THE HOSPITALITY OF MANSAKA AND KAGAN TRIBES | LIFE IN THE PHILIPPINES | ISLAND LIFE
Вставка

- The Philippines is home to more than 110 indigenous groups. Many of them have their own unique language and traditions. They have lived for centuries on different islands in different environments: mountains, forests, plains and coasts. This is reflected in their way of life and culture.
Harvest time is a time for fun. Today we will get to know two indigenous groups from Mindanao: the Mansaka and the Kagan. They're having a gathering in our town.
The Mansaka are the most dominant ethnic group in Compostella Valley. They are said to have lived in the area since Magbabaya.
Their settlements were more often located at the headwaters of rivers.
While the men farmed and tilled the land, the women made clothes from abaca fibers and wove mats. They also helped on the farm during planting, weeding and harvesting.
The Mansaka are known for their skill in jewelry making, weaving bracelets, beads and necklaces.
In their colorful patterns, one can notice many lines, rhombuses, and squares instead of using circles.
The Mansaka believe in the animation of all nature and ancestral spirits.
While the Kagan tribe is mostly Islamic. Compared to the Mansaka, they were more involved in hunting and fishing.
The name "Kagan": derived from the local word "Kaag", meaning "comrade". Another meaning is "inform" or "keep secret". These are the people who bring news and warn neighboring tribes of attacks by other ethnic groups. They live on the coastline and are the first to face any conquests.
Today there is a wide variety of tasty treats on the tables. There are lots of fruits and vegetables. There are gifts of the sea: fish, shrimp oysters and crabs.
Frogs are eaten in different parts of the Philippines, but they are especially popular on the island of Mindanao. They are considered a delicacy and are often served at celebrations.
Coconut worm larvae is also a popular dish in the Philippines. They are a source of protein. The larvae are usually fried, stewed or smoked.
Mansaka and Kagans consider hospitality a sign of respect and friendliness. They greet guests with a smile and hospitality and make them feel at home.
Mansaka and Kagan have always lived in harmony with nature. For them, the forest, river and sea are sacred places, and animals and plants are sacred creatures to be protected.
They try to preserve and pass on traditional languages, dances, songs and crafts to new generations.
We are happy that we had the opportunity to get to know their amazing culture.
This holiday will stay in our hearts forever.

I spent my first 10 years of childhood in Maco from 1962 to 1972. I remembered very well the Mansakas. They usually sell native fruits for their source of income. I also remember the vast forests in the mountains of Maco. Unfortunately, the logging companies cut all the big trees for export to Japan without a reforestation program.
How's your place? Diba Malaki Ang landslide sa Maco praying for the victims..

All my life, I dream to see the different cultures of the Philippines. I thank you for l showing me through your blogs how beautiful our country is. ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
I stayed in Amacan, Maco for almost 3 years (1989-1992). It was very cold in the mountains and on top you cannot see the lowlands in the mornings as it was covered with fog. That was where i also tasted, wild pig and venison (deer meat). Passing natives would sell it to us. I bathe in a very cold mountain stream. We would hunt small wild birds and cooked adobo. Very fond memories...
A small town full of surprises with rich in tradition and culture. Imagining living there with less stress and simple life surrounded by nice people. I love your place 🙂
Just concerned about the flooding in your area. Are you safe?
Hello Bores and Darlene ,why l love much your vlog co'z its very inspiring ,make more vlog pls.l love you
Thank you very much. We love you🥰❤️
What a beautiful show!❤❤❤
Beautiful costumes and dances!
Why are you not putting out your personal content we want to see you and your husband
some people are rude in their past videos saying their content are getting boring because its always about the day in a life or about them so they changed their way of uploading featuring the locals and the province festivals and traditions, honestly i like their approach and its a good way to refresh from content monotony
I saw your mom Boris, is she with you guys again?
Keep uploading nice blog Godbless 🙏❤️🙏
❤❤❤❤❤
Why is Boris went to the Immegration office?
To renew his visa in the Philippines.
❤❤❤🎉
i hope u are spared from the flooding and landslides
Thank you so much. Yes, we are both doing okay. We are far those affected areas😊
This kind of dance is the same as in Sabah and also Indonesia.
Hienoa! Awesome! Kiitos! Salamat!
Maybe u should explain to ur viewers ,why ur content has been change ...
No, they don't have to. Their contents are educational and interesting ever since.
they don't owe us any explanation, some viewers have been very rude in the comments in the past saying their content is getting boring and that its always about them so perhaps they changed their approach and now people are wondering why?, they can never win with people like you. damn if you do and damn if you don't!
But i cant eat the worms??? I just heared it d first time omg😢😢
