I like this channel. I left the Philippines in 1972 with my family. I was 10 years old. I learned Philippine history through channels like this. My grandma and parents told me some. Now they are all gone. With the Dementia and Alzheimer’s, both parents, nothing is ever retained. Please keep on with your channel!
Had they not come along, do you really think the imperial powers would just respect philippine sovereignty, let the filipinos live in peace, and filipinos lived happily ever after?
Many Filipinos nowadays don't realize how much influence the Americans have on us: English language, schools, cuisine (Spaghetti, Hamburgers, Fried Chicken, Hotdogs, Corned Beef, Meatloaf), medicine, technology, industries, formal attires, etc.

nope. Poverty has been present during that time. 3 of my grandparents did not even reach college level because of poverty in provinces and they had to work blue collar jobs in Manila like driver and maid in order to survive. Many Filipinos from poor regions in Cebu and Ilocos left for Hawaii to work as indentured laborers "sakada". Also there are many 1950's Filipino films that depict poverty like Anak Dalita (1956), Squatters (1953) and Waray Waray (1954).
Dunno about the Germans and Japanese back then, but the Japanese and Germans i know today are some of the kindest and friendliest people on the planet.
The PI's would have been stolen from Spain regardless of the best efforts of Filipino patriots for independence - dont forget imperial powers only let go of their possessions after WW2, and only when they had no other choice due to a combination of worldwide disapproval and impoverished finances. Only one peer power has always respected self determination for everyone
True. According to one historian Carmen Guerrero Nakpil -- if we were not colonized by Spain and USA, mamili ka na lang sa UK, Portugal, France, Netherlands, Japan, etc. etc.
@@ChrisYap12 Well, Japan was not colonized & neither was Thailand. The biggest factor was societal unity. The Japanese had already undergone their wars of unification before Westerners showed up & Thailand was under unified rule of a king. But just think, what if PH was allowed to undergo its own wars of unification with every sultan fighting for supremacy until 1 ruled supreme? Magellan would have been turned away - firmly. Just a dream & even as I think about it, Pinoys back then were believers in peaceful coexistence, not armed warfare with neighboring sultanates or tribes.
@@TheMilpitasguy 1. Thailand was NOT colonized because the colonizers chose and agreed not to. WHY? THAILAND served as a “buffer” between the British and the French - to prevent any confrontation, the thing they were sick of doing for centuries in Europe. (Prolly same logic to what Spain and Portugal did when they technically divided the new world into two spheres in the Treaty of Tordesillas). 2. One of the terms/conditions of the alliance between the USA/Roosevelt Gov’t w/ Britain’s Churchill during WW2 was DECOLONIZATION - which they upheld through the United Nations - advocating for the right to self-determination, human rights, etc., etc. That is why many countries immediately gained “independence” after WW2. USA did not want a protracted war in the Japanese Mainland (hence the dropping of the 2 suns). WHEN -- two suns were dropped in Japan, the latter was under USA for reconstruction and occupation for 7 years - and under close military supervision aka under the US’ Military Umbrella, even until now. The history is respectful enough to not call it a colonization (for the reasons stated above - and also because Japan prolly “earned” respect when it showed that it can stand up against the USA/West. Japan’s intelligence, unity, hard work, discipline… and friendship w/ the USA - who shared its R&D, innovations, machinery, and technology TO combat communism - Japan turned out to be an economic powerhouse. An economic miracle. 3. What IF the Philippines was “allowed” to undergo its wars of unification … WELL, that’s exactly conflicting w/ the concept of Colonization isn’t it? There is no recognition, “allowance”, nor freedom when a powerful country takes over the weaker one. AND, conquest is conquest regardless of skin color or culture. NOTE: Kapag kakulay mo iyung mananakop s aiyo - it’s called “conflict/war of unification”… kapag ibang kulay, it’s called colonization. Mediyo amusing ‘no? Mediyo racist? 4. There were no “Filipinos” back then - specifically because it was Spain who united the small kingdoms/chiefdoms in a complicated archipelago and called it the Philippines, after King Philip of Spain. AND, no - “Filipinos” were not in peaceful co-existence. Do you have any idea why the Aeta-s are located in the Mountains? OR why some group such as the Lumad, chose to live in the elevated areas? Who drove them away before the white people came? Have you heard of the head hunters of Ifugao? Who were they fighting? Even Rajah Humabon and Lapu-Lapu were enemies. IN FACT, it was Humabon who goaded the Spaniards to attack Lapu-Lapu. P.S. You know what’s sad? Our records of Philippine history are mainly from the Spanish and Chinese records, and some from the Jesuit Missionaries e.g. records of Sultan Kudarat.
From 17 million when this film was made the population of the Philippines has grown to more than 100 million people. Yet the country remains too poor economically, too weak militarily, and too corrupt and immature culturally to go it alone as a sovereign power in its part of the world. It will always be subject to domination by one of the competing regional powers or another, and the only course of genuine autonomy available to it is to pick a side and stick to it before it is forcibly assigned to one.
1940's is the time in our history when the Marcoses were still colaborating with the occupying Japanese and were war profiteers. That is the reason why BBM's grandfather( Marcos Sr. father) was killed by the guerillas by tying him to two carabaos and were made to walk in two separate directions causing him to be torn apart. Painful way to die.
what? dude marcos family are japanese sympathizers during the japanese occupation. Also marcos became the president in 1965. more than 2 decades after ww2. This is early 1940s. 🤦♂
No pollution? Dream on. The sewage and domestic wastes went straight to the rivers and tributaries to the Manila Bay! There was NO waste water treatment facilities back then and even now in most part of Greater Manila area. No corruption? Again, dream on. It is during this time in Philippine history that 2 party political system existed. If you want to run for the coming election you have to bribe the party bosses or you can not run for the said election. Money talks back then and so does it today. No squatters? Dream some more. Land ownership this time was not that strictly enforced for reasons of impracticality and lack of enforcement on the part of the authorities for they had more pressing problems back then. For them back then, the mentality was you can not steal land because it is there but you can borrow it for the time being.
Why are Yanks so afraid of other languages? You guys not clever enough to learn any other language besides English? "Otherwise you all will be speaking German" "or else you all will be speaking Japanese" Pathetic
