ehh... after the arrival of the aboriginal filipinos were the proto-malays, which originated from the yunnan plateau in china. so yea filipinos came from china.

however, this was AGES ago. the languages and cultures of both countries have differentiated greatly.

i think you were referring to mongoloid not chinese. chinese is not a race it is an ethnic group and the chinese were still evolving that time when the mongoloids landed in the philippines.

negroid(negrito) + mongoloid + little bit of caucasian = pilipino.

UMM... 2

If you're a tsinoy, your ancestors definitely came from China

BTW, how the hell do you interpret those pie graphs. I'm so clueless

Little bit of caucasian? You arent referring to the Spanish are you? Reasons being is that a lot of Filipinos aren't even Spanish, they just adopted their surnames for various reasons.

And how is it that Filipinos are also Negrito?

Filipinos = Malay

Same as with Thailand and all the other Malay countries in the Malay Archipelago.

i was referring to mexican spanish. i believe that not all filipinos have spanish blood but in my family tree, i was able to trace my ancestry and i really have a grandfather from mexico who probably have spanish blood. there was a time in since the 15th century there where some 200000 filipinos went to mexico and some of the mexicans went to the philippines and i dont know how many. my friend also who is a filipino have mexican ancestors also.

the philippines have corn but it really it came from mexico and philippines and mexicans have similar cultures and we also have the same currency the peso so the philippines and mexicans are really connected.

I don't mean to sound condescending, but I am just giving input.

First of all, the Peso was created by the Spaniards in the Spanish Empire. Mexico isn't the only country that uses Peso, a lot of coutries in South America do too. So using that as a bond really isn't helpful, since more than just Mexicans use it, and it was a creation by the Spaniards.

I do know that it was the Spanish Mexicans that went to the Phillipines though. Never heard of the Filipinos going to Mexico, this is the first time I have. I have heard of Germans, as I had a friend that was German/Mexican, since his grandparents came from WWII Germany.

well,pinoys and sundic malays originated in the malay archipelago the pinoys ancestors remained in the northeast of the malay archpelago and descended from those ancestors are the ethnolingustic groups of the philippines while the ancestors of the sundic malays continued to indonesia and the ancestors of borneans(inc. malagassy) are much
closely related with the ancestors of the filipinos than the sundic malays.

austronesians as a whole came from fujian,china/taiwan in the ancient territory of the southeners/yue/austrics.

ham_let came from china `_´


lol

The only reason you go around starting these obviously offensive threats to other groups is because you want everybody on this site to hate the chinese people but I see through your little game. Get a life you little queer your probably a non chinese disguised as one going around trying to give us a bad name.

can someone close this thread plz?

No, Filipinos come from the Philippines

Thailand? Thailand is only 2.3% Malay, Madagascar would be a better choice

& @martin nuke Negritos arent negroids

O ya man, sorry about that one. The Malays in south of Thailand. I used to be under the impression that Thailand was all Malays until I researched it a couple of days ago. Thanks for the correction.


BTW, isn't Madagascar where there is civil war between the indigenous people of the country and the malays there?

Please ignore Newasian, he's Vietnamese

Never heard of the Civil War

Anyways, The Malays are the aboriginal people of Madagascar. The Island of Madagascar is uninhabited before the Malay Seafarers arrived about 2,000 years ago & the East Africans just came later, some through slavery.

that i did.

`_your relatives work for my relatives_´



LMAO j/k. i jsut had to.

Man I got schooled once again 2

I was under the impression that Madagascar was first inhabited by Africans and then the Indonesians, at least thats what a friend told me. I just checked it up right now and you were right. Thanks!

But ya there is a war between the two of them, some pretty violent stuff too like getting cut up and all. I forgot the article that I read but ya, it's going on because of Political issues.

EDIT: Wow some of them look Polynesian too. I never bothered looking at the people but some of them do like Polys to me. Guess its because some of them mixed same as the Malays and the Melanesians did so long ago. Pretty cool

°_my relatives kidnapped your relatives_°

lmao!

in fact the filipnos played a big part in mexican history.

http://www.ezilon.com/cgi-bin/information/...chive=1&num=476

in louisiana there where filipinos who helped the americans beat the british in the new orleans war. the filipinos in southern united states are called the spanish speaking fishermen and they even introduced the bahay kubo in that area.

by the way why in the hawaiian flag british not american? i thought hawaii is an american state.

NO THAIS ARE NOT MALAY!!!!!!!!

Wow thats Crazy, I didn't know that the Filipinos came to the US back then too. I know that the huge influx of Filipinos came via Plantations in Hawaii due to the ban on Chinese.

As for the Hawaiian flag, it was created because of the British. Hawaii and Britain had things goin on with each other which was before the US actually stole Hawaii away. Theres different accounts as to how it came to be, but basically Hawaii had something goin on with Britain so that's why the Union Jack is on the Upper left.

.

In southern Thailand, not all of Thailand.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malay_people

Kollision right we are learning new things. Seen shows on Madagascar and the ppl seemed diff. when compared to mainland Africans. Didn't know about the Malayan-Indon. connection. Found out rice first taken to Madagascar by Malayan. American pirates centuries later took Malagasy rice to South Carolina.

Southern thailand is not mainstream thailand! And not all southern thais are malay; many are mixed and many are ethnic chinese or ethnic tai. Please do not stereotype all thais and PLEASE know what you are talkinga bout before you open your moth. Your insolence and ignorance in things has been reflected in the corrections people have given you.

Cheers!

the ones on the western coast are mostly mixed w/E. Africans & what's interesting is, Madagascar being a huge & diverse place, everyone on the entire island still speaks the same language...........

Ya man thats cool. Heres a bigger article on it what I was reading earlier today. However you prolly already read it since you mentioned the rice:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madagascar





Which is why Filipinoy said they are 3% or something like that?

The First Filipino settlement on the Americas was on October 18,
1587, fifty years before the first English settlement of Jamestown was
established.

Whoa....so when was it that the USA brought the Filipinos back from the Phillipies and made a zoo out of them? Was this before the US was even made or after? Or you never heard of it?

^Never heard of it,................why have you been to it?.....lol

btw, does the "WE" on ur "WE ARE NOT ASIAN!" sig include u?

Anyone still want to talk about Chinese? LoL

Chinese come from Africa, just like the rest of us

http://www.howcomyoucom.com/selfnews/viewn...38,85220,.shtml

http://www.howcomyoucom.com/selfnews/viewn...49,71160,.shtml

Nope, just learned about it in History class.

As for the WE, you know it means Hawaiians by itself.

ok, i tot u dont consider urself asian no more

No, Hawaiians are not Asian.

Koreans are Asian.

When I say "WE", I am speaking only from the Hawaiian standpoint since a lot of people here think they are asian based on photos of Mixies they see who doesn't even look Polynesian at all. It would be in the same range as if I said, "We are Korean. WE are asian". I would then be speaking from a Korean point of view.

This should solve the problem

Thank you that EXPLAINS EVERYTHING. IT FIGURES..Ugly little vietnamese kid running around posting bs trying to give chinese people a bad name hes just like alot of other viets on this site who hold a grudge on chinese people probably because his a** was fired by a chinese man. Get a life. I don't know if filipinos came from china but I sure do know your daddy did thats why you run around trying to convince everybody that your probably half chinese so you'll get accepted. What a trick.. 2

oh please not again

Jmac,
