- Indigenous people make up 2% of Taiwan's 23 million people, who were evicted from their land and banned from speaking their own languages. This film of the Thomson Reuters Foundation follows two indigenous communities to show how they are breaking the cycle of historical trauma, and reconnecting with their land and culture.

My dad (Paiwan tribe in Taiwan) really fought as well for the land .... indigenous ppl! Keep on going!
We're closes related bro.. I'm from Philippines, our land invade by cross breed european Filipino people :'(
So very sad our sacred land they destroy exploited our resources.. :'(
@@edwardmabilar4077 you're being weird, most Filipinos have no European admixture.
The KMT really screwed them up badly. Worse than any invaders in history. I'm a Taiwanese aborigine myself. Paiwan tribe 😉
President Tsai is part Paiwan and part Hakka, hopefully she will make things better for the aboriginals
Not only KMT, Japan, Dutch, Spanish and Chinese colonist starting several hundred years ago are all responsible. I am a Chinese descendant myself and our family had probably been in Taiwan for 300 to 400 years already. My grandmother used to tell me that Native Taiwanese were the true land owner and what our ancestors did was wrong and we had to apologize. This was even before 2000s. I am not sure how textbook is written now even though I saw the formal apology from the Taiwanese government a couple years ago. I might be wrong and biased but that's what I think. It's a shameful and dark history.
@@redcar9949 She look nothing like Austronesian, she look very typical Chinese.
@@jackjackyphantom8854 Hakka is a branch of Han, Of course she looks like Chinese.
@@redcar9949 she can start by sending all the fake Taiwanese back to China
Taiwan belongs to us Indigenous tribes we were here way before the Chinese stepped foot on to this land! Same goes for every tribe around the world!
It's very sad that even a lot of the older members of these Formosan groups cannot speak their native tongue fluently. The Sinization of the island is very successful BUT I feel so proud that they are more conscious of their identity and that they are willing to sacrifice everything to keep it. Mabuhay from your Austronesian brother in the Philippines.
yeah i think the issue was after the japanese expeditions in the first half of the 20th century against the native tribes they forced them to settle in controled concrete villages and forced them to learn japanese, when the chinese where handed over the island this system was in place and so the natives had no writing in their own language apart from the european missionary materials.
@@manchagojohnsonmanchago6367 the Taiwanese Aborigines have really been through a lot. From the Dutch to the different Chinese dynasties
@@doaa7941 this is the same for all asian aboriginals, the natives of north and south america were also replaced by whites and their black slaves.
before sinization there was japonization
@@doaa7941
you forgot japanese
Support native Taiwan's from Indonesia
Taiwan aborigines are the forefathers of austronesian people all over south east asia. Please treat them with respect.
As well as us Polynesians in the South Pacific. Love to Taiwan.
Very cool to see that native americans are related to Austronesian people , the traditions of respect and love for the earth needs to be kept 100%
@Yuno Spade Kingdom yes some south/central american we're , it's been confirmed in DNA testing that Māori people went to America , nowadays you see alot more European mix , take a guess why , but also there is old story's of people surviving the catacylsm and also other story's of new people coming to their land , the hopi propheti is a good story you can look it up
@Yuno Spade Kingdom and yes you are right some came from Siberia like you said , I am Inuit myself so I know and I have studied but we we're the last people to come to America by sea or by the bering strait , back then it was covered in ice , Inuits are most related to siberians and steppe nomads , but everyone is getting assimilated with the colonization it's sad , also in Eurasia alot of mix happened but we need to keep our tradition it's really important to not get blinded by the evil of capitalists
@Yuno Spade Kingdom now go watch "the Hopi Propheti" please
Kind of strange that these Taiwanese aboriginals formed the basis of the Austronesian peoples, who have been confirmed genetically to have sailed as far east as the Americas. Just goes to show how much we don't know of our extraordinary world and the ability of our species to overcome the impossible. I hope they can find their way in this ever changing world, and their culture be preserved indefinitely.
We filipinos love our austronesian family. Stay strong. mahal ko kayo.
Proud Paiwan here re-learning her language
Keep on going! Greetings from your neighbor country
Just keep on growing maybe someday things will change.
Independent for Taiwan 🇹🇼Indigenous peoples.
The way Austronesians are treated in Taiwan is very similar to how Ainu's are treated in Japan
sadly It's the same for all indigenus people around the world
You get into city's and the culture get lost every government system is failed
Ainu and Yamato peoples are actually related, they shares Y-haplogroup D.
no the ainu were totally crushed and destroyed by the japanese. in taiwan the aboriginies still have some autonomy and access to some land.
@@jackjackyphantom8854 not much relation. ainu are a different race.. when you see a ful 3/4 ainu person they are not of the same race as people from asia.. japanese share little genetic material of the ainu and are very close to chinese or koreans ..closer than an English man is to a danish man.
Support the amis of Taiwan!!!
🌳 Indigenous Peoples Worship Nature 🌳
Wow.. cant believe their cant speak their native language.. their should preserve that..
it depends the ethnic group and tribe, some groups speak their native language as their primary language others less so, also some groups were decimated by the japanese military and settled in controlled villages where their languages were outlawed leading to the adoption ofjapanese based hybrid language or tosituations where japanese replaced the native language in formal situations, all this within a single generation, when the island was handed over thethe chinese the natives were already in a system of harsh cultural oppression that targeted their language.
@@manchagojohnsonmanchago6367
even the japanese language is a hybrid itself -
before is: the chinese, now the english, maybe the korean in the futre...
Myself an indigenous tribe of mountain far from Taiwan.. hope we meet someday in our ancestors palaces.
What is the name of Watan Taru’’s restaurant?
why they are not allowed to speak with their own language? its part of their identity
Because the Chinese Government banned them from speaking their languages in public, such as schools. They were forced to speak Chinese, so there was a tremendous language loss, and now it takes huge efforts to revitalize indigenous languages.
In the past when KMT (a political party defeated by CCP and escape from mainland China in 1950) still ruled Taiwan at which there wasn't democracy as it is, they started a rule (or law maybe) like you can only speak mandarin Chinese in public, e.g. school , workspace...., at that time it was not just indigenous people who cannot speak their own language, even some Hokkien Chinese descendants like my family were not allowed to speak Hokkien language (which sounds quite different from Mandarin Chinese, if you pay attention) , many of local Taiwanese don't understand why KMT published that law in the past , to be honest , but it cause a lot of people in Taiwan lost their languages which is something politicians don't care about
Typical of Han. It's like they're afraid of indigenous speaking their own languages.
@@c98102060 Ya ,Tapi Tidak Bagi atayal ,mereka Adalah Bilinglual( mereka bisa berbicara Bahasa china dan Bahasa atayal)
@@metalalive2006 the KMT just copied the systemthe japanese had in place when they took over the island, the japanese linguistic and cultural oppression of thenatives was very severe
Hai from you austronesian brother from Borneo Sabah Malaysia....we pray and hope for the best future for original peoples taiwan... keep going
Good luck Sabah.

I searched Taiwan genocide, google/TH-cam gave me Chinese, Ruwandan and others. Of course not israel genocide of Palestinians. Searched Taiwan indigenous population and found this video aaaand its not in English. Since in reality Google is very tea-partyish can anyone recommend to me the best information on Taiwans aboriginal population decline (in percentage to total population) since the takeover of the ROC and the affect colonialism had on Taiwans native peoples. I would really appreciate it.
i dont know if there is much material, but in actuial fact the large decline took place during the japanese perion up until 1945, its more so that the chinese population grew rapidly under the japanese and with independence but the natives rapidly declined mostly due to military conflict withe the japanese and its effects and also many were pressedinto the japanese military in the war. the chinese nationalists persecuted the natives after the handover but this changed quite quickly for a number of reasons, mainly the natives are not chinese and are christians and so in a way are not likely to be supporters of communisimor agents of the communists where as many chibese in taiwan were/are. because of this the nationalists slowly granted the natives some freedoms, im sure the original plan would be to rob them of their land and settle chinese on it or just exterminate them, but with time they gained an important position in the nationalists plans on keeping hold of the island, if there was unrest among the chinese urban population for example the natives could be used to put it down. ect ect.. because of this the natves are rural and live in villages in the mountains ect in land surrounded by state owned forest so in a way they are less disrupted than they could have been.

modern society should include the indigenous tribe as part of the original population in Taiwan, its very very sad to feel excluded in society. I'm Chinese (Taiwan) decent mix with local tribe in Indonesia, my face look chinese with fair skin and to grow up in Indonesia where the majority society is not Chinese I felt almost the same like the indigenous ppl. During the 40's to 80's in Indonesia we were not allowed to learn Chinese or speak any Chinese dialect. We were all told to speak only the National language. Any other foreign language was not allowed as the local were scared of foreign infiltration in society. But now Indonesia is very open to foreign culture. Since the 90's ppl here start to respect each other races and decent communities. Hopefully will continue so. Respect and appreciate each other culture. Tolerance is the key.
Indonesia still scapegoated Basuki Tjahaja Purnama aka Ahok.
Btw, you are not Chinese (Taiwan). You are Hokkien, which is related to the people in Fujian of PRC.
And I'm Canto Chinese Malaysian, if you needed to know.
aboriginal taiwan cultures have been disappearing and their languages are becoming foreign to them.. sadly they dont sound austronesian anymore.
lucky unlike the indigenous under "the canadian" rule who are very limited
Aboriginals? Why are all of them speaking in mandarin?
Too much Chinese Influence, they’re not even a majority in their own land
Because that's what they were taught in school.
When Chiang Kai-shek invaded Taiwan, he slaughtered thousands of Indigenous Taiwanese. He got rid of their culture and language. They’re speaking mandarin because of Chiang Kai-shek influence there and they were probably taught mandarin from schools. It’s really unlikely that they would still known their native language today, since Chiang Kai-shek made sure that he eliminated native culture and language.
How many killed by Japanese whenever invasion! My Taiwan 😢 new people moved in or replaced from my homeland 😢
Taiwan is not Chinese,. Chinese is in china and Taiwan is Taiwan.
These people are Jarai ancestors
Omg they look so much like Filipino people from Luzon.
The Homeland Austronesian People
All Taiwan needs to do is to stop making the country a Chinese-only country, and as long as it persists, don't blame Taiwanese aborigines for declaring independence from the toxicness of ethnocentrical agendas brought by some Chinese. I mean no offense to Chinese peoples.
My DNA of course Austronesian because I live in Indonesia. 😊
If you are Javanese, you are not Austronesian. The latest DNA data research shows that people from Javanese ethnicities are not Austronesian.
Austronesia is not a DNA, it's merely a language family
@@LilibethLyka Austronesia is not a DNA, it's merely a language family
Both Austroasians and Austronesians are predominantly Mongoloids.
"Austronesian DNA" and "Austroasiatic DNA" merely refer to "DNA of Austronesian-speaking Mongoloid" and "DNA of Austroasiatic-speaking Mongoloid".
Austronesians/Austronesian-speaking peoples are genetically much more diverse than Austroasians/Austroasiatic-speaking peoples.
@@hanggaraaryagunarencagutuh7072 Austronesian is DNA as well as language
These people are like Maylay~ Polynesian~ A e tna bloodline strains😢😂
Formosans are North Austronesians.
Malayo-Polynesians are South Austronesians.
Gained the land legally with guns lol
Formosa should be return back to its indigenous people! Period!
America should be return to the indigenous people of America. Canada, Australia and New Zealand too.
funny thing is the KMT treated these groups very well.
It's the harsh reality to face, but fighting for independence is going to go down the drain at this point. Rising tension between the CCP and Taiwan is already growing; this sentiment of neo-colonialism through an economy war isn't going to go away, and like a lot of the Polynesians, land grabbed by the CCP.
Not their land
Im not sure if you are making a joke or not. if your going to say that Taiwan has been a part of China 'since ancient times' that's just hilarious. And total rubbish! like the CCP's claim to Tibet, Inner Mongolia and Xinjiang!
Looks like indonesian
East Indonesians can't relate.
