Subject: Re: FILIPINOS ARE NOT "ASIAN" (IN RELATION TO CHINESE) THEY ARE CLOSER TO INDIAN AND ABORIGINAL HERITAGE. Author: rachel [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 04/14/04 8:42pm PDT In reply to: Jeanne 's message, "FILIPINOS ARE NOT "ASIAN" (IN RELATION TO CHINESE) THEY ARE CLOSER TO INDIAN AND ABORIGINAL HERITAGE." on 03/ 3/04 11:54pm PST I agree - "Asian" is just a term people use out of ignorance of the Filipino culture. In addition to some of Jeanne's info, I'd like to add the fact that Phil languages/dialects are a part of the Malayo-Polynesian or Austronesian linguistic group, which says a lot about the indigenous peoples of the Phil.
