my father that time was just 19 years old then here's me also watching this clip also 19 yrs old. watching this was like being my father in his 19 years old.
no change happen for over 3 decades it looks like how it looks like now. weak law implementation + corrupt official + no liability + get out of a jail free card.
Ulol di naman talaga mawawala ang traffic ang dahilan kasi niyan ay ang traffic light ang taas ng oras kaya naiipon ang mga sasakyan kaya nag tratraffic
Thank you for uploading the video. I am nostalgic about the past. 1989: I was 8 years old. I was still in elementary school. I was still young, innocent and living a carefree life. My mom and grandparents were still alive taking good care of me. Life was so much simpler back then. No cell phone, no internet, no modern gadgets. I'm happy playing with my friends patintero, tagu-taguan or watching TV. I wish I could go back in time and relive those precious moments. Time flies so fast.
Actually you can relive your childhood thru your kids/pamangkins. Sa kanila mo naman iparanas yung mga naranasan mo nung bata ka. Brings back memories, then naipapasa mo pa yung mga beautiful experiences na yun sa kanila ;)
the Philippines looks really promising way back in the 80s and 90s, i hope Filipinos will rise up and unite to overcome the different adversities of the country. The potential is there and people know it.
@Казимир Дурнов Health Care, steady economic growth since 87 (even during the Asian Financial Crisis and 2008 depression, 3rd highest dollar reserves next only to China and Japan, improved social security benefits, positive GDP growth from 1999 to 2019... It's not much but past the point of redemption is a bit much
Ah... no. The Philippines after 1982 was struggling. Huge debt, very high corruption level, half the population in poverty, bankrupt, armed rebellion... This is why the Philippines should have stayed as a colony.
I say one of the reasons why it looks nicer back in the 80s and 90s is because it was about half the population it has now. Thank you for wishing our country well.
@@chucksnorey1858 right, at ngayon, kahit bata palang mga 13 pataas nagkakaroon na ng sariling anak kaya dumadami population sa pinas dahil sa kabataan ngayon puro libog nalang iniiral nila
Pati mga Music nung 80s catchy mala Disco/City Pop, Sharon, Manilyn, TVJ, APO, Hotdog, Lilieth etc. kakamiss pati mga Tito & Tita ko 80s & 90s pinakamasayang era kahit minsan boring din dahil alaws pako pera noon dati bata batuta pa ko noon😂

you forgot Planetaruim which is tambayan din ng mga high school students. lalo na sa Araullo High School, Manila Science, Philippine Normal atbp .. Love it
born 1984...so glad to see a kind of clip like this...no need to edit, no sound/special effects...you can feel the old days...its so amazing to watch and hear a natural sounds from those years! thank you for sharing your memories to us...more power and Godbless...😊🙏😷
Early 70s was good but it was a downward spiral til '86. Why? Corruption, cronyism, nepotism. Imelda hit the nail in the coffin. Philippines will never recover in this lifetime because of traditional trapo politics. From Corazon Aquino down to the worst - Duterte.
yes the quality of life hasn't changed significantly, only people now have cellphones, and few tall buildings now in the Manila Bay area. other than that, nothing much have changed.
Still the same way of life as it is nowadays. The only differences are the sense of fashion, the population, technology, the buildings (partly), and the number of vehicles on the road. It seems that the Philippines hasn’t made a huge improvement from how it was decades ago. What a shame.
Mas mataas pa tayo sa South Korea noon kasi bumabawi pa sila sa kahirapan until umapak si Marcos at lalo na yung bobong housewife na Aquino. Dun nagdownfall ang Pilipinas. Ashes to the ground. 2nd world country to 3rd world country.
@@kelronronan1207 ofcourse it's modern but seeing other countries' development from the 80s to now, the Philippines has minimal change, almost nothing. The cars btw are like phones, they have different models and it just happens that what you see in the video are how they look like back then, and used worldwide so it doesn't reflect the modernity of the Philippines at all.
This looks like an early form of vlogging, without too much talking just purely video taking. And it's amazing to see how Manila looked like back then when I was only 4yrs old.
Thank you for saving these videos of 80's sobrang na touch ako at nanumbalik yung time ng ternder years ng youthful ko. Gaano pa kaluwag at kaganda ang manila noon. Nakakatutuwa.
Eto yung nakakamiss na dekada. Oo may kadukhaan at kahirapan pero ang buhay ay napapagitnaan ng teknolohiya at modernisasyon at simpleng pamumuhay at tradisyon
Batang 2k ako pero bakit ganun parang gusto kong mag time travel sa panahon nayan mas gusto ko yung ganyang panahon payapa at simple lang ang pamumuhay
maraming salamat sa nag take video nito importante ito para makita ng mga bata mga younger generation z newer born in the next future year makikita nila ano ang itsora manila noon..!
Thank You for sharing this video. I grew up in Manila in the early 80’s and was quite familiar with those places that was shown in your video since i attended college in the University Belt area in the 90’s but now living in the United States roughly 20 years. Mabuhay Pilipinas I miss you so much.
Sarap makita nito, you can sense the simple but less stress living. I also like the 80s fashion and I noticed that most Pinoys back then are slim, halos wala ka ng makitang overweight kahit yung may mga edad na. Not like now na ang daming overfed and our diet these days are more on sweets and unhealthy. Grabe yung Cindy''s at the end of this video, namiss ko bigla yung chicken nila na ang laki ng serving noon bakit ba kasi sila nawala. Yan ang favorite ko nung bata ako. Ang ganda rin ng song sa Cindy's playing in the background Bad Boy by Miami Sound Machine, ang 80s ng beat.

Grabe, walang storya, shaky, hindi malinaw ang audio, walang visual effects, pero BAKIT NAPAKASARAP PANOORIN?! Salamat po sa pag-share nito. Ang sarap lang balikan ang nakaraan!
I saw this within the recommendations of the "nostalgic" video that I was watching. Wow, ganyan pala itsura ng Manila nung '89 😰 and were you staying at the former former Grand Boulevard Hotel? I live for nostalgia like these home videos 💜 I was born in 1991
I've only seen the interior of the Grand Boulevard Hotel (formerly Silahis Hotel) through a Filipino comedy movie "Pinay Pie". The last time I saw the hotel, it had become sort of an eerie shell with graffiti on the front and a lone security guard guarding the entrance. I don't know what happened now because of this coronavirus pandemic.
In the 80''s a video cam is not a constant sight unlike now where your smartphone has a built-in feature for it. When you have a video cam back in those days then definitely you're "big time". In this video it's a foreigner that's touring Manila in 1981 and definitely a rich guy in Philippine standard and he has this device to shoot around.
Napapansin niyo ba guys? Kapag matagal mo tong pinapanood parang hindi mo na maiisip na 1989 pa ito, parang kahapon lang ito navideo. Parang nag-vo-vlog lang yung nagvivideo nito. 😍
1992 ako pinanganak pero grabe parang nito lang yan sobrang simple lang ng mga tao dati asan na kya yang mga yan buhay pa kaya? aliw talga ko manood ng mga ganto buti nalang na save tong video na to
I was 9 years old when this video was taken, and yes it is very nostalgic. I can still remember stealing Sunshine green peas inside a Garapon on my mothers tindahan.
woww year 1989, that was my high school days,, at minsan lang aq nun mkapasyal sa Avenida na nsa Video, nkkapunta lang aq pag ksama q mga parents at lola q, when going to Quiapo church and Sta. cruz church,, nothing changes the place, the differences is the people na nag iba mga pananamit ng suot,, and the hair of the womens now, more straight than before, thanks for uploading that video, i hope more videos place in Manila, thanks😊❤
ako kahit 2000's ang era ko... I must really appreciated talaga itong mga ganitong videos ng 70s - 90s as we seen nman how good attitude meron ang karamihan ng mga Pinoy noon.. may Nostalgiac effect eh👌
Makes me nostalgic for a time when I wasn't born yet. This is the perfect capsule to show how fleeting life is. Many of these people, vehicles, animals, roads, etc. are long gone and soon we will also be encapsulated in clips for the future to see, and by then, we're also gone.
Hindi pa ako isinilang noong taon na yan at 15 palang ako ngayon pero kung tutuusin, mas gusto kong mabuhay sa ganyang panahon, kung maibabalik lang ang oras.
Ah ganon ba? Bat ka nanonood ng youtube kung ganon? Ano ba kailangan para mag comment sa youtube? Diba cellphone/computer? Ayaw mo lang sa mga masbata sayo dahil alam mo na mapapalitan ka na nila, yun lang yon. Tanggapin mong kulubot ka na at pagdating ng araw mababaon sa ilalim ng lupa at manahimik ka. Ang teknolohiya ay parte ng tinatawag nating "progress". Ganon ba talaga kahirap intindihin yon? Sabaw ang utak😂.
So nostalgic, I am only 10 year old that time. Life is so simple, I live in Cavite but I love Manila when I was in college till now that I am working already. Thank you for uploading.
80's! Its my high school days..want to thank the one who recorded this video. Who would ever thought that nowadays videos like this are uploaded in youtube. These are priceless videos. Ive seen some of the installments of videos like this. 😊
@@Ken-uf2se back then naman, mahirap talaga buhay, kahit saan. Pero mas malala ngayon ung gap ng mahihirap sa mayaman, kung tama lang talaga development at leadership ng Pilipinas noon maabutan natin ung mga tulad ng Japan at Singapore, eh wala.
Wala naman talagang wires along Roxas Boulevard esp near and around Luneta Park 🙂 Mas dumami pa nga mga puno today kesa dati (along Roxas Blvd). Poverty nowadays is still prevalent especially some areas in Manila City. Today the population of NCR (12M+), most of us are in the Middle Class but the wide gap is still very noticeble. The government need to focus on housing and job opportunities for us to have a sustainable development in the country. #skl 😊
It is so sad that Philippines used to be a prosperous and paradise country 30 years ago and stopped progress in coming 20 years since 80s. U can clearly see that streets in 1989 even cleaner than now. people are always questioning, what happened on Manila and what happened on this country that made such an advanced country decline to the suffering..
Marcos ruined the economy. Compare his good first term to his second term, during which he and his cronies hijacked the government so he could stay in power and bleed the country dry. From the 40s-60s we had a solid economy, when he declared Martial Law in the 70s that is when the Philippines began to slide into poverty. Crime, corruption, and malnutrition became major problems that further exacerbated our economic woes. By the time Cory Aquino took over the government was technically bankrupt, so the country had to start from scratch. And because it is easier to destroy than to rebuild It took another 4 decades before our economy could bounce back. Unfortunately, the current administration is once again neglecting our economy.
@@nightvisiongoggles thank you for your such detailed explaining, it's good to know what happened here in the past half century , history always reminders the people to reflect their mistakes for the lessons. God bless Philippines!
@@erickli1376 Aquino's made Philippines miserable they sold our country to the Elites , they destroyed everything that President Marcos done for.our country with their.black propaganda but now Filipinos are awake on what really happened during Aquino's adminstration
@@jmwes12 Good to know, thank you. More evidences come up to point and critic to A's administration, which is very regretful. Hope the covid will also give Philippines a Sally Port that make administrations realize what actually country need and what are the most concerning urges of the people. Then start to fix them
@@jmwes12 Sorry to burst your bubble. Marcos add another elite on those elites that you mentioned. Research Marcos' cronies and you will see. Most of those cronies are billionaires until now.
This is such a nostalgic video. When I was 20yrs old back in 1982 I used to hang out & sleep inside Luneta Park for almost a yr while applying for a job as a Seaman. I have been back in Pinas several times ever since then but straight to Mindanao & Cebu only, but never had the time to revisit Manila. Hopefully, when this pandemic is over, I will be able to see Manila again ... this time with my family.
People dream of returning to the past, not because the past is beautiful but ugly today. Would you like to go back to the past if life is fine today? That is the truth.
Oo naman may bloger na noon.... ngayun lang may social media blogger.... dati ang gamit tv, radio.. saka pili pa lang ang nakakapag blog noon.. di tulad ngayun halos lahat pwd. Blogging or vlogging is a millenial term for brodcasting.
Are you saying vlogging, or blogging? I love the way my Filipino barkada used to tell me bictory instead of victory. Or lab instead of love. Haha. I'm old American, (they called me kanotot) but spent many years in PI starting in the 60's till covid. Now all my barkada there are dead, but I still love them all. We would meet every night at Luisa and Sons, near corner of recto and avenida (abenida) Rizal. Across from Pantraco station. By the theater there was a fruit vendor. I became addicted to lanzones. Hope I live long enough to go back when they lift the quarantine. Miss ko na kayo Manila.
9yrs old ako nito Kung saan nag no. 1 ang palabas ng abscbn na. Bioman, shaider.kahit Taga city Kami maaga maluto si mama dahil laging brownout at bibihira din may kuryente. Sa music naman sikat ang banda guns n roses,debbie Gibson, Tiffany.pinaka tinangkilik ng pinoy na genre punk,hair bands at new wave😊.
@@PaoloRigotti It seemed they toured Malacañang Palace back then late 80s people can tour the Palace for a small fee but I know for a fact that they were not allowed to video inside. It's prohibited.
i was studying at FEATI during this time, its when Malacañang Palace was opened to the public..Quiapo and Avenida is almost the same..except for the redesigned overpass..toyota corolla dx ang taxi..to the uninformed taxi driver "HOSPICIO DE SAN JOSE"is not for disabled children

It must've been a luxury to own a personal video camera back then.
It was
Yep it was
Of course if you research a personal video camera is the size of a hollow block and weighs 2'lkilos I think... try carrying that around luxuriously...
yeah it was, i remember my uncle who works in saudi and bring that panasonic video cam wighs a kilo and look like a hollow blocks.

Or that some have not existed yet, but really are unkempt
Who would've thought someone would really "vlog" the surroundings during the 80's for the future to see... Mind-blowing!
True
Did you not just say the same exact thing to the other video LOL
I just this comment in another video.
Copy pasting stoner
Kabahan kana pag may nagsabing "vlog" sa video na yan hahaha malamang time traveller yun 😂
2 years old palang ako nito. Napakasimple lang talaga nung buhay noon. 😊

80’s the decade of great music. New Wave, disco songs, Michael Jackson era. In politics the time we jump from the pan into the fire.
And great metal bands too. 80's is really amazing, luckily I experienced living in that Era.
Also Madonna .. Kylie Minogue .. Janet Jackson .. Etc ..
And now look at manila. Look still the same after the aquino's regime. Wala ka makikita d2 na skwater sa mga sapa o kung saan.

this the life i kinda wanted to feel, you know? that people.. the streets... old things... they’ve probably livin the best life.
Everytime I visit cebu's Carbon market felt some nostalgia brings back my memories of old manila growing up in the 90s, this is how it looks hehehe
Thanks for sharing
This is gold. Thanks for sharing. Missing the old Manila.🇵🇭🇨🇦🥰🙏
Napakaganda ng aesthetics ng camera. And natural lang yan na camera. Walang effects, walang kung ano ano. Talagang aged and beautiful.
In the 80''s a video cam is not a constant sight unlike now where your smartphone has a built-in feature for it. When you have a video cam back in those days then definitely you're "big time". In this video it's a foreigner that's touring Manila in 1981 and definitely a rich guy in Philippine standard and he has this device to shoot around.
This video was taken in 1989. My dad bought the camera just for this trip to the Philippines. I'm so glad I found this tape. Thanks for watching.
@@PaoloRigotti Yeah sorry it was 1989
@1:00 Lancer Boxtype! And the guy's dialect is Visayan. Youve must be a big shot that time having a handycam in the late 80s
@@PaoloRigotti are you of Fil-Italian heritage?
@@DenG611 close. Fil-Swiss actually 😁🇵🇭🇨🇭
the only thing that didnt change was the jeepneys
Napapansin niyo ba guys? Kapag matagal mo tong pinapanood parang hindi mo na maiisip na 1989 pa ito, parang kahapon lang ito navideo. Parang nag-vo-vlog lang yung nagvivideo nito. 😍
Walang masyadong pinag-iba itsura ng manila noon at ngayon
1992 ako pinanganak pero grabe parang nito lang yan sobrang simple lang ng mga tao dati asan na kya yang mga yan buhay pa kaya? aliw talga ko manood ng mga ganto buti nalang na save tong video na to
Thank you for sharing this video, I was in my early 20’s when this video was taken, back memories talaga. God bless you always. 😊♥️🙏🏼🙏🏼
🥰🤗
I love the 80's! My mom used to work at Royal Match in Makati Enrile's company it was next to plaza fair lol! Good times and Simpler times.
If we could only turn back time
I would, but without the smoke anywhere trend back then
Manila still look like this
wrong time to travel back to. mas ok nun 1960's
@@SpoiledZoey even earlier 20s to 30s before WW2 under US commonwealth. Manila was regarded as the Paris of Asia.
You can't turn back the clock. But you can wind it up again.
Thanks for the memory. I worked at the hamburger chain shown at the end of the video around the same year this vid was taken.
What was the name of that restaurant at the end of the video?
You coudve been captured by the video cam back then and say hello to your old self today..😂
@@joeyb7373 that's Cindy's :)
i was 22 yrs of age.i felt like i just traveled back in time.i studied here in manila.i could still recall this scenarios.tnx for uploading.
Eto yung panahon na di pa masakit sa balat ang sikat ng araw at malamig pa ang simoy ng hangin
i like to go back again in the 80s its beautiful, also my love ones are still alive
Im back lol
I was 9 years old when this video was taken, and yes it is very nostalgic. I can still remember stealing Sunshine green peas inside a Garapon on my mothers tindahan.
70 to 80's is the best year music, movies etc,
Actually it's the 50s-60s, economy and stability wise
I super agree best songs came out during 70s and 80s...time machine please!!!
True
this kind of videos makes me feel nostalgic happy, and sad at the same time...
woww year 1989, that was my high school days,, at minsan lang aq nun mkapasyal sa Avenida na nsa Video, nkkapunta lang aq pag ksama q mga parents at lola q, when going to Quiapo church and Sta. cruz church,, nothing changes the place, the differences is the people na nag iba mga pananamit ng suot,, and the hair of the womens now, more straight than before, thanks for uploading that video, i hope more videos place in Manila, thanks😊❤
Thank you so much for this comment
We all have our time machine those that take us back called memories, and those carry us forward called dreams
youtube is my time machine!
I think I heard that quote from the movie "The Time Machine".
right..
Matthias Kronqvist.
But dreams are kind of a blur. It's better to have a footage of a very detailed event than some blurred clips on our minds.
Man I wish i lived to this year.. Gusto ko kasi fashion nila 70's - 80's...
This is the time when no motorcycles in the streets!
Tama.. d pa kasi uso hulugan nuon..
Karamihan nyan mga naka enduro
wala pa kamote.. ngaun kasi easy access nalang motor ..kahit mga batang patambay tambay nakaka pag drive kasi mga kuya nila nakakaluha ng hulugan ...
karamihan ang motor noon ay 2 stroke na pang tricycle at dirt bike. iilan lang ang big bike noon.
Wala pang riding in tandem. pero may mga sparrows hahaha.

That's Manila Hotel. I stayed there in July '89 as a four-year-old during my first visit to the Philippines to visit family in Negros.
ako kahit 2000's ang era ko... I must really appreciated talaga itong mga ganitong videos ng 70s - 90s
as we seen nman how good attitude meron ang karamihan ng mga Pinoy noon.. may Nostalgiac effect eh👌
Makes me nostalgic for a time when I wasn't born yet. This is the perfect capsule to show how fleeting life is. Many of these people, vehicles, animals, roads, etc. are long gone and soon we will also be encapsulated in clips for the future to see, and by then, we're also gone.
Trees… I see trees that's probably non-existent now.
Hindi pa ako isinilang noong taon na yan at 15 palang ako ngayon pero kung tutuusin, mas gusto kong mabuhay sa ganyang panahon, kung maibabalik lang ang oras.
Pinagsasabi mo ganyan pa din itsura ng manila ngayon
ulol
Ma swerte un 80'S - 90'S KASI WALA PANG GADGET AND TECH. MAPIPILITAN KA TALAGA MAKI HALUBIRO SA MGA TAO...
Aba aba another boomer.
@@SussyBaka-qi5fn Aba aba another booger.
@@jahithber1430Ano pinag sasabi mo qaqi?😂😂 kung gusto mong bumalik sa 80s di bumalik ka don para maging pangulo mo ulit ang mga aquino
Ah ganon ba? Bat ka nanonood ng youtube kung ganon? Ano ba kailangan para mag comment sa youtube? Diba cellphone/computer? Ayaw mo lang sa mga masbata sayo dahil alam mo na mapapalitan ka na nila, yun lang yon. Tanggapin mong kulubot ka na at pagdating ng araw mababaon sa ilalim ng lupa at manahimik ka. Ang teknolohiya ay parte ng tinatawag nating "progress". Ganon ba talaga kahirap intindihin yon? Sabaw ang utak😂.
@@daboi3864 hijo you just dont understand people who feel nostalgic about life in the 80's
Wow just wow nice videos from the past thanks
Glad you like them!
1989 - 3 years old palang ako ng mga panahon na yan :-D
if i could enter this video ill go in my dad's place in sta.mesa though he havent met my mom that time
Wow. Tga mindanao kami pero may bahay lolo ko sa sta mesa. Likod ng sm sta mesa/ sm centerpoint
Hi dad I'm your son from the future
Our current house was still a forest here in Antipolo, Rizal this time lol
And guess what 31years later they still honk there horn for nothing.
I guess its 41 years later 😆
It's probably a "Hi"
Haha. Yup. That was always the best part. Drivers every morning would check their horn but not their brakes.
So nostalgic, I am only 10 year old that time. Life is so simple, I live in Cavite but I love Manila when I was in college till now that I am working already. Thank you for uploading.
Time flies
80's! Its my high school days..want to thank the one who recorded this video. Who would ever thought that nowadays videos like this are uploaded in youtube. These are priceless videos. Ive seen some of the installments of videos like this. 😊
Rock on!
Ive notice the almost non existing electrical lines and clean street going pass luneta and jose rizal... Looked better than today. 😳
Mas maganda parin ngayon kesa na mabubuhay ako sa 80s napakahirap ng mga tao noon kumpara ngayon
@@Ken-uf2se back then naman, mahirap talaga buhay, kahit saan. Pero mas malala ngayon ung gap ng mahihirap sa mayaman, kung tama lang talaga development at leadership ng Pilipinas noon maabutan natin ung mga tulad ng Japan at Singapore, eh wala.
Wala naman talagang wires along Roxas Boulevard esp near and around Luneta Park 🙂 Mas dumami pa nga mga puno today kesa dati (along Roxas Blvd).
Poverty nowadays is still prevalent especially some areas in Manila City. Today the population of NCR (12M+), most of us are in the Middle Class but the wide gap is still very noticeble. The government need to focus on housing and job opportunities for us to have a sustainable development in the country. #skl 😊
Underdeveloped dati, economy is down after the Marcos admin even with the Aquino,. Mas maganda pa din ngayon
para akong nagtime ttravel hehe. nice!
It is so sad that Philippines used to be a prosperous and paradise country 30 years ago and stopped progress in coming 20 years since 80s. U can clearly see that streets in 1989 even cleaner than now. people are always questioning, what happened on Manila and what happened on this country that made such an advanced country decline to the suffering..
Marcos ruined the economy. Compare his good first term to his second term, during which he and his cronies hijacked the government so he could stay in power and bleed the country dry. From the 40s-60s we had a solid economy, when he declared Martial Law in the 70s that is when the Philippines began to slide into poverty. Crime, corruption, and malnutrition became major problems that further exacerbated our economic woes.
By the time Cory Aquino took over the government was technically bankrupt, so the country had to start from scratch. And because it is easier to destroy than to rebuild It took another 4 decades before our economy could bounce back. Unfortunately, the current administration is once again neglecting our economy.
@@nightvisiongoggles thank you for your such detailed explaining, it's good to know what happened here in the past half century , history always reminders the people to reflect their mistakes for the lessons. God bless Philippines!
@@erickli1376 Aquino's made Philippines miserable they sold our country to the Elites , they destroyed everything that President Marcos done for.our country with their.black propaganda but now Filipinos are awake on what really happened during Aquino's adminstration
@@jmwes12 Good to know, thank you. More evidences come up to point and critic to A's administration, which is very regretful. Hope the covid will also give Philippines a Sally Port that make administrations realize what actually country need and what are the most concerning urges of the people. Then start to fix them
@@jmwes12 Sorry to burst your bubble. Marcos add another elite on those elites that you mentioned. Research Marcos' cronies and you will see. Most of those cronies are billionaires until now.
Beautiful Manila in the 80's..so much memories especially with my late dad used to work at CCP and Folk Arts Theater...nice upload enjoyable to wacth!
This is such a nostalgic video. When I was 20yrs old back in 1982 I used to hang out & sleep inside Luneta Park for almost a yr while applying for a job as a Seaman. I have been back in Pinas several times ever since then but straight to Mindanao & Cebu only, but never had the time to revisit Manila. Hopefully, when this pandemic is over, I will be able to see Manila again ... this time with my family.
this is so cool! i wish u could upload more pf ur dads old camcorder 🙂
People dream of returning to the past, not because the past is beautiful but ugly today. Would you like to go back to the past if life is fine today? That is the truth.
May vlogger na pala noong 1989?
Pinapanganak palang ako sa taon na yan..hehehe
You’re not serious are u? Vlogger in the 80s? Think, man!
@@schneider9615 seryoso ka sa lahat ng bagay
Oo naman may bloger na noon.... ngayun lang may social media blogger.... dati ang gamit tv, radio.. saka pili pa lang ang nakakapag blog noon.. di tulad ngayun halos lahat pwd. Blogging or vlogging is a millenial term for brodcasting.
They used analog camcorders with cassettes way back then. This was the era of betamax and VHS tapes.
@@schneider9615 You sound like a boomer. Can't you take a joke?
Wow you save that video and it's clear, nice to see old photographs and video's😊
Thanks 👍
wow i was only 9 years old back then...miss the old manila and those SARAO jeepneys were pretty famous back then.

Vlogging Before There Even Was a Thing Called Vlogging ❤️🤗
Are you saying vlogging, or blogging? I love the way my Filipino barkada used to tell me bictory instead of victory. Or lab instead of love. Haha. I'm old American, (they called me kanotot) but spent many years in PI starting in the 60's till covid. Now all my barkada there are dead, but I still love them all. We would meet every night at Luisa and Sons, near corner of recto and avenida (abenida) Rizal. Across from Pantraco station. By the theater there was a fruit vendor. I became addicted to lanzones. Hope I live long enough to go back when they lift the quarantine. Miss ko na kayo Manila.
Good 'ol "Gemini" yellow taxis of Manila 😅

Wow! Thanks for all the info. I appreciate it.
@@PaoloRigotti It seemed they toured Malacañang Palace back then late 80s people can tour the Palace for a small fee but I know for a fact that they were not allowed to video inside. It's prohibited.
i was studying at FEATI during this time, its when Malacañang Palace was opened to the public..Quiapo and Avenida is almost the same..except for the redesigned overpass..toyota corolla dx ang taxi..to the uninformed taxi driver "HOSPICIO DE SAN JOSE"is not for disabled children

Thank you too!
