga kababayan lalo ng mga kabataan...
kabataan natin...
Dito pa nga lang, ramdam mo na ang kolonyalismo. Wala nang nagsasalita ng purong tagalog, lagi na lang hinahaluan ng ingles kasi pinaniniwalaan natin hanggang ngayon na "mas matalino ka raw pag marunong ka mag-ingles." Ako rin, biktima ako ng ganyang pag-iisip. Pag nagsasalita ako ng tagalog lang, parang kakaiba talaga ang pakiramdam, para bang hindi tama. O sa wikang ingles, para bang "cringe" kapag nagtatagalog lang ako.
Malamang may halong salita dito sa komentong ito na hindi tagalog, at baka ma-nose bleed po kayo kung ita-translate nyo ito sa hindi nakaka-intindi ng tagalog.
Iyun lang. Sa totoo lang, may konting pride rin ako na lumaking akong filipino, dahil na rin na pinalaki ako ng mga magulang ng maayos.
Cge, mahaba na rin itong tina-type ko at titigil na ako rito para mapanood nyo ulit ang video. Very insightful, and appropriate presentation of the filipinos. Thank you for making this video at mabuhay!
Peace!
Mag-iba naman kasi yung purong Tagalog sa Filipino. Sa Filipino, pwede mong i-"Filipinized" yung mga salita wherein Tagalog would find a counter-part for that. That makes Filipino easier to use than Tagalog itself.
Hindi yan mapipigilan Kasi,Kasi kinoloniced Tayo ng ibang bansa,kaya nga ang mga salita nila especially salitang Spanish ay mahalo din sa panananita natin,at ganon din ang English mahahalo din sa pananalita natin,mas mabuti nalang Tayo Kasi,hindi lahat ng salitang Spanish at English ay sinalita natin Dito sa ating BANSA,Kasi ang pambansang weka natin ay pilipino or Tagalog.mas mabuti pa Tayo kay sa mga Bansang mexico or mga Bansang nandyan sa south America,Kasi pinatay nila ang mga native na mga salita nila,at hindi nila ginawa na national language ang mga native na language ng kanilang bansa,pinatay ng mga mananakop na espanyol ang kanilang mga native language,ANONG nangyari ngayon,Spanish language ang ginawa nilang national language sa kanilang bansa,imbis na ang dapat ang gawin nila na national language ay yung mga native na language nila.kaya sinasabi ko na mabuti pa Dito sa pilipinas hindi napapatay ng mga mananakop na espanyol ang native language natin na Tagalog or pilipino,Kasi ito ang ating national language or pambansang wika hanggang matapos ang mundo,kaya we proud US pilipino ..
@@user-yh4ee4is2r hindi man tayo pinatay ng tuluyan na halos maubos ang populasyon natin (wag kang magkamali, pumatay rin ang mga kastila ng mga naninirahan sa pagsakop nila sa Pinas), pero iba ang pinatay nila nang lumapag sila sa bansa at ito ay ang kultura ng mga ninuno natin.
That being said, I agree with what this video is telling that the filipino is more about an idea than a specific point in history. (paraphrasing)
So happy that I came across Prof. Xiao's channel! I met him wayback when I was in college during the promotion for the Heneral Luna movie along with Direk Jerrold. Truly, his method of presenting historical facts is sooo captivating and engaging. More videos like this, Prof. Xiao!
I just stumbled upon this channel and this is so giving WIRED Ask an Expert vibes! Subbed!
Prof. Xiao makes History sounds more interesting and not just another workload na need imemorize. May dahilan ang ano sa alin. May connection ang ganito sa ganyan. Things have so much more sense.

He took so many years to acknowledge he bought into American propaganda about Emilio Aguinaldo and our other national heroes that was designed to quash/destroy nationalism just so the US could prime us for colonization. Xiao promoted their lies so much and by the time he came around to the truth and started backtracking, the damage had already been done. IMO he didn't try hard enough to repair the damage. It's sad.
Xiao bought into American propaganda about Emilio Aguinaldo and our other national heroes that was designed to destroy our sense of nationalism so the US could prime us for colonization. He promoted the propaganda for so long and so shamelessly, by the time he realized he was wrong the damage was ready done. IMO he didn't try hard enough to repair the damage or correct the lies he promoted. It's really disappointing. A huge part of our national identity died there and he should be doing more to uphold and teach the truth.

The valor of Filipino soldiers was seen again in the Battle of Yultong during the Korean War. The majority of the Allies retreated but Filipino soldiers hold and to stave off the invading enemy army. Outnumbered Filipino soldiers were able to cause significant casualties against a enemies superior army.

2:30 Professor Xiao Chua, what about the impact of the Labor Export Policy on the steady migration of Filipinos into the diaspora?
More Prof! More power too! I have always said that any one who prioritizes the Philippines and Filipinos are the true Filipinos. It's why someone born in another country and has no Filipino ancestry, can be more Filipino than a local trapo who just prioritizes his own interests.
For the 1st question, pang Historian yung sagot ni Xiao syempre.
The simple answer is because of the 60/40 Economic Provision sa 1987 Constitution. Tayo lang sa SEA ang may ganyan Provision kaya walang investor na pumapasok sa Pilipinas.
Tignan niyo yung mga kalapit nating Bansa, Singapore, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam & S. Korea.
Ang daming trabaho dahil maraming investors sa bansa nila.
Mostly factory workers ang kailangan sa mga nasabing bansa.
Hindi kasi uso Economic Provision sa ibang SEA countries.
PS: yung mga alipores ni Cory ang naglagay nung 60/40 na yan sa Constitution natin. Minadali kasi yung gawa kaya naging ganito lagay ng PH.
The 60/40 could have been a great thing if kasabay ito ng development ng industries natin noon. All East Asian countries and their peripheries has undergone the same thing. Di sila nagmadali mag-democratize kasi magulo yun pag di ka pa developed. Just take a look at the pathetic failure of a country India is. Anyways, what East Asian countries did is that they opted to tolerate a dictator during their developmental stages. Benevolent or not as long as effective. Doesn't matter if the cat is white or black as long as it catches mice. Basically, nag-sakripisyo yung baby boomer generation nila. Worked their fingers to the bone with the hopes na yung magiging anak at apo nila e makakaranas ng mas magandang buhay kaysa kanila. Their cream of the crop gets sent to Harvard or Oxford not to settle down there but to bring back home the know-hows.
In the end, they've all been successful in developing their industries to the point that it can compete with foreign companies na gustong pumasok sa kanilang bansa. Unfortunately, hindi nangyari satin to. Like India, we've leapfrogged from an agricultural economy to service-based economy. We could've opted for manufacturing muna but instead we're so adamant about providing services which is will keep us poor for generations to come.
Then why other countries like Vietnam are still peogressing despite having economic restrictions?
Makakapagnegosyo pa rin naman kahit 60/40. Ang problema yong korapsyon.
Kung walang economic restriction, Chinese na magmamay-ari ng Pilipinas.
Dumami Yong OFW nong panahon Marcos. Doon nagsimula yon.
@@DrewYourLover ano po economic restrictions ng Vietnam?
Yes, pwede k naman mag negosyo sa Bansa, but what I'm not talking about is Investors coming in our Country.
Sa Vietnam mayroong pabrika ng Northface na bag, sa dito sa atin sa PH, ano meron?
Di hamak naman na cheaper ang cost of living sa Vietnam kesa sa d2 sa PH.
Grabe nakaka-enganyo yung explanation, gusto ko na matulog pero di ako maka-alis, gusto kong tapusin ✨✨
9:52 We were the traders. Not the Chinese. The Chinese didn't build their own trade ships until the Song Dynasty (c. 900 AD). We were the ones who sailed ships to Guangzhou and GIao Chi and on to Champa, Siam, Borneo, Java, Sumatra, Martaban, and South Asia. All the Chinese goods we have in archaeological sites prior to the Song were carried by our (or our neighboring SE Asian culture's) ships since at least 200 BC (like in the Butuan ships). There are ZERO Chinese shipwrecks in the Maritime Silk Road prior to 900 AD.
Even after the Chinese built their own ships, most of them were near-coastal vessels only. They could only sail by hugging the coast of mainland Southeast Asia, not cross deep water (which is why the Yuan-era navies to Japan and Java both failed and sank from storms that our ships could weather easily). Chinese ships were based on flat-bottomed river ships, and thus were not suitable for deep waters with stronger waves. Even Zheng He's expeditions for example, hugged the coastlines. In contrast, Austronesian ships have always been ocean-going. Even medium-sized bangka (balangay) are capable of crossing large distances of water. It's how we settled Micronesia and Polynesia.
It was only during the Ming, when the Chinese ships started integrating Southeast Asian Austronesian designs into their ships, that they became capable of crossing deep water. It also coincided with the fall of Majapahit, the suppression of most native SE Asian Austronesian shipbuilding by Europeans, which led to the replacement of most trade in SE Asia with Chinese (Hokkien) and Malay trade.

Prof Xioa. I think why modern Filipinos go abroad for work today is due more to economics. Walang magandang trabaho dito sa atin. Mababa sueldo kaya buti pa mag abroad. Mahina ang economy natin hindi kayang magbigay trabaho na madami kasi walang mga factories na madaming trabaho ma generate.
I think it is because some people want more
the last question left my eyes almost welling tears, it struck a chord, beautifully explained sir! maraming salamat!

Thank you for your question!

My great grandfather, Valeriano was the chief of police in Balangiga, Eastern Samar. He led and fought along with fellow Balangiganons for democracy against American troops (WW2) and they won!
I graduated in college but that history I mentioned above wasn't taught at schools I've studied in my whole life. But there was only 2 teachers I encountered knows this history and I'm glad! They're even thrilled that I was the apo of my Great Lolo. I wished this was taught in schools too 😭
salamat tito Xiao, naparamdam mo sa akin na maging proud bilang Pilipino!
Thank you so much. I’ve learned more reasons why I should be very proud when I tell other races- I AM FILIPINO.
Our culture is beautiful! Same as the people and places! Thank you for the feedback!
Nakaka proud maging pilipino kasi makinang ang ating history puno ng aral ng kabayanihan

@@TheFilipinoStoryStudio @XiaoChua two thumbs-up 👍🏻👍🏻 in explaining and answering the definition of a filipino. Eto ang napapanahon na dapat maipaliwanag sa mga karamihan mga pilipino na Luma at maling kaisipan tungkol sa dugo o lahi , kung ano o sino ang tunay na pilipino.
Boy, I'm glad the algorithm brought me here. Finally, I can understand our history better in a manner that is fun, quick and succinct. Looking forward to hearing more, Professor! I hated all History classes from high school to college but now that I am older and have a need to be grounded into the land of my birth and ancestors, this is great. Salamat po.
I may be just emotionally unstable but I nearly cried. It's so empowering to learn about our history and to have a sense of identity related to our homeland, it's just incredible to feel. There were so many things in our culture that was so forward and truly has heart and now I hardly experience such and I always look away from anything about filipinos being attracted to cultures besides ours because it seems as a nation we failed to teach that our culture is just as amazing and that we are more than just karaoke champions, boxing legends or a tourist trap. I should never have thought about leaving the country, this place was glorious and it still can be if we just work to make it so if only there where more people who share the same sentiment.
Ang galing nyo! Ang dami ko pong natutunan in just over 17 minutes. Maraming salamat po!!
This is the best history lesson na narinig ko. Buti pa sa youtube kinikilabutan ako. Nung nag aaral pako kinikilabutan ako baka paluin ako kasi wala ako assignment nung 1990+.
Sir Xiao was my teacher for just 1 day on a field trip back in 2006 (iba kase nakuha kong propersor).

I love that you acknowledged my province Bataan 🥹❤ we always get neglected in Philippine history, and sad to say many don't know where Bataan is. Thank you po 🩵
What? Bataan is very important part of WWII history in the Philippines. Did you read your history at all?
@@lilybethmcgrath1280 read my statement again. 😪
as an adult, it still gives me knowledge about Philippine history like a kid with all these simple explanations and stories with animation which really makes it exciting to watch. Xie xie Xiao for sharing your knowledge to everyone!!! 😊
Broooo I teared up when he said “Kagitingan” Im always one proud Filipino 💯 at lagi kitang pipiliin Pilipinas 🇵🇭
Naalala ko lang nung nag trabaho ako sa Chowking Intramuros nung 2014 . Pumasok si sir xiao with a bunch of foreign tourist sa store, and me as a history enthusiast kilala ko si sir . Gusto ko mag papic sa kanya kaya lng nakaduty ako at bawal maglabas ng fone. Nalaman nya na gusto ko mag papic kaya tinawag nya ako tas gamit digital camera nya nag pic kmi . I didn't get to see the photo pero it was such a wholesome encounter with someone i look up so much . More power sir xiao and GOD bless you .❤❤
Better lecture than Iglesia ni Cristo. Salamat po from USA!
Thank you so much for this po. Hulog po kayo ng langit! I hope this video reaches more views because it's very well-deserved for us, Filipinos, to learn accurately of what our Philippine History truly is. Ang dami kasing nagmamarunong about our history, when in fact, it is coming from a foreign perspective haha.
I will always choose to be a Filipino! Thanks for this Sir Xiao!
Ang puso ko LOL
"Aling pag-ibig pa ang hihigit kaya
Sa pagkadalisay at pagkadakila”
I get goosebumps while listening. Sana mga history teachers po kagaya ninyo magdiscuss. I will share this video to my son pag lumaki na sya. He is half filipino and half ecuadorian. 😊
It's so heartwarming to realize that in this times where we could me angered by the chinese for their enroachment to our democracy and territories, there are chinese who also love our country. Mabuhay ka Professor! :)
Paumanhin po kung ako ay magiging “sentimental” sa comment na ito. Kung iisipin po, sa dami ng ating pinagdaanan bilang bansa at bilang mamamayan ng bansang ito, marami (kasama na ako ron) ay nahihirapan maunawaan, makilala, at maisapuso kung paano ba maging isang tunay na Pilipino. Pero napakaganda ng video na ito at salamat po Professor, dahil kahit papaano at napunan ang mga katanungan na kung sino ba talaga tayo bilang mga Pilipino.. Medyo “paradoxical” ika nga, dahil mahirap maging isang Pinoy, ngunit masarap maging isang Pinoy. Mabuhay tayo.
You are a true scholar and a gentleman. Thank you!
I always learn every single time from you Prof. so good to see that you have this show. It spreads knowledge and knowing our true identities as Filipinos. 👏
Can we have part 2 of this? Grabe sobrang galing ni sir Xiao sa pag-explain ng sagot sa bawat tanong, di ka mabobored. Bitin ang 17mins, mga 1 or 2hrs siguro? Yung mala documentary sana na format hahaha anyways, dami kong natutunan kahit maiksi lang. 😊👏👏👏
i could listen to this guy all day
I appreciate everyone behind this studio and this video!!!
