Hope you can register this house with the Historical Institute of the Philippines, they will preserve it and you can be awarded some amount of money annually to be able to maintain this ancestral house.
My daughter and I really enjoyed watching this! What beautiful history and you have such a beautiful family. I hope you guys saved as much of the furniture, clothing, and artwork as possible! I am so sorry to hear about the house being sold and possibly demolished. God bless you and your family!
Hope the house is still standing. As long as the house stands it can be fixed up. History matters. Make it a small art museum. Its still standing. Thats a good sign.
Such mixed feelings am sure. I know you all love this home and if only it could have remained in family and handed down and everyone being able to live in that wants to. Your mom is lovely and sister. Such a great family. So talented too! Thank you for sharing! I am sorry this has had to happen this way. The memories certainly will remain. You will have so much to take with you that will help keep it all alive through the centuries so all of family will remember.
We thoroughly enjoyed this video. Your family history is so beautiful. It was filled with love and devotion which is what drives my own family. The home is so lovely. As a grandmother myself, we are thrilled and grateful for every interaction with my family. We wish you and your beautiful family, the best of wishes and good health and prosperity going forward. We know that you will always pay it forward.
I wish he would have explained how and when the house was flooded and why the house couldn't be saved. Since this video is from 2010 an update would be nice. Was the house really demolished and if so, what is in its place now?
This house could have been saved by the heritage commission because its architecture and history was very significant to Philippine culture as a whole. If that house was already demolished, there will be no actual physical features to show or feel except that we can only see it in your blogs as one of the lost treasures of Philippine architecture.
Btw thanks for narrating in English. At least it was understandable to us Ilonggos. We are not totally unfamiliar with this kind house in Iloilo as we have similar houses here in Jaro only they are much older and larger. This is a beautiful and storied house as well. Congratulations for a wonderful video. Dont forget to send my regards to lolo Aying S. if indeed you are related to him. Kuya Mario too and Jess Ferrer their apo.
Did y'all take anything out the house? ? I think you should of try too save that house . Or lest take something. We need a up date please. From the hills of TENNESSEE. TRUE
Nasan na ung San Juan nyo po? It is a treasure. A beautiful image? Hindi na ba sya ipinuprusisyon? If yes gano na katagal? Sayang naman. Napakagandang santo
You should preserve them sir rather than demolish,u can have it registered and maintained with the help of national historical institute/commission of the philippines!!! Please don't demolish,the youth should witness them in the generations to come!! God bless you and your family tnx a lot for the tour,it resembles taal heritage village houses
gem241968 most statues of this era based in Catholicism are made of chalk. I did see some porcelain in the much smaller ones 20 in in smaller. but the bigger more typical but extravagant looking ones were chalk just like the ones in big cathedrals she had a couple that were extremely old! one of the things I collected were religious art pieces and these were one of my favorite kind so my eyes were on them and checking out what was old and what was what. one question I get answer for them. so sad! it looks like they have the means to pack up and take everything. I hope some of the younger people are interested in the cabinets and armoise they're from 1930 and before there's the extreme art deco. and also some furniture that's much older that was brought in probably by the Japanese consulate Maybe? But if they're going to demolish the buildings they should cut out hole walls and bring them along and add them into new homes that belong to the family! there was nothing there for the most part that should be left behind! Everything there either had monetary or sentimental value pretty amazing place. it was a well-made building in its time and a very expensive building and its time. so anything that isn't rotten should be taken out and reused and honored. it's very hard to watch things like this. even though they have great memories just sad to see it going away. I think more Generations deserve to be a part of it but it does look like the bottom is not going to hold up much longer so the best thing to do is to just separate all the carvings and bring them to new homes so that the family can keep them and visit them. I have a feeling they will. they already shared a lot with us but since they went that far I wish they would have told us their intentions for everything. I feel nosey but they started it ! LOL
This sad can you guys keep this house? And instead of selling it you guys make ayos nalang siguro tas gawung tourists spot para magaka pera sana ma save pa hubu
Rich wastfull people if they had a house like that... rest assured they could afford to fix it absolutely sick how wasteful rich people can be even the grandparents home go's to waste and they try to make it look like they give a shit and all the people in the comments are all ... how sweet ... lovely... blah humbug these spoled rich ungrateful people who had things handed to them and I can say these things because my grandparents were given a 3 room shack roof missing largest part no floor in bathroom truly falling in they made one ten by ten room liveable and stayed in it without the local government knowing because the house wasn't "safe" and they wouldn't connect power so anyway they used every dime they could scrape up to get the roof and bathroom fixed so the city would turn on power and over the last 10 years have made board by board a nice little 2 bed 1 bath home that probably smaller than the kitchen in this place but they own it and are proud to have it that's the difference between the working man and the rich no matter if you are in the hills of Tennessee like I am or any other part of the world
Wow! Judgemental much? You don't know the extent of the damage caused by the flooding, or what this family has endured, or the heartbreak they feel knowing this beautiful family home is to be destroyed. It's obvious that somewhere in the family history that someone worked hard and was successful. Why shouldn't they have a grand home if they worked for it? You sound like someone with a chip on their shoulder and a whole lot of jealousy in their heart.
Lisa Johnson It's called they worked hard to get there. A lot of homes from decades past look rich to is because the value of money was not as it is now. They also used to save and invest and build businesses. This is also another country, so who knows how much it costs there and who did the artwork for them. Maybe it was someone in the family and they didn't pay for"rich people" things. The house is old and sometimes after so much damage there is no saving it. Also some families cannot afford to keep it and pass it on. Be respectful. Many of us don't even have a home to go back and look at with such beautiful memories..
Sounds like you've got a lot of hatred in your heart. Let me tell you as a Filipino person, the place where this house is located is "Malabon" which is always hit by a flood every time there's a typhoon. (Used to be an affluent city back in the early 20th century, floods aren't this bad yet) It gets worse as years pass, you can see in the other video, that the gate of the house is lower than the main road. That explains how the local government dealt with the flood by making the roads higher. Also, this is not the main city and is very far from the business hub so most probably the family had to move to the bigger cities to work and live. Also, us speaking English doesn't mean we're spoiled rich kids. (it's always a notion here in the Philippines, that if you speak fluent English you're automatically rich) It's expensive to maintain an ancestral house, especially in a third-world country like ours.
Hope you can register this house with the Historical Institute of the Philippines, they will preserve it and you can be awarded some amount of money annually to be able to maintain this ancestral house.

You have a beautiful family and i can see that your Grandmother was a very special women. You are a wonderful grandson. Bless u and your family.
If the house is for sale, you should take your family carvings first, then they can be placed into another house! Great video, Tanks for sharing.
Such mixed feelings am sure. I know you all love this home and if only it could have remained in family and handed down and everyone being able to live in that wants to.

Why is this channel doesn't have millions subscribers? And all are outdated? Do you have a new channel we can follow? You're contents are superb!
I'm sure the santos (images of saints) are beautiful!
Malabo ! What happen in the house?
Mother nature is taking back over the house and im sorry for that
It is really sad to lose an ancestral house
You’re sweet and adorable by the way. Also your mom and Tita.

Please don't demolish,the youth should witness them in the generations to come!!
God bless you and your family tnx a lot for the tour,it resembles taal heritage village houses
I saw in Google Maps the now vacant flooded piece of lot where this mansion used to stand. So sad. I hope they were able to save the contents.
Nabagbag na po ba? Sayang naman.
@@notesl5576 Yes. Sayang. And wala namang pinalit.
which street is this in Malabon?
@@simple.toast.11 Sioco Street? I will check again. It was just heartbreaking to see it is gone. Sayang talaga.
❤❤❤
I notied the antique statues (saints) in the background. Are these made from ivory?
