ummm nope. b4 yes. i thought he was. but come to think of it. his great deeds were not been apreciated by the present filipinos. why? because his bad deeds had more weight. but past is past. i think Garcia is the best. his policies and in that time the economy (currency) of the philippines is much much better than today.

It depends where I am in the world or who I deal with. I'm Colombian, but here in the U.S. the most common assumption is Puerto Rican or Cuban.\nEast Asians think I'm Eurasian or Filipino, Arabs think I'm Spaniard or Turkish, Europeans think I'm Arab, Russians think I'm Central Asian.

Is he very "ethnic" or is he thoroughly Americanized with no real racial heritage identity? If the latter then I (speaking as someone from a minority background but who identifies his heritage as the the legacy of George Washington, Teddy Roosevelt and the American GI), then let me tell you that race doesn't matter.

If what you mean by unity is that of the Philippines as an "imagined community" then i can tell you filipinos can very well identify themselves as one. As you may see filipinos have close ties and even when in other countries they form so called "Filipino Communities". But then if you speak of unity as having a particular culture that you can pinpoint, well, Filipinos are not like that. The Philippines has rich and diverse culture and history. The Philippines is is politically divided in several regions, and sometimes they tend to be regionalistic. Teodoro Agoncillo's History of the Filipino People would be a big help. (:

Hey what exactly do you have in mind?\n\nSome general ideas here:\n\nhttp://www.harpercollege.edu/mhealy/g101ilec/sasia/ssc/ssdiv/ssdivfr.htm\n\nAlso, UNESCO published this document on the topic: www.unu.edu/hq/japanese/ gs-j/gs2004j/shonan20/kaldun.pdf \n\nIn the meantime, you can also get some ideas from this text\n\nIts principal language groups include Sino-Tibetan, Indo-Aryan, Austronesian, Austroasiatic, and Semitic; important singular languages include Japanese and Korean. East Asia contains three main ethnic groups: Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. The Indian subcontinent is home to a vast diversity of peoples, most of whom speak languages from the Indo-Aryan subgroup of the Indo-European family. Because of the influence of China and the former Soviet Union, the Mandarin Chinese dialect and the Russian language are used widely. Asia is the birthplace of all the world's major religions and hundreds of minor ones. Hinduism is the oldest major religion to have originated in southern Asia; Jainism and Buddhism emerged in the 6th and 5th centuries BC, respectively. Southwest Asia was the cradle of the so-called Abrahamic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Daoism and Confucianism, both of which originated in the 6th or 5th century BC, have profoundly influenced Chinese culture and the cultures of surrounding peoples. Asia is marked by great disparities in wealth. A few countries, notably Japan, Singapore, and the oil-rich countries of the Arabian Peninsula, have attained high standards of living; others, such as Bangladesh and Myanmar, are among the poorest. Between these two extremes lie Russia, China, and India. Asia is a land of great cultural diversity, but there are five main cultural influences: Chinese, Indian, Islamic, European, and Central Asian. China has had great influence in East Asia as the source of Confucianism, artistic styles, and the Chinese writing system. Indian influence has been expressed through Hinduism and Buddhism, affecting the Tibet Autonomous Region of China, Indonesia, Cambodia, and Central Asia. Islam spread from its original Arabian home to become important in the Middle East, South Asia, Central Asia, and elsewhere.

the Philippines is a country of diverse cultures although some cultures have similarities with other cultures.\n\nThere are six groups:\n\nHispanic - The majority of the population comprising about 72% of the population. They are mainly Christians and because Spain ruled the Philippines, the Hispanic Filipinos were greatly influenced by Latin America and Spain. But still on the core, they are Asians, retaining their indigenous Malay root culture and significant influences from Hinduism and Taoism. These group have 11 ethno-linguistic groups.\n\nMuslim - They are also known as Moros, a term assigned to them by the Spaniards after the Islamic Moors who ruled Spain for some time. They comprise about 20% of the population. Unlike their Christian or Hispanic brothers, their culture is still greatly influenced by their first religions: Animism, Hinduism and Taoism, evethough they are brutally converted to Islam by the Arab traders from Indonesia, Brunei and Malaysia. Many of them have some admixture of Arabic blood. These groiup have 10 ethno-linguistic groups.\n\nTribal - they are the hereditaries of true Philippine culture becuase they are never influenced by the Hindu and Taoist traders, the Muslim missionaries and the Spanish colonists. These group although only 2% of the population composed of 65 ethno-linguistic groups, each comprise of scattered clans all around the Philippine archipelago.\n\nChinese - They came here to the Philippines and introduced their religion Taoism and it came to mingle with the indigenous animistic religions of different ethnic groups. Many of them married locals and gave birth to a breed called "Tsinoy". They comprise 2% of the population.\n\nIndians - Like the Chinese, they came here as traders. They introduced the religion Hinduism which also mingled with the local religions. Many of them also married locals and their breeds are called "Sepoys". They comprise 2% of the population.\n\nSpaniards - They were the descendants of the creoles, Philippine-born Spaniards who never came back to Spain. They also married many Filipina women and their breed are commonly called "Mestizos". They comprise 3% of the population.\n\n\nAlthough the Philippines maybe a one country, it has many ethno-linguistic groups who are still proud of their ethnic group and boasting it to other ethnic groups even fellow christians, muslims etc. A muslim group, the Tausug, are struggling to form a separate nation, although they are the only muslims who likes to. They end up terrorizing and bombing malls and other buildings all over the Philippines because they are still under the Philippines. They even hate their fellow muslims, those of the other ethnic groups, thinking of them as traitors because these other muslim groups are cooperating with the christian majority.\n\n\ni hope you understand what i've said. :p

i'm guessing that Rizal was shot so it doesn't matter (even if you had a time machine because anything you do in the past would have had to already happened in the past so you couldn't possibly change history thus fate must exist if time machines ever exist or you just mess up history)

Try not to get hung up on race and the idea of being mixed, as long as humans have inhabited Earth pretty much every race has been mixed in one form or another, that is how so many races have come into existences. My father's last name is Williams but we're not Germanic-Austrian. But for your peace of mind: Navarro is originally Italian, and in the late 10th century Spaniard families began to don this as a surname. The reason why many Filipino families have this name is because when Portuguese and Spanish travelers came to the Philippines, the travelers gave their names to the slaves and families that were in their possession.\nPeace.

no.\n\nTruth: Jose Rizal was in London in July - September 1888. Hitler’s mother lived and remained in Austria which is 1,135 km., away. Considering the distance, it is completely impossible for Rizal, to have fathered Hitler.

asia is multi racial. singapore for example is home to malay, chinese and indi. i doubt if asia will be "globally-multi racial" in the future.

He's an American and I believe that he comes from a multi-racial family.  I have read an article that states which parent is what race but I can't remember when or where.

Does it matter?  I think of Jesus as an olive-skinned man with brown eyes and dark hair, because he was born in Bethlehem, a district in a Middle Eastern country.  The fact that I have blue eyes and fair hair doesn't make me want to claim him as having that description.  Can't we all agree that Jesus was/is all things to all men?

One of the leaders that fought against Spanish rule in the Philippines was Andres Bonifacio he headed the KKK (Kataastaasan Kagalanggalangan ng Katipunan). Among over revolutionaries were Apolinario Mabini (the Brains of the Katipunan) and Tangdang Sora (the Mother of the Katipunan). Andres Bonificio was from the masses and had different opinions in terms of how to fight against the Spaniards from those of Jose Rizal. Jose Rizal preferred a bloodless revolution but the KKK wanted an all out revolt.
