What other countries have adopted Filipino celebrations and customs?

Datu Ulap

Due to trade with other former Spanish colonies and with Spain itself, local Filipino culture has made its way across oceans.

Mexico has adopted some customs and cultural imports from the Philippines.

• In Mexico, the growing of palm wine came from the Philippines.

• Mangoes, native to Asia, are now part of Mexican cuisine.

• Coconuts, native to Southeast Asia and Melanesia have also been introduced to Mexico as a result of trade with the Philippines.

• Distillation techniques to make coconut palm liquor called lambanog have been used to make tequila.

• Chamoy might have been influenced by Filipino kiamoy, or dried sour fruits.

• The Manton de Manila, derived from the Filipino panuelo is part of folk costumes.

Spain even got some influence from the Philippines, as the pith helmet was inspired by the salakot. This helmet has since spread throughout European military wear.

Guam, while a territory, also has some Filipino influence.

• The carabao is the unofficial national animal of Guam. It was brought over by Filipino settlers.

• Cuisine such as pancit, lumpia, dinuguan, and puto have also been brought over and part of local Guamanian dishes.

• The Mestiza dress of Guam is highly inspired by the Traje de Mestiza of the Philippines with a blouse made of pina fiber.

• Tschongka, a wooden board game played with shells into holes is inspired by sungka.

THRILLMAKER: Newscasters in the running to be this year’s star

For more than two years now, I have already written about countless personalities and events with thrilling and exciting news to share with their publics. This time around, it is your “thrillmaker” who now wishes to share just how thrilled he is to have one of his pursuits finally recognized by some of the most discriminating people in this industry—the movie press.

Vic Lima

Yes, setting all modesty aside, I got the thrill of my life when I found my name among those nominated for the 35th Philippine Movie Press Club’s (PMPC) Star Awards’ Best Male Newscaster Category. Being cited as a finalist in the award giving body’s roster of excellence may no longer be a big deal for others who have already had the chance to be nominated or may have already won in the past (after all, the recognition program had already been on for 35 years!). For someone like me, however, making it to the list after only two years straight broadcasting as an anchor and while representing the “often overlooked” government channel, being a nominee is already sweet victory which affirms that good, committed work does get rewarded.

Arnold Clavio

I certainly have no big expectations about winning. My co-nominees are popular and respected personalities in the industry who, I know, have invested much time and dedication to the broadcasting profession. 

Raffy Tima

Four Kapuso male anchors made it to the nominees’ list. Arnold Clavio and Raffy Tima have already won their Star Awards trophies multiple times in the past. Ivan Mayrina and Atom Araullo, on the other hand, are two of the leading network’s young and promising newscasting heartthrobs. My PTV colleague, Aljo Bendijo, is undoubtedly among the most remarkable names on both radio and television, while Net 25’s Vic Lima is someone who had been a recognizable broadcaster long before I even joined my first TV network, three decades ago. As a co-nominee and fan, I have nothing but pure admiration and respect to these gentlemen.

Atom Araullo

This is why I consider finding my name side by side these media warriors’ a huge honor and privilege in itself. While 31 years of continued engagement in broadcasting pursuits (FM radio, included) also speak volumes about my love for the media, I have always had my heart torn between my passion, which is newscasting; and my need to express my creativity, through my profession as a corporate communications executive. While I already had the chance to host and even anchor some news programs in the past, it had only been since 2020 that I finally resolved to serve the public fully in providing them with information they need to know via a regular news program. I realized that doing the news is the best way for me to somehow give back something to society as it will allow me to give Filipinos information that can help them formulate and make the right decisions and choices for their lives. Just for that, yes, I believe I truly deserve the nomination because not only did I commit to that idea, I truly pursued it with passion.

Ivan Mayrina

So whose hands will eventually bring home the prestigious trophy, representing the best broadcasting work in an especially challenging pandemic period? I guess we’ll just have to really wait until the winners are announced on the 28th of January at the Winford Manila Resort and Casino in Manila.

Aljo Bendijo

Davao City Rep. Duterte warns fixers

by Ivy Tejano 

DUTERTE

Davao City Rep. Paolo “Pulong” Z. Duterte vowed to file charges against fixers using the name of First Congressional District Office for their nefarious activities.

Duterte recently received information that a woman claiming to be an employee of his office had been recruiting people that need medical assistance from the government.

The fixer claimed that Duterte’s office will release P30,000 medical assistance with P3,000 automatically going to her. 

Upon receipt of the information, Duterte instructed his staff to report her to the police and have the incident recorded in the blotter.

“Paludhon nako ni atubangan San Pedro Church duha ka gabii (I will let her kneel in front of the San Pedro Church for two nights) and then appropriate charges will be filed,” Duterte vowed.

He urged Dabawenyos approached by anyone claiming to be an employee of the First Congressional District Office and offering such assistance to report them to authorities.

“If naa mahitabo susama ana sa uban, i-report dayon sa police ug sa congressional office sa numerong (If there’s a similar incident like this, please report it to the police and to the congressional district office’s contact number) 09667510792,” Duterte said.
