Your people were too scared to move on to Polynesia. They left Taiwan and stayed their Asian butts in the Philippines. This is why Filipinos are mostly tiny people and Polynesians are bigger in general.
There's a correlation, not because Filos are pacific islanders,coz we're not. But because Pcific islanders originated in Asia. It's the otherway around.
Im making a movie about this. Any opinions on my script? Here's the revised script: Kiko: (excitedly) Yo, Sione! I've been learning about our shared Pacific Islander roots! Sione: (scoffs) Oh please, Kiko. You don't know anything about Polynesian culture. Kiko: (proudly) Hey, I do too! We both love tattoos, and we both have a strong connection to the ocean... and we both love luaus! Sione: (rolling his eyes) Luaus? You think that's all there is to Polynesian culture? That's just tourist stuff. Kiko: (defensively) Hey, luaus are important! And we also have those cool grass huts... and we love dancing with grass skirts! Sione: (disgusted) Grass skirts? You're perpetuating stereotypes, Kiko. You don't know anything about our real culture. Kiko: (offended) Hey, I'm just trying to connect with my roots! You're always so quick to shut me down. Sione: (frustrated) Your roots? You're not even Polynesian, Kiko! You're Filipino. Just be proud of your own culture. Kiko: (angrily) My culture is Pacific Islander, just like yours! And I won't let you dictate what I can and can't claim. Sione: (firmly) Fine, Kiko. But don't come crying to me when you realize you're just appropriating a culture you don't understand. Kiko: (furiously) I don't need your approval, Sione! And I'll keep learning about my Pacific Islander heritage, with or without your help! (storms off) In this version, Kiko is offended by Sione's dismissal of his attempts to connect with Polynesian culture. Kiko feels that Sione is being elitist and exclusionary, and he becomes angry and defensive.
you must consider the migration path. The ancestors came from Taiwan, which is Asia. Then, downwards to the philippines, still Asia. Then onto the Pacific. Filipinos and their ancestors never ventured into the Pacific. They stayed in Asia, which makes them Asian. Filipinos might share similar ancestry with the islanders but it was the islanders who where Asian by origin, not the other way around.
You're very wrong. The Lapita Culture the original Lapita without admixture were 100% Igorots from Northern Luzon, DNA texting of thousands of years old Lapita burial sites found in Vanuatu matched an existing ethnic group in the Philippines. How did "Filipino" bones reach Oceania if they didn't venture out into the Pacific.
Only asians that are PI are ppl from eastern half of indonesia like maluku, papua and timor leste 🇹🇱 and its surrounding islands. Those technically compass a huge part of the land mass thats considered PI
No Filipino has ever said that to begin with lol. It's pretty funny that Pacific Islanders assume that we want to be like you lol, which we do not at all. You guys are us, but just bigger, mixed with Melanesians lol. Trust me, Filipino's are happy the way they are. They are happy, kind, caring, funny people! Im Filipino American and I know that I am Southeast Asian, its Pacific Islanders that deny their Asian roots lol. On ANOTHER note, not sure why people hate us haha, its good to know that people are still pretty racist against us lol, especially against the Filipino men. We are a beautiful, mixed race and if people hate on that, then its probably jealousy lmfao.
In the USA there is no ethnic category of SEA but ASIA and Pacific Islander. Choose wisely. INDIA, PAKISTAN NEPAL AND AGJANISTAN are ASIA. Do you look more of them dark indians and pakistans?
I'm Filipino-Spaniard-Chinese Descendant. I speak Spanish, Chavacano and Tagalog but I consider myself Hispanic and Pacific Islander ✌️😂. Respect my comment.
As a Polynesian, I can tell you that we appreciate everyone that embraces us HOWEVER we do get annoyed when Filipinos claim they are Pacific Islanders because they dont like being Asian. We are not a mask to put on during Halloween. We are not an umbrella to shield you from being showered with Asian stereotypes. Grow a pair! We are a people, we are who we are by birth, not by choice. Please stop!
@@afrofilipina almost all of them are belong to Austronesian. Studies results show that the ancestors of today's Filipinos are originated in Southern China, moved to Taiwan, and then down to the Philippines a couple of thousands of years ago. They called them the Austronesian people. The Austronesian people populated our country; that's the reason why we Filipinos exist today. The first and oldest China town in the world is in the Philippines. We Filipinos not Pacific islanders, not Chinese, we are not anybody.

Austronesian ancestry is believed to be the major ancestral component among Filipinos due to the historical migration and settlement patterns in the Philippines. The Genetic Origins of the people of the Philippines published in the journal PLOS ONE in 2016 provides insights into the genetic makeup of Filipino populations. The research found that Austronesian ancestry accounted for approximately 95% of the genetic component among ethnolinguistic groups in the Philippines. We never disgregard our ethnic minorities in our countries because they are part of our community they deserved to be love and respected and it is important to note that every countries have ethnic diversity and everyone should be aware and understand that every countries around the world have ethnic diversity even the countries are obviously Asian still have ethnicity diversity
@@kimmyDaYang you have to watch the video to understand. It has more to do with the history of these terms. Austronesian is next! I did a video about Asian but have not posted here yet. I will do a recap when I post about Austronesian.
You have to change your perspective. You are looking at this the wrong way. Sure Asian and Pacific Islands are terms made up by white people. It is their language, who is anyone to tell them they cannot use the word Pacific Islands to describe a certain region within the Pacific Ocean? Do they tell you Filipinos to change the meanings of a Filipino terms in Tagalog? No, you are Filipino and if you say "Ching Ching " in your language refers to Melanesia and Micronesia, who is anyone to argue that it should include Polynesia? Go ahead and create your language but don't tell people that they can't make words in their own language
Although the "Ching Ching" is borderline r*cist, I think if you listen closely, I am not faulting anyone. I am saying the opposite actually. That all people are on the journey of self definition. The origin of the words - including Filipino - had nothing to do with the present day people. These terms were to distinguish and separate other peoples from the indigenous inhabitants of the islands. These are not our terms anyway - this language not our original language anyway - so call yourself what you want! just slow your roll on the Ching Ching - salamat!
@@afrofilipinathey were not created to separate. The were created to USE. If you asked "Where is Tonga?" Then I can use the term to communicate with you and say "Tonga is in the Pacific Islands." See? Enough with the conspiracy theories. 🤦🏾
