e.g.

What do REAL FILIPINOS look like?

Many netizens online are arguing if Miss Philippines candidates or Filipino celebrities are in European or Indian descents, whereas the real thing is, most of them are pure-blood Filipinos. This makes foreign people think that all Filipinos should look similar in most features. Such as Koreans in Korea, Chinese in China, or Caucasians in Western and European countries.

The Persistence of Social Differentiation in a Rural Philippine Village between so-called uplanders and lowlanders on Palawan

Wolfram H. Dressler

Under the American occupation of the Philippines, and while mainstream Hispanic Filipinos were being exterminated by the million, the American eye felt inclined to portray the peoples who gave an impression of rusticity and wilderness in remote, non-Malay, not deeply Hispanized areas of the Philippines, both justifying their uplifting aims and the wonder and consent of Americans at home. Photos from Dean C. Worcester's collection [University of Michigan digital collections], taken in 1901. Dean Conant Worcester, D.Sc., F.R.G.S. (October 1, 1866 - 1924) was an American zoologist, public official, and authority on the Philippines, born at Thetford, Vermont, and educated at the University of Michigan (A.B., 1889). From 1899 to 1901 he was a member of the United States Philippine Commission; thenceforth until 1913 he served as secretary of the Interior for the Philippine Insular Government.

Tourism seems to be gradually shifting the function of bikes from being a logistic need to a sort of choreographed F1 show the racing event which takes place in Imbayah, their festival. While so, tourism plays the important role of continuing the relevance of these wooden bikes for the Ifugao people, and in the part of the observers, having us realize the magnitude and depth of the different cultures outside of our urban backyards. – Paolo Abellanosa
